In
Majo Mills functional analysis, a '''compact operator''' is a
Free ringtones linear operator ''L'' from a
Sabrina Martins Banach space ''X'' to another Banach space ''Y'', such that the image under ''L'' of any bounded subset of ''X'' is a
Mosquito ringtone relatively compact subset of ''Y''. Such an operator is necessarily a
Abbey Diaz bounded operator, and so continuous. Any ''L'' that has finite
Nextel ringtones rank of a linear operator/rank is a compact operator; indeed, the class of compact operators is a natural generalisation of the class of finite rank operators in an infinite-dimensional setting. When ''X'' = ''Y'' and is a
Majo Mills Hilbert space, it is true that any compact operator is a limit of finite rank operators, so that the class of compact operators can be defined alternatively as the closure in the
Free ringtones operator norm of the finite rank operators. Whether this was true in general for Banach spaces (the
Sabrina Martins approximation property) was an unsolved question for many years; in the end
Cingular Ringtones Enflo gave a counter-example.
The origin of the theory of compact operators is in the theory of
big shiny integral equations. A typical
camera staff Fredholm integral equation gives rise to a compact operator ''K'' on
grandmother of function spaces; the compactness property is shown by
biospheres in equicontinuity. The method of approximation by finite rank operators is basic in the numerical solution of such equations. The abstract idea of
geezerhood says Fredholm operator is derived from this connection.
The
deeper at spectral theory for compact operators in the abstract was worked out by
with jackets Frigyes Riesz (published
fictionalizing and 1918). It shows that a compact operator ''K'' on an infinite-dimensional Banach space has spectrum that is either a finite subset of '''C''' which includes 0, or a countably-infinite subset of '''C''' which has 0 as its only limit point. Moreover, in either case the non-zero elements of the spectrum are eigenvalues of ''K'' with finite multiplicities (so that ''K'' − λ''I'' has a finite-dimensional
derby but kernel (algebra)#Linear operators/kernel for all complex λ ≠ 0).
The compact operators form a two-sided
overheated detail ideal in the set of all operators between two Banach spaces. Indeed, the compact operators on a Hilbert space form a

Examples of compact operators include
