A Banach space X with a Schauder basis is defined to have the restricted quotient hereditarily indecomposable property if X/Y is hereditarily indecomposable for any infinite-codimensional subspace Y with a successive finite-dimensional decomposition on the basis of X. The following dichotomy theorem is proved: any infinite-dimensional Banach space contains a quotient of a subspace which either has an unconditional basis, or has the restricted quotient hereditarily indecomposable property.
We prove that the symmetric convexified Tsirelson space is of weak cotype 2 but not of cotype 2.
2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 46B26, 46B03, 46B04.We prove that a Banach space X is weakly Lindelöf determined if (and only if) each non-separable Banach space isomorphic to a
complemented subspace of X has a projectional resolution of the identity.
This answers a question posed by S. Mercourakis and S. Negrepontis and yields a converse of Amir-Lindenstrauss’ theorem. We also prove that a Banach space of the form C(K) where K is a continuous image of a Valdivia compactum is weakly Lindelöf...
We construct a totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space K₊ which has clopen subsets K₊” ⊆ K₊’ ⊆ K₊ such that K₊” is homeomorphic to K₊ and hence C(K₊”) is isometric as a Banach space to C(K₊) but C(K₊’) is not isomorphic to C(K₊). This gives two nonisomorphic Banach spaces (necessarily nonseparable) of the form C(K) which are isomorphic to complemented subspaces of each other (even in the above strong isometric sense), providing a solution to the Schroeder-Bernstein problem for Banach spaces...
For every countable ordinal α, we construct an -predual which is isometric to a subspace of and isomorphic to a quotient of . However, is not isomorphic to a subspace of .
A family is constructed of cardinality equal to the continuum, whose members are totally incomparable hereditarily indecomposable Banach spaces.
We give an alternative proof of W. T. Gowers' theorem on block bases by reducing it to a discrete analogue on specific countable nets. We also give a Ramsey type result on k-tuples of block sequences in a normed linear space with a Schauder basis.
The famous Gowers tree space is the first example of a space not containing c₀, ℓ₁ or a reflexive subspace. We present a space with a similar construction and prove that it is hereditarily indecomposable (HI) and has ℓ₂ as a quotient space. Furthermore, we show that every bounded linear operator on it is of the form λI + W where W is a weakly compact (hence strictly singular) operator.
2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 46B20, 46B26.We construct a non-reflexive, l^2 saturated Banach space such that every non-reflexive subspace has non-separable dual.
We show that if the Szlenk index of a Banach space X is larger than the first infinite ordinal ω or if the Szlenk index of its dual is larger than ω, then the tree of all finite sequences of integers equipped with the hyperbolic distance metrically embeds into X. We show that the converse is true when X is assumed to be reflexive. As an application, we exhibit new classes of Banach spaces that are stable under coarse-Lipschitz embeddings and therefore under uniform homeomorphisms.
Let X,Y,A and B be Banach spaces such that X is isomorphic to Y ⊕ A and Y is isomorphic to X ⊕ B. In 1996, W. T. Gowers solved the Schroeder-Bernstein problem for Banach spaces by showing that X is not necessarily isomorphic to Y. In the present paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition on sextuples (p,q,r,s,u,v) in ℕ with p + q ≥ 2, r + s ≥ 1 and u, v ∈ ℕ* for X to be isomorphic to Y whenever these spaces satisfy the following decomposition scheme:
⎧ ,
⎨
⎩ .
Namely, Ω = (p-u)(s-r-v)...
It is shown that every strongly lattice norm on can be approximated by smooth norms. We also show that there is no lattice and Gâteaux differentiable norm on .
