Let K be a compact Hausdorff space and let E be a Banach space. We denote by C(K, E) the Banach space of all E-valued continuous functions defined on K, endowed with the supremum norm.Recently, Talagrand [Israel J. Math.44 (1983), 317–321] constructed a Banach space E having the Dunford-Pettis property such that C([0, 1], E) fails to have the Dunford-Pettis property. So he answered negatively a question which was posed some years ago.We prove in this paper that for a large class of compacts K (the scattered compacts), C(K, E) has either the Dunford-Pettis property, or the reciprocal Dunford-Pettis property, or the Dieudonné property, or property V if and only if E has the same property.Also some properties of the operators defined on C(K, E) are studied.

Representation theorems for additive functional have been obtained in [2, 4; 6-8; 10-13]. Our aim in this paper is to study the representation of additive operators.Let S be a compact Hausdorff space and let C(S) be the space of real-valued continuous functions defined on S. Let X be an arbitrary Banach space and let T be an additive operator (see § 2) mapping C(S) into X. We will show (see Lemma 3.4) that additive operators may be represented in terms of a family of “measures” {μh} which take their values in X**. If X is weakly sequentially complete, then {μh} can be shown to take their values in X and are vector-valued measures (i.e., countably additive in the norm) (see Lemma 3.7). And, if X* is separable in the weak-* topology, T may be represented in terms of a kernel representation satisfying the Carathéordory conditions (see [9; 11; §4]):

In this paper we give a closer analysis of the elementary properties of the Banach spaces C(K), where K is a totally disconnected, compact Hausdorff space, in terms of the Boolean algebra B(K) of clopen subsets of K. In particular we sharpen a result in [4] by showing that if B(K1) and B(K2) satisfy the same sentences with ≤ n alternations of quantifiers, then the same is true of C(K1) and C(K2). As a consequence we show that for each n there exist C(K) spaces which are elementarily equivalent for sentences with ≤ n quantifier alternations, but which are not elementary equivalent in the full sense. Thus the elementary properties of Banach spaces cannot be determined by looking at sentences with a bounded number of quantifier alternations.The notion of elementary equivalence for Banach spaces which is studied here was introduced by the second author [4] and is expressed using the language of positive bounded formulas in a first-order language for Banach spaces. As was shown in [4], two Banach spaces are elementarily equivalent in this sense if and only if they have isometrically isomorphic Banach space ultrapowers (or, equivalently, isometrically isomorphic nonstandard hulls.)We consider Banach spaces over the field of real numbers. If X is such a space, Bx will denote the closed unit ball of X, Bx = {x ϵ X∣ ∣∣x∣∣ ≤ 1}. Given a compact Hausdorff space K, we let C(K) denote the Banach space of all continuous real-valued functions on K, under the supremum norm. We will especially be concerned with such spaces when K is a totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space. In that case B(K) will denote the Boolean algebra of all clopen subsets of K. We adopt the standard notation from model theory and Banach space theory.

Let K be a compact Hausdorff space and E, F Banach spaces. We denote by C(K, E) the Banach space of all continuous. E-valued functions defined on K, with the supremum norm. It is well known ([6], [7]) that every operator (= bounded linear operator) T from C(K, E) to F has a finitely additive representing measure m of bounded semi-variation, defined on the Borel σ-field Σ of K and with values in L(E, F″) (the space of all operators from E into the second dual of F), in such a way thatwhere the integral is considered in Dinculeanu's sense.

The purpose of this paper is to characterize the Orlicz vector-valued function spaces containing a copy or a complemented copy of l1. Pisier proved in [13] that if a Banach space E contains no copy of l1, then the space Lp(S, Σ, μ, E) does not contain it either, for 1 < p < ∞. We extend this result to the case of Orlicz vector valued function spaces, by reducing the problem to the situation considered by Pisier. Next, we pass to study the problem of embedding l1 as a complemented subspace of LΦ(E). We obtain a complete characterization when E is a Banach lattice and only partial results in case of a general Banach space. We use here in a crucial way a result of E. Saab and P. Saab concerning the embedding of l1 as a complemented subspace of C(K, E), the Banach space of all the E-valued continuous functions on the compact Hausdorff space K (see [14]). Finally, we use these results to characterize several classes of Banach spaces for which LΦ(E) has some Banach space properties, namely the reciprocal Dunford-Pettis property and Pelczyński's V property.

Let K be a compact Hausdorff space, and let C(K) be the corresponding Banach space of continuous functions on K. It is well-known that every 1-summing operator S:C(K)→l2 is also nuclear, and therefore factors S = S1S2, with S1:l2→l2 a Hilbert–Schmidt operator and S1:C(K)→l2 a bounded operator. It is easily seen that this latter property is preserved when C(K) is replaced by any quotient, and that a Banach space X enjoys this property if and only if its second dual, X**, does. This led A. Pełczyński [15] to ask if the second dual of a Banach space X must be isomorphic to a quotient of a C(K)-space if X has the property that every 1-summing operator X-→l2 factors through a Hilbert-Schmidt operator. In this paper, we shall first of all reformulate the question in an appropriate manner and then show that counter-examples are available among super-reflexive Tsirelson-like spaces as well as among quasi-reflexive Banach spaces.

Let S be a locally compact (not compact) Hausdorff space satisfying the second axiom of countability and let ℬ be the σ field of all Borel subsets of S and let A be the σ-field of all the subsets of S which, for each finite measure μ defined on (S, A), are in the completed σ field of ℬ relative to μ. We denote by C0 the Banach space of continuous functions vanishing at infinity with the uniform norm and Bk the space of bounded A-measurable functions with compact support in S.

LetKbe a compact Hausdorff space andC(K)the Banach space of all real-valued continuous functions onK, with the sup-norm. Types overC(K)(in the sense of Krivine and Maurey) can be uniquely represented by pairs(ℓ,u)of bounded real-valued functions onK, whereℓis lower semicontinuous,uis upper semicontinuous,ℓ≤u, andℓ(x)=u(x)for all isolated pointsxofK. A condition that characterizes the pairs(ℓ,u)that represent double-dual types overC(K)is given.

For a locally compact Hausdorff space K and a Banach space X, let C0K,X be the Banach space of all X-valued continuous functions defined on K, which vanish at infinite provided with the sup norm. If X is ℝ, we denote C0K,X as C0K. If AK be an extremely regular subspace of C0K and T:AK⟶C0S,X is an into isomorphism, what can be said about the set-theoretical or topological properties of K and S? Answering the question, we will prove that if X contains no copy of c0, then the cardinality of K is less than that of S. Moreover, if TT−1<3 and AK is also a subalgebra of C0K, the cardinality of the αth derivative of K is less than that of the αth derivative of S, for each ordinal α. Finally, if λX>1 and TT−1<λX, then K is a continuous image of a subspace of S. Here, λX is the geometrical parameter introduced by Jarosz in 1989: λX=infmaxx+λy:λ=1:x=y=1. As a consequence, we improve classical results about into isomorphisms from extremely regular subspaces already obtained by Cengiz.

SynopsisIf X is a compact Hausdorff space and E a dual Banach space, let C(X, Eσ*) denote the Banach space of continuous functions F from X to E when the latter space is provided with its weak * topology, normed by . It is shown that if X and Y are extremally disconnected compact Hausdorff spaces and E is a uniformly convex Banach space, then the existence of an isometry between C(X, Eσ*) and C(Y, Eσ*) implies that X and Y are homeomorphic.
