We discuss some necessary and some sufficient conditions for an elementary operator $x\mapsto\sum_{i=1}^n a_ixb_i$ on a Banach algebra $A$ to be spectrally bounded. In the case of length three, we obtain a complete characterisation when $A$…

We introduce the class of $\alpha$-firmly nonexpansive and quasi $\alpha$-firmly nonexpansive operators on $r$-uniformly convex Banach spaces. This extends the existing notion from Hilbert spaces, where $\alpha$-firmly nonexpansive…

Let $H$ be a reflexive, dense, separable, infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space and let $B(H)$ be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on $H$. In this paper, we carry out characterizations of norm-attainable operators in normed…

Motivated by the equivalent definition of a continuous operator between Banach spaces in terms of weakly null nets, we introduce unbounded continuous operators by replacing weak convergence with the unbounded absolutely weak convergence (…

A bounded operator on a real or complex separable infinite-dimensional Banach space $Z$ is universal in the sense of Glasner and Weiss if for every invertible ergodic measure-preserving transformation $T$ of a standard Lebesgue probability…

Let $E$ be a real Banach space. For $x,y \in E,$ we follow R.James in saying that $x$ is orthogonal to $y$ if $\|x+\alpha y\|\geq \|x\|$ for every $\alpha \in R$. We prove that every operator from $E$ into itself preserving orthogonality is…

We show that if the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is bounded on a reflexive Banach function space $X(\mathbb{R})$ and on its associate space $X'(\mathbb{R})$, then the space $X(\mathbb{R})$ has an unconditional wavelet basis. As a…

It is known that for every Banach space X and every proper WOT-closed subalgebra A of L(X), if A contains a compact operator then it is not transitive. That is, there exist non-zero x in X and f in X* such that f(Tx)=0 for all T in A. In…

Given a Banach space $E$, we ask which closed subspaces may be realised as the kernel of a bounded operator $E \rightarrow E$. We prove some positive results which imply in particular that when $E$ is separable every closed subspace is a…

We prove, under certain conditions, the existence of zeros for a weakly continuous operator on a paracompact topological space into the dual of a Banach space.

Let B be a unital Banach algebra. A projection in B which is equivalent to the identitity may give rise to a matrix-like structure on any two-sided ideal A in B. In this set-up we prove a theorem to the effect that the bounded Hochschild…

Motivated by the equivalent definition of a continuous operator between Banach spaces in terms of weakly null nets, we introduce two types of continuous operators between Banach lattices using unbounded absolute weak convergence. We…

We prove that reiteratively hypercyclic operators have perfect spectrum. Consequently, it follows that there exist separable infinite dimensional Banach spaces that do not support any reiteratively hypercyclic operator. For this, we study…

In this paper we first introduce the extended limit set $J_{\{T^n\}}(x)$ for a sequence of bounded linear operators $\{T_n\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ on a separable Banach space $X$ . Then we study the dynamics of sequence of linear operators by…

We obtain a trichotomy for the orbits of a hypercyclic operator $T$ on a separable Banach space $X$: (1) every vector is mean asymptotic to zero; (2) generic vectors are absolutely mean irregular; (3) every hypercyclic vector is mean…

Let $X$, $Y$, and $Z$ be Banach spaces, and let $\alpha$ be a tensor norm. Let a bounded linear operator $S\in\mathcal{L}(Z,\mathcal{L}(X,Y))$ be given. We obtain (necessary and/or sufficient) conditions for the existence of an operator…

The question which led to the title of this note is the following: {\it If $X$ is a Banach space and $K$ is a compact subset of $X$, is it possible to find a compact, or even approximable, operator $v:X\to X$ such that…

We investigate lineability/spaceability problems within the setting of multilinear summing operators on quasi-Banach sequence spaces. Furthermore, we deal with the contemporary geometric notions of pointwise-lineability and…

A linear operator $U$ acting boundedly on an infinite-dimensional separable complex Hilbert space $H$ is universal if every linear bounded operator acting on $H$ is similar to a scalar multiple of a restriction of $U$ to one of its…

Given a Banach space $X$, there are many operator space structures possible on $X$, which all have $X$ as their first matrix level. Blecher and Paulsen identified two extreme operator space structures on $X$, namely $Min(X)$ and $Max(X)$…
