Containing l or c and best approximation.

Collectanea Mathematica

Similarity:

The purpose of this paper is to obtain sufficient conditions, for a Banach space X to contain or exclude c0 or l1, in terms of the sets of best approximants in X for the elements in the bidual space.

On subspaces of Banach spaces where every functional has a unique norm-preserving extension

Eve Oja, Märt Põldvere (1996)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let X be a Banach space and Y a closed subspace. We obtain simple geometric characterizations of Phelps' property U for Y in X (that every continuous linear functional g ∈ Y* has a unique norm-preserving extension f ∈ X*), which do not use the dual space X*. This enables us to give an intrinsic geometric characterization of preduals of strictly convex spaces close to the Beauzamy-Maurey-Lima-Uttersrud criterion of smoothness. This also enables us to prove that the U-property of the subspace...

Ideals of finite rank operators, intersection properties of balls, and the approximation property

Åsvald Lima, Eve Oja (1999)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We characterize the approximation property of Banach spaces and their dual spaces by the position of finite rank operators in the space of compact operators. In particular, we show that a Banach space E has the approximation property if and only if for all closed subspaces F of c 0 , the space ℱ(F,E) of finite rank operators from F to E has the n-intersection property in the corresponding space K(F,E) of compact operators for all n, or equivalently, ℱ(F,E) is an ideal in K(F,E). ...

Infinite-dimensional sets of constant width and their applications.

Angel Rodríguez Palacios (1990)

Extracta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Sets of constant width appear as a curiosity in the context of finite-dimensional Euclidean spaces. These sets are convex bodies of such an space with the property that the distance between any two distinct parallel supporting hyperplanes is constant. The easiest example of a set of constant width which is not a ball is the so called Reuleaux triangle in the Euclidean plane. This is the intersection of three closed discs of radius r, whose centers are the vertices of an equilateral triangle...
