Extensions of holomorphic maps through hypersurfaces and relations to the Hartogs extensions in infinite dimension

A generalization of Kwack's theorem to the infinite dimensional case is obtained. We consider a holomorphic map from into , where is a hypersurface in a complex Banach manifold and is a hyperbolic Banach space. Under various assumptions on , and we show that can be extended to a holomorphic map from into . Moreover, it is proved that an increasing union of pseudoconvex domains containing no complex lines has the Hartogs extension property.

Completely continuous multilinear operators on spaces

Given a -linear operator from a product of spaces into a Banach space , our main result proves the equivalence between being completely continuous, having an -valued separately continuous extension to the product of the biduals and having a regular associated polymeasure. It is well known that, in the linear case, these are also equivalent to being weakly compact, and that, for , being weakly compact implies the conditions above but the converse fails.

For the situation is quite different. While this condition is still sufficient, when (in contrast to the one dimensional situation) there exist sampling sequences for whose admissible accumulation set has measure 0. We also consider the sequence obtained by applying to each a random rotation, and give a necessary and sufficient condition on so that, with probability one, is of sampling for , .
