Spaces of operators and c₀

P. Lewis (2001)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Bessaga and Pełczyński showed that if c₀ embeds in the dual X* of a Banach space X, then ℓ¹ embeds complementably in X, and embeds as a subspace of X*. In this note the Diestel-Faires theorem and techniques of Kalton are used to show that if X is an infinite-dimensional Banach space, Y is an arbitrary Banach space, and c₀ embeds in L(X,Y), then embeds in L(X,Y), and ℓ¹ embeds complementably in X γ Y * . Applications to embeddings of c₀ in various spaces of operators are given.

On the number of non-isomorphic subspaces of a Banach space

Valentin Ferenczi, Christian Rosendal (2005)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We study the number of non-isomorphic subspaces of a given Banach space. Our main result is the following. Let be a Banach space with an unconditional basis ( e i ) i ; then either there exists a perfect set P of infinite subsets of ℕ such that for any two distinct A,B ∈ P, [ e i ] i A [ e i ] i B , or for a residual set of infinite subsets A of ℕ, [ e i ] i A is isomorphic to , and in that case, is isomorphic to its square, to its hyperplanes, uniformly isomorphic to [ e i ] i D for any D ⊂ ℕ, and isomorphic to a denumerable Schauder...

On monotonic functions from the unit interval into a Banach space with uncountable sets of points of discontinuity

Artur Michalak (2003)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We say that a function f from [0,1] to a Banach space X is increasing with respect to E ⊂ X* if x* ∘ f is increasing for every x* ∈ E. We show that if f: [0,1] → X is an increasing function with respect to a norming subset E of X* with uncountably many points of discontinuity and Q is a countable dense subset of [0,1], then (1) l i n f ( [ 0 , 1 ] ) ¯ contains an order isomorphic copy of D(0,1), (2) l i n f ( Q ) ¯ contains an isomorphic copy of C([0,1]), (3) l i n f ( [ 0 , 1 ] ) ¯ / l i n f ( Q ) ¯ contains an isomorphic copy of c₀(Γ) for some uncountable...

A note on a class of homeomorphisms between Banach spaces

Colloquium Mathematicae

This paper deals with homeomorphisms F: X → Y, between Banach spaces X and Y, which are of the form F ( x ) : = F ̃ x ( 2 n + 1 ) where F ̃ : X 2 n + 1 Y is a continuous (2n+1)-linear operator.

On Some Properties of Separately Increasing Functions from [0,1]ⁿ into a Banach Space

Artur Michalak (2014)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We say that a function f from [0,1] to a Banach space X is increasing with respect to E ⊂ X* if x* ∘ f is increasing for every x* ∈ E. A function f : [ 0 , 1 ] m X is separately increasing if it is increasing in each variable separately. We show that if X is a Banach space that does not contain any isomorphic copy of c₀ or such that X* is separable, then for every separately increasing function f : [ 0 , 1 ] m X with respect to any norming subset there exists a separately increasing function g : [ 0 , 1 ] m such that the sets of...

On Banach spaces C(K) isomorphic to c₀(Γ)

Witold Marciszewski (2003)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We give a characterization of compact spaces K such that the Banach space C(K) is isomorphic to the space c₀(Γ) for some set Γ. As an application we show that there exists an Eberlein compact space K of weight ω ω and with the third derived set K ( 3 ) empty such that the space C(K) is not isomorphic to any c₀(Γ). For this compactum K, the spaces C(K) and c ( ω ω ) are examples of weakly compactly generated (WCG) Banach spaces which are Lipschitz isomorphic but not isomorphic.

Abstract semilinear equations in Banach spaces

Similarity:

Si studiano le proprietà delle soluzioni dell'equazione semilineare astratta u ( t ) = Λ u ( t ) + φ ( t , u ( t ) ) quando Λ è il generatore infinitesimale di un semigruppo analitico in uno spazio di Banach. Vengono provati nuovi teoremi di regolarità anche nel caso in cui φ non è continuo in tutto lo spazio.

On the existence of non-linear frames

Shah Jahan, Varinder Kumar, S.K. Kaushik (2017)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

A stronger version of the notion of frame in Banach space called Strong Retro Banach frame (SRBF) is defined and studied. It has been proved that if 𝒳 is a Banach space such that 𝒳 * has a SRBF, then 𝒳 has a Bi-Banach frame with some geometric property. Also, it has been proved that if a Banach space 𝒳 has an approximative Schauder frame, then 𝒳 * has a SRBF. Finally, the existence of a non-linear SRBF in the conjugate of a separable Banach space has been proved.

A separable Banach space X contains 1 isomorphically if and only if X has a bounded fundamental total w c 0 * -stable biorthogonal system. The dual of a separable Banach space X fails the Schur property if and only if X has a bounded fundamental total w c 0 * -biorthogonal system.

