Abstract. Generalizing Pisier’s idea, we introduce a Hilbertian matrix cross normed space associated with a pair of symmetric normed ideals. When the two ideals coincide, we show that our construction gives an operator space if and only if the ideal is the Schatten class. In general, a pair of symmetric normed ideals that are not necessarily the Schatten class may give rise to an operator space...

In this paper, we considered composition operators on weighted Hilbert spaces of analytic functions and  observed that a formula for the  essential norm, gives a Hilbert-Schmidt characterization and characterizes the membership in Schatten-class for these operators. Also, closed range composition operators  are investigated.

We define Schatten classes of adjointable operators on Hilbert modules over abelian C⁎-algebras. Many key features carry from the space case. In particular, form two-sided ideals compact and are equipped with a Banach norm C⁎-valued trace expected properties. For trivial bundles, we show that our Schatten-class can be identified bijectively Schatten-norm–continuous maps base into fiber, fiberwi...
