On the class of \(b\)-weakly compact operators (Q2114849)

In this paper, by using the Banach-Saks sets the authors investigate the \(b\)-weakly compact operators. Firstly, they introduce some basic definitions and facts concerning Banach-Saks and \(b\)-order bounded sets. They prove that the notions of an \(L\)-weakly compact and a Banach-Saks set coincide for intervals. They present some characterizations of the \(b\)-weakly compact operators.The relationships between \(b\)-weakly compact and \(b-L\)-weakly compact operators are established here. They show that these two notions coincide for positive operators between two Banach lattices \(E\) and \(F\) such that \(F\) has an order continuous norm.
