A characterisation is provided for the weak closure of the set of rearrangements of a function on an unbounded domain. The extreme points of this convex, weakly compact set are classified. This result is used to study the maximising sequences of a variational problem for steady vortices.

AbstractA closed convex subset X of a Banach space E is said to have (i) asymptotic normal structure if for each bounded closed convex subset C of X containing more than one point and for each sequence in C satisfying ‖xn − xn + 1‖ → 0 as n → ∞, there is a point x ∈ C such that ; (ii) close-to-normal structure if for each bounded closed convex subset C of X containing more than one point, there is a point x ∈ C such that ‖x − y‖ < diam‖ ‖(C) for all y ∈ C While asymptotic normal structure and close-to-normal structure are both implied by normal structure, they are not related. The example that a reflexive Banach space which has asymptotic normal structure but not close-to normal structure provides us a non-empty weakly compact convex set which does not have close-to-normal structure. This answers an open question posed by Wong in [9] and hence also provides us a Kannan map defined on a weakly compact convex set which does not have a fixed point.

Throughout we consider operators on a reflexive Banach space X. We consider certain algebraic properties of F(X), K(X) and B(X) with the general aim of examining their dependence on the possession by X of the approximation property. B(X) (resp. K(X)) denotes the algebra of all bounded (resp. compact) operators on X and F(X) denotes the closure in B(X) of its finite rank operators. The two questions we consider are:(1) Is K(X) equal to the set of all operators in B(X) whose right and left multiplication operators on F(X) (or on B(X)) are weakly compact?(2) Is F(X) a dual algebra?

Abstract For 0 ≤ ξ ≤ ω1, we define the notion of ξ-weakly precompact and ξ-weakly compact sets in Banach spaces and prove that a set is ξ-weakly precompact if and only if its weak closure is ξ-weakly compact. We prove a quantified version of Grothendieck’s compactness principle and the characterisation of Schur spaces obtained in [7] and [9]. For 0 ≤ ξ ≤ ω1, we prove that a Banach space X has the ξ-Schur property if and only if every ξ-weakly compact set is contained in the closed, convex hull of a weakly null (equivalently, norm null) sequence. The ξ = 0 and ξ= ω1 cases of this theorem are the theorems of Grothendieck and [7], [9], respectively.

1. In this paper, we investigate the ranges of projections on certain Banach spaces of functions defined on a diadic tree. The notion of a “tree-like” Banach space is due to James 4], who used it to construct the separable space JT which has nonseparable dual and yet does not contain l1. This idea has proved useful. In [3], Hagler constructed a hereditarily c0 tree space, HT, and Schechtman [6] constructed, for each 1 ≦ p ≦ ∞, a reflexive Banach space, STp with a 1-unconditional basis which does not contain lp yet is uniformly isomorphic to for each n.In [1] we showed that if U is a bounded linear operator on JT, then there exists a subspace W ⊂ JT, isomorphic to JT such that either U or (1 — U) acts as an isomorphism on W and UW or (1 — U)W is complemented in JT. In this paper, we establish this result for the Hagler and Schechtman tree spaces.

A Banach space E is said to have Property (w) if every operator from E into E' is weakly compact. This property was introduced by E. and P. Saab in [9]. They observe that for Banach lattices, Property (w) is equivalent to Property (V*), which in turn is equivalent to the Banach lattice having a weakly sequentially complete dual. Thus the following question was raised in [9].Does every Banach space with Property (w) have a weakly sequentially complete dual, or even Property (V*)?In this paper, we give two examples, both of which answer the question in the negative. Both examples are James type spaces considered in [1]. They both possess properties stronger than Property (w). The first example has the property that every operator from the space into the dual is compact. In the second example, both the space and its dual have Property (w). In the last section we establish some partial results concerning the problem (also raised in [9]) of whether (w) passes from a Banach space E to C(K, E).

Suppose M be the projective limit of weak symplectic Banach manifolds {(Mi, ϕij)}i, j∈ℕ, where Mi are modeled over reflexive Banach space and σ is compatible with the projective system (defined in the article). We associate to each point x ∈ M, a Fréchet space Hx. We prove that if Hx are locally identical, then with certain smoothness and boundedness condition, there exists a Darboux chart for the weak symplectic structure.
