Abstract

We generalize the notions of hypercyclic operators, \(\mathfrak {U}\)-frequently hypercyclic operators and frequently hypercyclic operators by introducing a new concept in linear dynamics, namely \(\mathcal {A}\)-hypercyclicity. We then state an \(\mathcal {A}\)-hypercyclicity criterion, inspired by the hypercyclicity criterion and the frequent hypercyclicity criterion, and we show that this criterion characterizes the \(\mathcal {A}\)-hypercyclicity for weighted shifts. We also investigate which density properties can the sets \({N(x, U)=\{n\in \mathbb {N}\ ; \ T^nx\in U\}}\) have for a given hypercyclic operator, and we study the new notion of reiteratively hypercyclic operators.
