Strong factorization of operators defined on subspaces of analytic functions in lattices

It is shown that for every 2-concave Banach lattice X of measurable fuctions on the circle, the quotient space X/X_A has cotype 2. Here X_A denotes the subclass of X consisting of the boundary values of analytic functions. It is also shown that, under slight additional assumptions, a p-concave operator defined on X_A factors through L _A ^p = H^p and extends to X, provided that X is p-convex.

<Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis><Subscript>0</Subscript>-Singular and <Emphasis Type="Italic">ℓ</Emphasis><Subscript>1</Subscript>-singular operators between vector-valued Banach lattices

Given an operator T : X → Y between Banach spaces, and a Banach lattice E consisting of measurable functions, we consider the point-wise extension of the operator to the vector-valued Banach lattices T _E : E(X) → E(Y) given by T _E (f)(ω) = T(f(ω)). It is proved that for any Banach lattice E which does not contain c ₀, the operator T is an isomorphism on a subspace isomorphic to c ₀ if and only if so is T _E . An analogous result for invertible operators on subspaces isomorphic to ℓ ₁ is also given.     

Denting and strongly extreme points in the unit ball of spaces of operators

For 1 ≤p ≤ ∞ we show that there are no denting points in the unit ball of ℓ(l^p). This extends a result recently proved by Grząślewicz and Scherwentke whenp = 2 [GS1]. We also show that for any Banach spaceX and for any measure space (Ω, A, μ), the unit ball of ℓ(L ¹ (μ), X) has denting points iffL ¹(μ) is finite dimensional and the unit ball ofX has a denting point. We also exhibit other classes of Banach spacesX andY for which the unit ball of ℓ(X, Y) has no denting points. When X* has the extreme point intersection property, we show that all ‘nice’ operators in the unit ball of ℓ(X, Y) are strongly extreme points.     

Banach spaces of operators that are complemented in their biduals

Let [A, a] be a normed operator ideal. We say that [A, a] is boundedly weak*-closed if the following property holds: for all Banach spaces X and Y, if T: X → Y** is an operator such that there exists a bounded net (T _i ) _i∈I in A(X, Y) satisfying lim _i 〈y*, T _i x y*〉 for every x ∈ X and y* ∈ Y*, then T belongs to A(X, Y**). Our main result proves that, when [A, a] is a normed operator ideal with that property, A(X, Y) is complemented in its bidual if and only if there exists a continuous projection from Y** onto Y, regardless of the Banach space X. We also have proved that maximal normed operator ideals are boundedly weak*-closed but, in general, both concepts are different.      

Spaces of compact operators and their dual spaces

Theω′-topology on the spaceL(X, Y) of bounded linear operators from the Banach spaceX into the Banach spaceY is discussed in [10]. Let ℒ^w' (X, Y) denote the space of allT∈L(X, Y) for which there exists a sequence of compact linear operators (T _n)⊂K(X, Y) such thatT=ω′−lim_nT_n and let . We show that is a Banach ideal of operators and that the continuous dual spaceK(X, Y)* is complemented in . This results in necessary and sufficient conditions forK(X, Y) to be reflexive, whereby the spacesX andY need not satisfy the approximation property. Similar results follow whenX andY are locally convex spaces. Financial support from the Potchefstroom University and Maseno University is greatly acknowledged.

Complemented copies of ℓ<Subscript>p</Subscript> spaces in tensor products

We give sufficient conditions on Banach spaces X and Y so that their projective tensor product X ⊗_π Y, their injective tensor product X ⊗_ɛ Y, or the dual (X ⊗_π Y)^* contain complemented copies of ℓ_p.     

On the spectral representation of the elementary operator and spectral mapping theorems

LetX andY denote two complex Banach spaces and letB(Y, X) denote the algebra of all bounded linear operators fromY toX. ForA∈B(X) ⁿ ,B∈B(Y) ⁿ , the elementary operator acting onB(Y, X) is defined by . In this paper we obtain the formulae of the spectrum and the essential spectrum of Δ(A, B) by using spectral mapping theorems. Forn=1, we prove thatS _p (L _A ,R _B )=σ(A)×σ(B) and .     

The Grothendieck property for injective tensor products of Banach spaces

Let X be a Banach space with the Grothendieck property, Y a reflexive Banach space, and let X ⊗̌_ɛ Y be the injective tensor product of X and Y.

The bounds for matrices with monotonic rows

The bounds LX,Y (A) and ‖A‖ _X,Y of an operator A = (a _n,k ) _{n, k} ≥0 with monotonic rows are evaluated, where X and Y are quasi-normed real valued sequence spaces. In particular, in the case where X = ℓ _p and Y = ℓ _q , our results give the results when part 0 < p ≤ 1 and 0 < q < ∞ to complement the other results with range p ≥ 1 and 0 < q < ∞. Moreover, we give a partial answer to a problem [1, Problem 7.23] which was posed by Bennett.     

Some properties and applications of weakly equicompact sets

Let X and Y be Banach spaces. A set (the space of all weakly compact operators from X into Y) is weakly equicompact if, for every bounded sequence (x _n) in X, there exists a subsequence (x _k(n)) so that (Tx_k(n)) is uniformly weakly convergent for T ∈ M. In this paper, the notion of weakly equicompact set is used to obtain characterizations of spaces X such that X ↩̸ ℓ₁, of spaces X such that B _X* is weak* sequentially compact and also to obtain several results concerning to the weak operator and the strong operator topologies. As another application of weak equicompactness, we conclude a characterization of relatively compact sets in when this space is endowed with the topology of uniform convergence on the class of all weakly null sequences. Finally, we show that similar arguments can be applied to the study of uniformly completely continuous sets. Received: 5 July 2006     

Factorization of weakly continuous differentiable mappings

Given real Banach spaces X and Y, let C _wbu¹(X, Y) be the space, introduced by R.M. Aron and J.B. Prolla, of C ¹ mappings from X into Y such that the mappings and their derivatives are weakly uniformly continuous on bounded sets. We show that f ∈ C _wbu¹(X, Y) if and only if f may be written in the form f = g ∘ S, where the intermediate space is normed, S is a precompact operator, and g is a Gateaux differentiable mapping with some additional properties.

