The pseudo-Daugavet property for narrow projections in Lorentz spaces

Publication date 15 February 2004

Abstract: Let

X

be a rearrangement-invariant space. An operator

T : X o X

is called narrow if for each measurable set

A

and each

e p s i l o n > 0

there exists

x i n X

with

x^{2} = c h i_{A}, i n t x d m u = 0

and

| T x | < e p s i l o n

. In particular all compact operators are narrow. We prove that if

X

is a Lorentz function space

L_{w, p}

on [0,1] with

p > 2

, then there exists a constant

k_{X} > 1

so that for every narrow projection

P

on

L_{w, p}

| I d - P | g e q k_{X} .

This generalizes earlier results on

L_{p}

and partially answers a question of E. M. Semenov. Moreover we prove that every rearrangement-invariant function space

X

with an absolutely continuous norm contains a complemented subspace isomorphic to

X

which is the range of a narrow projection and a non-narrow projection, which gives a negative answer to a question of A.Plichko and M.Popov.
