The linear subspace S of B(X, Y), the space of bounded operators from the Banach space X to the Banach space Y, is said to be transitive if Sx is dense in Y for all x ≠ 0. We give a number of conditions, involving operators intertwined by S, which imply that S is not transitive, and conditions which, when X = Y, imply that the commutant of S is also not transitive.
