Abstract

We show the existence of Banach spaces X, Y such that the set of strictly singular operators 𝒮(X,Y) (resp., the set of strictly cosingular operators 𝒞𝒮(X,Y)) would be strictly included in +(X,Y) (resp., (X,Y)) for the nonempty class of closed densely defined upper semi-Fredholm operators Φ+(X,Y) (resp., for the nonempty class of closed densely defined lower semi-Fredholm operators Φ(X,Y)).
