Abstract

We introduce several notions of linear dynamics for multivalued linear operators (MLO’s) between separable Fréchet spaces, such as hypercyclicity, topological transitivity, topologically mixing property, and Devaney chaos. We also consider the case of disjointness, in which any of these properties are simultaneously satisfied by several operators. We revisit some sufficient well-known computable criteria for determining those properties. The analysis of the dynamics of extensions of linear operators to MLO’s is also considered.

1 Introduction and preliminaries

Let X, Y be separable Fréchet spaces and {Ti}iI a family of mappings from X to Y. An element xX is said to be universal if every element of Y can be approximated by certain Tix. In other words, if the set {Tix : iI} is dense in Y. Once universality holds, the set of universal vectors is generic, more precisely, it is a dense Gδ set by an application of Baire Category Theorem.

During the 90’s a particular type of universality attracted the interest of many researchers. This was the case when the family of operators was given by the powers of a single operator T, that is Ti : = Ti, i ∈ ℕ0. This particular case of universality is known as hypercyclicity, and such a vector x is known as a hypercyclic vector. In [1], examples and results in universality were collected, with special attention to the first remarkable results in hypercyclicity. This compendium helped to attract the interest of many researchers to this new area. The recent monographs [2, 3] collected the advances in the study of the dynamics of linear continuous operators in Banach and Fréchet spaces during last years.

One of the core results of linear dynamics is the Hypercyclicity Criterion (HC) [4, 5]. It states that a linear operator T is hypercyclic if it has a right inverse S and a dense subset X0, such that the orbits by T and by S of the elements of X0 tend to 0. Some generalizations have been later introduced. In the situation where T is invertible, the operators T and T− 1 are hypercyclic at the same time. The hypothesis of the (HC) can be significantly relaxed, see [3]. Additionally, there are equivalent formulations, such as the blow-up/collapse criterion, that can be formulated without explicit reference to the aforementioned right inverses, see [1, 6].

Multivalued functions often arise as inverses of functions that are not injective. The study of the dynamics of functions that take sets as image of certain elements has been considered by several authors. Chaotic properties for set valued maps between spaces of compact sets endowed with the Hausdorff distance were initially considered by Román-Flores [7], Peris [8] and Banks [9]. Chaos on hyperspaces was considered in [10]. However the study of linear dynamics for multivalued linear operators has not been considered yet.

In this work, we consider hypercyclicity, topological transitivity, topologically mixing property, and chaos (in the sense of Devaney) for MLO’s, as well as their disjoint versions. The paper is organized as follows: In Section 2, we recall the most important definitions from the theory of multivalued linear operators. Section 3 is completely devoted to survey the formulation of those linear dynamical properties for multivalued linear operators. Some well-known sufficient criteria are adapted to these settings. The scope of the results is determined by means of some illustrative examples. Finally, the dynamics of the extensions of linear operators to MLO’s is considered in Section 4.

2 Multivalued linear operators

We present a brief overview of the necessary definitions and properties of multivalued linear operators. For more details, we refer the reader to the monographs of Cross [11], Favini and Yagi [12], Álvarez, Cross and Wilcox [13, 14], and by the third named author [15].

We use the standard notation throughout the paper. Let X be a separable Fréchet space, i.e. a complete, metrizable, locally convex space, over the field 𝕂. The abbreviation cs(X) stands for the fundamental system of continuous seminorms defining the topology of X. We also define the ball of center xX and radius ε > 0 with respect to p ∈ cs (X) as Bp(x, ϵ) : = {yX : p(xy) < ε}. If X is a Banach space, then the norm of an element xX is denoted by ∥x∥.

Assuming that Y is another separable Fréchet space, then we denote by L(X, Y) the space consisting of all continuous linear operators from X to Y, and if X = Y we simply denote it as L(X). Let 𝓑 be the family of bounded subsets of X. Given p ∈ cs (Y), B ∈ 𝓑, we define pB(T) := supxBp(Tx) for every TL(X, Y). Then the set {pB : B ∈ 𝓑, p ∈ cs (Y)} defines a fundamental system of seminorms on L(X, Y) that induces the Hausdorff locally convex topology of the convergence over the bounded sets of X.

We now recall the definition of a multivalued linear operator. We denote by P(Y) the family of subsets of Y.

Definition 2.1

Let X and Y be Fréchet spaces. A multivalued map (multimap) 𝓐: XP(Y) such that for every open set VP(Y) satisfies that 𝓐− 1(V) is said to be a multivalued linear operator (MLO) if the following holds:

  1. The domain of 𝓐, D(𝓐) := {xX : 𝓐x ≠ ∅}, is a linear subspace of X;

  2. 𝓐x + 𝓐y ⊆ 𝓐(x + y), for every x, yD(𝓐) and λ 𝓐x ⊆ 𝓐(λ x), for every λ ∈ 𝕂, xD(𝓐).

We denote the set of these operators as ML(X, Y). If X = Y, then we say that 𝓐 is an MLO in X, and we denote this set by ML(X).

