Abstract

Let T = (T-1, ... T-n) be a commuting n-tuple of operators on a Hilbert space H, and let T-i equivalent to ViP (1 <= i <= n) be its canonical joint polar decomposition (i.e. P := root T-1*T-1+ ... + T-n*T-n, (V-1,..., V-n) a joint partial isometry, and boolean AND(n)(i-1) ker T-i = boolean AND(n)(i-1) ker V-i = ker P). The spherical Aluthge transform of T is the (necessarily commuting) n-tuple (T) over cap := (root PV1 root P, ..., root PVn, root P). We prove that sigma(T)((T) over cap) = sigma(T)(T), where sigma(T) denotes the Taylor spectrum. We do this in two stages: away from the origin, we use tools and techniques from criss-cross commutativity; at the origin, we show that the left invertibility of T or (T) over cap implies the invertibility of P. As a consequence, we can readily extend our main result to other spectral systems that rely on the Koszul complex for their definitions. (C) 2019 Academie des sciences.
