Abstract
Let Aij i, j=1, 2,..., be operators on a Hilbert spaceX, such that the compound operatorA ∞=A ij ∞i, j=1 induces a bounded positive operator onl 2(X). We show that S(A ∞, theshorted operator (orgeneralized Schur complement), of A∞ can be obtained as the limits of shorts of the operators An, where An is the truncated version ofA ∞, thenA n=A ij ni, j=1 . We use these results to study the short-circuit approximations to infinite networks.