The Radon–Nikodym Property for Tensor Products of Banach Lattices

Let 1 ≤ p < ∞. We show that , the Fremlin projective tensor product of ℓ_p with a Banach lattice X, has the Radon–Nikodym property if and only if X has the Radon–Nikodym property; and that , the Wittstock injective tensor product of ℓ_p with a Banach lattice X, has the Radon–Nikodym property if and only if X has the Radon–Nikodym property and each positive operator from ℓ_p' to X is compact, where 1/p +1/p'= 1 and let ℓ_p' = c₀ if p = 1.

L 1 (μ, X) as a constrained subspace of its bidual

In this note we consider the property of being constrained in the bidual, for the space of Bochner integrable functions. For a Banach spaceX having the Radon-Nikodym property and constrained in its bidual and forY ⊂ X, under a natural assumption onY, we show thatL ¹ (μ, X/Y) is constrained in its bidual andL ¹ (μ, Y) is a proximinal subspace ofL ¹(μ, X). As an application of these results, we show that, ifL ¹(μ, X) admits generalized centers for finite sets and ifY ⊂ X is reflexive, thenL ¹ μ, X/Y) also admits generalized centers for finite sets.     

The Sum and Chain Rules for Maximal Monotone Operators

This paper is primarily concerned with the problem of maximality for the sum A + B and composition L* ML in non-reflexive Banach space settings under qualifications constraints involving the domains of A, B, M. Here X, Y are Banach spaces with duals X*, Y*, A, B: X ⇉ X*, M: Y ⇉ Y* are multi-valued maximal monotone operators, and L: X → Y is linear bounded. Based on the Fitzpatrick function, new characterizations for the maximality of an operator as well as simpler proofs, improvements of previously known results, and several new results on the topic are presented.      

The Radon-Nikodym Property for Tensor Products of Banach Lattices II

Let φ be an Orlicz function that has a complementary function φ* and let ℓ_φ be an Orlicz sequence space. We prove two results in this paper. Result 1: , the Fremlin projective tensor product of ℓ_φ with a Banach lattice X, has the Radon-Nikodym property if and only if both ℓ_φ and X have the Radon-Nikodym property. Result 2: , the Wittstock injective tensor product of ℓ_φ with a Banach lattice X, has the Radon-Nikodym property if and only if both ℓ_φ and X have the Radon-Nikodym property and each positive continuous linear operator from h_φ* to X is compact.

K-monotone weighted couples of banach lattices

We give a criterion for the uniform relative K-monotonicity of weighted couples (X,X(w ₁)) and (X,X(w ₂)), where X is some Banach lattice of measurable functions with the Fatou property while w ₁ and w ₂ are weight functions. Using the criterion, we prove some corollaries for sequence spaces and arbitrary Banach lattices.     

Continuous operators on asymmetric normed spaces

If (X, p) and (Y, q) are two asymmetric normed spaces, the set LC(X, Y) of all continuous linear mappings from (X, p) to (Y, q) is not necessarily a linear space, it is a cone. If X and Y are two Banach lattices and p and q are, respectively, their associated asymmetric norms (p(x) = ‖⁺‖, q(y) = ‖y ⁺‖), we prove that the positive operators from X to Y are elements of the cone LC(X, Y). We also study the dual space of an asymmetric normed space and finally we give open mapping and closed graph type theorems in the framework of asymmetric normed spaces. The classical results for normed spaces follow as particular cases.

SOME ASPECTS OF THE LIFTING PROPERTY OF THE SPACE £∞ (μ, X)

Abstract

Using a lifting of £_∞ (μ, X) ([5],[6]), we construct a lifting ρ x of the seminormed vector space £_∞ (μ, X) of measurable, essentially bounded X-valued functions. We show that in a certain sense such a lifting always exists. If μ is Lebesgue measure on (0, 1) we show that ρ x exists as map from £_∞ ((O, 1), X) → £_∞,((0, l), X) if and only if X is reflexive. In general the lifted function takes its values in X **. Therefore we investigate the question, when f ε £_∞ (μ, X) is strictly liftable in the sense that the lifted function is a map with values even in X.

As an application we introduce the space £_∞ ^strong (μ, L (X, Y**)), a subspace of the space of strongly measurable, essentially bounded L (X, Y, **)-valued functions, and the associated quotient space £_∞ ^strong (μ, L (X,Y**)). We show that this space is a Banach space because there is a kind of a Dunford-Pettis Theorem for a subspace of L (X, £_∞(μ Y**)). Finally we investigate the measurability property of functions in £_∞(μ Y**)) und see that there exists a connection to the Radon-Nikodym property of the space L (X, Y).     

On convergence of sections of sequences in Banach spaces

An elementary proof of the (known) fact that each element of the Banach spaceℓ _w ^p (X) of weakly absolutelyp-summable sequences (if 1≤p<∞) in the Banach spaceX is the norm limit of its sections if and only if each element ofℓ _w ^p (X) is a norm null sequence inX, is given. Little modification to this proof leads to a similar result for a family of Orlicz sequence spaces. Some applications to spaces of compact operators on Banach sequence spaces are considered.
