Topological shadowing for linear operators

Abstract

We prove a linear operator of a finite-dimensional Banach space has the topological shadowing property, as introduced in \cite{lny}, if and only if its spectrum lies either within the open unit complex disk or outside the closure of that disk. Moreover, the spectrum of every uniformly expansive linear operator with the topological shadowing property lies either within the open unit complex disk or outside the closure of that disk. Lastly, we prove that a normal operator with the topological shadowing property on a Hilbert space does not have any nonzero nonwandering points.