An almost immediate consequence of the definition is that 𝓐x + 𝓐y = 𝓐(x + y) and λ𝓐x = 𝓐(λ x) for all x, yD(𝓐), λ ≠ 0. Furthermore, λ𝓐x + η 𝓐y = 𝓐(λ x + η y), for every x, yD(𝓐) and λ, η ∈ 𝕂 with |λ| + |η| ≠ 0.

If 𝓐 is an MLO, then the image of 0 by 𝓐, 𝓐0, is a linear manifold in Y and 𝓐x = f + 𝓐0 for any xD(𝓐) and f ∈ 𝓐x. We denote the range of 𝓐 as R(𝓐) := ∪{𝓐x : xD(𝓐)}.

Definition 2.2

Given 𝓐, BML(X, Y), we define

  1. the kernel of 𝓐 as N(𝓐) := {xD(𝓐) : 0 ∈ 𝓐x}.

  2. the sum 𝓐 + 𝓑 as (𝓐 + 𝓑)x := 𝓐x + 𝓑x, xD(𝓐 + 𝓑) with D(𝓐 + 𝓑) := D(𝓐) ∩ D(𝓑).

  3. the scalar multiplication z 𝓐, with z ∈ 𝕂, as (z𝓐)(x) := z𝓐x, xD(𝓐) with D(z𝓐) := D(𝓐).

    It can be simply verified that 𝓐 + 𝓑, z𝓐 ∈ ML(X, Y), too. Moreover, (Ω z)𝓐 = Ω(z𝓐) = z(Ω 𝓐), for every z, Ω ∈ 𝕂.

  4. the direct sum of k copies of 𝓐 with itself, k ∈ ℕ, on Xk=XXk as

    AAk(x1,x2,,xk):={(y1,y2,,yk):yiAxiforalli=1,2,...,k}=Ax1××AxkP(Yk).

    with D(AAk):=D(A)D(A)k.

  5. the adjoint 𝓐* : Y*P(X*) of 𝓐 by its graph

    A:={(y,x)Y×X:y,y=x,xforallpairs(x,y)A}.

    It is simply verified that 𝓐*ML(Y*, X*), and thaty*, y〉 = 0 whenever y*D(𝓐*) and y ∈ 𝓐0.

If X = Y, we also define the product 𝓑𝓐x := ∪{𝓑y : yD(𝓑) ∩ 𝓐x} with D(𝓑𝓐) := {xD(𝓐) : D(𝓑) ∩ 𝓐x ≠ ∅}. Then, the integer powers of an MLO 𝓐 ∈ ML(X) are recursively defined as follows: 𝓐0 := I, and if 𝓐n − 1 is defined, we set

Anx:=(AAn1)x={Ay:yD(A)An1x},withD(An):={xD(An1):D(A)An1x}.

We define the inverse 𝓐− 1 of 𝓐 ∈ ML(X) as

A1y:={xD(A):yAx}

on D(𝓐− 1) := R(𝓐). We can prove inductively that (𝓐n)− 1 = (𝓐n − 1)− 1𝓐− 1 = (𝓐− 1)n = :𝓐n, n ∈ ℕ and D((λ − 𝓐)n) = D(𝓐n), for every n ∈ ℕ0, λ ∈ 𝕂. Moreover, if 𝓐 is single-valued, then the above definitions are consistent with the usual definition of powers of 𝓐. According to this, we set D(A):=nND(An).

For every 𝓐 ∈ ML(X, Y) we define Aˇ := {(x, y) : xD(𝓐), y ∈ 𝓐x}. Then 𝓐 is an MLO if, and only if, Aˇ is a linear relation in X × Y, i.e., Aˇ is a linear subspace of X × Y.

Suppose that X is a linear subspace of X and 𝓐 ∈ ML(X, Y). Then we define the restriction of 𝓐 ∈ ML(X, Y) to the subspace X, denoted by 𝓐|X for short, as 𝓐|Xx := 𝓐x, xD(𝓐|X) with D(𝓐|X) := D(𝓐) ∩ X. Clearly, 𝓐|XML(X, Y), too. It is well known that 𝓐 ∈ ML(X, Y) is injective (resp., single-valued) if A1A=I|D(A)X(resp.,AA1=I|R(A)Y).

If 𝓐 ∈ ML(X, Y) and 𝓑 ∈ ML(X, Y), then we write 𝓐 ⊆ 𝓑 if D(𝓐) ⊆ D(𝓑) and 𝓐x ⊆ 𝓑x for all xD(𝓐). If SL(X, Y) has domain D(S) = D(𝓐) and S ⊆ 𝓐, then S is called a section of 𝓐, and then we have 𝓐x = Sx + 𝓐O, xD(𝓐) and R(𝓐) = R(S) + 𝓐O.

An element λ ∈ 𝕂 is an eigenvalue of 𝓐 if there exists some vector xX ∖ {0} such that λx ∈ 𝓐x; we call x an eigenvector of 𝓐 corresponding to the eigenvalue λ. Observe that, in the purely multivalued case, a vector xX ∖ {0} can be an eigenvector of operator 𝓐 corresponding to different values of scalars λ. The point spectrum of 𝓐, σp(𝓐) for short, is defined as the set of all eigenvalues of 𝓐.

