Properties of \(Q\)-reflexive Banach spaces (Q5956505)

Banach spaces which are \(Q\)-reflexive were introduced by \textit{R. M. Aron} and \textit{S. Dineen} [Rocky Mt. J. Math. 27, No. 4, 1009-1025 (1997; Zbl 0916.46011)] to obtain a polynomial representation of the bidual of the space of all \(n\)-homogeneous continuous polynomials on a Banach space \(E\), i.e., \(\mathcal P(^nE)''= \mathcal P(^nE'').\) This paper is a study of the structural and polynomial properties of these spaces. The following properties are discussed: containment of \(\ell_p,\) Dunford-Pettis property and reflexivity.
