Triangular and Jordan Representations of Linear Operators (Translations of Mathematical Monographs)

Determining the invariant subspaces of any given transformation and writing the transformation as an integral in terms of invariant subspaces is a fundamental problem. This book presents the foundations of the theory of triangular and Jordan representations of bounded linear operators in Hilbert space and solves the problem in the case of completely continuous transformations. The reader is assumed to know the basics of linear operator theory.
