Order properties of the set of Banach limits (Q2353054): Difference between revisions

Let \(\mathcal{B}\) be the set of all Banach limits, i.e., all bounded linear functionals on \(\ell^{\infty}\) which are positive, shift-invariant and map the constant sequence \((1,1,\dots)\) to \(1\). Denote by \(\sigma_m\) the \(m\)-th dilation operator on \(\ell^{\infty}\) defined by \[ \sigma_m(x_1,x_2,\dots):=(\underbrace{x_1,x_1,\dots,x_1}_m,\underbrace{x_2,x_2,\dots,x_2}_m,\dots). \] The authors announce some results on the structure of the set \(\text{ext}(\mathcal{B})\) of extreme points of \(\mathcal{B}\) and of the sets \(\mathcal{B}(\sigma_m):=\{B\in \mathcal{B}:B\circ\sigma_m=B\}\).
