It is proved that a Köthe sequence space is weakly orthogonal if and only if it is order continuous. Criteria for weak property () in Orlicz sequence spaces in the case of the Luxemburg norm as well as the Orlicz norm are given.
Köthe and Toeplitz introduced the theory of sequence spaces and established many of the basic properties of sequence spaces by using methods of classical analysis. Later many of these same properties of sequence spaces were reestablished by using soft proofs of functional analysis. In this note we would like to point out that an improved version of a classical lemma of Schur due to Hahn can be used to give very short proofs of two of the weak sequential completeness results of Köthe and Toeplitz....
The analytic-spectral structure of the commutant of a weighted shift operator defined on a lp space (1 ≤ p < ∞) is studied. The cases unilateral, bilateral and quasinilpotent are treated. We apply the results to study certain questions related to unicellularity, strictly cyclicity and the existence of hyperinvariant subspaces.
