We show that the multiples of the backward shift operator on the spaces $\ell_{p}$, $1\leq p<\infty$, or $c_{0}$, when endowed with coordinatewise multiplication, do not possess frequently hypercyclic algebras. More generally, we…

Letting $E$, $F$ be Banach spaces, the main two results of this paper are the following: (1) If every (linear bounded) operator $E\rightarrow F$ is unconditionally converging, then every polynomial from $E$ to $F$ is unconditionally…

It is a longstanding problem whether every contractible Banach algebra is necessarily finite-dimensional. In this note, we confirm this for Banach algebras acting on Banach spaces with the uniform approximation property. This generalizes a…

In this work, given a unital Banach algebra $\A$ and $a\in \A$ such that $a$ has a Moore-Penrose inverse $a^\dagger$, it will be characterized when $aa^\dagger-a^\dagger a$ is invertible. A particular subset of this class of objects will…

Read produced the first example of a Banach space $E_{\text{R}}$ such that the associated Banach algebra $\mathscr{B}(E_{\text{R}})$ of bounded operators admits a discontinuous derivation (J. London Math. Soc. 1989). We generalise Read's…

We show that every Banach algebra A admits a representation on a certain Banach space E. In particular, any Banach algebra A contained in autoperiodic functionals on A such that separate the points of A could be imbedded in B(E) for some…

Let $D$ be the non-split quaternion algebra over $\Q_p$. We prove that a class of admissible unitary Banach space representations of $D^{\times}$ are topologically of finite length.

Let $A=(A_x)$ be a (semi-)continuous field of $C^*$-algebras over a compact Hausdorff space $X$ and let $p=(p_x)$ be a projection in $A$ such that each $p_x\in A_x$ is properly infinite ($x\in X$). Then $p$ is properly infinite if the field…

Let $X$, $Y$, and $Z$ be Banach spaces, and let $\alpha$ be a tensor norm. Let a bounded linear operator $S\in\mathcal{L}(Z,\mathcal{L}(X,Y))$ be given. We obtain (necessary and/or sufficient) conditions for the existence of an operator…

Let $E$ and $F$ be Banach lattices. We show first that the disjointness preserving linear functionals separate the points of any infinite dimensional Banach lattice $E$, which shows that in this case the unbounded disjointness operators…

Let G be a Lie group and E be a locally convex topological G-module. If E is sequentially complete, then E and its space of smooth vectors are modules for the algebra D(G) of compactly supported smooth functions on G. However, the module…

An operator $T$ acting on a Banach space $X$ is said to be super-recurrent if for each open subset $U$ of $X$, there exist $\lambda\in\mathbb{K}$ and $n\in \mathbb{N}$ such that $\lambda T^n(U)\cap U\neq\emptyset$. In this paper, we…

In this paper we answer two questions from [16], by showing that, over any algebraically closed field, $K$, there is a finitely generated, infinitely dimensional algebra $A$ such that algebras $A\otimes_{K}A$ and $A\otimes_{K} A^{op}$ are…

On a reflexive Banach space $X$, if an operator $T$ admits a functional calculus for the absolutely continuous functions on its spectrum $\sigma(T) \subseteq \mathbb{R}$, then this functional calculus can always be extended to include all…

For a tuple $A=(A_0, A_1, ..., A_n)$ of elements in a unital Banach algebra ${\mathcal B}$, its {\em projective spectrum} $p(A)$ is defined to be the collection of $z=[z_0, z_1, ..., z_n]\in \pn$ such that $A(z)=z_0A_0+z_1A_1+... +z_nA_n$…

By a result of Johnson, the Banach space $F=(\bigoplus_{n=1}^\infty \ell_1^n)_{\ell_\infty}$ contains a complemented copy of $\ell_1$. We identify $F$ with a complemented subspace of the space of (bounded, linear) operators on the reflexive…

For an unbounded operator $S$ on a Banach space the existence of invariant subspaces corresponding to its spectrum in the left and right half-plane is proved. The general assumption on $S$ is the uniform boundedness of the resolvent along…

We show that a representation of a Banach algebra $A$ on a Banach space $X$ can be extended to a canonical representation of $A^{**}$ on $X$ if and only if certain orbit maps $A\to X$ are weakly compact. When this is the case, we show that…

Given a Banach space $E$, we ask which closed subspaces may be realised as the kernel of a bounded operator $E \rightarrow E$. We prove some positive results which imply in particular that when $E$ is separable every closed subspace is a…

A remarkable result of Moln\'ar [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 126 (1998), 853-861] states that automorphisms of the algebra of operators acting on a separable Hilbert space is stable under "small" perturbations. More precisely, if $\phi,\psi$…
