A Hereditarily Indecomposable (HI) Banach space $X$ admits an HI extension if there exists an HI space $Z$ such that $X$ is isomorphic to a subspace $Y$ of $Z$ and $Z/Y$ is of infinite dimension. The problem whether or not every HI space…
It is shown that every separable reflexive Banach space is a quotient of a reflexive Hereditarily Indecomposable space, which yields that every separable reflexive Banach is isomorphic to a subspace of a reflexive Indecomposable space.…
It is shown that every Banach space either contains $\ell ^1$ or it has an infinite dimensional closed subspace which is a quotient of a H.I. Banach space.Further on, $L^p(\lambda )$, $1<p<\infty $, is a quotient of a H.I Banach space.
The Invariant Subspace Problem (ISP) for Hilbert spaces asks if every bounded linear operator has a non-trivial closed invariant subspace. Due to the existence of universal operators (in the sense of Rota) the ISP can be solved by proving…
The method of compatible sequences is introduced in order to produce non-trivial (closed) invariant subspaces of (bounded linear) operators. Also a topological tool is used which is new in the search of invariant subspaces: the extraction…

We analyze the ergodic properties of power-bounded operators on a reflexive Banach space of the form "scalar plus compact-power", and show that they are almost periodic (all the orbits are conditionally compact). If such an operator is…
