Mean Li-Yorke chaos in Banach spaces (Q2007985)

\par A bounded linear operator \(T\) on a Banach space \(X\) is said to be mean Li-Yorke chaotic if there is an uncountable subset \(S\) of \(X\), called a mean Li-Yorke chaotic set for \(T\), such that \[ \liminf_{N\to\infty}\frac{1}{N}\sum_{j=1}^N\|T^jx-T^jy\|=0\text{ and }\limsup_{N\to\infty}\frac{1}{N}\sum_{j=1}^N\|T^jx-T^jy\|>0 \] whenever \((x, y)\) is a pair of distinct points in \(S\). If \(S\) is dense (resp., residual) then \(T\) is called densely (resp., generically) mean Li-Yorke chaotic. The operator \(T\) is said to have an absolutely mean irregular (resp., absolutely mean semi-irregular) vector \(x\in X\) if \[ \liminf_{N\to\infty}\frac{1}{N}\sum_{j=1}^N\|T^jx\|=0\text{ and }\limsup_{N\to\infty}\frac{1}{N}\sum_{j=1}^N\|T^jx\|=\infty\text{ (resp., }>0). \] Finally, \(T\) is called absolutely Cesàro bounded if there exists a constant \(C > 0\) such that \[ \sup_{N\geq1}\frac{1}{N}\sum_{j=1}^N\|T^jx\|\leq C\|x\| \] for all \(x\in X\). In this well written paper, the authors characterize Banach space operators that are absolutely Cesàro bounded and show that a Banach space operator is mean Li-Yorke chaotic if and only if it has an absolutely mean irregular vector. Then, they deduce that no absolutely Cesàro bounded operator is mean Li-Yorke chaotic. Moreover, they show that a bounded linear operator on a separable Banach space is densely mean Li-Yorke chaos if and only if it has a residual set of absolutely mean irregular vectors. As a consequence, they deduce that every mean Li-Yorke chaotic operator is densely mean Li-Yorke chaotic on some infinite-dimensional closed invariant subspace. A (dense) mean Li-Yorke chaos criterion and a sufficient condition for the existence of a dense absolutely mean irregular manifold are also obtained. They also construct an example of an invertible hypercyclic operator \(T\) such that every nonzero vector is absolutely mean irregular for both \(T\) and its inverse. Furthermore, they study the mean Li-Yorke chaos for \(C_0\)-semigroups of operators on Banach spaces. The authors provide several examples and remarks which nicely illustrate the obtained results.
