We study the rate of convergence of a sequence of linear operators that converges pointwise to a linear operator. Our main interest is in characterizing the slowest type of pointwise convergence possible. This is a continuation of the paper Deutsch and Hundal (2010) [14]. The main result is a “lethargy” theorem (Theorem 3.3) which gives useful conditions that guarantee arbitrarily slow convergence. In the particular case when the sequence of linear operators is generated by the powers of a single linear operator, we obtain a “dichotomy” theorem, which states the surprising result that either there is linear (fast) convergence or arbitrarily slow convergence; no other type of convergence is possible. The dichotomy theorem is applied to generalize and sharpen: (1) the von Neumann–Halperin cyclic projections theorem, (2) the rate of convergence for intermittently (i.e., “almost” randomly) ordered projections, and (3) a theorem of Xu and Zikatanov.
