The main goal of this article is to show that for every (reflexive) infinite-dimensional Banach space $X$ there exists a reflexive Banach space $Y$ and $T, R \in \mathcal{L}(X,Y)$ such that $R$ is a rank-one operator, $\|T+R\|>\|T\|$ but…

In this article, we introduce a four-point analogue of Banach-type, Kannan-type, and Chatterjea-type contractions, and examine their properties. We establish sufficient conditions under which these mappings achieve fixed points in a…

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…

In this paper, we construct maximally monotone operators that are not of Gossez's dense-type (D) in many nonreflexive spaces. Many of these operators also fail to possess the Br{\o}nsted-Rockafellar (BR) property. Using these operators, we…

We study several notions of boundedness for operators. It is known that any power bounded operator is absolutely Ces\`aro bounded and strong Kreiss bounded (in particular, uniformly Kreiss bounded). The converses do not hold in general. In…

We show that if the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is bounded on a reflexive Banach function space $X(\mathbb{R})$ and on its associate space $X'(\mathbb{R})$, then the space $X(\mathbb{R})$ has an unconditional wavelet basis. As a…

An equivalent formulation of the von Neumann inequality states that the backward shift $S^*$ on $\ell_{2}$ is extremal, in the sense that if $T$ is a Hilbert space contraction, then $\|p(T)\| \leq \|p(S^*)\|$ for each polynomial $p$. We…

Let $X$ be a real reflexive Banach space and $X^*$ be its dual space. Let $G_1$ and $G_2$ be open subsets of $X$ such that $\bar G_2\subset G_1$, $0\in G_2$, and $G_1$ is bounded. Let $L: X\supset D(L)\to X^*$ be a densely defined linear…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of contractive operators and strongly continuous semigroups on separable Hilbert spaces using the notion of rigidity. In particular, we show that a "typical" contraction $T$ contains the unit circle times…

Akcoglu and Suchaston proved the following result: Let $T:L^1(X,{\cf},\m)\to L^1(X,{\cf},\m)$ be a positive contraction. Assume that for $z\in L^1(X,{\cf},\m)$ the sequence $(T^nz)$ converges weakly in $L^1(X,{\cf},\m)$, then either…

By a bounded backward sequence of the operator $T$ we mean a bounded sequence $\{x_n\}$ satisfying $Tx_{n+1}=x_n$. In \cite{Pa} we have characterized contractions with strongly stable nonunitary part in terms of bounded backward sequences.…

We study existence of linear isometric embedding of $\ell_p^m$ into $S_\infty,$ for $1\leq p< \infty$ and unique operator space structure on two dimensional Banach spaces. For $p\in(2,\infty)\cup\{1\},$ we show that indeed $\ell_p^2$ does…

Embedding discrete Markov chains into continuous ones is a famous open problem in probability theory with many applications. Inspired by recent progress, we study the closely related questions of embeddability of real and positive operators…

Given a Banach space X and a bounded linear operator T on X, a subspace Y of X is almost invariant under T if TY is a subspace of Y+F for some finite-dimensional ``error'' F. In this paper, we study subspaces that are almost invariant under…

We study, for a continuous linear operator $T$ on an F-space $X$, when the direct sum operator $T\oplus T$ is recurrent on $X\oplus X$. In particular: we establish, for recurrence, the analogous notion to that of (topological) weak-mixing…

This article explores anti-coproximinal and strongly anti-coproximinal subspaces in the spaces of vector-valued continuous functions and operator spaces. We provide a complete characterization of strongly anti-coproximinal subspaces in $…

Motivated by a seminal paper of professor M. Z. Nashed published in 1987 on classification of ill-posed linear operator equations and distinguishing two types of ill-posedness in Banach and Hilbert spaces, we present, illustrate and justify…

We present a sufficient condition for smoothness of bounded linear operators on Banach spaces for the first time. Let $T, A \in B(\mathbb{X}, \mathbb{Y}),$ where $\mathbb{X}$ is a real Banach space and $\mathbb{Y}$ is a real normed linear…

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 \[…

This paper is concerned with the differential sensitivity analysis of variational inequalities in Banach spaces whose solution operators satisfy a generalized Lipschitz condition. We prove a sufficient criterion for the directional…
