The fine spectra of lower triangular triple-band matrices have been examined by several authors (e.g., Akhmedov (2006), BasΜ§ar (2007), and Furken et al. (2010)). Here we determine the fine spectra of upper triangular triple-band matrices over the sequence space βπ . The operator π΄(π, π , π‘) on sequence space on βπ is defined by π΄(π, π , π‘)π₯ = (ππ₯π + π π₯π+1 + π‘π₯π+2 )∞ π=0 , where π₯ = (π₯π ) ∈ βπ , with 0 < π < ∞. In this paper we have obtained the results on the spectrum and point spectrum for the operator π΄(π, π , π‘) on the sequence space βπ . Further, the results on continuous spectrum, residual spectrum, and fine spectrum of the operator π΄(π, π , π‘) on the sequence space βπ are also derived. Additionally, we give the approximate point spectrum, defect spectrum, and compression spectrum of the matrix operator π΄(π, π , π‘) over the space βπ and we give some applications. 1. Introduction In functional analysis, the spectrum of an operator generalizes the notion of eigenvalues for matrices. The spectrum of an operator over a Banach space is partitioned into three parts, which are the point spectrum, the continuous spectrum, and the residual spectrum. The calculation of these three parts of the spectrum of an operator is called calculating the fine spectrum of the operator. Over the years and different names the spectrum and fine spectra of linear operators defined by some triangle matrices over certain sequence spaces were studied. By π we denote the space of all complex-valued sequences. Any vector subspace of π is called a sequence space. We write β∞ , π, π0 , and ππ£ for the spaces of all bounded, convergent, null, and bounded variation sequences, respectively, which are the Banach spaces with the sup-norm βπ₯β∞ = supπ∈N |π₯π | and βπ₯βππ£ = ∑∞ π=0 |π₯π − π₯π+1 |, respectively, where N = {0, 1, 2, . . .}. Also by β1 and βπ we denote the spaces of all absolutely summable and π-absolutely summable sequences, which are the Banach spaces with the norm βπ₯βπ = 1/π π (∑∞ π=0 |π₯π | ) , respectively, where 1 β©½ π < ∞. Several authors studied the spectrum and fine spectrum of linear operators defined by some triangle matrices over some sequence spaces. We introduce knowledge in the existing literature concerning the spectrum and the fine spectrum. CesaΜro operator of order one on the sequence space βπ was studied by GonzaΜlez [1], where 1 < π < ∞. Also, weighted mean matrices of operators on βπ have been investigated by Cartlidge [2]. The spectrum of the CesaΜro operator of order one on the sequence spaces ππ£0 and ππ£ were investigated by Okutoyi [3, 4]. The spectrum and fine spectrum of the Rally operators on the sequence space βπ were examined by YΔ±ldΔ±rΔ±m [5]. The fine spectrum of the difference operator Δ over the sequence spaces π0 and π was studied by Altay and BasΜ§ar [6]. The same authors also worked out the fine spectrum of the generalized difference operator π΅(π, π ) over π0 and π, in [7]. Recently, the fine spectra of the difference operator Δ over the sequence spaces π0 and π have been studied by Akhmedov and BasΜ§ar [8, 9], where ππ£π is the space consisting of the sequences π₯ = (π₯π ) such that π₯ = (π₯π − π₯π−1 ) ∈ βπ and introduced by BasΜ§ar and Altay [10] with 1 β©½ π β©½ ∞. In the recent paper, Furkan et al. [11] have studied the fine spectrum of π΅(π, π , π‘) over the sequence spaces βπ and ππ£π 2 Abstract and Applied Analysis with 1 < π < ∞, where π΅(π, π , π‘) is a lower triangular tripleband matrix. Later, Karakaya and Altun have determined the fine spectra