The notions of column and row operator space were extended by A. Lambert from Hilbert spaces to general Banach spaces. In this paper, we use column and row spaces over quotients of subspaces of general Lp-spaces to equip several Banach algebras occurring naturally in abstract harmonic analysis with canonical, yet not obvious operator space structures that turn them into completely bounded Banac...

This paper discusses under what conditions two disjoint convex subsets of a linear topological space can be separated by a continuous linear functional. The equivalence of several forms of the Hahn-Banach theorem is proven. The separation problem is considered in linear topological spaces, locally convex linear topological spaces, Banach spaces, and finally finite dimensional Banach spaces. A n...

The James–Schreier spaces Vp, where 1 6 p < ∞, were recently introduced by Bird and Laustsen [5] as an amalgamation of James’ quasi-reflexive Banach space on the one hand and Schreier’s Banach space giving a counterexample to the Banach–Saks property on the other. The purpose of this note is to answer some questions left open in [5]. Specifically, we prove that (i) the standard Schauder basis f...

We prove that for all 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞, p 6= 2, the L spaces associated to two von Neumann algebras M, N are isometrically isomorphic if and only if M and N are Jordan *-isomorphic. This follows from a noncommutative L Banach-Stone theorem: a specific decomposition for surjective isometries of noncommutative L spaces.

Let X be a closed subspace of a Banach space W and let F be the operator ideal of finite-rank operators. If α is a tensor norm, A is a Banach operator ideal, and λ > 0, then we call the condition “‖S‖α ≤ λ‖S‖A(X,W ) for all S ∈ F(X,X)” an inner inequality and the condition “‖T‖α ≤ λ‖T‖A(Y,W ) for all Banach spaces Y and for all T ∈ F(Y,X)” an outer inequality. We describe cases when outer inequ...

In [K.-I. Mitani and K.-S. Saito, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 327 (2007), 898–907] we characterized the strict convexity, uniform convexity and uniform non-squareness of Banach spaces using ψ-direct sums of two Banach spaces, where ψ is a continuous convex function with some appropriate conditions on [0, 1]. In this paper, we characterize the Bn-convexity and Jn-convexity of Banach spaces using ψ-dire...

We prove that a homogeneous Banach space B on the unit circle T can be embedded as a closed subspace of a dual space ΞB contained in the space of bounded Borel measures on T in such a way that the map B → ΞB defines a bijective correspondence between the class of homogeneous Banach spaces on T and the class of prehomogeneous Banach spaces on T. We apply our results to show that the algebra of a...

The present thesis deals with computable functional analysis and in this context, especially, with compact operators on computable Banach spaces. For this purpose, the representation based approach to computable analysis (TTE) is used. In the first part, computable Banach spaces with computable Schauder bases are introduced and two representations each are defined for the dual space of a comput...

For a Banach space X, let B(X) denote the Banach algebra of all continuous linear operators on X. First, we study the lattice of closed ideals in B(Jp), where 1 < p < ∞ and Jp is the pth James space. Our main result is that the ideal of weakly compact operators is the unique maximal ideal in B(Jp). Applications of this result include the following. (i) The Brown–McCoy radical of B(X), which by ...
