The form of locally defined operators in waterman spaces

A representation formula for locally defined operators acting between Banach spaces of continuous functions of bounded variation in the Waterman sense is presented. Moreover, the Nemytskij composition operators will be investigated and some consequences for locally bounded as well as uniformly bounded local operators will be given.

Semi-smooth Points in Some Classical Function Spaces

The investigations of the smooth points in the spaces of continuous function were started by Banach in 1932 considering function space $$\mathcal {C}(\Omega )$$ C ( Ω ) . Singer and Sundaresan extended the result of Banach to the space of vector valued continuous functions $$\mathcal {C}(\mathcal {T},E)$$ C ( T , E ) , where $$\mathcal {T}$$ T is a compact metric space. The aim of this paper is to present a description of semi-smooth points in spaces of continuous functions $$\mathcal {C}_0(\mathcal {T},E)$$ C 0 ( T , E ) (instead of smooth points). Moreover, we also find necessary and sufficient condition for semi-smoothness in the general case.

Operators in pre-Riesz spaces: moduli and homomorphisms

We focus on two topics that are related to moduli of elements in partially ordered vector spaces. First, we relate operators that preserve moduli to generalized notions of lattice homomorphisms, such as Riesz homomorphisms, Riesz* homomorphisms, and positive disjointness preserving operators. We also consider complete Riesz homomorphisms, which generalize order continuous lattice homomorphisms. Second, we characterize elements with a modulus by means of disjoint elements and apply this result to obtain moduli of functionals and operators in various settings. On spaces of continuous functions, we identify those differences of Riesz* homomorphisms that have a modulus. Many of our results for pre-Riesz spaces of continuous functions lead to results on order unit spaces, where the functional representation is used.

SUBPROJECTIVITY OF PROJECTIVE TENSOR PRODUCTS OF BANACH SPACES OF CONTINUOUS FUNCTIONS

Galego and Samuel showed that if K, L are metrizable, compact, Hausdorff spaces, then $C(K)\widehat{\otimes}_\pi C(L)$ is c0-saturated if and only if it is subprojective if and only if K and L are both scattered. We remove the hypothesis of metrizability from their result and extend it from the case of the twofold projective tensor product to the general n-fold projective tensor product to show that for any $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and compact, Hausdorff spaces K1, …, K n , $\widehat{\otimes}_{\pi, i=1}^n C(K_i)$ is c0-saturated if and only if it is subprojective if and only if each K i is scattered.
