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 give necessary and sufficient conditions for a bounded operator defined between complex Hilbert spaces to be absolutely norm attaining. We discuss structure of such operators in the case of self-adjoint and normal operators separately.…

We construct a Banach space X of Gowers-Maurey type such that the algebra of bounded operators L(X) is a direct sum of an infinite dimensional reflexive Banach space and the operator ideal of strictly singular operators SS(X).

A complete characterization of nearly-invariant subspaces of finite defect for the backward shift operator acting on the Hardy space is provided in the spirit of Hitt and Sarason's theorem. As a corollary we describe the almost-invariant…

We characterize left symmetric linear operators on a finite dimensional strictly convex and smooth real normed linear space $ \mathbb{X},$ which answers a question raised recently by one of the authors in \cite{S} [D. Sain,…

We study a semigroup $\phi$ of linear operators acting on a Banach space $X$ which satisfies the condition $\codim X_0<\infty$, where $X_0=\{x\in X \mid \phi_t(x)\underset{t\to\infty}\longrightarrow 0\}.$ We show that $X_0$ is closed under…

We give a new proof of a characterization of the closeness of the range of a continuous linear operator and of the closeness of the sum of two closed vector subspaces of a Banach space. Then we state sufficient conditions for the closeness…

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…

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…

In this article we obtain some positive results about the existence of a common nontrivial invariant subspace for $N$-tuples of not necessarily commuting operators on Banach spaces with a Schauder basis. The concept of joint quasinilpotence…

In this paper we characterize Birkhoff-James orthogonality of linear operators defined on a finite dimensional real Banach space $ \mathbb{X}. $ We also explore the symmetry of Birkhoff-James orthogonality of linear operators defined on $…

We consider the shift operator $M_z$, defined on the Bloch space and the little Bloch space and we study the corresponding lattice of invariant subspaces. The index of a closed invariant subspace $E$ is defined as $\text{ind}(E) =…

We prove that if X is any complex separable infinite-dimensional Banach space with an unconditional Schauder decomposition, X supports an operator T which is chaotic and frequently hypercyclic. In contrast with the complex case, we observe…

Let $G$ be an infinite locally compact abelian group. If $X$ is Banach space, we show that if every bounded Fourier multiplier $T$ on $L^2(G)$ has the property that $T\ot Id_X$ is bounded on $L^2(G,X)$ then the Banach space $X$ is…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the Hardy operator to be bounded on a rearrangement invariant quasi-Banach space in terms of its Boyd indices.

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for amenability of the Banach algebra of approximable operators on a Banach space. We further investigate the relationship between amenability of this algebra and factorization of operators,…

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…

Let T and C be two Hilbert space operators. We prove that if T is near, in a certain sense, to an operator completely polynomially dominated with a finite bound by C, then T is similar to an operator which is completely polynomially…

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…

Given a contraction A on a Hilbert space H, an operator T on H is said to be A-invariant if <Tx,x>=<TAx,Ax> for every x in H such that ||Ax||=||x||. In the special case in which both defect indices of A are equal to 1, we show that every…
