In this thesis , we give an expanded account of topological characterisation of weakly compact operators by Peralta , Villanueva , Wright and Ylinen in 2007 . We first study weak topology on a Banach space X and weakly compact subsets of X . As a cansequence of this study , we introduce and inrestigate weakly compact operators o X . We then consider the Banach algebra of all weakly compact operators o X and present various algebraic and topological aspects of analysis on this structure In this thesis, topological characterisation of weakly compact operators of banach space $X$ will be studied. Then, we introduce Mackey topology for duall pair $(X ^{**},X^* )$. We identify the space $X$ with its canonical embedding in $X ^{**} $ and call the topology induced on $X$ by the Mackey topology, the "Right topology" for $X$. After that, it will be proved that acontinu ous oparator fromthe space $X$, equipped with the Right topology into the space $X$, equipped with the norm topology is weakly compact. Then, we introduce pseudo weakly compact operators and show that each weak operator is also a pseudo weakly compact operator, but the converse is not true. Regarding this issue, we will examine the conditions on the space $X$ which each pseudo weakly compact operator is weakly compact, too.
