Abstract

This note is a follow-up to \cite{bt}. We focus on conditions under which a normed lattice XX is majorizing in its norm completion. We show that \cite[Question 8.17]{bt} -- namely, whether this holds whenever every norm-null sequence in XX has an order-bounded subsequence -- is equivalent to the question whether every P-ideal on N\N is meager. This is a longstanding open problem in Set Theory, and it has a negative answer under various set-theoretical assumptions, in particular under the Continuum Hypothesis. We also present several equivalent conditions to both of the two aforementioned properties, and give a simple proof of a well-known Riesz-Fischer-style characterization of completeness of a normed lattice.
