Research Abstract |
Geometric structures of Banach and function spaces are investigated, especially in relation with the notions of Rademacher type and cotype. Also φ-direct sums of Banach spaces are investigated, which seem important as one can easily, construct a plenty of examples of Banach spaces with a non ι_ptype norm from a convex function φ. Major results are as follows. 1.On geometric structures and type, cotype : (1) We introduced the notions of strong (Rademacher) type and cotype, and characterized ρ-uniformly smooth, and q-uniformly convex spaces with these properties. The heredity of these properties to Lebesgue-Bochner spaces L_γ(X) was shown, as well. (2) We introduced strong random Clarkson inequality, and proved that this inequality holds in a Banach space if and only if the space is of strong type ρ, or equivalently, ρ-uniformly smooth. (Recall that random Clarkson inequality holds in a Banach space if and only if the space has type ρ ; Kato-Persson-Takahashi, Collect. Math. 51 (2000).) 2. On geometric structures and norm inequalities : (1) Hanner-type inequalities are often useful to treat properties described with the modulus of convexity of a Banach space. We considered Hanner-type inequalities, especially, those with a weight and their n element version, and characterized optimal 2-uniform convexity and uniform non-squareness, etc. with these inequalitites : (2) We introduced a Schaffer-type constant for a Banach space and showed a relation with uniform normal structure. 3. On φ-direct sums of Banach spaces : (1) We characterized the following properties of a φ-direct sum of Banach spaces : strict, uniform convexity, uniform non-squareness, uniform non Ι^n_1-ness, reflexivity, weak nearly uniform smoothness, smoothness, etc. (2) The James constant of an absolute norm on R2 was calculated for some cases, which gives a partial answer to a problem of Kato-Maligranda (JMAA 258 (2001)).
