Title: Invariant and hyperinvariant subspaces problem for hyponormal operators
Abstract:
The question whether every operator on infinite dimensional Hilbert space H has a non-trivial invariant subspace or a non-trivial hyperinvariant subspace is one of the most difficult problem in operator theory. This problem is open for more than half a century. A subnormal operator has a non-trivial invariant subspace, but the existence of non-trivial invariant subspace for a hyponormal operator T still open. In this paper we give an affirmative answer of the existence of a non-trivial hyperinvariant subspace for a hyponormal operator. More generally, we show that a large classis of operators containing the class of hyponormal operators have non-trivial hyperinvariant subspaces. Finally, we show that every super-decomposable operator on a Banach space has a non-trivial hyperinvariant subspace. In particular, every generalized scalar operator, compact operator, and Riesz operator on a Banach space $X$ have non-trivial hyperinvariant subspaces.
