Abstract:
We consider a generalization of Hausdorff operator and introduce the notion of the symbol of such an operator. Using this notion we describe under some natural conditions the structure and investigate important properties (such as invertibility, spectrum, norm, and compactness) of normal generalized Hausdorff operators on Lebesgue spaces over $\mathbb{R}^n.$ The examples of Cesàro operators are considered.
Keywords:Hausdorff operator, Cesàro operator, symbol of an operator, normal operator, spectrum, compact operator.
