Isometries of Lipschitz type function spaces

In this article, we describe isometries over the Lipschitz spaces under certain conditions. Indeed, we provide a unified proof for the main results of 3 and 5 in a more general setting. Finally, we extend our results for some other functions spaces like the space of vector‐valued little Lipschitz maps and pointwise Lipschitz maps.     

Isometries of symmetric operator spaces associated with AFD factors of typeII and symmetric vector-valued spaces

If is a surjective isometry of the separable symmetric operator spaceE(M, ) associated with the approximately finite-dimensional semifinite factorM and if · _E(M,) is not proportional to · _{L 2}, then there exist a unitary operatorUM and a Jordan automorphismJ ofM such that(x)=UJ(x) for allxME(M, ). We characterize also surjective isometries of vector-valued symmetric spacesF((0, 1), E(M, )).Research supported by the Australian Research Council     

Isometries between spaces of homogeneous polynomials

We derive Banach-Stone theorems for spaces of homogeneous polynomials. We show that every isometric isomorphism between the spaces of homogeneous approximable polynomials on real Banach spaces E and F is induced by an isometric isomorphism of E^′ onto F^′. With an additional geometric condition we obtain the analogous result in the complex case. Isometries between spaces of homogeneous integral polynomials and between the spaces of all n-homogeneous polynomials are also investigated.     

Strong topologies on vector-valued function spaces

Let be a real Banach space and let E be an ideal of L ⁰ over a -finite measure space (, , ). Let (X) be the space of all strongly -measurable functions f: X such that the scalar function , defined by , belongs to E. The paper deals with strong topologies on E(X). In particular, the strong topology the order continuous dual of E(X)) is examined. We generalize earlier results of [PC] and [FPS] concerning the strong topologies.     

Regular relations and strictly completely regular ordered spaces

The classical theorem of Zareckiı̆ about regular relations is slightly extended and an intrinsic characterization of regularity is given. Based on the extended Zareckiı̆ theorem and the intrinsic characterization of regularity, we give a characterization of the strict complete regularity of ordered spaces by means of a certain regular relation between the closed and the open upper sets. As an application, it is shown that a quasicontinuous domain endowed with the Lawson topology is strictly completely regular, provided that the Lawson-open lower sets are contained in the lower topology. By means of regular relations we present a new proof of the strict Tychonoff embedding theorem for strictly completely regular ordered spaces.     

Conditional weak compactness in vector-valued function spaces

Let be a subspace of the space of equivalence classes of strongly measurable functions and consisting of all those for which the scalar function belongs to . For a subset of for which the set is -bounded the following statement is equivalent to conditional -compactness: the set is conditionally -compact and is a conditionally weakly compact subset of for each , with . Applications to Orlicz-Bochner spaces are given.

     

Extreme contractions on continuous vector-valued function spaces

An old question asks whether extreme contractions on are necessarily nice; that is, whether the conjugate of such an operator maps extreme points of the dual ball to extreme points. Partial results have been obtained. Determining which operators are extreme seems to be a difficult task, even in the scalar case. Here we consider the case of extreme contractions on , where itself is a Banach space. We show that every extreme contraction on to itself which maps extreme points to elements of norm one is nice, where is compact and is the sequence space .

     

Isometries between Banach spaces of Lipschitz functions

The Banach spaces Lip ^a (S, Δ), lip ^a (S, Δ), Lip ^a (S, Δ;s ₀) and lip ^a (S, Δ;s ₀) of Lipschitz functions are defined. We shall identify the extreme points of the unit balls in their corresponding dual spaces and make use of them to present a complete characterization of the isometries between these function spaces. This paper is a part of the author’s M.Sc. thesis which was prepared under the guidance of Dr. Y. Benyamini.     

Order-weakly compact operators from vector-valued function spaces to Banach spaces

Let be an ideal of over a  -finite measure space , and let stand for the order dual of . For a real Banach space let be a subspace of the space of -equivalence classes of strongly -measurable functions and consisting of all those for which the scalar function belongs to . For a real Banach space a linear operator is said to be order-weakly compact whenever for each the set is relatively weakly compact in . In this paper we examine order-weakly compact operators . We give a characterization of an order-weakly compact operator in terms of the continuity of the conjugate operator of with respect to some weak topologies. It is shown that if is an order continuous Banach function space, is a Banach space containing no isomorphic copy of and is a weakly sequentially complete Banach space, then every continuous linear operator is order-weakly compact. Moreover, it is proved that if is a Banach function space, then for every Banach space any continuous linear operator is order-weakly compact iff the norm is order continuous and is reflexive. In particular, for every Banach space any continuous linear operator is order-weakly compact iff is reflexive.

     

The strict topology in non-Archimedean vector-valued function spaces

Let F be a non-trivial complete non-Archimedean valued field. We study the strict topology β₀ on the space C_b(X,E) of all bounded continuous functions from a topological space X to a non-Archimedean F-locally convex space E over F. We also show that the dual of the space (C_b(X,E), β_o) is a certain space of E′-valued measures and we give a characterization of the equicontinuous subsets of this dual space.     

Adjoints of semigroups acting on vector-valued function spaces

LetT(t) be the translation group onY=C ₀(ℝ×K)=C ₀(ℝ)⊗C(K),K compact Hausdorff, defined byT(t)f(x, y)=f(x+t, y). In this paper we give several representations of the sun-dialY ^⊙ corresponding to this group. Motivated by the solution of this problem, viz.Y ^⊙=L ¹(ℝ)⊗M(K), we develop a duality theorem for semigroups of the formT ₀(t)⊗id on tensor productsZ⊗X of Banach spaces, whereT ₀(t) is a semigroup onZ. Under appropriate compactness assumptions, depending on the kind of tensor product taken, we show that the sun-dial ofZ⊗X is given byZ ^⊙⊗X*. These results are applied to determine the sun-dials for semigroups induced on spaces of vector-valued functions, e.g.C ₀(Ω;X) andL ^p (μ;X).

Isometries in hyperbolic spaces

Suppose that f:Hn → Hn (n≥2) maps any r-dimensional hyperplane (1≤rn) into an r-dimensional hyperplane. In this paper, we prove that f is an isometry if and only if f is a surjective map. This result gives an affirmative answer to a recent conjecture due to Li and Yao.     

Periodic solutions of integro-differential equations in vector-valued function spaces

Operator-valued Fourier multipliers are used to study well-posedness of integro-differential equations in Banach spaces. Both strong and mild periodic solutions are considered. Strong well-posedness corresponds to maximal regularity which has proved very efficient in the handling of nonlinear problems. We are concerned with a large array of vector-valued function spaces: Lebesgue-Bochner spaces Lp, the Besov spaces (and related spaces such as the Hölder-Zygmund spaces Cs) and the Triebel-Lizorkin spaces . We note that the multiplier results in these last two scales of spaces involve only boundedness conditions on the resolvents and are therefore applicable to arbitrary Banach spaces. The results are applied to various classes of nonlinear integral and integro-differential equations.
