We introduce the notion of projective generator on a given Banach space. Weakly countably determined and dual spaces with the Radon Nikodým property have projective generators. If a Banach space has projective generator, then it admits a projective resolution of the identity. When a Banach space and its dual both have a projective generator then the space admits a shrinking resolution of the identity. These results include previous ones of Amir and Lindenstrauss, John and Zizler, Gul?ko, Vaak, Tacon,...
We present a simple proof of a theorem that yields as a corollary a result of Valdivia that sharpens an old result of Johnson and Rosenthal.
Suppose that is a Fréchet space, is a regular method of summability and is a bounded sequence in . We prove that there exists a subsequence of such that: either (a) all the subsequences of are summable to a common limit with respect to ; or (b) no subsequence of is summable with respect to . This result generalizes the Erdös-Magidor theorem which refers to summability of bounded sequences in Banach spaces. We also show that two analogous results for some -locally convex spaces...
