AbstractLet A be a C*-algebra and E be a Banach space with the Radon-Nikodym property. We prove that if j is an embedding of E into an injective Banach space then for every absolutely summing operator T : A → E, the composition j ○ T factors through a diagonal operator from l2 into l1. In particular, T factors through a Banach space with the Schur property. Similarly, we prove that for 2 < p < ∞, any absolutely summing operator from A into E factors through a diagonal operator from lp into l2.

AbstractLet X be a complex Banach space, G a compact abelian metrizable group and Λ a subset of Ĝ, the dual group of G. If X has the Radon-Nikodym property and is separable then has the Radon-Nikodym property. One consequence of this is that CΛ(G, X) has the Radon-Nikodym property whenever X has the Radon-Nikodym property and the Schur property and Λ is a Rosenthal set. A partial stability property for products of Rosenthal sets is also obtained.

SynopsisIn this paper we determine the asymptotic behaviour of entropy numbers of embedding maps between Besov sequence spaces and Besov function spaces. The results extend those of M. Š. Birman, M. Z. Solomjak and H. Triebel originally formulated in the language of ε-entropy. It turns out that the characterization of embedding maps between Besov spaces by entropy numbers can be reduced to the characterization of certain diagonal operators by their entropy numbers.Finally, the entropy numbers are applied to the study of eigenvalues of operators acting on a Banach space which admit a factorization through embedding maps between Besov spaces.The statements of this paper are obtained by results recently proved elsewhere by the author.

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an operator on the spaceC (T,X)to be(r,p)-absolutely summing. Also we prove that the injective tensor product of an integral operator and an(r,p)-absolutely summing operator is an(r,p)-absolutely summing operator.

AbstractPalmer has shown that those hermitians in the weak-star operator closure of a commutative C*-algebra represented on a dual Banach space X that are known to commute with the initial C*-algebra form the real part of a weakly closed C*-algebra on X. Relying on a result of Murphy, it is shown in this paper that this last proviso may be dropped, and that the weak-star closure is even a W*-algebra.When the dual Banach space X is separable, one can prove a similar result for C*-equivalent algebras, via a ‘separable patch’ completion theorem for Boolean algebras of projections on such spaces.

Abstract Being expected as a Banach space substitute of the orthogonal projections on Hilbert spaces, generalized n-circular projections also extend the notion of generalized bicontractive projections on JB*-triples. In this paper, we study some geometric properties of JB*-triples related to them. In particular, we provide some structure theorems of generalized n-circular projections on an often mentioned special case of JB*-triples, i.e., Hilbert C*-modules over abelian C*-algebras C0(Ω).

Abstract Let X be a Banach space and E be a perfect Banach function space over a finite measure space $$(\Omega ,\Sigma ,\lambda )$$ ( Ω , Σ , λ ) such that $$L^\infty \subset E\subset L^1$$ L ∞ ⊂ E ⊂ L 1 . Let $$E'$$ E ′ denote the Köthe dual of E and $$\tau (E,E')$$ τ ( E , E ′ ) stand for the natural Mackey topology on E. It is shown that every nuclear operator $$T:E\rightarrow X$$ T : E → X between the locally convex space $$(E,\tau (E,E'))$$ ( E , τ ( E , E ′ ) ) and a Banach space X is Bochner representable. In particular, we obtain that a linear operator $$T:L^\infty \rightarrow X$$ T : L ∞ → X between the locally convex space $$(L^\infty ,\tau (L^\infty ,L^1))$$ ( L ∞ , τ ( L ∞ , L 1 ) ) and a Banach space X is nuclear if and only if its representing measure $$m_T:\Sigma \rightarrow X$$ m T : Σ → X has the Radon-Nikodym property and $$|m_T|(\Omega )=\Vert T\Vert _{nuc}$$ | m T | ( Ω ) = ‖ T ‖ nuc (= the nuclear norm of T). As an application, it is shown that some natural kernel operators on $$L^\infty $$ L ∞ are nuclear. Moreover, it is shown that every nuclear operator $$T:L^\infty \rightarrow X$$ T : L ∞ → X admits a factorization through some Orlicz space $$L^\varphi $$ L φ , that is, $$T=S\circ i_\infty $$ T = S ∘ i ∞ , where $$S:L^\varphi \rightarrow X$$ S : L φ → X is a Bochner representable and compact operator and $$i_\infty :L^\infty \rightarrow L^\varphi $$ i ∞ : L ∞ → L φ is the inclusion map.

AbstractLet E be a Banach space whose dual E* has the approximation property, and let m be an index. We show that E* has the Radon-Nikodým property if and only if every m-homogeneous integral polynomial from E into any Banach space is nuclear. We also obtain factorization and composition results for nuclear polynomials.

Let Ω: be a compact Hausdorff space, let E be a Banach space, and let C(Ω, E) stand for the Banach space of continuous E-valued functions on Ω under supnorm. It is well known [3, p. 182] that if F is a Banach space then any bounded linear operator T:C(Ω, E)→ F has a finitely additive vector measure G defined on the σ-field of Borel subsets of Ω with values in the space ℒ(E, F**) of bounded linear operators from E to the second dual F** of F. The measure G is said to represent T. The purpose of this note is to study the interplay between certain properties of the operator T and properties of the representing measure G. Precisely, one of our goals is to study when one can characterize nuclear operators in terms of their representing measures. This is of course motivated by a well-known theorem of L. Schwartz [5] (see also [3, p. 173]) concerning nuclear operators on spaces C(Ω) of continuous scalar-valued functions. The study of nuclear operators on spaces C(Ω, E) of continuous vector-valued functions was initiated in [1], where the author extended Schwartz's result in case E* has the Radon-Nikodym property. In this paper, we will show that the condition on E* to have the Radon-Nikodym property is necessary to have a Schwartz's type theorem. This leads to a new characterization of dual spaces E* with the Radon-Nikodym property. In [2], it was shown that if T:C(Ω, E)→ F is nuclear than its representing measure G takes its values in the space (E, F) of nuclear operators from E to F. One of the results of this paper is that if T:C(Ω, E)→ F is nuclear then its representing measure G is countably additive and of bounded variation as a vector measure taking its values in (E, F) equipped with the nuclear norm. Finally, we show by easy examples that the above mentioned conditions on the representing measure G do not characterize nuclear operators on C(Ω, E) spaces, and we also look at cases where nuclear operators are indeed characterized by the above two conditions. For all undefined notions and terminologies, we refer the reader to [3].

Abstract We give conditions on Gromov-Hausdorff convergent inverse systems of metric measure graphs which imply that the measured Gromov-Hausdorff limit (equivalently, the inverse limit) is a PI space i.e., it satisfies a doubling condition and a Poincaré inequality in the sense of Heinonen-Koskela [12]. The Poincaré inequality is actually of type (1, 1). We also give a systematic construction of examples for which our conditions are satisfied. Included are known examples of PI spaces, such as Laakso spaces, and a large class of new examples. As follows easily from [4], generically our examples have the property that they do not bilipschitz embed in any Banach space with Radon-Nikodym property. For Laakso spaces, thiswas noted in [4]. However according to [7] these spaces admit a bilipschitz embedding in L1. For Laakso spaces, this was announced in [5].