of upper triangular double-band matrices over the sequence spaces π0 and π, in [12]. Quite recently, Karaisa [13] has determined the fine spectrum of the generalized difference operator π΄(Μπ, π Μ), defined as an upper triangular double-band matrix with the convergent sequences πΜ = (ππ ) and π Μ = (π π ) having certain properties, over the sequence space βπ , where 1 < π < ∞. In this paper, we study the fine spectrum of the generalized difference operator π΄(π, π , π‘) defined by a triple sequential band matrix acting on the sequence space βπ (0 < π < ∞), with respect to Goldberg’s classification. Additionally, we give the approximate point spectrum and defect spectrum and give some applications. 2. Preliminaries, Background, and Notation Let π and π be two Banach spaces and π : π → π be a bounded linear operator. By π (π) we denote range of π, that is, π (π) = {π¦ ∈ π : π¦ = ππ₯, π₯ ∈ π} . (1) By π΅(π) we also denote the set of all bounded linear operators on π into itself. If π ∈ π΅(π) then the adjoint π∗ of π is a bounded linear operator on the dual π∗ of π defined by (π∗ π)(π₯) = π(ππ₯) for all π ∈ π∗ and π₯ ∈ π. Let π =ΜΈ {π} be a complex normed space and π : π·(π) → π be a linear operator with domain π·(π) ⊆ π. With π we associate the operator ππΌ = π − πΌπΌ, where πΌ is a complex number and πΌ is the identity operator on π·(π). If ππΌ has an inverse which is linear, we denote it by ππΌ−1 , that is, ππΌ−1 = (π − πΌπΌ)−1 (2) and call it the resolvent operator of π. Many properties of ππΌ and ππΌ−1 depend on πΌ, and spectral theory is concerned with those properties. For instance, we shall be interested in the set of all πΌ in the complex plane such that ππΌ−1 exists. The boundedness of ππΌ−1 is another property that will be essential. We shall also ask for what πΌ the domain of ππΌ−1 is dense in π, to name just a few aspects For our investigation of π, ππΌ , and ππΌ−1 , we need some basic concepts in spectral theory which are given as follows (see [14, pp. 370371]). Let π =ΜΈ {π} be a complex normed space and π : π·(π) → π be a linear operator with domain π·(π) ⊆ π. A regular value πΌ of π is a complex number such that (R1) (R2) (R3) ππΌ−1 ππΌ−1 ππΌ−1 exists, is bounded, is defined on a set which is dense in π. The resolvent set π(π) of π is the set of all regular values πΌ of π. Its complement C \ π(π) in the complex plane C is called the spectrum of π. Furthermore, the spectrum π(π) is partitioned into three disjoint sets as follows. The point spectrum ππ (π) is the set such that ππΌ−1 does not exist. πΌ ∈ ππ (π) is called an eigenvalue of π. The continuous spectrum ππ (π) is the set such that ππΌ−1 exists and satisfies (R3) but not (R2). The residual spectrum ππ (π) is the set such that ππΌ−1 exists but does not satisfy (R3). In this section, following Appell et al. [15], we define the three more subdivisions of the spectrum called the approximate point spectrum, defect spectrum, and compression spectrum. Given a bounded linear operator π in a Banach space π, we call a sequence (π₯π ) in π as a Weyl sequence for π if βπ₯π β = 1 and βππ₯π β → 0, as π → ∞. In what follows, we call the set πap (π, π) := {πΌ ∈ C : there exists a Weyl sequence for πΌπΌ−π} (3) the approximate point spectrum of π. Moreover, the subspectrum ππΏ (π, π) := {πΌ ∈ C : πΌπΌ − π is not surjective} (4) is called defect spectrum of π. The two subspectra given by (3) and (4) form a (not necessarily disjoint) subdivisions π (π, π) = πap (π, π) ∪ ππΏ (π, π) (5) of the spectrum. There is another subspectrum πco (π, π) = {πΌ ∈ C : π (πΌπΌ − π) =ΜΈ π} (6) which is often called compression spectrum in the literature. By the definitions given above, we can illustrate the subdivisions of spectrum in Table 1. From Goldberg [16] if π ∈ π΅(π), π a Banach space, then there are three possibilities for π (π): (I) π (π) = π, (II) π (π) =ΜΈ π (π) = π, (III) π (π) =ΜΈ π, and three possibilities for π−1 : (1) π−1 exists and is continuous, (2) π−1 exists but is discontinuous, (3) π−1 does not exist. If these possibilities are combined in all possible ways, nine different states are created. These are labelled by πΌ1 , πΌ2 , πΌ3 , πΌπΌ1 , πΌπΌ2 , πΌπΌ3 , πΌπΌπΌ1 , πΌπΌπΌ2 and πΌπΌπΌ3 . If πΌ is a complex number such that ππΌ ∈ πΌ1 or ππΌ ∈ πΌπΌ1 , then πΌ is in the resolvent set π(π, π) of π. The further classification gives rise to the fine spectrum of π. If an operator is in state πΌπΌ2 , for example, then π (π) =ΜΈ π (π) = π and π−1 exists but is discontinuous and we write πΌ ∈ πΌπΌ2 π(π, π). Let π and πΎ be two sequence spaces and let π΄ = (πππ ) be an infinite matrix of real or complex numbers πππ , where π, π ∈ N = {0, 1, 2, . . .}. Then, we say that π΄ defines a matrix Abstract and Applied Analysis 3 mapping from π into πΎ and we denote it by writing π΄ : π → πΎ if for every sequence π₯ = (π₯π ) ∈ π the sequence π΄π₯ = {(π΄π₯)π }, the π΄-transform of π₯ is in πΎ, where (π΄π₯)π = ∑πππ π₯π for each π ∈ N. π (7) By (π : πΎ), we denote the class of all matrices π΄ such that π΄ : π → πΎ. Thus, π΄ ∈ (π : πΎ) if and only if the series on the right side of (7) converges for each π ∈ N and every π₯ ∈ π, and we have π΄π₯ = {(π΄π₯)π }π∈N ∈ πΎ for all π₯ ∈ π. Proposition 1 (see [15, Proposition 1.3, p. 28]). Spectra and subspectra of an operator π ∈ π΅(π) and its adjoint π∗ ∈ π΅(π∗ ) are related by the following relations: 3. Fine Spectra of Upper Triangular Triple-Band Matrices over the Sequence Space βπ (0 < π β©½ 1) In this section, we prove that the operator π΄(π, π , π‘) : βπ → βπ is a bounded linear operator and compute its norm. We essentially emphasize the fine spectrum of the operator π΄(π, π , π‘) : βπ → βπ in the case 0 < π β©½ 1. Theorem 4. The operator π΄(π, π , π‘) : βπ → βπ is a bounded linear operator and βπ΄ (π, π , π‘)β(βπ :βπ ) = |π|π + |π |π + |π‘|π . (10) (d) ππΏ (π∗ , π∗ ) = πap (π, π), Proof. Since the linearity of the operator π΄(π, π , π‘) is trivial, so it is omitted. Let us take π(2) ∈ βπ . Then π΄(π, π , π‘)π(2) = (π‘, π , π, 0, . . .) and observe that σ΅©σ΅© σ΅© σ΅©σ΅©π΄ (π, π , π‘) π(2) σ΅©σ΅©σ΅© σ΅© σ΅©π = |π|π + |π |π + |π‘|π βπ΄ (π, π , π‘)β(βπ :βπ ) β©Ύ σ΅©σ΅© (2) σ΅©σ΅© σ΅©σ΅©π σ΅©σ΅©π (11) (e) ππ (π∗ , π∗ ) = πco (π, π), which gives the fact that (a) π(π∗ , π∗ ) = π(π, π), (b) ππ (π∗ , π∗ ) ⊆ πap (π, π), (c) πap (π∗ , π∗ ) = ππΏ (π, π), ∗ ∗ βπ΄ (π, π , π‘)β(βπ : βπ ) β©Ύ |π|π + |π |π + |π‘|π . (f) πco (π , π ) ⊇ ππ (π, π), ∗ ∗ (g) π(π, π) = πap (π, π) ∪ ππ (π , π ) = ππ (π, π) ∪ πap (π∗ , π∗ ). The relations (c)–(f) show that the approximate point spectrum is in a certain sense dual to defect spectrum and the point spectrum dual to the compression spectrum. The equality (g) implies, in particular, that π(π, π) = πap (π, π) if π is a Hilbert space and π is normal. Roughly speaking, this shows that normal (in particular, self-adjoint) operators on Hilbert spaces are most similar to matrices in finite dimensional spaces (see [15]). Lemma 2 (see [16, p. 60]). The adjoint operator π∗ of π is onto if and only if π has a bounded inverse. Lemma 3 (see [16, p. 59]). π has a dense range if and only if π∗ is one to one. Our main focus in this paper is on the triple-band matrix π΄(π, π , π‘), where π [0 [ [ π΄ (π, π , π‘) = [0 [0 [ .. [. π π 0 0 .. . π‘ π π 0 .. . 