A Banach space $X$ is said to have the Daugavet property if every operator $T: X\to X$ of rank~$1$ satisfies $\|Id+T\| = 1+\|T\|$. We show that then every weakly compact operator satisfies this equation as well and that $X$ contains a copy…

In the paper is considered two problems on extension of operators whose range space for the first problem (or domain space for the second one) belongs to the fixed class of finite equivalence, which is generated by a given Banach space $X$.…

In this paper, the power boundedness and mean ergodicity of multiplication operators are investigated on the Bloch space B, the little Bloch space B0 and the Besov Space Bp. We completely characterize power bounded, mean ergodic and…

In this paper we characterize the compact operators on $A^p_\alpha(\mathbb{B}_n)$ when $1<p<\infty$ and $\alpha>-1$. The main result shows that an operator on $A^p_\alpha(\mathbb{B}_n)$ is compact if and only if it belongs to the Toeplitz…

Let $A$ be a unital dense algebra of linear mappings on a complex vector space $X$. Let $\phi=\sum_{i=1}^n M_{a_i,b_i}$ be a locally quasi-nilpotent elementary operator of length $n$ on $A$. We show that, if $\{a_1,\ldots,a_n\}$ is locally…

We show that, if $E$ is a Banach space with a basis satisfying a certain condition, then the Banach algebra $\ell^\infty({\cal K}(\ell^2 \oplus E))$ is not amenable; in particular, this is true for $E = \ell^p$ with $p \in (1,\infty)$. As a…

In this paper the general spectral properties of linear operators in Banach spaces are studied. We find sufficient conditions on structure of Banach spaces and resolvent properties that guarantee completeness of roots elements of Schatten…

We derive a formula for the essential norm of a composition operator on the minimal Mobius invariant space of analytic functions. As an application, we show that the essential norm of a non-compact composition operator is at least 1. We…

An algebra of bounded linear operators on a Banach space is said to be {\em strongly compact} if its unit ball is precompact in the strong operator topology, and a bounded linear operator on a Banach space is said to be {\em strongly…

We study order-to-weak continuous operators from an ordered Banach space to a normed space. It is proved that under rather mild conditions every order-to-weak continuous operator is bounded.

It is shown that finite groups in which the order of the product of every pair of elements of co-prime order is the product of the orders, is nilpotent.

We give a criterion ensuring that the elementary class of a modular Banach space E (that is, the class of Banach spaces, some ultrapower of which is linearly isometric to an ultrapower of E) consists of all direct sums E\oplus_m H, where H…

We classify operator systems $S\subseteq \mathcal B(H)$ that act on finite dimensional Hilbert spaces by making use of the noncommutative Choquet boundary. S is said to be {\em reduced} when its boundary ideal is 0. In the category of…

Every analytic self-map of the unit ball of a Hilbert space induces a bounded composition operator on the space of Bloch functions. Necessary and sufficient conditions for compactness of such composition operators are provided, as well as…

H. J. Schwartz proved in his thesis (1969) that a nonzero bounded operator on Hardy spaces $(H^p, 1\leq p\leq\infty)$ is almost multiplicative if and only if it is a composition operator. But, his proof has a gap. In this article, we show…

An equivalent condition for an element of a Lie algebra acting nilpotently in all its representations is obtained. Namely, it should belong to the derived algebra and go via factoring over the radical to a nilpotent element of the…

We study linear operators $T$ on Banach spaces for which there exists a $C_0$-semigroup $(T(t))_{t\geq 0}$ such that $T=T(1)$. We present a necessary condition in terms of the spectral value 0 and give classes of examples where this can or…

Let $E$ and $G$ be two Banach function spaces, let $T \in \mathcal{L}(E,Y)$, and let ${\langle X,Y \rangle}$ be a Banach dual pair. In this paper we give conditions for which there exists a (necessarily unique) bounded linear operator…

We describe a subclass of the class of normal operators on Banach spaces over non-Archimedean fields (A. N. Kochubei, J. Math. Phys. 51 (2010), article 023526) consisting of operators whose properties resemble those of unitary operators. In…

It is known that any separable Banach space with BAP is a complemented subspace of a Banach space with a basis. We show that every operator with bounded approximation property, acting from a separable Banach space, can be factored through a…
