For a complex Banach space, the spectrum of a bounded operator and resolvent set areThe bounded inverse theorem says that a bounded bijection between Banach spaces automatically has a bounded inverse, so failure of bijectivity suffices here. The point spectrum isthe set of eigenvalues. For a real Banach space, these definitions use its complexification.
