Abstract: We show that c0 is not a projective Banach lattice, answering a question of B. de Pagter and A. Wickstead. On the other hand, we show that c0 is complemented in the free Banach lattice generated by itself (seen as a Banach space). As a consequence, the free Banach lattice generated by c0 is not projective.


A Banach lattice \(E\) is projective if whenever \(X\) is a Banach lattice, \(J\) a closed ideal in \(X\) and \(Q : X \to X/J\) the quotient map, for every Banach lattice homomorphism \(T : E\to X/J\) and \(\varepsilon > 0\), there is another Banach lattice homomorphism \(\hat T : E \to X\) such that \(T = Q \circ \hat T\) and \(\|\hat T\|\leq (1+\varepsilon) \|T\|\). The authors prove that the Banach lattice \(c_0\) is not projective, answering negatively Questions 12.10 and 12.11 by \textit{B. de Pagter} and \textit{A. W. Wickstead} in [Proc. R. Soc. Edinb., Sect. A, Math. 145, No. 1, 105--143 (2015; Zbl 1325.46020)]. Moreover, they show that \(c_0\) can be isometrically embedded as a complemented subspace of the free Banach lattice generated by \(c_0\), denoted \(FBL[c_0]\). As a consequence, they also prove that \(FBL[c_0]\) is not projective.
