We solve a problem posed by Blasco, Bonilla and Grosse-Erdmann in 2010 by constructing a harmonic function on ℝN, that is frequently hypercyclic with respect to the partial differentiation operator ∂/∂xk and which has a minimal growth rate in terms of the average L2-norm on spheres of radius r > 0 as r → ∞.

We describe a class of topological vector spaces admitting a mixing uniformly continuous operator group with holomorphic dependence on the parameter t. This result builds on those existing in the literature. We also describe a class of topological vector spaces admitting no supercyclic strongly continuous operator semigroups .

We study the rate of growth of entire functions that are frequently hypercyclic for the differentiation operator or the translation operator. Moreover, we prove the existence of frequently hypercyclic harmonic functions for the translation operator and we study the rate of growth of harmonic functions that are frequently hypercyclic for partial differentiation operators.

We construct chaotic m-homogeneous maps acting on for any m ≥ 2, and on the Fréchet spaces for odd values of m ≥ 3 and for any m ≥ 2.

Let E be a Banach space such that its dual E* is separable. We show that there exists a hypercyclic bounded operator T on E such that its adjoint T* is also hypercyclic on E*. We also exhibit a new kind of dual hypercyclic operator. Thus answers affirmatively two of the questions raised by Henrik Petersson in a recent paper.

An operator $T$ on a Banach space $X$ is said to be weakly supercyclic (respectively $N$-supercyclic) if there exists a one-dimensional (respectively $N$-dimensional) subspace of $X$ whose orbit under $T$ is weakly dense (respectively norm dense) in $X$. We show that a weakly supercyclic hyponormal operator is necessarily a multiple of a unitary operator, and we give an example of a weakly supercyclic unitary operator. On the other hand, we show that hyponormal operators are never $N$-supercyclic. Finally, we characterize $N$-supercyclic weighted shifts.

We give a spectral characterization of the norm closure of the class of all weakly hypercyclic operators on a Hilbert space. Analogous results are obtained for weakly supercyclic operators.
