Abstract

In 1978 E. Albrecht constructed a Banach space operator which is decomposable in the sense of C. Foias, but not strongly decomposable. In the present note we describe a method which allows to construct examples of this kind in a systematic and much simpler way. In particular, we exhibit a decomposable, but not strongly decomposable operator on a Hilbert space and thus answer a corresponding question of M.Radjabalipour.
