We consider the resolvent algebra $${R_A=\{T\in\mathcal{L} (X):\sup_{m \geq 0}\|(1+\,mA)T(1+\,mA)^{-1}\| < \infty \}}$$ , and Deddens’ algebra $${B_A= \{T\in \mathcal{B}(H) : \sup_{n\geq 0}\|A^nTA^{-n}\|<\infty\}}$$ . It is shown that both R A and B A–I possess non-trivial invariant subspaces when A is an algebraic operator of degree 2. This assertion becomes stronger than the existence of a hyper-invariant subspace for R A whenever R A ≠ {A}′. Investigation of the relationship between these two algebras is addressed for different classes of operators A. Also, a complete characterization of the algebra R A when A is an algebraic operator is given. For the finite dimensional case, we present an elementary example showing that R A contains properly {A}′ whenever A has an eigenvalue other than zero.
