Abstract

We study subspaces of algebraL(X) which are invariant with respect to all similarity transformations and give a full description of these subspaces for finite-dimensional spaceX, for separable Hilbert spaceX and forX=l p (1≤p<∞) orc 0. The problem is equivalent to a study of Lie ideals inL(X).
