G_-embeddings in Hilbert space

From MaRDI portal
Publication:1058705





It is shown that a separable Banach space X has the point of weak to norm continuity property (resp. the Radon-Nikodym property) if and only if there exists a compact \(G_{\delta}\)-embedding (resp. an \(H_{\delta}\)- embedding) from X into \(\ell_ 2\). This solves several questions of \textit{J. Bourgain} and \textit{H. P. Rosenthal} [J. Funct. Anal. 52, 149-188 (1983; Zbl 0541.46020)]. It is also shown that every non-relatively compact sequence in a Banach space with property (PC) has a difference subsequence which is a boundedly complete basic sequence. This solves a question of Pelczynski and extends some results of \textit{W. B. Johnson} and \textit{H. P. Rosenthal} [Stud. Math. 43, 77-92 (1972; Zbl 0213.393)]. Various related questions asked in the above Bourgain-Rosenthal reference and by \textit{G. A. Edgar} and \textit{R. F. Wheeler} [Pac. J. Math. 115, 317- 350 (1984; Zbl 0506.46007)] and \textit{N. Ghoussoub} and \textit{H. P. Rosenthal} [Math. Ann. 264, 321-332 (1983; Zbl 0511.46017)] are also settled.
