On local-to-global properties of semigroups of operators
by
Heydar Radjavi
University of Waterloo

Let S be a semigroup of operators with no common, nontrivial, invariant subspaces. What can be said about S if there exists a nonzero linear functional f (on all operators) whose restriction to S takes only real values or, more restrictively, only positive values? Even when confined to compact operators, not all the questions have trivial answers.
