Density properties of orbits for a hypercyclic operator on a Banach space

Abstract

We study density properties of orbits for a hypercyclic operator TT on a separable Banach space XX, and show that exactly one of the following four cases holds: (1) every vector in XX is asymptotic to zero with density one; (2) generic vectors in XX are distributionally irregular of type 11; (3) generic vectors in XX are distributionally irregular of type 2122\frac{1}{2} and no hypercyclic vector is distributionally irregular of type 11; (4) every hypercyclic vector in XX is divergent to infinity with density one. We also present some examples concerned with weighted backward shifts on p\ell^p to show that all the above four cases can occur. Furthermore, we show that similar results hold for C0C_0-semigroups.