In our work, the multivalued linear operator B− 1A = {(x, y) ∈ X × X : Ax = By} has an important role, where A and B are single-valued linear operators acting between the spaces X and Y, and B is not necessarily injective.

3 Dynamical properties of MLO’S

We recall some of the most significative notions of linear dynamical properties, further details can be found in [2, 3].

Definition 3.1

Let 𝓐 ∈ ML(X) and let xX. Then we say that:

  1. x is a hypercyclic vector of 𝓐 if xD(𝓐) and for each n ∈ ℕ0 and each j ∈ {1, …, N} there exists an element yj,n ∈ 𝓐nx such that the set {yn : n ∈ ℕ} is dense in X. In this case, we say that 𝓐 is hypercyclic.

  2. x is a periodic point of 𝓐 if xD(𝓐) and there exists n ∈ ℕ such that x ∈ 𝓐nx;

  3. 𝓐 is topologically transitive if for every pair of non-empty open sets U, VX there exists n ∈ ℕ such that U ∩ 𝓐n(V) ≠ ∅.

  4. 𝓐 is topologically mixing if for every pair of non-empty open sets U, VX there exists n0 ∈ ℕ such that U ∩ 𝓐n(V) ≠ ∅ holds for nn0.

  5. 𝓐 is chaotic (in the sense of Devaney) if 𝓐 is topologically transitive and the set consisting on all periodic points of 𝓐 is dense in X.

With a similar argument as in the case of linear operators, by Baire’s Category Theorem, the notion of hypercyclicity is equivalent to the one of transitivity, as long as the MLO’s were defined on the whole space X [16, Th. 3.1.6]. Let 𝓐 ∈ ML(X) and let (On)n ∈ ℕ be an open base of the topology of X. Then the set consisting of hypercyclic vectors of 𝓐 is denoted shortly by HC (𝓐) and it can be computed by

HC(A)=nNkNAk(On). (1)

Remark 3.2

The periodic points of 𝓐 form a linear submanifold of X: Suppose that x is a periodic point of 𝓐. Then xD(𝓐) and there exists an integer n ∈ ℕ such that x ∈ 𝓐nx. This implies the existence of yjX (1 ≤ jn − 1) such that (x, y1) ∈ 𝓐, (y1, y2) ∈ 𝓐, …, (yn − 1, x) ∈ 𝓐. Repeating this sequence, we easily get that x ∈ 𝓐knx for all k ∈ ℕ, and the statement holds.

Remark 3.3

On the one hand, one can replace the sequence of powers of 𝓐 ∈ ML(X) by a sequence of MLO’s (𝓐n)n ∈ ℕ, and refer to the notion of universality instead of hypercyclicity, c.f. [1, Def. 2]).

On the other hand, in Definition 3.1, our assumptions on X, as well as on (𝓐n)n ∈ ℕ, 𝓐, (Ajn)nN and 𝓐j can be substantially relaxed (1 ≤ jN). It suffices to suppose that X and Y are topological spaces as well as that 𝓐n are binary relations from X to Y. This notion will be considered in our follow-up research study [17].

Disjointness in linear dynamics was independently introduced by Bernal-González [18] and by Bès and Peris [19], see also [20]. For the sake of completeness, we explicitly state them:

Definition 3.4

Let N ≥ 2, 1 ≤ jN, and 𝓐1, …, 𝓐NML(X). Let xX. Then we say that:

  1. x is a disjoint hypercyclic vector of 𝓐 if xD(𝓐j) and for each n ∈ ℕ0 and each j ∈ {1, …, N} there exists an element yj,nAjnx such that the set {(y1,n, &, yN,n) : n ∈ ℕ} is dense in X ⊕&⊕ X. In this case, we say that 𝓐1, …, 𝓐N are disjoint hypercyclic, or simply d-hypercyclic.

  2. 𝓐1, …, 𝓐N are disjoint topologically transitive, or simply d-topologically transitive if for any choice of non-empty open sets U, V1, …, VnX there exists n ∈ ℕ such that UAn(V)ANn(V).

  3. 𝓐1, …, 𝓐N are disjoint topologically mixing, or simply d-topologically mixing if for any choice of non-empty open sets U, V1, …, VnX there exists n0 ∈ ℕ such that UAn(V)ANn(V) for every nn0.

  4. 𝓐1, …, 𝓐N are disjoint chaotic, or simply d-chaotic if 𝓐1, …, 𝓐N are d-hypercyclic and the set of periodic points, denoted by 𝓟(𝓐1, 𝓐2, …, 𝓐N) := {(x1, x2, …, xN) ∈ XN : ∃n ∈ ℕ with xjAjnxj, j ∈ {1, …, N}}, is dense in XN.

