We compare two types of universal operators constructed relatively recently by Cabello S\'anchez, and the authors. The first operator $\Omega$ acts on the Gurarii space, while the second one $P_S$ has values in a fixed separable Banach…

We present selected known results and some of their improvements, involving Gurarii spaces. A Banach space is Gurarii if it has certain natural extension property for almost isometric embeddings of finite-dimensional spaces. Deleting the…

We furnish a simple way of constructing an unbounded closed linear operator in a complex Banach space, whose spectrum is an arbitrary nonempty closed, in particular compact, subset of the complex plane.

It is introduced an open class of linear operators on Banach and Hilbert spaces such that their non-wandering set is an infinite dimensional topologically mixing subspace. In certain cases, the non-wandering set coincides with the whole…

A bounded linear operator between Banach spaces is called {\it completely continuous} if it carries weakly convergent sequences into norm convergent sequences. Isolated is a universal operator for the class of non-completely-continuous…

Answering a question of Garbuli\'nska-W\c{e}grzyn and Kubi\'s, we prove that Gurarii operators form a dense $G_\delta$-set in the space $\mathcal B(\mathbb G)$ of all nonexpansive operators on the Gurarii space $\mathbb G$, endowed with the…

The Gurari\u{\i} space is the unique separable Banach space $\mathbb{G}$ which is of almost universal disposition for finite-dimensional Banach spaces, which means that for every $\varepsilon>0$, for all finite-dimensional normed spaces $E…

In topological equivalence, a bounded linear operator between Banach spaces - we focus on the case of Hilbert spaces - is viewed as only acting linearly and continuously between them qua different spaces with the structure of linear…

Let $U_{FNA}$ be the class of all non-archimedean finite-dimensional Banach spaces. A non-archimedean Gurarii Banach space $G$ over a non-archimedean valued field $K$ is constructed, i.e. a non-archimedean Banach space $G$ of countable type…

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…

We prove several abstract results giving general conditions under which subspaces of linear or multilinear operators on Banach spaces or Banach lattices are closed. Each of these abstract results is followed by concrete applications,…

We present partial results to the following question: Does every infinite dimensional Banach space have an infinite dimensional subspace on which one can define an operator which is not a compact perturbation of a scalar multiplication?

We construct an indecomposable reflexive Banach space $X_{ius}$ such that every infinite dimensional closed subspace contains an unconditional basic sequence. We also show that every operator $T\in \mathcal{B}(X_{ius})$ is of the form…

If $X$ is a separable infinite dimensional Banach space, we construct a bounded and linear operator $R$ on $X$ such that $$ A_R=\{x \in X, \|R^tx\| \rightarrow \infty\} $$ is not dense and has non empty interior with the additional property…

We construct an infinite dimensional Banach space of continuous functions C(K) such that every one-to-one operator on C(K) is onto.

Let $T$ be a bounded linear operator on a (real or complex) Banach space $X$. If $(a_n)$ is a sequence of non-negative numbers tending to 0. Then, the set of $x \in X$ such that $\|T^nx\| \geqslant a_n \|T^n\|$ for infinitely many $n$'s has…

We answer the question of W.T. Gowers, giving an example of a bounded operator on a subspace of Gowers unconditional space which is not a strictly singular perturbation of a restriction of a diagonal operator. We make some observations on…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be separable Banach spaces and $T:X\to Y$ be a bounded linear operator. We characterize the non-separability of $T^*(Y^*)$ by means of fixing properties of the operator $T$.

Given a separable Banach space $E$, we construct an extremely non-complex Banach space (i.e. a space satisfying that $\|Id + T^2\|=1+\|T^2\|$ for every bounded linear operator $T$ on it) whose dual contains $E^*$ as an $L$-summand. We also…

We prove the existence of the invariant subspaces of some operators in a real Banach space. For example, linear isometries have invariant subspaces
