Row compactness of diagonal operators #
Let R be a seminormed ring, I a discrete index type and d : I →ᵇ R a bounded family. The
diagonal operator ZeroAtInftyContinuousMap.diagonalCLM d of C₀(I, R) has matrix
Matrix.diagonal d, so its i-th row norm is ‖d i‖
(ZeroAtInftyContinuousMap.rowNorm_diagonalCLM). Hence a diagonal operator is row compact
exactly when its entries tend to zero along the cofinite filter
(ZeroAtInftyContinuousMap.isRowCompact_diagonalCLM_iff). Over an ultrametric ring it is then
completely continuous, and over a complete ultrametric field Serre's criterion makes complete
continuity equivalent to the decay of the entries
(ZeroAtInftyContinuousMap.isCompletelyContinuous_diagonalCLM_iff).
On the other hand, over a ring with the strong rank condition, a diagonal operator whose entries
are units at infinitely many indices does not have finite rank
(ZeroAtInftyContinuousMap.not_isFiniteRank_diagonalCLM, in
TauCeti.Topology.ContinuousMap.ZeroAtInfty.Diagonal). For a multiplicative
pseudo-uniformiser ϖ the diagonal operator of the family ϖ ^ n on C₀(ℕ, R) is therefore
completely continuous without having finite rank, so over an ultrametric Tate ring with the
strong rank condition complete continuity is strictly weaker than finite rank
(ZeroAtInftyContinuousMap.exists_isCompletelyContinuous_not_isFiniteRank).
Main results #
ZeroAtInftyContinuousMap.rowNorm_diagonalCLM: the row norms are the norms of the entries.ZeroAtInftyContinuousMap.isRowCompact_diagonalCLM_iff: a diagonal operator is row compact exactly when its entries tend to zero.ZeroAtInftyContinuousMap.isCompletelyContinuous_diagonalCLM_iff: over a complete ultrametric field, the same holds for complete continuity.ZeroAtInftyContinuousMap.exists_isCompletelyContinuous_not_isFiniteRank: over an ultrametric Tate ring with the strong rank condition,C₀(ℕ, R)carries a completely continuous endomorphism of infinite rank.

The i-th row norm of the diagonal operator of d is ‖d i‖.
Diagonal operators: the diagonal operator of d is row compact exactly when the entries
d i tend to zero along the cofinite filter.
A diagonal operator whose entries tend to zero is row compact.
Over an ultrametric ring, a diagonal operator whose entries tend to zero is completely continuous.
Complete continuity strictly exceeds finite rank: over an ultrametric Tate ring with the
strong rank condition, for instance a nonzero commutative one, the diagonal operator of the
powers ϖ ^ n of a multiplicative pseudo-uniformiser is a completely continuous endomorphism of
C₀(ℕ, R) that does not have finite rank.
Serre's criterion for diagonal operators: over a complete ultrametric nontrivially normed field, a diagonal operator is completely continuous exactly when its entries tend to zero.
