The group of isometries of a Banach space and duality

Functional Analysis 2008-11-05 v1

Abstract

We construct an example of a real Banach space whose group of surjective isometries has no uniformly continuous one-parameter semigroups, but the group of surjective isometries of its dual contains infinitely many of them. Other examples concerning numerical index, hermitian operators and dissipative operators are also shown.
