A Banach space operator T ∈ B(X ) has a left m-inverse (resp., an essential left m-inverse) for some integer m ≥ 1 if there exists an operator S ∈ B(X ) (resp., an operator S ∈ B(X ) and a compact operator K ∈ B(X )) such thatis strictly left m-invertible (resp., strictly essentially left m-invertible), then T1 ⊗ T2 is: (i) left (m + n − 1)-invertible (resp., essentially left (m + n − 1)-invertible) if and only if T2 is left n-invertible (resp., essentially left n-invertible); (ii) strictly left (m + n − 1)invertible (resp., strictly essentially left (m + n − 1)-invertible) if and only if T2 is strictly left n-invertible (resp., strictly essentially left n-invertible).2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary 47A80, 47A10; Secondary 47B47.
