Common Hypercyclic Vectors and the Hypercyclicity Criterion

An operator on a separable, infinite dimensional Banach space satisfies the Hypercyclicity Criterion if and only if the associated left multiplication operator is hypercyclic; see [14], [16], [29]. By examining paths of operators where each operator along the path satisfies the criterion, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a path of left multiplication operators to have an SOT-dense set of common hypercyclic vectors. As a corollary, we establish a natural sufficient condition for a path of operators to have a common hypercyclic subspace.     

Hypercyclic subspaces for Fréchet space operators

A continuous linear operator is hypercyclic if there is an x∈X such that the orbit {Tnx} is dense, and such a vector x is said to be hypercyclic for T. Recent progress show that it is possible to characterize Banach space operators that have a hypercyclic subspace, i.e., an infinite dimensional closed subspace H⊆X of, except for zero, hypercyclic vectors. The following is known to hold: A Banach space operator T has a hypercyclic subspace if there is a sequence (ni) and an infinite dimensional closed subspace E⊆X such that T is hereditarily hypercyclic for (ni) and Tni→0 pointwise on E. In this note we extend this result to the setting of Fréchet spaces that admit a continuous norm, and study some applications for important function spaces. As an application we also prove that any infinite dimensional separable Fréchet space with a continuous norm admits an operator with a hypercyclic subspace.     

Subspace hypercyclicity

A bounded linear operator T on Hilbert space is subspace-hypercyclic for a subspace M if there exists a vector whose orbit under T intersects the subspace in a relatively dense set. We construct examples to show that subspace-hypercyclicity is interesting, including a nontrivial subspace-hypercyclic operator that is not hypercyclic. There is a Kitai-like criterion that implies subspace-hypercyclicity and although the spectrum of a subspace-hypercyclic operator must intersect the unit circle, not every component of the spectrum will do so. We show that, like hypercyclicity, subspace-hypercyclicity is a strictly infinite-dimensional phenomenon. Additionally, compact or hyponormal operators can never be subspace-hypercyclic.     

Hypercyclic Subspaces on Fréchet Spaces Without Continuous Norm

Known results about hypercyclic subspaces concern either Fréchet spaces with a continuous norm or the space ω. We fill the gap between these spaces by investigating Fréchet spaces without continuous norm. To this end, we divide hypercyclic subspaces into two types: the hypercyclic subspaces M for which there exists a continuous seminorm p such that ${M \cap {\rm ker} p = \{0\}}$ and the others. For each of these types of hypercyclic subspaces, we establish some criteria. This investigation permits us to generalize several results about hypercyclic subspaces on Fréchet spaces with a continuous norm and about hypercyclic subspaces on ω. In particular, we show that each infinite-dimensional separable Fréchet space supports a mixing operator with a hypercyclic subspace.     

Hypercyclic subspaces and weighted shifts

We first generalize the results of León-Saavedra and Müller (2006) [10] on hypercyclic subspaces to sequences of operators on Fréchet spaces with a continuous norm. Then we study the particular case of iterates of an operator T   and show a simple criterion for having no hypercyclic subspace. Finally we deduce from this criterion a characterization of weighted shifts with hypercyclic subspaces on the spaces l^p$l^p$ or _c0$c_0$, on the space of entire functions and on certain Köthe sequence spaces. We also prove that if P is a non-constant polynomial and D   is the differentiation operator on the space of entire functions then P(D)$P(D)$ possesses a hypercyclic subspace.     

Hypercyclic subspaces in omega

We show that any countable family of operators of the form P(B), where P is a non-constant polynomial and B is the backward shift operator on ω, the countably infinite product of lines, has a common hypercyclic subspace.     

Pathological hypercyclic operators

We exhibit a hypercyclic operator whose square is not hypercyclic. Our operator is necessarily unbounded since a result of S. Ansari asserts that powers of a hypercyclic bounded operator are also hypercyclic. We also exhibit an unbounded Hilbert space operator whose non-zero vectors are hypercyclic.

Hypercyclic subspaces of a Banach space

Recently a lot of research has been done on hypercyclicity of a bounded linear operator on a Banach space, based on the hypercyclicity criterion obtained by Kitai in 1982, and independently by Gethner and Shapiro in 1987. By combining this criterion with one extra condition, Montes-Rodríguez obtained in 1996 a sufficient condition for the operator to have a closed infinite dimensional hypercyclic subspace, with a very technical proof. Since then, this result has been used extensively to generate new results on hypercyclic subspaces. In the present paper, we give a simple proof of the result of Montes-Rodríguez, by first establishing a few elementary results about the algebra of operators on a Banach space.

