Given a Banach space X, for n ∈ ℕ and p ∈ (1,∞) we investigate the smallest constant ∈ (0,∞) for which every n-tuple of functions f₁,...,fₙ: -1,1ⁿ → X satisfies - 1 , 1 | | j = 1 n j f j ( ε ) | | p d μ ( ε ) p - 1 , 1 - 1 , 1 | | j = 1 n δ j Δ f j ( ε ) | | p d μ ( ε ) d μ ( δ ) , where μ is the uniform probability measure on the discrete hypercube -1,1ⁿ, and j j = 1 n and Δ = j = 1 n j are the hypercube partial derivatives and the hypercube Laplacian, respectively. Denoting this constant by p ( X ) , we show that p ( X ) k = 1 n 1 / k for every Banach space (X,||·||). This extends the classical Pisier inequality, which corresponds to the special case f j = Δ - 1 j f for some f: -1,1ⁿ → X. We show that s u p n p ( X ) < if either the dual X* is a UMD⁺ Banach space, or for some θ ∈ (0,1) we have X = [ H , Y ] θ , where H is a Hilbert space and Y is an arbitrary Banach space. It follows that s u p n p ( X ) < if X is a Banach lattice of nontrivial type.

Denoting this constant by $ⁿ_{p}(X)$, we show that $ⁿ_{p}(X) ≤ ∑_{k=1}^{n} 1/k$ for every Banach space (X,||·||). This extends the classical Pisier inequality, which corresponds to the special case $f_{j} = Δ^{-1}∂_{j} f$ for some f: -1,1ⁿ → X. We show that $sup_{n∈ ℕ }ⁿ_{p}(X) < ∞$ if either the dual X* is a UMD⁺ Banach space, or for some θ ∈ (0,1) we have $X = [H,Y]_{θ}$, where H is a Hilbert space and Y is an arbitrary Banach space. It follows that $sup_{n∈ ℕ}ⁿ_{p}(X) < ∞$ if X is a Banach lattice of nontrivial type.