0 π‘ π π .. . ... . . .] ] . . .] ]. . . .] ] .. .] (8) ∞ where π₯ = (π₯π ) ∈ βπ . Let π₯ = (π₯π ) ∈ βπ , where 0 < π β©½ 1. Then, since (π‘π₯π+2 ), (ππ₯π ), and (π π₯π+1 ) ∈ βπ , it is easy to see by triangle inequality that ∞ σ΅¨ σ΅¨π βπ΄ (π, π , π‘) π₯βπ = ∑ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ππ₯π + π π₯π+1 + π‘π₯π+2 σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ π=0 ∞ ∞ ∞ π=0 π=0 π=0 σ΅¨ σ΅¨π σ΅¨ σ΅¨π σ΅¨ σ΅¨π β©½ ∑ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ππ₯π σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ + ∑ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨π π₯π+1 σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ + ∑ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨π‘π₯π+2 σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ ∞ ∞ ∞ π=0 π=0 π=0 σ΅¨ σ΅¨π σ΅¨ σ΅¨π σ΅¨ σ΅¨π = |π|π ∑ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨π₯π σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ + |π |π ∑ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨π₯π+1 σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ + |π‘|π ∑ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨π₯π+2 σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ = |π |π βπ₯βπ + |π|π βπ₯βπ + |π‘|π βπ₯βπ = (|π|π + |π |π + |π‘|π ) βπ₯βπ (13) which leads us to the result that βπ΄ (π, π , π‘)β(βπ : βπ ) β©½ |π|π + |π |π + |π‘|π . (14) Therefore, by combining the inequalities (12) and (14) we see that (10) holds which completes the proof. We assume here and after that π and π‘ are complex parameters which do not simultaneously vanish. We introduce the introduce the operator π΄(π, π , π‘) from βπ to itself by π΄ (π, π , π‘) π₯ = (ππ₯π + π π₯π+1 + π‘π₯π+2 )π=0 , (12) (9) If π : βπ → βπ is a bounded matrix operator with the matrix π΄, then it is known that the adjoint operator π∗ : βπ∗ → βπ∗ is defined by the transpose of the matrix π΄. The dual space of βπ is isomorphic to β∞ , where 0 < π < 1. Before giving the main theorem of this section, we should note the following remark. In this work, here and in what follows, if π§ is a complex number, then by √π§ we always mean the square root of π§ with a nonnegative real part. If Re(√π§) = 0, then √π§ represents the square root of π§ with Im(√π§) > 0. The same results are obtained if √π§ represents the other square root. 4 Abstract and Applied Analysis Table 1: Subdivisions of spectrum of a linear operator. 1 ππΌ−1 exists and is bounded 2 ππΌ−1 exists and is unbounded — A π (πΌπΌ − π) = π πΌ ∈ π(π, π) B π (πΌπΌ − π) = π πΌ ∈ π(π, π) π (πΌπΌ − π) =ΜΈ π πΌ ∈ ππ (π, π) πΌ ∈ ππΏ (π, π) C πΌ ∈ ππ (π, π) πΌ ∈ πap (π, π) πΌ ∈ ππΏ (π, π) πΌ ∈ ππ (π, π) πΌ ∈ πap (π, π) πΌ ∈ ππΏ (π, π) πΌ ∈ πco (π, π) πΌ ∈ πco (π, π) Theorem 5.

(37) The same result may be obtained in case Δ = 0. Now π₯ = (π₯π ) ∈ βπ , since |π₯1 | < 1. This shows that π·2 ⊆ ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ). 6 Abstract and Applied Analysis Now we assume that πΌ ∉ π·2 , that is, |π 1 | β©½ 1. We must show that πΌ ∉ ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ). Therefore we obtain from the relation (35) that −π₯0 + (ππ /ππ−1 ) π₯1 π₯π+1 π − πΌ ππ−1 =( ( ). ) π₯π π‘ ππ−2 −π₯0 + (ππ−1 /ππ−2 ) π₯1 ππ (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ ) = 0. (46) This completes the proof. 2 Case 1 (|π 2 | < |π 1 | β©½ 1). In this case we have π =ΜΈ 4π‘(π − πΌ) and π+1 (39) Theorem 9.

