On Grassmannians associated with JB\(^*\)-triples (Q5932132)

Let \(E\) be a \(JB^*\)-triple and denote by \({\mathbf G}={\mathbf G}(E)\) the Grassmannian of the complex Banach space \(E\), that is, the complex Banach-manifold of the closed subspaces of \(E\) which are topological direct summands. The main result of the paper states that the space \(\mathbf P\) of all complemented principal inner ideals \(I\) of \(E\) (equivalently, \(I\) is generated by a tripotent) is a closed submanifold of \(\mathbf G\). Moreover, every connected component \(M\) of \(\mathbf P\) is a symmetric complex Banach manifold.
