Characterization of Banach lattices in terms of quasi-interior points (Q2448827): Difference between revisions

Summary: In terms of quasi-interior points, criteria that a Banach lattice \(E\) has order continuous norm or is an \(AM\)-space with a unit are given. For example, if \(E\) is Dedekind complete and has a weak order unit, then \(E\) has order continuous norm if and only if the set of quasi-interior points of \(E\) coincides with the set of weak order units of \(E\); a Banach lattice \(E\) is an \(AM\)-space with a unit \(x\) if and only if the set of all quasi-interior points of \(E\) coincides with the set \(\{z:x\leq\lambda z \text{ for some }\lambda > 0\}\). Analogous questions are considered for the case of an ordered Banach space \(Z\) with a cone \(K\). Moreover, it is shown that every nonzero point of a cone \(K\neq\{0\}\) is quasi-interior if and only if \(\mathrm{dim}Z=1\). We also study various \(\mathcal D\)-properties of a cone \(K\); in particular, the conditions for which the relation \(a\wedge b=0\) with \(a>0\) implies that \(b\) is not a quasi-interior point are considered.
