An alternate description of the Szlenk index with applications

Functional Analysis 2015-07-09 v1

Abstract

We discuss an alternate method for computing the Szlenk index of an arbitrary ww^* compact subset of the dual of a Banach space. We discuss consequences of this method as well as offer simple, alternative proofs of a number of results already found in the literature.
