Linear operators with wild dynamics

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: If X is a separable infinite dimensional Banach space, we construct a bounded and linear operator R on X such that A_R={x in X, |R^tx| ightarrow infty} is not dense and has non empty interior with the additional property that R can be written I+K, where I is the identity and K is a compact operator. This answers two recent questions of H'ajek and Smith.


In some sense, this nice paper combines two rich subjects of Functional Analysis: hypercyclic operators and the outstanding theory, due to Gowers and Maurey, of spaces with few operators.NEWLINENEWLINELet \(X\) be a (real or complex) separable infinite-dimensional Banach space; for a bounded linear operator \(T:X\rightarrow X\), consider the set NEWLINE\[NEWLINE A_{T}=\left\{ x\in X:\left\| T^{t}x\right\| \rightarrow\infty\right\} .
