Li-Yorke chaos for composition operators on \(L^p\)-spaces (Q2287878)

Let \((X,\mathcal{B},\mu)\) be a measure space and \(f:X\to X\) be measurable such that \(T_f:\phi\to \phi\circ f\) is a bounded linear operator on \(L^p(X,\mathcal{B},\mu)\) with \(1\leq p<\infty\). The main result of this paper is a characterization of Li-Yorke chaos for such composition operators \(T_f\) on \(L^p(X,\mathcal{B},\mu)\). Several consequences are obtained when \(\mu\) and/or the symbol \(f\) have some extra properties. As a consequence, a~characterization of Li-Yorke chaos in the particular case of weighted shifts on \(\ell^p(\mathbb{Z})\) is obtained. The article closes with several particular examples and counterexamples proving the optimality of some results.
