On Interpolation of Compact-Operators

Abstract

The authors extend a result of K. Hayakawa [J. Math. Soc. Jap. 21, 189-199 (1969; Zbl 0181.137)], and prove: If T is a linear operator such that T: A0 ! B0, is bounded,and T: A1 ! B1 is compact, and moreover, A1 A0, then T: ¯ A,q ! ¯B,q is compact for 0 < < 1, 0 < q 1.
