Linear dynamics of composition operators on Schwartz spaces
Abstract
In this note, we show that invertible composition operators on S(R) are never generalized hyperbolic and, when the symbol has a fixed point, the corresponding operator fails to have the positive shadowing property. We then establish sufficient conditions on the symbol under which the associated composition operator is positively topologically expansive. In particular, we obtain a complete characterization for affine symbols and prove expansivity for broad classes of odd-degree polynomial symbols, while showing that polynomial symbols of even degree cannot generate topologically expansive operators. Our results reveal a strong connection between the dynamics of the symbol and the linear dynamics of the induced composition operator, and provide new examples and obstructions for topological expansivity in locally convex spaces.
