A weak Grothendieck compactness principle for Banach spaces with a symmetric basis

The Grothendieck compactness principle states that every norm compact subset of a Banach space is contained in the closed convex hull of a norm null sequence. In Dowling et al. (J Funct Anal 263(5):1378–1381, 2012), an analogue of the Grothendieck compactness principle for the weak topology was used to characterize Banach spaces with the Schur property. Using a different analogue of the Grothendieck compactness principle for the weak topology, a characterization of the Banach spaces with a symmetric basis that are not isomorphic to $\ell ^1$ and do not contain a subspace isomorphic to $c_0$ is given. As a corollary, it is shown that, in the Lorentz space $d(w,1)$ , every weakly compact set is contained in the closed convex hull of the rearrangement invariant hull of a norm null sequence.     

Embedding Banach spaces with unconditional bases into spaces with symmetric bases

Every reflexive Banach space with unconditional basis is isomorphic to a complemented subspace of a reflexive Banach space with symmetric basis.     

Isometries of diagonally symmetric Banach spaces

We describe all compact symmetric subgroups of the orthogonal groupO _n which contain the permutation groupS _n. There are seven such groups, each one can be realised as the group of all isometries on somen-dimensional Banach space. Authors were partially supported by N.S.F. grant MPS-74-06948-A01.     

The uniqueness of order in the spaces Lp[0, 1] andl p

It is considered to what extent the order in the spaces L_p andl _p is determined by the linearly topological type. It is proved that, for example, L₁ and L₂ have a unique continuous order, and the spacesl _p, p 2, admit only discrete orders.This work was completed when the second author was working at MIAN.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 18, No. 3, pp. 313–325, September, 1975.     

Banach spaces embedding intoL 0

Our main result in this paper is that a Banach spaceX embeds intoL ₁ if and only ifl ₁(X) embeds intoL ₀; more generally if 1≦p<2,X embeds intoL _p if and only ifl _p(X) embeds intoL ₀. Research supported by NSF grant MCS-8301099.     

Bloch spaces on bounded symmetric domains in complex Banach spaces

We give a definition of Bloch space on bounded symmetric domains in arbitrary complex Banach space and prove such function space is a Banach space. The properties such as boundedness, compactness and closed range of composition operators on such Bloch space are studied. Dedicated to Professor Sheng GONG on the occasion of his 75th birthday     

Absolutely summing polynomials on Banach spaces with unconditional basis

If X is a Banach space with a normalized unconditional Schauder basis (xn), we define whenever and obtain estimates for μX,(xn) when every continuous m-homogeneous polynomial from X into Y is absolutely (q,1) summing. Our results provide new information on coincidence situations between the space of absolutely summing m-homogeneous polynomials and the whole space of continuous m-homogeneous polynomials. In particular, when m=1, we obtain new contributions to the linear theory of absolutely summing operators.     

Onc 0 sequences in Banach spaces

A Banach space has property (S) if every normalized weakly null sequence contains a subsequences equivalent to the unit vector basis ofc ₀. We show that the equivalence constant can be chosen “uniformly”, i.e., independent of the choice of the normalized weakly null sequence. Furthermore we show that a Banach space with property (S) has property (u). This solves in the negative the conjecture that a separable Banach space with property (u) not containingl ₁ has a separable dual. This is part of this author's Ph.D. dissertation prepared at The University of Texas at Austin under the supervision of H. P. Rosenthal.

A characterization of 2-trivial Banach spaces with unconditional basis

Let X be a Banach space with an unconditional basis such that each operator from X into ² is 2-absolutely summing. Then X is isomorphic either to c_o or to ¹ or to c_o¹.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im. V. A.

Uniqueness of symmetric basis in quasi-Banach spaces

We show that if X is a nonlocally convex natural quasi-Banach space with symmetric basis whose Banach envelope is isomorphic to ?₁, then all symmetric bases of X are equivalent. The scope of this result is quite ample since the Banach envelopes of natural quasi-Banach spaces with basis always exhibit an ?₁-like behavior, in the sense that they contain copies of 's uniformly complemented.     

Eigenvalue estimates for operators on symmetric Banach sequence spaces

Using abstract interpolation theory, we study eigenvalue distribution problems for operators on complex symmetric Banach sequence spaces. More precisely, extending two well-known results due to König on the asymptotic eigenvalue distribution of operators on -spaces, we prove an eigenvalue estimate for Riesz operators on -spaces with , which take values in a -concave symmetric Banach sequence space , as well as a dual version, and show that each operator on a -convex symmetric Banach sequence space , which takes values in a -concave symmetric Banach sequence space , is a Riesz operator with a sequence of eigenvalues that forms a multiplier from into . Examples are presented which among others show that the concavity and convexity assumptions are essential.

Banach spaces without approximation properties of type p

The main purpose of this note is to show that the question posed in the paper [1] of D. P. Sinha D. P. and A. K. Karn (see the very end of that paper) has a negative answer, and that the answer could have been obtained, essentially, in 1985 after the papers [2], [3] by the author appeared in 1982 and 1985, respectively.
