A unifying approach to closed subspaces of linear and multilinear operators

We prove several abstract results giving general conditions under which subspaces of linear or multilinear operators on Banach spaces or Banach lattices are closed. Each of these abstract results is followed by concrete applications, concerning classes of linear/multilinear operators already studied as well as new classes.

On hypercyclic spaces and (common) $\mathscr{U}$-frequently hypercyclic spaces

Let $B$ be an unilateral weighted backward shift on $\ell_p$, $1 \leq p < \infty$, that admits a $\mathscr{U}$-frequently hypercyclic subspace. We prove that $B$ admits such a subspace free of frequently hypercyclic vectors. The proof technique we develop also allows us to prove that $B$ admits a hypercyclic subspace free of $\mathscr{U}$-frequently hypercyclic vectors, and to solve a question posed by Bès and Menet in 2015 on the existence of common $\mathscr{U}$-frequently hypercyclic subspaces.

L- and M-weakly compact multilinear operators and their linear adjoints

Let $X_1, \ldots, X_m$ be Banach spaces and let $E_1, \ldots, E_m,F$ be Banach lattices. Our main results read as follows: (i) The linear adjoint $A^*$ of a continuous multilinear operator $A \colon X_1 \times \cdots \times X_m \to F$ is $M$-weakly compact if and only if $A$ is $L$-weakly compact. (ii) The linear adjoint $A^*$ of a multilinear operator of order bounded variation $A \colon E_1 \times \cdots \times E_m \to F$ is $L$-weakly compact if and only if the linearization of $A$ on the positive projective tensor product is $M$-weakly compact. In our way to prove these results, we develop the basic theory of linear adjoints of multilinear operators between Riesz spaces, we prove that multilinear operators of order bounded variation between Banach lattices are continuous, and we explore different notions of multilinear operators of $M$-weakly compact-type.

Compact positive multilinear operators on Banach lattices

Let $1 < p_1, \ldots, p_n < \infty, 1\leq q < \infty$ be such that $\sum\limits_{i=1}^n \frac{1}{p_i} < \frac{1}{q}$ and let $μ_1, \ldots, μ_n, ν$ be arbitrary measures. Generalizing known linear and multilinear results, we prove that all positive $n$-linear operators from $\ell_{p_1} \times \cdots \times \ell_{p_n}$ to $L_q(ν)$ and from $L_{p_1}(μ_1) \times \cdots \times L_{p_1}(μ_n)$ to $\ell_{q}$ are compact. This result, along with other related ones concerning free Banach lattices, shall emerge as consequences of some facts we prove about $M$-weakly compact multilinear operators on Banach lattices.

On the duality of DW-compact operators and DW-DP operators

We give a necessary condition and a sufficient condition on the Banach lattices E and F so that an operator from E to F is DW-compact whenever its adjoint is DW-compact. We do the same, with different conditions, for DW-DP operators. Moreover, we characterize the Banach lattices E and F for which the adjoint of every DW-compact operator from E to F is DW-compact.

Infinite dimensional spaces consisting of sequences that do not converge to zero

Given a map $f \colon E \longrightarrow F$ between Banach spaces (or Banach lattices), a set $A$ of $E$-valued bounded sequences, ${\bf x} \in A$ and a vector topology $τ$ on $F$, we investigate the existence of an infinite dimensional Banach space (or Banach lattice) containing a subsequence of ${\bf x}$ and consisting, up to the origin, of sequences $(x_j)_{j=1}^\infty$ belonging to $A$ such that $(f(x_j))_{j=1}^\infty$ does not converge to zero with respect to $τ$. The applications we provide encompass the improvement of known results, as well as new results, concerning Banach spaces/Banach lattices not satisfying classical properties and linear/nonlinear maps not belonging to well studied classes.

Arens extensions of disjointness preserving multilinear operators on Riesz spaces and Banach lattices

Let $E_1, \ldots, E_m$ be (non necessarily Archimedean) Riesz spaces, let $F$ be an Archimedean Riesz space and let $A \colon E_1 \times \cdots \times E_m \to F$ be a regular disjointness preserving $m$-linear operator. We prove that all Arens extensions of $A$ are disjointness preserving if either $A$ has finite lattice rank or the spaces are Banach lattices and $F^*$ has a Schauder basis consisting of disjointness preserving functionals.

On frequently supercyclic operators and an F_Γ-hypercyclicity criterior with applications

Given a Furstenberg family F and a subset Γ of C, we introduce and explore the notions of F_Γ-hypercyclic operator and F-hypercyclic scalar set. First, the study of F_C-hypercyclic operators yields new interesting information about frequently supercyclic, U-frequently supercyclic, reiteratively supercyclic and supercyclic operators. Then we provide a criterion for identifying F_Γ-hypercyclic operators. As applications of this criterion, we show that any unilateral pseudo-shift operator on c_0(N) or l_p(N) is F_Γ-hypercyclic for every unbounded subset Γ of C. Moreover, under the same condition on Γ, we show that any separable infinite-dimensional Banach space supports an F_Γ-hypercyclic operator. Finally, our study provides sufficient and necessary conditions for a subset Γ of C to be a hypercyclic scalar set. These results give partial answers to a question raised by Charpentier, Ernst, and Menet in 2016.

Operators whose adjoints and second adjoints are almost Dunford-Pettis

First we characterize the Banach lattices E whose biduals have the positive Schur property by means of second adjoints of operators on E being almost Dunford-Pettis. Next we extend some known results concerning conditions on the Banach lattices E and F under which the adjoint T* and the second adjoint T** of any positive almost Dunford-Pettis operator T from E to F are almost Dunford-Pettis. Finally, we prove when T* and T** are almost Dunford-Pettis for any (non necessarily almost Dunford-Pettis) T that is either bounded, regular, order bounded or weakly compact.