In this case we have π 2 = 4π‘(π−πΌ) and so we have | − π /(2π‘)| = 1. Assume that πΌ ∈ ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ). This implies that π₯ ∈ βπ and π₯ =ΜΈ π. Thus we again derive (35) −π ) 2π‘ π−1 [− (π − 1) −π π₯ + ππ₯1 ] . 2π‘ 0 (45) Since limπ → ∞ π₯π = 0, we must have π₯0 = π₯1 = 0. But this implies that π₯ = π, a contradiction which means that πΌ ∉ ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ). Thus ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) ⊆ π·2 . This completes the proof. Theorem 8. ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = 0. Since the spectrum of any bounded operator is closed, we have σ΅¨σ΅¨ σ΅¨σ΅¨ {πΌ ∈ C : 2 |π − πΌ| β©½ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨−π + √π 2 − 4π‘ (π − πΌ)σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨} σ΅¨ σ΅¨ (49) ⊆ π (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ ) π (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ ) ⊆ {πΌ ∈ C : 2 |π − πΌ| σ΅¨σ΅¨ σ΅¨σ΅¨ β©½ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨−π + √π 2 − 4π‘ (π − πΌ)σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨} . σ΅¨ σ΅¨ (50) Combining (49) and (50), we obtain that π(π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = π·1 , where π·1 is defined by (47). we obtain that σ΅¨σ΅¨ π σ΅¨σ΅¨π σ΅¨σ΅¨ −π σ΅¨σ΅¨π σ΅¨σ΅¨ σ΅¨ σ΅¨ σ΅¨ σ΅¨ σ΅¨π lim σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ π σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ = σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ σ΅¨ = σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨π 1 σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ π → ∞σ΅¨ π σ΅¨σ΅¨ 2 (π − πΌ) σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ σ΅¨ π−1 σ΅¨σ΅¨ (48) and again from Theorems 5, 7, and 8, Case 2 (|π 2 | = |π 1 | < 1). In this case we have π 2 = 4π‘(π − πΌ) and using the formula π₯π = ( ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘)∗ , βπ∗ ) = 0, (38) Now we examine three cases. π 1 [1 − (π 2 /π 1 ) ] ππ+1 − ππ+1 ππ 2 . = 1π = π π ππ−1 π1 − π2 [1 − (π 2 /π 1 ) ] Proof. By Proposition 1, ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘)∗ , βπ∗ ) \ ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ). Since by Theorem 6, Theorem 10. ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = π·3 , where π·3 = {πΌ ∈ C : 2|π − πΌ| = | − π + √π 2 − 4π‘(π − πΌ)|}. Proof. Because the parts ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ), ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ), and ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) are pairwise disjoint sets and the union of these sets is π(π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ), the proof immediately follows from Theorems 7, 8, and 9. Theorem 11. If πΌ ∈ π·2 , πΌ ∈ π(π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ )πΌ3 . Proof. From Theorem 7, πΌ ∈ ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ). Thus, (π΄(π, π , π‘) − πΌπΌ)−1 does not exist. By Theorem 6π΄(π, π , π‘)∗ − πΌπΌ is one to one, so π΄(π, π , π‘) − πΌπΌ has a dense range in βπ by Lemma 3. Theorem 12. The following statements hold: (i) πap (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = π·1 , (ii) ππΏ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = π·3 , (iii) πco (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = 0. Abstract and