Summability and estimates for polynomials and multilinear mappings (Q2270517)

Estimates for multilinear mappings have been studied by many authors. In this paper, the authors extend and generalize such estimations in two directions: On the one hand, estimates which are known for mappings on \(\ell_p\)-spaces are generalized to mappings on arbitrary Banach spaces. On the other hand, estimates which are known for \((1;1)\)-summing mappings are extended to \((q;1)\)-summing mappings. One of the main results is the following Theorem: If \(r>n\geq 2\) and \(E,E_1,\dots,E_n\) are Banach spaces, then \[ {\mathcal L}_{\text{as}(\frac{r}{r-n};r^\ast)}(E_1,\dots,E_n)={\mathcal L}(E_1,\dots,E_n) \] holds isometrically and \[ {\mathcal P}_{\text{as}(\frac{r}{r-n};r^\ast)}(^nE)={\mathcal P}(^nE)\text{ holds with } \| \cdot\| \leq \| \cdot\|_{\text{as}(\frac{r}{r-n};r^\ast)} \leq \frac{n^n}{n!}\| \cdot\|, \] where \(r^\ast :=\frac{r}{r-1}\). In the last section of this paper, the authors give a definition of strongly \((p;q)\)-summing \(n\)-linear mappings as a generalization of strongly \(p\)-summing multilinear mappings introduced by \textit{V.\,Dimant} [J.~Math.\ Anal.\ Appl.\ 278, No.\,1, 182--193 (2003; Zbl 1043.47018)]. The authors show that the space of strongly \((p;q)\)-summing \(n\)-linear mappings with values in the Banach space \(F\), \( {\mathcal L}_{\text{ss}(r;q)}(E_1,\ldots,E_n;F)\), is contained in the space of \((r;p^\ast)\)-summing mappings, \({\mathcal L}_{\text{as}(r;p^\ast)}(E_1,\dots,E_n;F)\), for arbitrary Banach spaces and \(p>n\), \(r\geq q \geq \frac {p}{p-n}\).
