As is well known absolute convergence and unconditional convergence for series are equivalent only in finite dimensional Banach spaces. Replacing the classical notion of absolutely summing operators by the notion of 1 summing operators \[…

We define new symbol classes for pseudodifferntial operators and investigate their pseudodifferential calculus. The symbol classes are parametrized by commutative convolution algebras. To every solid convolution algebra over a lattice we…

Given a Banach space X and a subspace Y, the pair (X,Y) is said to have the approximation property (AP) provided there is a net of finite rank bounded linear operators on X all of which leave the subspace Y invariant such that the net…

The algebraic structures underlying quasi-exact solvability for spin 1/2 Hamiltonians in one dimension are studied in detail. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a matrix second-order differential operator preserving a space of wave…

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…

It is an open problem whether an infinite-dimensional amenable Banach algebra exists whose underlying Banach space is reflexive. We give sufficient conditions for a reflexive, amenable Banach algebra to be finite-dimensional (and thus a…

We describe necessary and sufficient conditions for a $J$-dissipative operator in a Krein space to have maximal semidefinite invariant subspaces. The semigroup properties of the restrictions of an operator to these subspaces are studied.…

Let $A$ be a bounded linear operator and $P$ a bounded linear projection on a Banach space $X$. We show that the operator semigroup $(e^{t(A-kP)})_{t \ge 0}$ converges to a semigroup on a subspace of $X$ as $k \to \infty$ and we compute the…

In the short note we prove that for every $0<p<1$, there exists an infinite dimensional closed linear subspace of $\mathcal{L}\left( \ell_{p};\ell_{p}\right) $ every nonzero element of which is non $(r,s)$-absolutely summing operator for…

By strengthening one of the hypotheses of a well-known sufficient condition for the hypercyclicity of linear operators in Banach spaces, we arrive at a sufficient condition for linear chaos and reveal consequences of the latter for…

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 $T$.

In this paper we study the reflexivity of a unital strongly closed algebra of operators with complemented invariant subspace lattice on a Banach space. We prove that if such an algebra contains a complete Boolean algebra of projections of…

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…

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.

For $X$ an infinite dimensional Banach space, we contribute to the study of the Banach algebra $L(X)/S(X)$, where $S(X)$ is the ideal of strictly singular operators. We extend results of Ferenczi-Galego (2007) by proving that $\|I-J\|_S…

We use the method of atomic decomposition and a new family of Banach spaces to study the action of transfer operators associated to piecewise-defined maps. It turns out that these transfer operators are quasi-compact even when the…

It is shown that if $1<p<\infty$ and $X$ is a subspace or a quotient of an $\ell_p$-direct sum of finite dimensional Banach spaces, then for any compact operator $T$ on $X$ such that $\|I+T\|>1$, the operator $I+T$ attains its norm. A…

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…

Non-commutative $L^p$-spaces are shown to constitute examples of a class of Banach quasi *-algebras called CQ*-algebras. For $p\geq 2$ they are also proved to possess a {\em sufficient} family of bounded positive sesquilinear forms…

We use the injective envelope to study quasimultipliers of operator spaces. We prove that all representable operator algebra products that an operator space can be endowed with are induced by quasimultipliers. We obtain generalizations of…