It is clear that any multivalued linear extension of a hypercyclic (chaotic) single-valued linear operator is again hypercyclic (chaotic). It is also worth noting that Definition 3.1 prescribes some cases in which even zero can be a hypercyclic vector: Let 𝓐 := {0} × W, where W is a dense linear submanifold of Y. Then 𝓐 is hypercyclic, zero is the unique hypercyclic vector of 𝓐 and there is no single-valued linear restriction of 𝓐 that is hypercyclic (in particular, a hypercyclic MLO need not be densely defined and the inverse of a hypercyclic MLO need not be hypercyclic, in contrast to the single-valued linear case, see also [19, Prob. 1]). Furthermore, with this example, we can get that an MLO 𝓐 and some arbitraty multiples of it can be d-hypercyclic, in contrast to what is indicated in [19, p. 299]. Moreover, the non-triviality of the manifold 𝓐0 is not essentially connected with hypercyclicity of an MLO: Just take 𝓐:= X × W, with W a non-dense linear submanifold of X so as to 𝓐 cannot be hypercyclic.

It is an elementary fact that the point spectrum of the adjoint of a hypercyclic continuous single-valued linear operator has to be empty [4], see also [2, 3]. The same holds for hypercyclic MLO’s:

Theorem 3.5

If 𝓐 ∈ ML(X) is hypercyclic, then σp(𝓐*) = ∅.

Proof

Let x be a hypercyclic vector for 𝓐. For every n ∈ ℕ, there exists an element yn ∈ 𝓐nx such that {yn : n ∈ ℕ} is dense in X. Suppose that there exist λ ∈ 𝕂 and x*X* ∖ {0} such that λ x* ∈ 𝓐*x*, i.e., that 〈x*, y〉 = λx*, x〉, whenever y ∈ 𝓐x. It is clear that 〈x*, yn〉 = λnx*, x〉 for all n ∈ ℕ, so that the assumption 〈x*, x〉 = 0 implies 〈x*, yn〉 = 0 for all n ∈ ℕ, and therefore, x* = 0. So, 〈x*, x〉 ≠ O. If |λ| ≤ 1, then |〈x*, yn〉| = |λnx*, x〉| ≤ |〈x*, x〉| for all n ∈ ℕ. This would imply |〈x*, u〉| ≤ |〈x*, x〉| for all uX, which is a contradiction since |〈x*, nu〉| diverges to ∞ for any uX such that 〈x*, u〉 ≠ O. If |λ| > 1, then |〈x*, yn〉| = |λnx*, x〉| ≥ |〈x*, x〉| for all n ∈ ℕ; this would imply |〈x*, u〈| ≥ |〈x*, x〉| for all uX, which is a contradiction since |〈x*, u/n〉| converges to 0 for all uX, and 〈x*, x〉 ≠ 0. □

The Hypercyclicity Criterion, initially stated by Kitai [4] and by Gethner and Shapiro [5], gives some sufficient conditions in order to determine that an operator is hypercyclic. Those conditions were proved to be equivalent to be weakly mixing [21, 22]. Since then, several equivalent formulations have been given. We will state it in terms of the collapse /blow-up conditions [21, Def. 1.2] and [1, Th. 3.4] initially stated by Godefroy and Shapiro [6].

It is worth noting that this criterion can be formulated, in a certain way, for MLO’s and that we do not need any type of continuity or closedness of operators under consideration for its validity; a straightforward proof of the next result is very similar to that of [23, Th. 9] (continuous version) and therefore it is omitted.

Criterion 3.6

(Blow-up/collapse for MLOs). Let 𝓐 ∈ ML(X). Suppose that (mn)n ∈ ℕ be a strictly increasing sequence of positive integers.

Let X0 be the set of those elements yX for which there exists a sequence (yn)n ∈ ℕ in X such that yn ∈ 𝓐mny, n ∈ ℕ and limn →∞yn = 0.

Let X consist of those elements zX for which there exist a null sequence (ωn)n ∈ ℕ in X and a sequence (un)n ∈ ℕ in X such that un ∈ 𝓐mnωn, n ∈ ℕ and limn → ∞un = z.

If X0, X are dense in X, then 𝓐 is hypercyclic.

We will also state a version of this criterion for disjoint hypercyclicity of MLOs; see [19, Prop. 2.6 & Th. 2.7] for single-valued case of linear operators. Its proof follows the same lines.

Proposition 3.7

(d-Blow-up/collapse Criterion for MLO’s). Let N ∈ ℕ and let 𝓐jML(X), j ∈ ℕ ∩[1, N] and (mn)n ∈ ℕ a strictly increasing sequence of positive integers.

Let X0 be the set of those elements yX satisfying that for every 1 ≤ jN there exists a sequence (yn,j)n ∈ ℕ in X such that yn,j Ajmn y, n ∈ ℕ and limn → ∞yn,j = 0.

For each j ∈ ℕ ∩[1, N], let us consider the set X∞,j, consisting of those elements zX for which there exist elements ωn,i(z) and un,i,j(z) in X(n ∈ ℕ, 1 ≤ iN) such that (ωn,j(z))n ∈ ℕ is a null sequence in X, un,i,j(z) ∈ Ajmn ωn,i(z), n ∈ ℕ and limn →∞un,i,j = δi,jz(1 ≤ iN) where δi,j denotes the Kronecker delta.

