It is shown that if $A{geq}0$ and T are two bounded linear operators on a complex Hilbert space H satisfying the inequality $T^*;AT{leq}A$ and the condition $AT=A^{1/2}TA^{1/2}$, then there exists the maximum reducing subspace for A and $A^{1/2}T$ on which the equality $T^*;AT=A$ is satisfied. We concretely express this subspace in two ways, and as applications, we derive certain decompositions for quasinormal contractions. Also, some facts concerning the quasi-isometries are obtained.
