Sur les suites presque echangeables dans \(L^ q\), \(1\leq q<2\). (On almost exchangeable subsequences in \(L^ q\), \(1\leq q<2)\) (Q579583)

Let \(1\leq q<p<2\). A type on \(L_ q=L_ q[0,1]\) is a function \(\tau:L_ q\to {\mathbb{R}}_+\) such that there exists a sequence \((Y_ n)_{n\in N}\) in \(L_ q\) satisfying: \(\forall X\in L_ q\), \(\tau (X)=\lim_{n\to \infty}\| X+Y_ n\|_ q\). Define by \((\tau_ 1*\tau_ 2)(X)=\lim_{n\to \infty} \lim_{m\to \infty}\| X+Y^ 1_ n+Y^ 2_ m\|_ q\) the convolution of two types on \(L_ q\) and by \((\lambda \tau)(X)=\lim_{n\to \infty}\| X+\lambda Y_ n\|_ q\) the product with \(\lambda\in {\mathbb{R}}\). The 1-conic class generated by \(\tau\) is the set: \(K_ 1(\tau)=\{\alpha_ 1\tau *...*\alpha_ n\tau | n\in N\), \((\alpha_ 1,...,\alpha_ n)\in {\mathbb{R}}^ n\}\cap \{\sigma | \sigma (0)\leq 1\}.\) The author constructs a bounded sequence \((X_ n)_{n\in N}\) in \(L_ q\) which defines a type \(\tau\) on \(L_ q\) such that (i) \((X_ n)_{n\in N}\) is equivalent to the unit vector basis of \(\ell_ p;\) (ii) The 1-conic class \(K_ 1(\tau)\) is not relatively compact in the topology of uniform convergence on bounded sets of \(L_ q.\) (iii) \((X_ n)_{n\in N}\) has no almost exchangeable subsequence after any change of the density on [0,1]. It is an open problem if this sequence has an almost symmetric subsequence.