(Non-)amenability of ℬ(E)

Volker Runde (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

In 1972, the late B. E. Johnson introduced the notion of an amenable Banach algebra and asked whether the Banach algebra ℬ(E) of all bounded linear operators on a Banach space E could ever be amenable if dim E = ∞. Somewhat surprisingly, this question was answered positively only very recently as a by-product of the Argyros-Haydon result that solves the “scalar plus compact problem”: there is an infinite-dimensional Banach space E, the dual of which is ℓ¹, such that ( E ) = ( E ) + i d E . Still, ℬ(ℓ²) is...

Denote by any set of cardinality continuum. It is proved that a Banach algebra A with the property that for every collection a α : α A there exist α ≠ β ∈ such that a α a β A is isomorphic to i = 1 r ( [ X ] / X d i [ X ] ) E , where d , . . . , d r , and E is either X [ X ] / X d [ X ] for some d₀ ∈ ℕ or a 1-dimensional i = 1 r [ X ] / X d i [ X ] -bimodule with trivial right module action. In particular, ℂ is the unique non-zero prime Banach algebra satisfying the above condition.

Elementary operators on Banach algebras and Fourier transform

Miloš Arsenović, Dragoljub Kečkić (2006)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We consider elementary operators x j = 1 n a j x b j , acting on a unital Banach algebra, where a j and b j are separately commuting families of generalized scalar elements. We give an ascent estimate and a lower bound estimate for such an operator. Additionally, we give a weak variant of the Fuglede-Putnam theorem for an elementary operator with strongly commuting families a j and b j , i.e. a j = a j ' + i a j ' ' ( b j = b j ' + i b j ' ' ), where all a j ' and a j ' ' ( b j ' and b j ' ' ) commute. The main tool is an L¹ estimate of the Fourier transform of a certain class...

A note on extensions of Pełczyński's decomposition method in Banach spaces

Elói Medina Galego (2007)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

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: ⎧ X u X p Y q , ⎨ ⎩ Y v A r B s . Namely, Ω =...

Let X,Y be Banach spaces, f: X → Y be an isometry with f(0) = 0, and T : s p a n ¯ ( f ( X ) ) X be the Figiel operator with T f = I d X and ||T|| = 1. We present a sufficient and necessary condition for the Figiel operator T to admit a linear isometric right inverse. We also prove that such a right inverse exists when s p a n ¯ ( f ( X ) ) is weakly nearly strictly convex.

On complemented copies of c₀(ω₁) in C(Kⁿ) spaces

Leandro Candido, Piotr Koszmider (2016)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Given a compact Hausdorff space K we consider the Banach space of real continuous functions C(Kⁿ) or equivalently the n-fold injective tensor product ̂ ε n C ( K ) or the Banach space of vector valued continuous functions C(K,C(K,C(K...,C(K)...). We address the question of the existence of complemented copies of c₀(ω₁) in ̂ ε n C ( K ) under the hypothesis that C(K) contains such a copy. This is related to the results of E. Saab and P. Saab that X ̂ ε Y contains a complemented copy of c₀ if one of the infinite-dimensional...

Reflexivity and approximate fixed points

Eva Matoušková, Simeon Reich (2003)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

A Banach space X is reflexive if and only if every bounded sequence xₙ in X contains a norm attaining subsequence. This means that it contains a subsequence x n k for which s u p f S X * l i m s u p k f ( x n k ) is attained at some f in the dual unit sphere S X * . A Banach space X is not reflexive if and only if it contains a normalized sequence xₙ with the property that for every f S X * , there exists g S X * such that l i m s u p n f ( x ) < l i m i n f n g ( x ) . Combining this with a result of Shafrir, we conclude that every infinite-dimensional Banach space contains an unbounded...

Geometry of the Banach spaces C(βℕ × K,X) for compact metric spaces K

Dale E. Alspach, Elói Medina Galego (2011)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

A classical result of Cembranos and Freniche states that the C(K,X) space contains a complemented copy of c₀ whenever K is an infinite compact Hausdorff space and X is an infinite-dimensional Banach space. This paper takes this result as a starting point and begins a study of conditions under which the spaces C(α), α < ω₁, are quotients of or complemented in C(K,X). In contrast to the c₀ result, we prove that if C(βℕ ×[1,ω],X) contains a complemented copy of C ( ω ω ) then X contains a copy...

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

We present an extension of the classical isomorphic classification of the Banach spaces C([0,α]) of all real continuous functions defined on the nondenumerable intervals of ordinals [0,α].

Consequently,...

Hermann Pfitzner (2010)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

A Banach space is said to be L-embedded if it is complemented in its bidual in such a way that the norm between the two complementary subspaces is additive. We prove that the dual of a non-reflexive L-embedded Banach space contains l isometrically.

Pisier's inequality revisited

Tuomas Hytönen, Assaf Naor (2013)

Studia Mathematica

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...

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

For each ordinal α < ω₁, we prove the existence of a Banach space with a basis and Szlenk index ω α + 1 which is universal for the class of separable Banach spaces with Szlenk index not exceeding ω α . Our proof involves developing a characterization of which Banach spaces embed into spaces with an FDD with upper Schreier space estimates.

