Abstract

The operator $A \; {\in} \; L(H_{i})$, the Banach algebra of bounded linear operators on the complex infinite dimensional Hilbert space $\cal H_{i}$, is said to be p-hyponormal if $(A^\ast A)^P \geq (AA^\ast)^p$ for $p\; \in \; (0,1]$. Let (equation omitted) denote the completion of (equation omitted) with respect to some crossnorm. Let $I_{i}$ be the identity operator on $H_{i}$. Letting (equation omitted), where each $A_{i}$ is p-hyponormal, it is proved that the commuting n-tuple T = ($T_1$,..., $T_{n}$) satisfies Bishop's condition ($\beta$) and that if T is Weyl then there exists a non-singular commuting n-tuple S such that T = S + F for some n-tuple F of compact operators.
