For a completely non-unitary contraction T, some necessary (and, in certain cases, sufficient) conditions are found for the range of the calculus, , and the commutant, T’, to contain non-zero compact operators, and for the finite rank operators of T’ to be dense in the set of compact operators of T’. A sufficient condition is given for T’ to contain non-zero operators from the Schatten-von Neumann classes .