Applied Analysis 7 Proof. (i) Since from Table 1, πap (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ) = π (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ)\π (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ) πΌπΌπΌ1 , (51) we have by Theorem 8 π (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ ) πΌπΌπΌ1 = π (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ ) πΌπΌπΌ2 = 0. (52) Proof. Since the linearity of the operator π΄(π, π , π‘) is not hard, we omit the details. Now we prove that (56) holds for the operator π΄(π, π , π‘) on the space βπ . It is trivial that π΄(π, π , π‘)π(2) = (π‘, π , π, 0, . . .) for π(2) ∈ βπ . Therefore, we have σ΅©σ΅©σ΅©π΄ (π, π , π‘) π(2) σ΅©σ΅©σ΅© σ΅©σ΅©π σ΅©σ΅© 1/π = (|π|π + |π |π + |π‘|π ) βπ΄ (π, π , π‘)β(βπ :βπ ) β©Ύ σ΅©σ΅© (2) σ΅©σ΅© σ΅©σ΅©π σ΅©σ΅©π (57) which implies that Hence πap (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ ) = π·1 . (53) (ii) Since the following equality ππΏ (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ ) = π (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ ) \ π (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ ) πΌ3 (54) holds from Table 1, we derive by Theorems 8 and 11 that ππΏ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = π·2 . (iii) From Table 1, we have 1/π βπ΄ (π, π , π‘)β(βπ :βπ ) β©Ύ (|π|π + |s|π + |π‘|π ) βπ΄ (π, π , π‘) π₯βπ 1/π ∞ σ΅¨ σ΅¨π = ( ∑ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ππ₯π + π π₯π+1 + π‘π₯π+2 σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ ) π=0 σ΅¨ σ΅¨π β©½ ( ∑ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ππ₯π σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ ) 1/π π=0 = π (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ ) πΌπΌπΌ1 ∪ π (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ ) πΌπΌπΌ2 (55) ∪ π (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , π0 ) πΌπΌπΌ3 . By Theorem 6 it is immediate that πco (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = 0. 4. Fine Spectra of Upper Triangular Triple-Band Matrices over the Sequence Space βπ (1 < π < ∞) In the present section, we determine the fine spectrum of the operator π΄(π, π , π‘) : βπ → βπ in case 1 β©½ π < ∞. We quote some lemmas which are needed in proving the theorems given in Section 4. Lemma 13 (see [17, p. 253, Theorem 34.16]). The matrix π΄ = (πππ ) gives rise to a bounded linear operator π ∈ π΅(β1 ) from β1 to itself if and only if the supremum of β1 norms of the columns of π΄ is bounded. Lemma 14 (see [17, p. 245, Theorem 34.3]). The matrix π΄ = (πππ ) gives rise to a bounded linear operator π ∈ π΅(β∞ ) from β∞ to itself if and only if the supremum of β1 norms of the rows of π΄ is bounded. Lemma 15 (see [17, p. 254, Theorem 34.18]). Let 1 < π < ∞ and π΄ ∈ (β∞ : β∞ ) ∩ (β1 : β1 ). Then, π΄ ∈ (βπ : βπ ). Theorem 16. The operator π΄(π, π , π‘) : βπ → βπ is a bounded linear operator and 1/π (|π|π + |π |π + |π‘|π ) β©½ βπ΄ (π, π , π‘)β(βπ :βπ ) β©½ |π| + |π | + |π‘| . (56) (58) Let π₯ = (π₯π ) ∈ βπ , where 1 < π < ∞. Then, since (π‘π₯π+2 ), (ππ₯π ), and (π π₯π+1 ) ∈ βπ , it is easy to see by Minkowski’s inequality that ∞ πco (π΄ (π, π , π‘) , βπ ) . 