On the inverse-closedness of operator-valued matrices with polynomial off-diagonal decay

Abstract

We give a self-contained proof of a recently established $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$-valued version of Jaffards Lemma. That is, we show that the Jaffard algebra of $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$-valued matrices, whose operator norms of their respective entries decay polynomially off the diagonal, is a Banach algebra which is inverse-closed in the Banach algebra $\mathcal{B}(\ell^2(X;\mathcal{H}))$ of all bounded linear operators on $\ell^2(X;\mathcal{H})$, the Bochner-space of square-summable $\mathcal{H}$-valued sequences.
