On Topological Numerical Transitivity, C*-Transitivity and generalizations

Abstract

Motivated by the concept of numerical hypercyclicity, in this paper, we introduce three new notions in linear dynamics: topological numerical transitivity, generalized numerical transitivity, C*-transitivity. The first notion is defined for operators on general Banach spaces, whereas the latter two are formulated in the setting of operators on Banach algebras. The concept of C*-transitivity is also applicable to operators on the space of Hilbert-Schmidt operators. We prove that these new notions are mutually different, and we also show that they differ from the standard notions in dynamics. In particular, while topological numerical transitivity implies numerical hypercyclicity, as we argue in the paper, we provide examples of numerically hypercyclic and strongly numerically hypercyclic operators that are not topologically numerically transitive. Also, we construct nonsupercyclic C* transitive and generalized numerically transitive operators on the C*-algebra of compact operators on a separable Hilbert space, as well as C*-transitive nonsupercyclic operators on the standard Hilbert C*-module. In addition, we study diagonal operators on finite-dimensional and separable Hilbert spaces, and we obtain complete characterizations of both numerical hypercyclicity and topological numerical transitivity in terms of coefficient-simplex criteria. Further, we provide some sufficient conditions for diagonal operators on the standard Hilbert C*-module to be C*-transitive. All these results are illustrated with concrete examples. At the end of the paper, we compare topological numerical transitivity and C*-transitivity with numerous standard notions in linear dynamics, and we prove that topological numerical transitivity and C*-transitivity genuinely differ from all these standard concepts in dynamics.

Typical dynamical properties of operators on $\ell_p$

We investigate the typical dynamical properties of hypercyclic operators in $\mathcal{L}_M(X)$, the set of all bounded linear operators on $X$ whose norms are at most $M$, when $X=\ell_p$, $1< p<\infty$. We show that, with respect to SOT$^*$, a typical operator $T\in \mathcal{L}_M(X)$ is weakly mixing, is weakly disjoint from a given hypercyclic operator $S$, is not topologically ergodic, and satisfies $(T,T^2,\dotsc,T^k)$ is disjoint hypercyclic for any $k\geq 2$. We also study the typical dynamical properties for the concrete family $\mathcal{M}=\{I+B_w\in \mathcal{L}(X)\colon w\in c_0(\mathbb{Z})\}$, endowed with the norm topology, where $B_w$ is a bilateral weighted backward shift.

A bi-Lipschitz characterization of strong minimum-attainment for Lipschitz maps

We completely characterize the denseness of strongly minimum-attaining Lipschitz functions, a minimum analogue for strongly norm-attaining Lipschitz functions, in terms of bi-Lipschitz embeddings. More precisely, our main result shows that the set of strongly minimum-attaining Lipschitz functions defined on a complete metric space $M$ fails the denseness if and only if $M$ is bi-Lipschitz equivalent to a subset of $\mathbb{R}$ with positive Lebesgue measure, or equivalently, if $M$ admits a bi-Lipschitz embedding into $\mathbb{R}$ and $M$ has positive 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure. As a consequence, we provide an isometric characterization of the pure 1-unrectifiability of $M$ in terms of strongly minimum-attaining Lipschitz maps defined on bi-Lipschitz copies of closed subsets of $M$. Several counterexamples showing that the main result cannot be naturally extended to the vector-valued setting are also presented.

On weak dominance of t-conorms over t-norms

The weak dominance of aggregation operators, particularly between triangular norms (t-norms) and triangular conorms (t-conorms), has attracted considerable attention in aggregation operator theory. While several characterizations have been obtained for Archimedean and continuous cases, a general criterion for continuous t-conorms over continuous t-norms remains to be fully clarified. In this paper, we provide a complete characterization of a continuous t-conorm weakly dominating a continuous t-norm. We first reduce the problem for ordinal sum operators to that for their single Archimedean components, and then express the weak dominance condition entirely in terms of the additive generators of these components. Our approach covers both strict and nilpotent cases uniformly, and recovers the known results for Archimedean operators as a special case.
