The Dunford--Pettis and the Kadec--Klee properties on tensor products of JB*-triples (Q2574932)

A Banach space \(X\) satisfies the \textit{Dunford--Pettis property} (DPP) if every weakly compact operator from \(X\) to another Banach space is completely continuous. The authors prove that the projective tensor product of two JB\(^*\)-triples has the DPP if and only if both JB\(^*\)-triples have the property and do not contain a copy of \(l_1\). Actually, this result is a particularization of one that they prove for Banach spaces.
