Abstract
We develop a microspectral theory for quasinilpotent linear operators (i.e., those with \sigma(Q) = \{0 \}) in a Banach space. For such operators, the classical spectral theory gives little information. Deeper structure can be obtained from microspectral sets in \mathbb C as defined below. Such sets describe, e.g., semigroup generation, various resolvent properties, power boundedness as well as Tauberian properties associated to zQ for z \in \mathbb C.
