Angelicity and the boundary problem
Let \((X,\| \|)\) be a Banach space. A subset \(B\) of \(S_{X^{\ast}}=\{f\in X^{\ast}: \| f\| =1\}\) is called a boundary if for any \(x\in X\), there exists \(f\in B\) such that \(f(x) = \| x\| \). Also, let \(t_p(B)\) denote the topology on \(X\) defined by pointwise convergence on \(B\). The boundary problem for \(X\) is as follows: Let \(A\) be a bounded and \(t_p(B) \) compact subset of \(X\). Is \(A\) weakly compact? The answer to the boundary problem is known to be positive if \(A\) is convex [\textit{S. Simons}, Pac. J. Math. 40, 703-708 (1972; Zbl 0237.46012)] or if \(B\) is equal to the set of extreme points of \(B_{X^{\ast}}\) [\textit{J. Bourgain} and \textit{M. Talagrand}, Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 80, 68-70 (1980; Zbl 0435.46016)]. In the present paper, it is shown that for the space \(C(K)\) of continuous functions on a compact space \(K\) with the sup norm, the boundary problem has a positive answer for any boundary \(B\subset S_{C(K)^{\ast}}\), and furthermore that the space \((C(K),t_p(B))\) is an angelic space in the sense of D. H. Fremlin.
