Parties admissibles d'un espace de Banach. Applications
Three sets occurring in functional analysis are shown to be of class PCA (also called ) and to be exactly of that class. The definition of each set is close to the usual objects of modern analysis, but some subtlety causes the sets to have a greater complexity than expected. Recent work in a similar direction is in [1, 2, 10, 11, 12].
It is proved that the Musielak-Orlicz function space LF(mu,X) of Bochner type is P-convex if and only if both spaces LF(mu,R) and X are P-convex. In particular, the Lebesgue-Bochner space Lp(mu,X) is P-convex iff X is P-convex.
We prove that in the Musielak-Orlicz sequence spaces equipped with the Luxemburg norm, P-convexity coincides with reflexivity.
The p-envelope of an F-space is the p-convex analogue of the Fréchet envelope. We show that if an F-space is locally bounded (i.e., a quasi-Banach space) with separating dual, then the p-envelope coincides with the Banach envelope only if the space is already locally convex. By contrast, we give examples of F-spaces with are not locally bounded nor locally convex for which the p-envelope and the Fréchet envelope are the same.
We prove that generalized Cantor sets of class α, α ≠ 2 have the extension property iff α < 2. Thus belonging of a compact set K to some finite class α cannot be a characterization for the existence of an extension operator. The result has some interconnection with potential theory.
