Singular twisted sums generated by complex interpolation

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We present new methods to obtain singular twisted sums XoplusOmegaX (i.e., exact sequences 0oXoXoplusOmegaXoXo0 in which the quotient map is strictly singular), in which X is the interpolation space arising from a complex interpolation scheme and Omega is the induced centralizer. Although our methods are quite general, in our applications we are mainly concerned with the choice of X as either a Hilbert space, or Ferenczi's uniformly convex Hereditarily Indecomposable space. In the first case, we construct new singular twisted Hilbert spaces, including the only known example so far: the Kalton-Peck space Z2. In the second case we obtain the first example of an H.I. twisted sum of an H.I. space. We then use Rochberg's description of iterated twisted sums to show that there is a sequence mathcalFn of H.I. spaces so that mathcalFm+n is a singular twisted sum of mathcalFm and mathcalFn, while for l>n the direct sum mathcalFnoplusmathcalFl+m is a nontrivial twisted sum of mathcalFl and mathcalFm+n. We also introduce and study the notion of disjoint singular twisted sum of K"othe function spaces and construct several examples involving reflexive p-convex K"othe function spaces, which include the function version of the Kalton-Peck space Z2.
