Given unital Banach algebras A and B and elements a ∈ A and b ∈ B, the Drazin spectrum of

is a Banach algebra that is the completion of A ⊗ B with respect to a ...uniform crossnorm. To this end, however, first the isolated points of the spectrum of
need to be characterized. On the other hand, given Banach spaces X and Y and Banach space operators S ∈ L(X) and T ∈ L(Y), using similar arguments the Drazin spectrum of τ
ST
∈ L(L(Y, X)), the elementary operator defined by S and T, will be fully characterized.

We study s-functions of elementary operators acting on C*-algebras. The main results are the following: If τ is any tensor norm and A, B ∈ B(𝓗) are such that the sequences s(A), s(B) of their ...singular numbers belong to a tensor stable Calkin space 𝔦 then the sequence of approximation numbers of A ⊗τ B belongs to 𝔦. If 𝒜 is a C*-algebra, 𝔦 is a tensor stable Calkin space, s is an s-number function, and ai, bi ∈ 𝒜, i = 1, 2,..., m are such that s(π(ai)), s(π(bi)) ∈ 𝔦, i = 1, 2,..., m for some faithful representation π of 𝒜 then $\mathrm{s}\left(\sum _{\mathrm{i}=1}^{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{M}}_{{\mathrm{a}}_{\mathrm{i}},{\mathrm{b}}_{\mathrm{i}}}\right)\in \mathfrak{i}$. The converse implication holds if and only if the ideal of compact elements of 𝒜 has finite spectrum. We also prove a quantitative version of a result of Ylinen.
The question of the existence of non-trivial ideals of Lie algebras of compact operators is considered from different points of view. One of the approaches is based on the concept of a tractable Lie ...algebra, which can be of interest independently of the main theme of the paper. Among other results it is shown that an infinite-dimensional closed Lie or Jordan algebra of compact operators cannot be simple. Several partial answers to Wojtyński’s problem on the topological simplicity of Lie algebras of compact quasinilpotent operators are also given.
