Abstract

Hypercyclicity of C0-semigroups is a very unstable property: We give examples to show that adding arbitrary small constants or a bounded rank one operator to the generator of a hypercyclic semigroup can destroy hypercyclicity. Also the limit of hypercyclic semigroups (even in operator norm topology) need not be hypercyclic, and a hypercyclic semigroup can be the limit of nonhypercyclic ones. Hypercyclicity is not inherited by the Yosida approximations. Finally, the restriction of a hypercyclic nonnegative semigroup in a Banach lattice to the positive cone may be far from hypercyclic.
