Let H be a complex infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space,
and let K(H) be the C∗-algebra of compact linear
operators in H. Let (E,∥⋅∥E) be a symmetric sequence space.
If {μ(n,x)} are the singular values of x∈K(H), let
CE={x∈K(H):{μ(n,x)}∈E} with
∥x∥CE=∥{μ(n,x)}∥E, x∈CE, be the Banach
ideal of compact operators generated by E. Let $\mathcal C_E^h={x\in\mathcal
