Abstract

It is shown that if A is a compact operator on a Hilbert space with its numerical range W(A) contained in the closed unit disc double-struck D sign̄ and with W(A) intersecting the unit circle at infinitely many points, then W(A) is equal to double-struck D sign̄. This is an infinite-dimensional analogue of a result of Anderson for finite matrices.