If X0, X∞,1, …, X∞,N, then the operators 𝓐1, … 𝓐N are d-hypercyclic.

Observe that the assertions of Proposition 3.6 and Proposition 3.7 can be formulated for sequences of multivalued linear operators (cf. [19, Rem. 2.8] and for finite direct sums of each operator with k − 1 copies of itself, k, n ∈ ℕ, namely (AAk)n=AnAnk, k, n ∈ ℕ. In this case, we just have to pass to the subsets X0k,X,jk, 1 ≤ jN, as well to the tuples (z, …, z), (yn,j, …, yn,j), (wn,i, …, wn,i), (un,i,j, …, un,i,j), each of which having exactly k components, and the proof follows as indicated.

The following theorem extends the criterion in [24, Th. 2.1], that is a kind of reformulation of Godefroy-Shapiro [6] and Desch-Schappacher-Webb Criterion (continuous version) [25], see also [3, Th. 7.30], for MLO’s.

Theorem 3.8

Let Ω ⊆ ℂ be an open connected set intersecting the unit circle Ω ∩ S1≠∅. Let f : Ω→ X \ {0} be an analytic mapping such that λ f(λ) ∈ 𝓐f(λ) for all λ∈ Ω. Set X~:=span{f(λ):λΩ}¯. Then the operator A|X~ is topologically mixing in the space X~ and the set of periodic points of A|X~ is dense in X~ , so that it is also chaotic.

Proof

The proof is very similar to that of [23, Th. 5], which is based on an application of the Hahn-Banach Theorem. We will only outline the most relevant details.

Without loss of generality, we may assume that X~ = X. If Ω0 ⊆ Ω admits a cluster point in Ω, then the (weak) analyticity of mapping λf(λ), λ ∈ Ω shows that Ψ(Ω0) := span{f(λ) : λ ∈ Ω0} is dense in X.

Further on, it is clear that there exist λ0 ∈ Ω ∩ {z ∈ ℂ : |z| = 1} and δ > 0 such that any of the sets Ω0,+ := {λ ∈ Ω : |λλ0 | < δ, | λ| > 1} and Ω0,− := {λ ∈ Ω : |λλ0| < δ, |λ| < 1} admits a cluster point in Ω.

Take two open sets ∅ ≠ U, VX. Then there exists y, zX, ϵ > 0, p, q ∈ cs (X) such that Bp (y, ϵ) ⊆ U and Bq (z, ϵ)⊆ V. We may assume that y=i=1nβif(λi)Ψ(Ω0,),z=j=1mγjf(λ~j)Ψ(Ω0,+), with αj, βj ∈ ℂ\ {0}, λj ∈ Ω0,− and λ~jΩ0,+ for 1 ≤ in and 1 ≤ jm.

Set zt:=j=1mγjλ~jtf(λ~j) and xt := y + zt, t ≥ 0. Then {xt, y, zt} ⊆ D(𝓐), t ≥ 0 and it can be easily seen that z ∈ 𝓐n zn, n ∈ ℕ. Consider ωn:=z+i=1nβiλinf(λj)Anxn, for every n ∈ ℕ. There exists n0(ϵ)∈ ℕ such that, for every nn0(ϵ), xnBp(y, ϵ) and wnBq(z, ϵ). Therefore, 𝓐 is topologically mixing.

Since the set Ω ∩ exp (2πiℚ) has a cluster point in Ω, the proof that the set of periodic points of 𝓐 is dense in X can be given as in that of [24, Th. 2.1].

Finally, the validity of implication:

x,f(λ)=0,λΩ for some xXx=0.

yields that X~ = X. □

Remark 3.9

Suppose that Ω is an open connected subset of 𝕂 = ℂ satisfying Ω ∩ S1 ≠ ∅, as well as that N ≥ 2 and 𝓐1, ⋯, 𝓐NML(X). Let f : Ω→ X \ {0} be an analytic mapping such that λ f(λ)∈ 𝓐j f(λ) for all λ ∈ Ω and j ∈ ℕN. Set X~:=span{f(λ):λΩ}¯. Then it is very simple to show that, for every l ∈ ℕ, the set P((A1|X~)l,,(AN|X~)l) is dense in X~N ; cf. also the proof of Theorem 3.8.

In the following example, we will illustrate Theorem 3.8 with a concrete example that provides the existence of a substantially large class of topologically mixing multivalued linear operators with dense set of periodic points.

Example 3.10

Suppose that AL(X) with closed range satisfying that there exist an open connected subset ∅ ≠ Λ ofand an analytic mapping g : Λ → X \ {0} such that Ag(ν) = νg(ν), ν ∈ Λ. Let P(z) and Q(z) be non-zero complex polynomials, let R := {z ∈ ℂ : P(z) = 0}, Λ′ := Λ\ R, and let X~:=span{g(λ):λΛ}¯. Suppose that

QP(Λ)S1.

Then Theorem 3.8 implies that the parts of MLOs Q(𝓐)P(𝓐)−1 and P(𝓐)−1Q(𝓐) in X~ are topologically mixing in the space X~ . It can be easily checked that the sets of periodic points of these operators are dense in X~ .

