Abstract

The Gurari\u{\i} space is the unique separable Banach space G\mathbb{G} which is of almost universal disposition for finite-dimensional Banach spaces, which means that for every ε>0\varepsilon>0, for all finite-dimensional normed spaces EFE \subseteq F, for every isometric embedding e ⁣:EG{e}\colon{E}\to{\mathbb{G}} there exists an ε\varepsilon-isometric embedding f ⁣:FG{f}\colon{F}\to{\mathbb{G}} such that fE=ef \restriction E = e. We show that GN\mathbb{G}^{\mathbb{N}} with a special sequence of semi-norms is of almost universal disposition for finite-dimensional graded Fr\'echet spaces. The construction relies heavily on the universal operator on the Gurari\u{\i} space, recently constructed by Garbuli\'nska-Wegrzyn and the third author. This yields in particular that GN\mathbb{G}^{\mathbb{N}} is universal in the class of all separable Fr\'echet spaces.
