Let $A$ be a finite dimensional $Q-$algebra and $\Gamma subset A$ a $Z-$order. We classify those $A$ with the property that $Z^2$ does not embed in $\mathcal{U}(\Gamma)$. We call this last property the hyperbolic property. We apply this in…

Commutators of a large class of bilinear operators and multiplication by functions in a certain subspace of the space of functions of bounded mean oscillations are shown to be jointly compact. Under a similar commutation, fractional…

We prove the existence of algebras of hypercyclic vectors in three cases: convolution operators, composition operators, and backward shift operators.

We solve a number of questions pertaining to the dynamics of linear operators on Hilbert spaces, sometimes by using Baire category arguments and sometimes by constructing explicit examples. In particular, we prove the following results. - A…

Given a commuting $n$-tuple of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space, together with a distinguished cyclic vector, Jim Agler defined a linear functional $\Lambda_{\mathbf{T},h}$ on the polynomial ring…

A radially weighted Besov space $H$ is a space of holomorphic functions on the unit ball $\mathbb{B}_d \subseteq \mathbb{C}^d$ whose $N$-th radial derivative is square integrable with respect to a given admissible radial measure. We write…

We establish the following result, confirming a conjecture of Jean Esterle. For each closed subset $E$ of the unit circle of Lebesgue measure zero, there exists a positive sequence $u_n\to\infty$ with the following property: if $T$ is a…

Criteria for an algebraic operator $T$ on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ to be unitary are established. The main one is written in terms of the convergence of sequences of the form $\{\|T^nh\|\}_{n=0}^{\infty}$ with $h\in…

In this paper we study groups of positive operators on Banach lattices. If a certain factorization property holds for the elements of such a group, the group has a homomorphic image in the isometric positive operators which has the same…

A classical theorem of Hechler asserts that the structure $\left(\omega^\omega,\le^*\right)$ is universal in the sense that for any $\sigma$-directed poset P with no maximal element, there is a ccc forcing extension in which…

By means of hypercyclic operator theory, we complement our previous results on hypercyclic holomorphic maps between complex Euclidean spaces having slow growth rates,by showing {\it abstract abundance} rather than {\it explicit existence}.…

A compact set has computable type if any homeomorphic copy of the set which is semicomputable is actually computable. Miller proved that finite-dimensional spheres have computable type, Iljazovi\'c and other authors established the property…

Suppose that $\mathscr{A}$ is an operator algebra on a Hilbert space $H$. An element $V$ in $\mathscr{A}$ is called an all-derivable point of $\mathscr{A}$ for the strong operator topology if every strong operator topology continuous…

We prove that under certain topological conditions on the set of universal elements of a continuous map $T$ acting on a topological space $X$, that the direct sum $T\oplus M_g$ is universal, where $M_g$ is multiplication by a generating…

For a (not necessarily locally convex) topological vector space $\mathcal{X}$ of holomorphic functions in one complex variable, we show that the shift invariant subspace generated by a set of polynomials is $\mathcal{X}$ if and only if…

Let $X$ be a set of cardinality $\kappa$ such that $\kappa^\omega=\kappa$. We prove that the linear algebra $\mathbb{R}^X$ (or $\mathbb{C}^X$) contains a free linear algebra with $2^\kappa$ generators. Using this, we prove several…

The characteristic function has been an important tool for studying completely non unitary contractions on Hilbert spaces. In this note, we consider completely non-coisometric contractive tuples of commuting operators on a Hilbert space…

We show that several convolution operators on the space of entire functions, such as the MacLane operator, support a dense hypercyclic algebra that is not finitely generated. Birkhoff's operator also has this property on the space of…

In this paper we provide a full characterization of cyclic composition operators defined on the d-dimensional Fock space $\mathcal F(\mathbb C^d)$ in terms of their symbol. Also, we study the supercyclicity and convex-cyclicity of this type…

We provide with criteria for a family of sequences of operators to share a frequently universal vector. These criteria are variants of the classical Frequent Hypercyclicity Criterion and of a recent criterion due to Grivaux, Matheron and…
