Shellable weakly compact subsets of C[0,1]

Abstract: We show that for every weakly compact subset

K

of

C [0, 1]

with finite Cantor-Bendixson rank, there is a reflexive Banach lattice

E

and an operator

T : E i g h t a r r o w C [0, 1]

such that

K s u b s e t e q T (B_{E})

. On the other hand, we exhibit an example of a weakly compact set of

C [0, 1]

homeomorphic to

o m e g a^{o} m e g a + 1

for which such

T

and

E

cannot exist. This answers a question of M. Talagrand in the 80's.
