Summary: We prove that some classes of functions, defined on a closed set in the complex plane with planar Lebesgue measure zero, are non-quasiana\-lytic. We particular ly treat the Carleman classes and classes of functions having asymtotically hol omorphic continuation. Combining this with Dyn'kin's functional calculus based on the Cauchy-Pompeiu formula, we establish the existence of invariant subspac es for operators for which a part of the spectrum is of planar Lebesgue measure zero, provided that the resolvent has a moderate growth near this part of the s pectrum.