Perturbations of hypercyclic vectors

We show that a linear operator can have an orbit that comes within a bounded distance of every point, yet is not dense. We also prove that such an operator must be hypercyclic. This gives a more general form of the hypercyclicity criterion. We also show that a sufficiently small perturbation of a hypercyclic vector is still hypercyclic.     

Hypercyclic subspaces in Fréchet spaces

In this note, we show that every infinite-dimensional separable Fréchet space admitting a continuous norm supports an operator for which there is an infinite-dimensional closed subspace consisting, except for zero, of hypercyclic vectors. The family of such operators is even dense in the space of bounded operators when endowed with the strong operator topology. This completes the earlier work of several authors.

     

算子空间上的左乘映射

Let X be a separable infinite dimensional Banach space and B(X) denote its operator algebra,the algebra of all bounded linear operators T : X → X.Define a left multiplication mapping LT : B(X) → B(X) by LT (V ) = T V,V ∈ B(X).We investigate the connections between hypercyclic and chaotic behaviors of the left multiplication mapping LT on B(X) and that of operator T on X.We obtain that LT is SOT-hypercyclic if and only if T satisfies the Hypercyclicity Criterion.If we define chaos on B(X) as SOT-hypercyclicity plus SOT-dense subset of periodic points,we also get that LT is chaotic if and only if T is chaotic in the sense of Devaney.

Harmonic functions of linear growth on solvable groups

We answer a question posed by Bonilla and Grosse-Erdmann by showing that the operators P(D) on the space of entire functions H(C), where D is the differentiation operator and P is a polynomial, do not possess a frequently hypercyclic subspace.     

Invariant measures for frequently hypercyclic operators

We investigate frequently hypercyclic and chaotic linear operators from a measure-theoretic point of view. Among other things, we show that any frequently hypercyclic operator T acting on a reflexive Banach space admits an invariant probability measure with full support, which may be required to vanish on the set of all periodic vectors for T  ; that there exist frequently hypercyclic operators on the sequence space _c0$c_0$ admitting no ergodic measure with full support; and that if an operator admits an ergodic measure with full support, then it has a comeager set of distributionally irregular vectors. We also give some necessary and sufficient conditions (which are satisfied by all the known chaotic operators) for an operator T to admit an invariant measure supported on the set of its hypercyclic vectors and belonging to the closed convex hull of its periodic measures. Finally, we give a Baire category proof of the fact that any operator with a perfectly spanning set of unimodular eigenvectors admits an ergodic measure with full support.     

Invariant manifolds of hypercyclic vectors for the real scalar case

We show that every hypercyclic operator on a real locally convex vector space admits a dense invariant linear manifold of hypercyclic vectors.

     

Hypercyclic composition operators on Hv0‐spaces

We consider analytic self‐maps φ on $\mathbf {D}$ and prove that the composition operator C_φ acting on $H_{v}^0$ is hypercyclic if φ is an automorphism or a hyperbolic non‐automorphic symbol with no fixed point. We give examples of weights v and parabolic non‐automorphisms φ on $\mathbf {D}$ which yield non‐hypercyclic composition operators C_φ on $H_{v}^0$.     

Spectral theory and hypercyclic subspaces

A vector in a Hilbert space is called hypercyclic for a bounded operator if the orbit is dense in . Our main result states that if satisfies the Hypercyclicity Criterion and the essential spectrum intersects the closed unit disk, then there is an infinite-dimensional closed subspace consisting, except for zero, entirely of hypercyclic vectors for . The converse is true even if is a hypercyclic operator which does not satisfy the Hypercyclicity Criterion. As a consequence, other characterizations are obtained for an operator to have an infinite-dimensional closed subspace of hypercyclic vectors. These results apply to most of the hypercyclic operators that have appeared in the literature. In particular, they apply to bilateral and backward weighted shifts, perturbations of the identity by backward weighted shifts, multiplication operators and composition operators. The main result also applies to the differentiation operator and the translation operator defined on certain Hilbert spaces consisting of entire functions. We also obtain a spectral characterization of the norm-closure of the class of hypercyclic operators which have an infinite-dimensional closed subspace of hypercyclic vectors.

     

Common hypercyclic vectors for the conjugate class of a hypercyclic operator

Given a separable, infinite dimensional Hilbert space, it was recently shown by the authors that there is a path of chaotic operators, which is dense in the operator algebra with the strong operator topology, and along which every operator has the exact same dense Gδ set of hypercyclic vectors. In the present work, we show that the conjugate set of any hypercyclic operator on a separable, infinite dimensional Banach space always contains a path of operators which is dense with the strong operator topology, and yet the set of common hypercyclic vectors for the entire path is a dense Gδ set. As a corollary, the hypercyclic operators on such a Banach space form a connected subset of the operator algebra with the strong operator topology.
