Extreme compact operators from Orlicz spaces to
Let be the subspace of finite elements of an Orlicz space endowed with the Luxemburg norm. The main theorem says that a compact linear operator is extreme if and only if on a dense subset of , where is a compact Hausdorff topological space and . This is done via the description of the extreme points of the space of continuous functions , being an Orlicz space equipped with the Orlicz norm (conjugate to the Luxemburg one). There is also given a theorem on closedness of the set of extreme...