Theorem 3.8 has a disjoint analogue in [18, Th. 4.3] for single-valued operators. The next result is the corresponding reformulation for MLO’s, that can be obtained with a similar proof.

Theorem 3.11

Suppose that N ∈ ℕ and 𝓐1, …, 𝓐NML(X). For each natural number 0 ≤ pN there exists a total set Dp (that is, the linear span of Dp is dense in X) such that the following conditions hold for every 1 ≤ jN:

(i) For every eDp there exists an eigenvalue λj,p(e) of 𝓐j for which λj,p(e)e ∈ 𝓐je.

(ii) For every eD0 we have λj,0(e)∈ int(S1)

(ii) For every eDj we have λj,j (e) ∈ ext(S1).

(iii) For every 1 ≤ ijN and every eDj we have |λj,i(e)| < |λjj (e)|.

Then the operators 𝓐1,…, 𝓐N are d-topologically mixing.

We illustrate Theorem 3.11 with two interesting examples pointing out that the continuity of operators can be neglected from the formulation of [18, Theorem 4.3], as well as that there exists a great number of Banach function spaces where this extended version of the aforementioned theorem can be applied (cf. also [18, Final questions, 2.]). Other examples involving single-valued or multivalued linear operators can be similarly given, by using the analysis from Example 3.10; cf. also [26], [27, Ex. 3.8 & Ex. 3.10] and [28] for some other unbounded differential operators that we can employ here.

Example 3.12

Let p > 2 and let X be a symmetric space of non-compact type of rank one, let Pp be the parabolic domain defined in the proof of [29, Th. 3.1], and let cp > 0 be the apex of

Pp=||ρ||2+z2:?zC,,|(z)|||ρ||2p1C. (2)

It is known that int (Pp)σp(ΔX,p) [29, 30], where ΔX,p denotes the corresponding Laplace-Beltrami operator acting on Lp (X), the space of K-invariant functions in Lp(X), see [29, Sec. 2.3], where K is a maximal compact subgroup of the non-compact semi-simple Lie group Isom0(X).

Furthermore, there exists an analytic function g : int (Pp) → Lp (X) such that ΔX,p g(λ) = λ g(λ), λint(Pp) and that the set Ψ(Ω) := {g(λ) : λ ∈ Ω} is total in X for any non-empty open subset Ω ⊆ int(Pp).

Take N ∈ ℕ with N ≥ 2 and numbers a1, …, aN satisfying − 1 − cp < a1 < a2 < … < aN < 1 − cp. For every 1 ≤ iN there exists a point λj ∈ (Pp) such that |λj + ai | > max (1, |λj + aj|) for all ji with 1 ≤ jN. Now taking Ω0 as a small ball around cp, and Dj = Ψ(Ωj) with Ωj a small ball around λj, 1 ≤ iN, we can apply Theorem 3.11, and then we conclude that the operators ΔX,p+a1,ΔX,p+a2,,ΔX,p+aN are d-topologically mixing.

Furthermore, by Remark 3.8, the set P(ΔX,p+a1,,ΔX,p+aN) is dense in ( Lp (X))N. Hence, the operators ΔX,p+a1,ΔX,p+a2,,ΔX,p+aN are d-chaotic.

The next example is inspired by some results from [3133].

Example 3.13

Let b > c/2 > 0, Ω := {λ ∈ ℂ : ℜλ < cb/2} and let us consider the bounded perturbation of the one-dimensional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator 𝓐cu := u′ + 2bxu′ + cu is acting on L2(ℝ), with domain D(Ac):={uL2(R)Wloc2,2(R):AcuL2(R)}. Then 𝓐c generates a strongly continuous semigroup and Ω ⊆ σp(𝓐c).

For any non-empty open connected subset Ω′ ⊆ Ω, which admits a cluster point in Ω, we have X = span{gj(λ) : λ ∈ Ω′, i = 1, 2}, where g1 : Ω → X and g2 : Ω → X are defined by g1(λ) := F1(eξ22bξ|ξ|(2+λcb))(),andg2(λ):=F1(eξ22b|ξ|(1+λcb))(),λΩ denoting by 𝓕−1 the inverse Fourier transform on the real line.

Furthermore, 𝓐cgj(λ) = λ gj(λ), λ∈ Ω, i = 1, 2. Suppose that Pj(z) and Qj(z) are non-zero complex polynomials (1 ≤ iN), and Ω′ denotes the set obtained by removing all zeroes of polynomials Pj(z) from Ω. Let Λ ⊆ ℂ be a non-empty open connected subset intersecting S1 = {z ∈ ℂ : |z| = 1} such that

Λ1jNQjPj(Ω). (3)

In addition, let us suppose that there exist non-empty open connected subsets Ωp ⊆ Ω′, 0 ≤ pN, such that

QjPj(Ω0)int(S1),andQjPj(Ωj)ext(S1),1jN. (4)

Finally, applying Theorem 3.11 and Remark 3.9, as in Example 3.10, we get that the multivalued linear operators Q1(𝓐c)P1(𝓐c)−1, …, QN(𝓐c)PN(𝓐c)−1 are d-topologically mixing and that the set of periodic points of these operators are dense in XN.

