Abstract

Let T be a bounded linear operator acting on a complex, separable, infinite-dimensional Hilbert space and let f: D → ℂ be an analytic function defined on an open set D ⊆ ℂ which contains the spectrum of T. If T is the limit of hypercyclic operators and if f is nonconstant on every connected component of D, then f(T) is the limit of hypercyclic operators if and only if f(σW(T)){z:|z|=1} is connected, where σW(T) denotes the Weyl spectrum of T.
