On a solvability condition for systems with an injective symbol in terms of iterations of double layer potentials.
Let and . We prove that , the ideal of operators of Geľfand type , is contained in the ideal of -absolutely summing operators. For this generalizes a result of G. Bennett given for operators on a Hilbert space.
This survey features some recent developments concerning the bounded approximation property in Banach spaces. As a central theme, we discuss the weak bounded approximation property and the approximation property which is bounded for a Banach operator ideal. We also include an overview around the related long-standing open problem: Is the approximation property of a dual Banach space always metric?
It is proved that for a von Neumann algebra A ⊆ B(ℋ ) the subspace of normal maps is dense in the space of all completely bounded A-bimodule homomorphisms of B(ℋ ) in the point norm topology if and only if the same holds for the corresponding unit balls, which is the case if and only if A is atomic with no central summands of type . Then a duality result for normal operator modules is presented and applied to the following problem. Given an operator space X and a von Neumann algebra A, is the map...