1/π ∞ σ΅¨ σ΅¨π + ( ∑ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨π π₯π+1 σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ ) π=0 ∞ σ΅¨ σ΅¨π + ( ∑ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨π‘π₯π+2 σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ ) 1/π (59) π=0 1/π ∞ σ΅¨ σ΅¨π = |π| ( ∑ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨π₯π σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ ) π=0 ∞ ∞ σ΅¨ σ΅¨π + |π | ( ∑ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨π₯π+1 σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ ) σ΅¨ σ΅¨π + |π‘| ( ∑ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨π₯π+2 σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ ) 1/π π=0 1/π π=0 = |π | βπ₯βπ + |π| βπ₯βπ + |π‘| βπ₯βπ = (|π| + |π | + |π‘|) βπ₯βπ which leads us to the result that 1/π (|π|π + |π |π + |π‘|π ) β©½ βπ΄ (π, π , π‘)β(βπ :βπ ) β©½ |π| + |π | + |π‘| . (60) Therefore, by combining the inequalities in (58) and (59) we have (56), as desired. If π : βπ → βπ is a bounded matrix operator with the matrix π΄, then it is known that the adjoint operator π∗ : βπ∗ → βπ∗ is defined by the transpose of the matrix π΄. The dual space of βπ is isomorphic to βπ , where 1 < π < ∞. Theorem 17. Let π be a complex number such that √π 2 = −π and define the set π·1 by σ΅¨σ΅¨ σ΅¨σ΅¨ π·1 = {πΌ ∈ C : 2 |π − πΌ| β©½ σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨−π + √π 2 − 4π‘ (π − πΌ)σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨} . σ΅¨ σ΅¨ (61) Then, ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) ⊆ π·1 . 8 Abstract and Applied Analysis Proof. We will show that π΄ πΌ (π, π , π‘)∗ is onto, for 2|π − πΌ| > | − π + √π 2 − 4π‘(π − πΌ)|. Thus, for every π¦ ∈ βπ , we find π₯ ∈ βπ . π΄ πΌ (π, π , π‘)∗ is a triangle so it has an inverse. Also equation π΄ πΌ (π, π , π‘)∗ π₯ = π¦ gives [π΄ πΌ (π, π , π‘)∗ ]−1 π¦ = π₯. It is sufficient to show that [π΄ πΌ (π, π , π‘)∗ ]−1 ∈ (βπ : βπ ). We calculate that π΄ = (πππ ) = [π΄ πΌ (π, π , π‘)∗ ]−1 as follows: π1 [π2 [ π΄ = (πππ ) = [π3 [ .. [. 0 π1 π2 .. . 0 0 π1 .. . ... . . .] ] , . . .] ] .. .] Hence, π΄ πΌ (π, π , π‘)∗ is onto. By Lemma 2, π΄ πΌ (π, π , π‘) has a bounded inverse. This means that ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) ⊆ π·1 , where π·1 is defined by (61). Theorem 18. ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘)∗ , βπ∗ ) = 0. Proof. Let π΄(π, π , π‘)∗ π = πΌπ with π =ΜΈ π = (0, 0, 0, . . .) in βπ∗ = βπ . Then, by solving the system of linear equations ππ0 = πΌπ0 , π π0 + ππ1 = πΌπ1 , (62) π‘π0 + π π1 + ππ2 = πΌπ2 , where π‘π1 + π π2 + ππ3 = πΌπ3 , 1 π1 = , π−πΌ −π , π2 = (π − πΌ)2 π3 = π‘ππ−2 + π ππ−1 + πππ = πΌππ , π − π‘ (π − πΌ) , (π − πΌ)3 we find that π0 = 0 if πΌ =ΜΈ π and π1 = π2 = ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ = 0 if π0 = 0 which contradicts π =ΜΈ π. If ππ0 is the first nonzero entry of the sequence π = (ππ ) and πΌ = π, then we get π‘ππ0 −2 + π ππ0 −1 + πππ0 = πΌππ0 which implies ππ0 = 0 which contradicts the assumption ππ0 =ΜΈ 0. Hence, the equation π΄(π, π , π‘)∗ π = πΌπ has no solution π =ΜΈ π. It is known that from Theorem 5 ππ1 − ππ2 √π 2 − 4π‘ (π − πΌ) where π 1 = , ∀π β©Ύ 1, −π + √Δ , π−πΌ π2 = −π − √Δ . π−πΌ (64) Now, we show that [π΄ πΌ (π, π , π‘)∗ ]−1 ∈ (β1 : β1 ), for |π 1 | < 1. By Theorem 5, we know that if |π 1 | < 1, |π 2 | < 1. We assume that π 2 − 4π‘(π − πΌ) =ΜΈ 0 and |π 1 | < 1, ∞ ∞ σ΅© σ΅©σ΅© σ΅¨σ΅¨ σ΅¨σ΅¨ σ΅¨σ΅¨ σ΅¨σ΅¨ σ΅©σ΅©[π΄ πΌ (π, π , π‘)∗ ]−1 σ΅©σ΅©σ΅© π = = sup ∑ ∑ σ΅¨ σ΅¨ σ΅¨σ΅¨ππ σ΅¨σ΅¨ σ΅¨ πσ΅¨ σ΅©(β1 :β1 ) σ΅© π π=π β©½ .. .

