For 0 < t < 1, let Tt = |T|tU|T|1-t and gT and gTt be the principal functions of T and Tt, respectively. We show that, if T is an invertible semi-hyponormal operator with trace class commutator [|T|,U], then gT = gTt almost everywhere on C. As a biproduct we reprove Berger's theorem and index properties of invertible p-hyponormal operators}, pages = {605--618}, title = {Relations between principal functions of p-hyponormal operators : Dedicated to Professor Sin-Ei Takahasi on his sixtieth birthday}, volume = {57}, year = {2005} }
