Banach Spaces of Bounded Szlenk Index II

Abstract

For every α<ω1\alpha<\omega_1 we establish the existence of a separable Banach space whose Szlenk index is ωαω+1\omega^{\alpha\omega+1} and which is universal for all separable Banach spaces whose Szlenk-index does not exceed ωαω\omega^{\alpha\omega}. In order to prove that result we provide an intrinsic characterization of which Banach spaces embed into a space admitting an FDD with upper estimates.
