Frequently hypercyclic composition operators on the little Lipschitz space of a rooted tree

TL;DR
The paper addresses the problem of identifying when composition operators $C_{\\varphi}$ on the little Lipschitz space $\\mathcal{L}_0(\\mathbb{N}_0)$ are frequently hypercyclic. The core approach is to establish an isometric isomorphism $D$ between the Lipschitz-type spaces on rooted trees and classical sequence spaces $\\ell^{\\infty}(T)$ and $c_0(T)$, translating operators into their $\\ell^{\\infty}$ counterparts. This framework yields sharp norm formulas and a conjugacy for composition, multiplication, and backward-shift operators, enabling precise dynamical analysis. The main result characterizes strictly increasing symbols $\\varphi:\\mathbb{N}_0\\to\\mathbb{N}_0$ for which $C_{\\varphi}$ satisfies the Frequent Hypercyclicity Criterion on $\\mathcal{L}_0(\\mathbb{N}_0)$, showing equivalence with hypercyclicity and specific distance-growth conditions. Overall, the isomorphism-based method simplifies existing results, offers a complete dynamical picture in the studied setting, and suggests broader extensions to other rooted trees and dynamical notions.
Abstract
We characterize the strictly increasing symbols $\varphi:\mathbb{N}_0\longrightarrow\mathbb{N}_0$ whose composition operators~$C_{\varphi}$ satisfy the Frequent Hypercyclicity Criterion on the little Lipschitz space $\mathcal{L}_0(\mathbb{N}_0)$. With this result we continue the recent research about this kind of spaces and operators, but our approach relies on establishing a natural isomorphism between the Lipschitz-type spaces over rooted trees and the classical spaces $\ell^{\infty}$ and $c_0$. Such isomorphism provides an alternative framework that simplifies and allows to improve many previous results about these spaces and the operators defined there.
