Equivalence of D and D' properties in Banach spaces

Abstract

This work explores the equivalence of two sequential properties, DD and DD', for dual Banach spaces under the weak* topology. Property DD ensures that any totally scalarly measurable function is also scalarly measurable, while property DD' states that every weakly* sequentially closed subspace of XX^* is weakly* closed. These properties, which are central to the study of the interplay between topology and measurability in Banach spaces, was left as an open question. By examining the topological and measurable structures induced by the Baire σ\sigma-algebra, we prove that properties DD and DD' are indeed equivalent. The proof utilizes the relationship between total sets, weak* closures, and scalar measurability, extending previous results on sequential properties of dual Banach spaces. Additionally, we revisit the failure of property DD in nonseparable Banach spaces with MM-basic 1+\ell_1^+-systems, providing a topological reinterpretation of this phenomenon. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the weak* topology and measurable mappings in Banach space theory.
