In recent papers, the Right and the Strong* topologies have been introduced and studied on general Banach spaces. We characterize different types of continuity for multilinear operators (joint, uniform, etc.) with respect to the above topologies. We also study the relations between them. Finally, in the last section, we relate the joint Strong*-to-norm continuity of a multilinear operator T defined on C*-algebras (respectively, JB*-triples) to C*-summability (respectively, JB*-triple-summability)....

The space of the fully absolutely (r;r1,...,rn)-summing n-linear mappings between Banach spaces is introduced along with a natural (quasi-)norm on it. If r,rk C [1,+infinite], k=1,...,n, this space is characterized as the topological dual of a space of virtually nuclear mappings. Other examples and properties are considered and a relationship with a topological tensor product is stablished. For Hilbert spaces and r = r1 = ... = rn C [2,+infinite[ this space is isomorphic to the space of the Hilbert-Schmidt...

We introduce and investigate the non-n-linear concept of fully summing mappings; if n = 1 this concept coincides with the notion of nonlinear absolutely summing mappings and in this sense this article unifies these two theories. We also introduce a non-n-linear definition of Hilbert-Schmidt mappings and sketch connections between this concept and fully summing mappings.