Furthermore, the same conclusion holds if we replace some of the operators Qi(𝓐c)−1Pi(𝓐c) with Pi(𝓐c)Qi(𝓐c)−1, 1 ≤ iN.

4 Dynamics of extensions of MLO’S

Let 𝓐 ∈ ML(X). In the sequel, we will often identify 𝓐 with its associated linear relation Aˇ, which will also be denoted by the same symbol 𝓐. It is clear that 𝓐 is contained in X × X, which is hypercyclic, chaotic and topologically mixing (transitive, resp). Let us denote

S(A):={Z:Z is a linear subspace of X×X and AZ}. (5)

We say that 𝓑 ∈ ML(X) is a hypercyclic (chaotic, topologically mixing, topologically transitive) extension of 𝓐 if 𝓑 ∈ S(𝓐) and 𝓑 is hypercyclic (chaotic, topologically mixing, topologically transitive).

Further on, let N ∈ ℕ, and let 𝓐1,…, 𝓐NML(X). Then the MLO’s X × X, …, X × X, totally counted N times, are d-hypercyclic, d-chaotic and d-topologically mixing, d-topologically transitive. Denote

S(A1,,AN):={(B1,,BN):Bi is a linear subspace of X×X and AiBi for all 1iN}.

We say that the N-tuple (𝓑1, …, 𝓑N), with 𝓑iML(X), 1 ≤ iN, is a d-hypercyclic (d-chaotic, d-topologically mixing, d-topologically transitive) extension of (𝓐1, …, 𝓐N) if (𝓑1, …, 𝓑N) ∈ S(𝓐1, …, 𝓐N) and 𝓑1, …, 𝓑N are d-hypercyclic (d-chaotic, d-topologically mixing, d-topologically transitive).

We proceed with some examples to illustrate these notions.

Example 4.1

  1. Suppose that X :=𝕂n and 𝓐 := AL(X). Then 𝓐 is not hypercyclic, and 𝕂n× 𝕂n is the only hypercyclic (chaotic, topologically mixing, topologically transitive) extension of 𝓐; a similar statement holds on any arbitrary finite-dimensional space X.

  2. Suppose that X is infinite-dimensional W is a non-dense linear subspace of X and 𝓐 = X × W. Then any hypercyclic MLO extension of 𝓐 has the form X × W′, where Wis a dense linear subspace of X containing W.

  3. Any hypercyclic MLO extension 𝓐 of the identity operator I on X has the form 𝓐 x = x + W, xX, where W = 𝓐0 is a dense linear subspace of X and x is a hypercyclic vector of 𝓐.

The next examples depend on the following statement. Let us consider AL(X). Then any MLO extension 𝓐 of A has the form 𝓐x = Ax + W, xX, where W = 𝓐0 is a linear subspace of X. Inductively,

Anx=Anx+j=0n1Aj(W),nN,xX. (6)

Example 4.2

Suppose that W is a dense linear subspace of X, and 𝓐x = Ax + W, xX. Let U and V be two arbitrary open non-empty subsets of X. Then (6) implies that, for every n ∈ ℕ and uU, there exists an element ωW such that Anu + ωV ∩ 𝓐nu; in particular, 𝓐 is topologically mixing.

Suppose that X is infinite-dimensional, AL(X) and {yk : k ∈ ℕ} is a dense subset of X. Denote by 𝔗 the set consisting of all linear manifolds W′ of X such that there exists xX with the property that, for every n ∈ ℕ, there exist elements zn,jW′(0 ≤ jn−1) such that the set {Anx+j=0n1Ajzn,j:nN} is dense in X. Then 𝔗 is non-empty because X ∈ 𝔗 (with x = 0, zn,j = 0, 1 ≤ jn−1, zn, 0 = yn), and A~ = A + ∩ 𝔗. Now we consider some examples:

Example 4.3

Let X be an infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space with the complete orthonormal basis {en : n ∈ ℕ}. Let us consider A as the forward shift operator acting on an arbitrary element x=n=1xnenX,asA(n=1xnen):=n=1xnen+1. The operator A satisfiesA∥ = 1 and therefore A is not hypercyclic.

On the one hand, any linear manifold Wbelonging to 𝔗 has to contain the linear span of {ω}, for some element ω of X such that {ω, e1} ≠ 0. On the other hand, let W be the linear span of {e1}. In what follows, we will prove that A + W is a hypercyclic extension of A, with zero being the corresponding hypercyclic vector: It is clear that there exists a strictly increasing sequence (nk)k∈ ℕ of positive integers such that

ykj=0nk1αnk,jej+1<2k,

for some scalars αnk,j(0 ≤ jnk − 1). In addition, the linear span of {e1, …, el} is contained in j=0l1Aj(W) for any l ∈ ℕ. Plugging zn,j := 0 (0 ≤ jn−1) if nnk for all k ∈ ℕ, and zn,j := αnk,j e1(0 ≤ jnk − 1) if n = nk for some k ∈ ℕ, we can simply deduce that zero is a hypercyclic vector of A + W, as claimed.

