Weakly subnormal weighted shifts need not be 2-hyponormal

Abstract

In this paper we give an example which is a weakly subnormal weighted shift but not 2-hyponormal. Also, we show that every partially normal extension of an isometry $T$ needs not be 2-hyponormal even though $\text{p.n.e.}(T)$ is weakly subnormal.
