We show that a B-space E has the (CRP) if and only if any dominated operator T from C[0, 1] into E is compact. Hence we apply this result to prove that c0 embeds isomorphically into the B-space of all compact operators from C[0, 1] into an arbitrary B-space E without the (CRP).

Given a positive Banach-Saks operator T between two Banach lattices E and F, we give sufficient conditions on E and F in order to ensure that every positive operator dominated by T is Banach-Saks. A counterexample is also given when these conditions are dropped. Moreover, we deduce a characterization of the Banach-Saks property in Banach lattices in terms of disjointness.

We consider majorization problems in the non-commutative setting. More specifically, suppose E and F are ordered normed spaces (not necessarily lattices), and 0 ≤ T ≤ S in B(E,F). If S belongs to a certain ideal (for instance, the ideal of compact or Dunford-Pettis operators), does it follow that T belongs to that ideal as well? We concentrate on the case when E and F are C*-algebras, preduals of von Neumann algebras, or non-commutative function spaces. In particular, we show that, for C*-algebras...

We recall from [9] the definition and properties of an algebra cone C of a real or complex Banach algebra A. It can be shown that C induces on A an ordering which is compatible with the algebraic structure of A. The Banach algebra A is then called an ordered Banach algebra. An important property that the algebra cone C may have is that of normality. If C is normal, then the order structure and the topology of A are reconciled in a certain way. Ordered Banach algebras have interesting spectral properties....

This paper is a continuation of [5] and provides necessary and sufficient conditions for double exponential integrability of the Bessel potential of functions from suitable (generalized) Lorentz-Zygmund spaces. These results are used to establish embedding theorems for Bessel potential spaces which extend Trudinger's result.

We present a user-friendly version of a double operator integration theory which still retains a capacity for many useful applications. Using recent results from the latter theory applied in noncommutative geometry, we derive applications to analogues of the classical Heinz inequality, a simplified proof of a famous inequality of Birman-Koplienko-Solomyak and also to the Connes-Moscovici inequality. Our methods are sufficiently strong to treat these...

Let $-(n+1)<m\le -(n+1)(1-\rho )$ and let $T_a\in {ℒ}_{\rho ,\delta }^m$ be pseudo-differential operators with symbols $a(x,\xi )\in {ℝ}^n\times {ℝ}^n$, where $0<\rho \le 1$, $0\le \delta <1$ and $\delta \le \rho$. Let $\mu$, $\lambda$ be weights in Muckenhoupt classes $A_p$, $\nu ={\left(\mu {\lambda }^{-1}\right)}^{1/p}$ for some $1<p<\infty$. We establish a two-weight inequality for commutators generated by pseudo-differential operators $T_a$ with weighted BMO functions $b\in {\mathrm{BMO}}_{\nu }$, namely, the commutator $[b,T_a]$ is bounded from $L^p\left(\mu \right)$ into $L^p\left(\lambda \right)$. Furthermore, the range of $m$ can be extended to the whole $m\le -(n+1)(1-\rho )$.

In this note we establish a vector-valued version of Beurling’s theorem (the Lax-Halmos theorem) for the polydisc. As an application of the main result, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the “weak” completion problem in $H^{\infty }\left(ⁿ\right)$.

We study representations of Banach algebras on reflexive Banach spaces. Algebras which admit such representations which are bounded below seem to be a good generalisation of Arens regular Banach algebras; this class includes dual Banach algebras as defined by Runde, but also all group algebras, and all discrete (weakly cancellative) semigroup algebras. Such algebras also behave in a similar way to C*- and W*-algebras; we show that interpolation space techniques can be used in place of GNS type arguments....

In this paper we establish a dual weak convergence theorem for the Ishikawa iteration process for nonexpansive mappings in a reflexive and strictly convex Banach space with a uniformly Gâteaux differentiable norm, and then apply this result to study the problem of the weak convergence of the iteration process.