Consider the following MLO extension of 𝓐 ∈ ML(X)

A~:={ZS(A):Z is hypercyclic}. (7)

We call A~ the quasi-hypercyclic extension of 𝓐 and similarly define the quasi-chaotic (quasi-topologically transitive, quasi-topologically mixing) extension of 𝓐.

Example 4.4

Let X := l2(ℤ), let (an)n ∈ ℤ be a bounded subset of (0, ∞), and let

Ax:=n=xnanen+1foranyx=n=xnenX; (8)

where {en : n ∈ ℤ} denotes the complete orthonormal basis of X. The hypercyclicity of bilateral weighted shift A has been characterized by Salas in [34, Th.2.1]: Given ϵ > 0 and q ∈ ℕ, there exists a sufficiently large integer n ∈ ℕ such that s=0n1as+j<ϵands=1najs>1/ϵ for all |j| ≤ q. Suppose that this condition does not hold, then it can be simply verified from (6) that span {enk : k ∈ ℕ} ∈ 𝔗 for any strictly decreasing sequence (nk)k ∈ ℕ of negative integers. Hence, A~ = A.

Example 4.5

Suppose that W is a linear subspace of X, 𝓐x = Ax + W, xX, and for each ωW there exist an integer n ∈ ℕ and elements ωjW such that j=1n1Ajωj=Anω. This, in particular holds provided that there exists an integer n ∈ ℕ such that An(W)⊆ W, as it is the case of the forward shift operator Then (6) implies that ω∈ 𝓐nω, wW, so that operator W consists of solely periodic points of A. Suppose now that R(A) is dense in X, hence R(Aj) is dense in X for all j ∈ ℕ. Using this fact and Example 4.2, we get that 𝓐x = Ax + R(Aj), xX is a chaotic extension of A for all j ∈ ℕ; this is no longer true if R(A) is not dense in X, even if dimension of X \ R(A) equals 1, cf. Example 4.3. In the case that the operator A is nilpotent and W is a dense submanifold of X, then it can be easily seen that 𝓐x = Ax + W, xX is a chaotic extension of A.

We can similarly introduce the notion of a d-quasi-hypercyclic extension (A1,,AN)~ (d-quasi-topologically transitive extension, d-quasi-topologically mixing extension) of any N-tuple (𝓐1, ⋯, 𝓐N) of elements of ML(X)

(A1,,AN)~:={(B1,,BN)S(A1,,AN):B1,,BN are d-hypercyclic}.

Suppose that X is infinite-dimensional and A1, …, ANL(X). Then any MLO extension of the tuple (A1, …, AN) has the form (A1 + W1, …, AN + WN), where Wi is a linear subspace of X, 1 ≤ iN. Using (6), we have that (A1 + W1, …, AN + WN) is d-hypercyclic if there exists some xX with the property that, for every n ∈ ℕ there exist elements zn,j,lWl(0 ≤ jn−1, 1 ≤ lN) such that the set {(A1nx+j=0n1A1jzn,j,1,,ANnx+j=0n1ANjzn,j,N):nN} is dense in XN. Then, (A1 + X, …, AN + X) is d-hypercyclic with x = 0 being the corresponding d-hypercyclic vector. Arguing as in Example 4.3, it can be easily seen that the following examples hold:

Example 4.6

  1. Let A be the operator considered in Example 4.3. Then (A + W1, A2 + W2, …, AN + WN) is a d-hypercyclic extension of the N-tuple (A, A2, …, AN), where Wi is the linear span of {e1, e2, …, ej} for 1 ≤ iN.

  2. Any d-hypercyclic extension of the tuple (I, …, I) has the form (I + W1, …, I + WN), where Wi is a dense linear subspace of X, 1 ≤ iN.

  3. Let X := l2(ℤ), let (an)n ∈ ℤ be a bounded subset of (0, ∞), and let A be defined through (8). Suppose that (nk,i)k∈ℕ is any strictly decreasing sequence of negative integers possessing the property that, for every s ∈ ℕ and jNi10, there exists l ∈ ℤ such that l < − s and nl,ij (mod i), 1 ≤ iN. Set Wi :=span({enk,i k ∈ ℕ}), 1 ≤ iN. Then (A + W1, A2 + W2, …, AN + WN) is a d-hypercyclic extension of the tuple (A, A2, AN).

  4. Let A1, …, ANL(X), with (𝓐1, …, 𝓐N) = (A1 + W1, …, AN + WN), where Wi is a dense linear subspace of X, 1 ≤ iN. Then (𝓐1, …, 𝓐N) is a d-topologically mixing extension of (A1, …, AN).

  5. Suppose that the range of Aj is dense in X for every 1 ≤ iN. Then (A1+R(A1j1),,AN+R(ANjN)) is a d-chaotic extension of (A1, …, AN) for all j1, …, jN∈ ℕ. In the case that the operator Aj is nilpotent and Wi is a dense subspace of X, 1 ≤ iN, then it can be easily seen that (A1 + W1, …, AN + WN) is a d-chaotic extension of (A1, …, AN).
