Banach spaces with the 2 2 -summing property Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • A Banach space X has the 2-summing property if the norm of every linear operator from A1 to a Hubert space is equal to the 2-summing norm of the operator. Up to a point, the theory of spaces which have this property is independent of the scalar field: the property is self-dual and any space with the property is a finite dimensional space of maximal distance to the Hubert space of the same dimension. In the case of real scalars only the real line and real l2∞have the 2-summing property. In the complex case there are more examples; e.g., all subspaces of complex l3∞and their duals. © 1995 American Mathematical Society.
