Among other things, it is shown that there exist Banach spaces $Z$ and $W$ such that $Z^{**}$ and $W$ have bases, and for every $p\in[1,2)$ there is an operator $T:W\to Z$ that is not $p$-nuclear but $T^{**}$ is $p$-nuclear.

We investigate an extension of Schauder's theorem by studying the relationship between various $s$-numbers of an operator $T$ and its adjoint $T^*$. We have three main results. First, we present a new proof that the approximation number of…

A bounded linear operator is said to be nice if its adjoint preserves extreme points of the dual unit ball. Motivated by a description due to Labuschagne and Mascioni \cite{LM} of such maps for the space of compact operators on a Hilbert…

Let $\Phi$ be a real valued function of one real variable, let $L$ denote an elliptic second order formally self-adjoint differential operator with bounded measurable coefficients, and let $P$ stand for the Poisson operator for $L$. A…

In this short note, we show that one cannot differentiate between reciprocal Dunford--Pettis sets and V$^*$-sets in a Banach lattice. That is, for a bounded subset $K$ of a Banach lattice $E$, $K$ is a V$^*$-set if and only if $K$ is a…

Let $A:D(A)\subseteq\H\to\H$ be an injective self-adjoint operator and let $\tau:D(A)\to\X$, X a Banach space, be a surjective linear map such that $\|\tau\phi\|_\X\le c \|A\phi\|_\H$. Supposing that \text{\rm Range}$ (\tau')\cap\H'…

We study order-to-weak continuous operators from an ordered Banach space to a normed space. It is proved that under rather mild conditions every order-to-weak continuous operator is bounded.

Schauder's theorem asserts that a bounded linear operator between Banach spaces is compact if ad only if its adjoint is. We give a new proof of this result, which is both short and completely elementary in the sense that it does not depend…

We prove that, in a large class of Banach lattices, the fixed space of each commuting family of positive linear contractions is a lattice subspace. As consequences, new cyclicity results for the peripheral point spectra of positive…

Let $E_1, \ldots, E_m$ be (non necessarily Archimedean) Riesz spaces, let $F$ be an Archimedean Riesz space and let $A \colon E_1 \times \cdots \times E_m \to F$ be a regular disjointness preserving $m$-linear operator. We prove that all…

We introduce and study the enveloping norms of regularly P-operators, where P is an "almost" version of limited, Grothendieck, and of Dunford--Pettis operators in Banach lattices. Several further topics related to these operators are also…

We study orthogonally additive operators between Riesz spaces without the Dedekind completeness assumption on the range space. Our first result gives necessary and sufficient conditions on a pair of Riesz spaces $(E,F)$ for which every…

This paper is a sequel to our work in \cite{Das-Mundayadan}. Here, we primarily study the dynamics of the adjoint of a weighted forward shift operator $F_w$ on the analytic function space $\ell^p_{a,b}$ having a normalized Schauder basis of…

In this paper we show that a result of Gross and Kuelbs, used to study Gaussian measures on Banach spaces, makes it possible to construct an adjoint for operators on separable Banach spaces. This result is used to extend well known theorems…

We investigate whether almost weak stability of an operator $T$ on a Banach space $X$ implies its almost weak polynomial stability. We show, using a modified version of the van der Corput Lemma that if $X$ is a Hilbert space and $T$ a…

Our purpose in this note is to investigate the order properties of positive operators from a locally convex space into its conjugate dual. We introduce a natural generalization of the Busch-Gudder strength function and we prove Kadison's…

Let $1\le p<\infty$. A symmetric space $X$ on $[0,1]$ is said to be $p$-disjointly homogeneous (resp. restricted $p$-disjointly homogeneous) if every sequence of normalized pairwise disjoint functions from $X$ (resp. characteristic…

We show that a densely defined closable operator $A$ such that the resolvent set of $A^2$ is not empty is necessarily closed. This result is then extended to the case of a polynomial $p(A)$. We also generalize a recent result by…

We study best approximations to compact operators between Banach spaces and Hilbert spaces, from the point of view of Birkhoff-James orthogonality and semi-inner-products. As an application of the present study, some distance formulae are…

We introduce the so-called Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as property for positive functionals, a particular case of the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as property for positive operators. First we show a version of the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as theorem for…
