Abstract
The following open problem is stated: Is there a non-normable Fréchet space E such that every continuous linear operator T on E has the form T = λI + S, where S maps a 0-neighbourhood of E into a bounded set? A few remarks and the relation of this question with other still open problems on operators between Fréchet spaces are mentioned.
Resumen
Se plantea el siguiente problema: ≡Existe un espacio de Fréchet no normable E tal que todo operador lineal y continuo T en E tiene la forma T = λI + S, donde S manda un entorno de E en un conjunto acotado? Se mencionan algunas observaciones y la relación de esta cuestión con otros problemas aún abiertos acerca de operadores en espacios de Fréchet.
