Ball generated property of direct sums of Banach space

Abstract: A Banach space

X

is said to have the ball generated property (BGP) if every closed, bounded, convex subset of

X

can be written as an intersection of finite unions of closed balls. In 2002 S. Basu proved that the BGP is stable under (infinite)

c_{0}

- and

e l l^{p}

-sums for

1 < p < i n f t y

. We will show here that for any absolute, normalised norm

| c d o t |_{E}

on

m a t h b b R^{2}

satisfying a certain smoothness condition the direct sum

X o p l u s_{E} Y

of two Banach spaces

X

and

Y

with respect to

| c d o t |_{E}

enjoys the BGP whenever

X

and

Y

have the BGP.
