Abstract

It is proved that if Ji is a Jordan operator on a Hilbert space with the Jordan decomposition Ji = Ni+Qi, where Ni is normal and Qi is compact and quasinilpotent, i = 1, 2, and the Lie algebra generated by J1, J2 is an Engel Lie algebra, then the Banach algebra generated by J1, J2 is an Engel algebra. Some results for normal operators and Jordan operators on Banach spaces are given.
