Let be a Banach space and let be a bounded linear map.
(a) Define the spectrum , the resolvent set and the point spectrum of .
(b) What does it mean for to be a compact operator?
(c) Show that if is a compact operator on and , then has at most finitely many linearly independent eigenvectors with eigenvalues having modulus larger than .
[You may use without proof the fact that for any finite dimensional proper subspace of a Banach space , there exists with and .]
(d) For a sequence of complex numbers, let be defined by
Give necessary and sufficient conditions on the sequence for to be compact, and prove your assertion.