Zero sets of homogeneous polynomials containing infinite dimensional spaces

Let $X$ be a (real or complex) infinite dimensional linear space. We establish conditions on a homogeneous polynomial $P$ on $X$ so that, if $W$ is any finite dimensional subspace of $X$ on which $P$ vanishes, then $P$ vanishes on an infinite dimensional subspace of $X$ containing $W$. In the complex case, this is a step beyond the classical result due to Plichko and Zagorodnyuk. Applications to the real case are also provided.

Banach lattices of homogeneous polynomials not containing $c_0$

First we develop a technique to construct Banach lattices of homogeneous polynomials. We obtain, in particular, conditions for the linear spans of all positive compact and weakly compact $n$-homogeneous polynomials between the Banach lattices $E$ and $F$, denoted by ${\cal P}_{\cal K}^r(^n E; F)$ and $\mathcal{P}_{\mathcal{W}}^r(^n E; F)$, to be Banach lattices with the polynomial regular norm. Next we study when the following are equivalent for ${\cal I} = {\cal K}$ or ${\cal I} = {\cal W}$: (1) The space $\mathcal{P}^r(^n E; F)$ of regular polynomials contains no copy of $c_0$. (2) ${\cal P}_{\mathcal{I}}^r(^n E; F)$ contains no copy of $c_0$. (3) ${\cal P}_{\mathcal{I}}^r(^n E; F)$ is a projection band in $\mathcal{P}^r(^n E; F)$. (4) Every positive polynomial in $\mathcal{P}^r(^n E; F)$ belongs to ${\cal P}_{\cal I}^r(^nE;F)$. The result we obtain in the compact case can be regarded as a lattice polynomial Kalton theorem. Most of our results and examples are new even in the linear case $n = 1$.

Spaceability of sets of non-injective maps

Generalizing a recent result on lineability of sets of non-injective linear operators, we prove, for quite general linear spaces $A$ of maps from an arbitraty set to a sequence space, that, for every $0 \neq f \in A$, the subset of $A$ of non-injective maps contains an infinite dimensional subspace of $A$ containing $f$. We provide aplications of the main result to spaces of linear operators between quasi-Banach spaces, to spaces of linear operators belonging to an operator ideal, and, in the nonlinear setting, to linear spaces of homogeneous polynomials and to linear spaces of vector-valued Lispshitz functions on metric spaces.

Representation of sequence classes by operator ideals

It is well known that weakly $p$-summable sequences in a Banach space $E$ are associated to bounded operators from $\ell_{p^*}$ to $E$, and unconditionally $p$-summable sequences in $E$ are associated to compact operators from $\ell_{p^*}$ to $E$. Generalizing these results to a quite wide environment, we characterize the classes of Banach spaces-valued sequences that are associated to (or represented by) some Banach operator ideal. Using these characterizations, we decide, among all sequence classes that usually appear in the literature, which are represented by some Banach operator ideal and which are not. Moreover, to each class that is represented by some Banach operator ideal, we show an ideal that represents it. Illustrative examples and additional applications are provided.

Disjoint Dunford-Pettis-type properties in Banach lattices

New characterizations of the disjoint Dunford-Pettis property of order $p$ (disjoint $DPP_p$) are proved and applied to show that a Banach lattice of cotype $p$ has the disjoint $DPP_p$ whenever its dual has this property. The disjoint Dunford-Pettis$^*$ property of order $p$ (disjoint $DP^*P_p$) is thoroughly investigated. Close connections with the positive Schur property of order $p$, with the disjoint $DPP_p$, with the $p$-weak $DP^*$ property and with the positive $DP^*$ property of order $p$ are established. In a final section we study the polynomial versions of the disjoint $DPP_p$ and of the disjoint $DP^*P_p$.

Disjoint $p$-convergent operators and their adjoints

First we give conditions on a Banach lattice $E$ so that an operator $T$ from $E$ to any Banach space is disjoint $p$-convergent if and only if $T$ is almost Dunford-Pettis. Then we study when adjoints of positive operators between Banach lattices are disjoint $p$-convergent. For instance, we prove that the following conditions are equivalent for all Banach lattices $E$ and $F$: (i) A positive operator $T \colon E \to F$ is almost weak $p$-convergent if and only if $T^*$ is disjoint $p$-convergent; (ii) $E^*$ has order continuous norm or $F^*$ has the positive Schur property of order $p$. Very recent results are improved, examples are given and applications of the main results are provided.

Symmetric ideals of generalized summing multilinear operators

Let $X_1, \ldots, X_n,Y$ be classes of Banach spaces-valued sequences. An $n$-linear operator $A$ between Banach spaces belongs to the ideal of $(X_1, \ldots, X_n;Y)$-summing multilinear operators if $(A(x_j^1, \ldots, x_j^n))_{j=1}^\infty$ belongs to $Y$ whenever $(x_j^k)_{j= 1}^\infty$ belongs to $X_k, k = 1, \ldots, n$. In this paper we develop techniques to generate non trivial symmetric ideals of this type. Illustrative examples and additional applications of the techniques are provided.

Grothendieck's compactness principle for the absolute weak topology

We prove the following results: (i) Every absolutely weakly compact set in a Banach lattice is absolutely weakly sequentially compact. (ii) The converse of (i) holds if $E$ is separable or $B_{E^{**}}$ is absolutely weak$^*$ compact. (iii) Every absolutely weakly compact subset of a Banach lattice is contained in the closed convex hull of an absolutely weakly null sequence if and only if the Banach lattice has the positive Schur property. Examples and applications are provided.
