Extract

Let ˜ be an equivalence relation on a topological space X. A point x ε X i s stable with respect to ˜ if it is in the interior of an equivalence class. We may also add, if ambiguity arises, that x is stable under perturbations in X. Let E be a Banach space, and let L(E) be the Banach space of continuous linear endomorphisms of E, with norm given by |T| = sup{ |T(x) | : |x| = 1}. In this paper we discuss stability of elements of L(E) with respect to some natural equivalence relations.
