We study the structure of strictly singular non-compact operators between $L_p$ spaces. Answering a question raised in [Adv. Math. 316 (2017), 667-690], it is shown that there exist operators $T$, for which the set of points…

A theorem of Giesy and James states that $c_0$ is finitely representable in James' quasi-reflexive Banach space $J_2$. We extend this theorem to the $p$th quasi-reflexive James space $J_p$ for each $p \in (1,\infty)$. As an application, we…

We study the interpolation and extrapolation properties of strictly singular operators between different $L_p$ spaces. To this end, the structure of strictly singular non-compact operators between $L_p-L_q$ spaces is analyzed. Among other…

Let T be the quasinilpotent operator on ell_1 without an invariant subspace constructed by C. J. Read in [R3]. We prove that the modulus of this operator has an invariant subspace (and even an eigenvector). This answers a question posed by…

We present condition on higher order asymptotic behaviour of basic sequences in a Banach space ensuring the existence of bounded non-compact strictly singular operator on a subspace. We apply it in asymptotic $\ell_p$ spaces, $1\leq…

Every composition of two strictly singular operators is compact on the Baernstein space $B_p$ for $1 < p < \infty$ and on the $p$-convexified Schreier space $S_{p}$ for $1 \leq p < \infty$. Furthermore, every subsymmetric basic sequence in…

Given $1< p < q < \infty$ it is well know that the natural embedding of Lebesgue sequence spaces $\ell_p \hookrightarrow \ell_q$ is strictly singular. In this paper we extend this classical results and show that even the natural non-compact…

Let $1<p,\,q<\infty$. It is shown for complex scalars that there are no nontrivial $M$-ideals in $L(L_p[0,1])$ if $p\neq 2$, and $K(\ell_p(\ell_q^n)$ is the only nontrivial $M$-ideal in $L(\ell_p(\ell_q^n)$. This proves a conjecture of…

We present a general method for constructing operators without non-trivial invariant closed subsets on a large class of non-reflexive Banach spaces. In particular, our approach unifies and generalizes several constructions due to Read of…

Using Read's construction of operators without non-trivial invariant subspaces/subsets on $\ell_{1}$ or $c_{0}$, we construct examples of operators on a Hilbert space whose set of hypercyclic vectors is "large" in various senses. We give an…

In the short note we prove that for every $0<p<1$, there exists an infinite dimensional closed linear subspace of $\mathcal{L}\left( \ell_{p};\ell_{p}\right) $ every nonzero element of which is non $(r,s)$-absolutely summing operator for…

We construct a strictly singular non-compact operator on Gowers' and Maurey's space $GM$.

V. D. Milman proved in \cite{Milman:70} that the product of two strictly singular operators on $L_p[0,1]$ ($1\le p<\infty$) or on $C[0,1]$ is compact. In this note we utilize Schreier families $\S_\xi$ in order to define the class of…

Let $E$ be an operator space in the sense of the theory recently developed by Blecher-Paulsen and Effros-Ruan. We introduce a notion of $E$-valued non commutative $L_p$-space for $1 \leq p < \infty$ and we prove that the resulting operator…

Given $0<p,q, r<\infty $ and $ q<r\le \infty$ we consider the natural embedding $\ell_{p,q}\hookrightarrow \ell_{p,r}$ between Lorenz sequence spaces. We prove that this non-compact embedding is always strictly singular but not finitely…

Let $T$ be an absolutely continuous polynomially bounded operator, and let $\theta$ be a singular inner function. It is shown that if $\theta(T)$ is invertible and some additional conditions are fulfilled, then $T$ has nontrivial…

The class of strictly singular operators originating from the dual of a separable Banach space is written as an increasing union of $\omega_1$ subclasses which are defined using the Schreier sets. A question of J. Diestel, of whether a…

We study mapping properties of the centered Hardy--Littlewood maximal operator $\mathcal{M}$ acting on Lorentz spaces $L^{p,q}(\mathfrak{X})$ in the context of certain non-doubling metric measure spaces $\mathfrak{X}$. The special class of…

A continuous linear operator $T:E \to F$ is called strictly singular if it cannot be invertible on any infinite dimensional closed subspace of its domain. In this note we discuss sufficient conditions and consequences of the phenomenon…

We show that C.J.Read's example of an operator T on l_1 which does not have any non-trivial invariant subspaces is not the adjoint of an operator on a predual of l_1. Furthermore, we present a bounded diagonal operator D such that even…
