Uncomplementability of spaces of compact operators in larger spaces of operators

In the first part of the paper we prove some new result improving all those already known about the equivalence of the nonexistence of a projection (of any norm) onto the space of compact operators and the containment of c ₀ in the same space of compact operators. Then we show several results implying that the space of compact operators is uncomplemented by norm one projections in larger spaces of operators. The paper ends with a list of questions naturally rising from old results and the results in the paper.     

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.     

Factorizing operators on Banach function spaces through spaces of multiplication operators

In order to extend the theory of optimal domains for continuous operators on a Banach function space X(μ) over a finite measure μ, we consider operators T satisfying other type of inequalities than the one given by the continuity which occur in several well-known factorization theorems (for instance, Pisier Factorization Theorem through Lorentz spaces, pth-power factorable operators …). We prove that such a T factorizes through a space of multiplication operators which can be understood in a certain sense as the optimal domain for T. Our extended optimal domain technique does not need necessarily the equivalence between μ and the measure defined by the operator T and, by using δ-rings, μ is allowed to be infinite. Classical and new examples and applications of our results are also given, including some new results on the Hardy operator and a factorization theorem through Hilbert spaces.     

Points of Weak-Norm Continuity in the Unit Ball of Banach Spaces

Using the M-structure theory, we show that several classical function spaces and spaces of operators on them fail to have points of weak-norm continuity for the identity map on the unit ball. This gives a unified approach to several results in the literature that establish the failure of strong geometric structure in the unit ball of classical function spaces. Spaces covered by our result include the Bloch spaces, dual of the Bergman space L¹_a and spaces of operators on them, as well as the space C(T)/A, where A is the disc algebra on the unit circle T. For any unit vector f in an infinite-dimensional function algebra A we explicitly construct a sequence {f_n} in the unit ball of A that converges weakly to f but not in the norm.     

Fixed points for some non-obviously contractive operators

The use of K-normed spaces gives us the possibility to prove that a fixed point theorem due to B. Luo is equivalent to the Banach Contraction Principle. This confirms the conspiracy among fixed point theorems. Moreover the theorem of Lou is improved and extended to different contexts. A counterexample about the fixed points of the sum of a contraction and an integral operator is given. The usefulness of K-norm is tested on a Volterra integral equation as well.

     

Unconditional ideals of finite rank operators

Let X be a Banach space. We give characterizations of when is a u-ideal in for every Banach space Y in terms of nets of finite rank operators approximating weakly compact operators. Similar characterizations are given for the cases when is a u-ideal in for every Banach space Y, when is a u-ideal in for every Banach space Y, and when is a u-ideal in for every Banach space Y.     

Hahn-Banach extension operators and spaces of operators

If is an ideal in for all equivalently renormed versions of , then there exist Hahn-Banach extension operators and such that .

     

Composition operators on Banach function spaces

We study the boundedness and the compactness of composition operators on some Banach function spaces such as absolutely continuous Banach function spaces on a -finite measure space, Lorentz function spaces on a -finite measure space and rearrangement invariant spaces on a resonant measure space. In addition, we study some properties of the spectra of a composition operator on the general Banach function spaces.

     

Fixed points for mixed monotone multivalued operators in Banach spaces with applications

In this paper, the existence and iterative approximation of fixed points for a class of systems of mixed monotone multivalued operator are discussed. We present some new fixed point theorems of mixed monotone operators and increasing operators which need not be continuous or satisfy a compactness condition. We also give some applications to differential inclusions with discontinuous right hand side in Banach spaces and to Hammerstein integral inclusions on RN.     

Optimal behavior of weighted Hardy operators on rearrangement-invariant spaces

The behavior of certain weighted Hardy-type operators on rearrangement-invariant function spaces is thoroughly studied. Emphasis is put on the optimality of the obtained results. First, the optimal rearrangement-invariant function spaces guaranteeing the boundedness of the operators from/to a given rearrangement-invariant function space are described. Second, the optimal rearrangement-invariant function norms being sometimes complicated, the question of whether and how they can be simplified to more manageable expressions is addressed. Next, the relation between optimal rearrangement-invariant function spaces and interpolation spaces is investigated. Last, iterated weighted Hardy-type operators are also studied.

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.

Centripetal operators and Koszmider spaces

We study properties of Koszmider spaces and introduce a related notion of weakly Koszmider spaces. We show that if the space K is weakly Koszmider and C(K) is isomorphic to C(L) then L is also weakly Koszmider, but the analogous result does not hold for Koszmider spaces. We also show that a connected Koszmider space is strongly rigid.
