We prove, when $X$ is compact and $E$ is a Banach space containing a nowhere vanishing function, that a weighted composition operator $\W$ is never weakly supercyclic on $E$. We also prove that if the symbol $\varphi$ lies in the unit ball of $A(\D)$, then every weighted composition operator can never be $\tau_p$-supercyclic neither on $C(\D)$ nor on the disc algebra $A(\D)$. Finally, we obtain Ansari-Bourdon type results and conditions on the spectrum for arbitrary weakly supercyclic operators, and we provide necessary conditions for a composition operator to be weakly supercyclic on the space of holomorphic functions defined in non necessarily simply connected planar domains. As a consequence, we show that no composition operator can be weakly supercyclic neither on the space of holomorphic functions on the punctured disc nor in the punctured plane. %K Weighted composition operator %K Weak supercyclicity %K Disc algebra %K Space of holomorphic functions %~ Universidad de Cádiz
