(dated) An eigenvalue.
– the proper values of L;
– for each proper value α of L|Eᶜ and proper value β of L|Eᵘ, the proper value α/β — from the assumptions it follows that this latter collection of proper values consists of contracting proper values only.

In this terminology, Theorem 1 asserts that every non-zero proper value of a CC-operator has finite multiplicity. This result is not always helpful, for there exist CC-operators having no proper values at all:
Thus any proper value of AA* is a proper value of A*A.
