Mean ergodic and related properties of generalized Ces\`aro operators in BK-sequence spaces

Abstract

Recent results concerning the linear dynamics and mean ergodicity of compact operators in Banach spaces, together with additional new results, are employed to investigate various spectral properties of generalized Ces\`aro operators acting in large classes of classical BK-sequence spaces. Of particular interest is to determine the eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenvectors of such operators and to decide whether (or not) the operators are power bounded, mean ergodic and supercyclic.