The extension of the Krein-Šmulian theorem for order-continuous Banach lattices

If X is a Banach space and C ⊂ X a convex subset, for x** ∈ X** and A ⊂ X** let d(x**,C) = inf||x**-x||: x ∈ C be the distance from x** to C and d̂(A,C) = supd(a,C): a ∈ A. Among other things, we prove that if X is an order-continuous Banach lattice and K is a w*-compact subset of X** we have: (i) d ̂ ( c o ¯ w * ( K ) , X ) 2 d ̂ ( K , X ) and, if K ∩ X is w*-dense in K, then d ̂ ( c o ¯ w * ( K ) , X ) = d ̂ ( K , X ) ; (ii) if X fails to have a copy of ℓ₁(ℵ₁), then d ̂ ( c o ¯ w * ( K ) , X ) = d ̂ ( K , X ) ; (iii) if X has a 1-symmetric basis, then d ̂ ( c o ¯ w * ( K ) , X ) = d ̂ ( K , X ) .

Essentially Incomparable Banach Spaces of Continuous Functions

Rogério Augusto dos Santos Fajardo (2010)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We construct, under Axiom ♢, a family ( C ( K ξ ) ) ξ < 2 ( 2 ω ) of indecomposable Banach spaces with few operators such that every operator from C ( K ξ ) into C ( K η ) is weakly compact, for all ξ ≠ η. In particular, these spaces are pairwise essentially incomparable. Assuming no additional set-theoretic axiom, we obtain this result with size 2 ω instead of 2 ( 2 ω ) .

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let A be a unital Banach function algebra with character space Φ A . For x Φ A , let M x and J x be the ideals of functions vanishing at x and in a neighbourhood of x, respectively. It is shown that the hull of J x is connected, and that if x does not belong to the Shilov boundary of A then the set y Φ A : M x J y has an infinite connected subset. Various related results are given.

We give some sufficient conditions for the multiplication operator, M z , to be unicellular on the Banach space p ( β ) . This generalizes the main results obtained by Lu Fang [1].

Rosenthal operator spaces

M. Junge, N. J. Nielsen, T. Oikhberg (2008)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

In 1969 Lindenstrauss and Rosenthal showed that if a Banach space is isomorphic to a complemented subspace of an L p -space, then it is either an L p -space or isomorphic to a Hilbert space. This is the motivation of this paper where we study non-Hilbertian complemented operator subspaces of non-commutative L p -spaces and show that this class is much richer than in the commutative case. We investigate the local properties of some new classes of operator spaces for every 2 < p < ∞ which...

Decompositions for real Banach spaces with small spaces of operators

We consider real Banach spaces X for which the quotient algebra (X)/ℐn(X) is finite-dimensional, where ℐn(X) stands for the ideal of inessential operators on X. We show that these spaces admit a decomposition as a finite direct sum of indecomposable subspaces X i for which ( X i ) / n ( X i ) is isomorphic as a real algebra to either the real numbers ℝ, the complex numbers ℂ, or the quaternion numbers ℍ. Moreover, the set of subspaces X i can be divided into subsets in such a way that if X i and X j are in different...

Uniqueness of unconditional basis of p ( c ) and p ( ) , 0 < p < 1

F. Albiac, C. Leránoz (2002)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We prove that the quasi-Banach spaces p ( c ) and p ( ) (0 < p < 1) have a unique unconditional basis up to permutation. Bourgain, Casazza, Lindenstrauss and Tzafriri have previously proved that the same is true for the respective Banach envelopes ( c ) and ℓ₁(ℓ₂). They used duality techniques which are not available in the non-locally convex case.

Embeddings of C(K) spaces into C(S,X) spaces with distortion strictly less than 3

Leandro Candido, Elói Medina Galego (2013)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

In the spirit of the classical Banach-Stone theorem, we prove that if K and S are intervals of ordinals and X is a Banach space having non-trivial cotype, then the existence of an isomorphism T from C(K, X) onto C(S,X) with distortion | | T | | | | T - 1 | | strictly less than 3 implies that some finite topological sum of K is homeomorphic to some finite topological sum of S. Moreover, if Xⁿ contains no subspace isomorphic to X n + 1 for every n ∈ ℕ, then K is homeomorphic to S. In other words, we obtain a vector-valued...

Let G be a locally compact group. We use the canonical operator space structure on the spaces L p ( G ) for p ∈ [1,∞] introduced by G. Pisier to define operator space analogues O A p ( G ) of the classical Figà-Talamanca-Herz algebras A p ( G ) . If p ∈ (1,∞) is arbitrary, then A p ( G ) O A p ( G ) and the inclusion is a contraction; if p = 2, then OA₂(G) ≅ A(G) as Banach spaces, but not necessarily as operator spaces. We show that O A p ( G ) is a completely contractive Banach algebra for each p ∈ (1,∞), and that O A q ( G ) O A p ( G ) completely contractively...
