The order continuity of the regular norm on regular operator spaces (Q2016699)

Summary: We present here some sufficient conditions for the regular norm on \(\mathcal L^r(E,F)\) to be order continuous, and for \((\mathcal L^r(E,F),\|\cdot\|_r)\) to be a KB-space. In particular, we deduce a characterization of the order continuity of the regular norm using L- and M-weak compactness of regular operators. Also, we characterize when the space \(\mathcal L^r(E,F)\) is an \(L^p\)-space and is lattice isomorphic to an \(L^p\)-space for \(1<p<\infty\). Some related results are also obtained.