This shows that (π΄ πΌ (π, π , π‘)∗ ]−1 ∈ (β1 : β1 ). Similarly we can show that [π΄ πΌ (π, π , π‘)∗ ]−1 ∈ (β∞ : β∞ ). Now assume that π 2 − 4π‘(π − πΌ) = 0. Then, In the case 1 < π < ∞, since the proof of the theorems, in Section 4, determining the spectrum and fine spectrum of the matrix operator π΄(π, π , π‘) on the sequence space βπ is similar to the case 0 < π β©½ 1; to avoid the repetition of similar statements, we give the results by the following theorem without proof. Theorem 19. The following statements hold: (i) π(π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = π·1 , (ii) ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = 0, (iii) ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = π·2 , (iv) ππ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = π·3 , (v) πap (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = π·1 , (vi) πco (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = 0, (vii) ππΏ (π΄(π, π , π‘), βπ ) = π·3 . 5. Some Applications (66) In this section, we give two theorems related to Toeplitz matrix. and simple calculation gives that (ππ ) ∈ βπ if and only if |−π | < 2|π − πΌ|, Theorem 20. Let π be a polynomial that corresponds to the πtuple π and let π§1 , π§2 , π§3 , . . . , π§π−1 also be the roots of π. Define π as a Toeplitz matrix associated with π, that is, π 2π −π ] ππ = ( ) [ −π 2 (π − πΌ) −1 [(π΄ (π, π , π‘) − πΌπΌ)∗ ] ∈ (βπ : βπ ) σ΅¨σ΅¨ σ΅¨σ΅¨ for πΌ ∈ C with 2 |π − πΌ| > σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨−π + √π 2 − 4π‘ (π − πΌ)σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ . σ΅¨ σ΅¨ (67) π0 [0 [ π = [0 [ ..

That is π−1 ∈ (βπ : βπ ) if and if only |π§π | > 1, 1 β©½ π β©½ π − 1. In this case the resolvent operator is represented by 1 π−1 = ππ−1 π΄−1 (−π§1 , 1) π΄−1 (−π§2 , 1) ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ π΄−1 (−π§π−1 , 1) , where [ [ [ [ [ [ −1 π΄ (−π§π , 1) = − [ [ [ [ [ [ [ 1/π§π 1/π§π2 1/π§π3 1/π§π4 1/π§π5 . . . 0 0 0 0 .. . ] 1/π§π 1/π§π2 1/π§π3 1/π§π4 . . . ] ] ] 0 1/π§π 1/π§π2 1/π§π3 . . . ] ] ]. 2 0 0 1/π§π 1/π§π . . . ] ] ] 0 0 0 1/π§π . . . ] ] .. .. .. .. . . .] . . . . (70) Proof. Suppose all the roots of the polynomial π(π§) = π0 + π1 π§ + ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ + ππ−1 π§π−1 = ππ (π§ − π§1 )(π§ − π§2 ) ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ (π§ − π§π−1 ) are outside the unit disc. The Toeplitz matrix associated with π can be written as the product π = ππ π΄ (−π§1 , 1) π΄ (−π§2 , 1) ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ π΄ (−π§π−1 , 1) . (71) Since multiplication of upper triangular Toeplitz matrices is commutative, we can see that π−1 = 1 ππ−1 π΄−1 (−π§1 , 1) π΄−1 (−π§2 , 1) ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ π΄−1 (−π§π−1 , 1) (72) is left inverse of π. Since all roots are outside the unit disc, then ∞ ∞ 1 1 σ΅© σ΅©σ΅© −1 σ΅©σ΅©π (−π§π , 1)σ΅©σ΅©σ΅© = sup = ∑ ∑ π+1−π σ΅©(β∞ :β∞ ) σ΅© σ΅¨ σ΅¨ σ΅¨ σ΅¨π < ∞. π π=π σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨π§π σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ π=1 σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨π§π σ΅¨σ΅¨σ΅¨ (73) Therefore each π−1 (−π§π , 1) ∈ (β∞ : β∞ ), for 1 β©½ π β©½ π − 1. Similarly we can say that π−1 (−π§π , 1) ∈ (β1 : β1 ). So we have π−1 (−π§π , 1) ∈ (βπ : βπ ). Theorem 21. The resolvent operator of π΄(π, π , π‘) over βπ with 1 < π < ∞, where the domain of the resolvent operator is the space βπ , exists if and only if 2|π| > | − π + √π 2 − 4π‘π|.

By Theorem 20, we can see that πΈ(π, π , π‘) is inverse of the matrix of π΄(π, π , π‘). But this is not enough to say it is resolvent operator. By Lemmas 13, 14, and 15, πΈ(π, π , π‘) ∈ (βπ : βπ ), when 2|π| > | − π + √π 2 − 4π‘π|. That is for 2|π| > | − π + √π 2 − 4π‘π|, πΈ(π, π , π‘) is a resolvent operator.
