Onno van Gaans 111 iv Summary Many of the real vector spaces occurring in analysis have a natural norm or topology as well as a natural ordering. The relation between the norm or topology and the or­ dering usually fits in the theory of normed Riesz spaces, locally full partially ordered vector spaces, or related notions. Especially for normed Riesz spaces —and Ba- nach lattices in particular— a rich theory has been developed (see e.g. Aliprantis & Burkinshaw[2], Meyer-Nieberg[17], Schaefer[22], Vulikh[23]). For normed partially ordered vector spaces, the theory includes duality (see e.g. Davies[7], Ng[19]) and spaces of operators (see e.g. Wickstead[24]). There is also theory on ordered topolog­ ical spaces (see e.g. Kelley L· Namioka[14], Namioka[18], Peressini[20], Schaefer[21] and also Aliprantis L· Burkinshaw[l] and Fremlin[8]). It is not without interest to extend theory of normed Riesz spaces to the more general setting of partially ordered vector spaces. Not merely to cover a wider range of spaces, but also because such spaces appear naturally in the theory of normed Riesz spaces itself. Indeed, linear subspaces of normed Riesz spaces are not always Riesz spaces —every partially ordered vector space is in fact a linear subspace of a Riesz space— and, also, spaces of operators between normed Riesz spaces need not be Riesz spaces. The study of normed partially ordered vector spaces is not new and neither is the study of embedding them in Riesz spaces. What seems to be new in this text is the study of seminorms on partially ordered vector spaces by viewing these spaces as subspaces of Riesz spaces. Thus, special attention has been paid to restriction, extension, and isometrical embedding problems and new results have been obtained. The properties of a seminorm ρ on a partially ordered vector space E that play important roles from many points of view are what we call the Fremlin property {—y < x < У =* p(x) < p(y))j regularity (p(x) = inf{p(r/): — y < χ < y}), and closedness of E+. Part of their significance can be found in the literature, mainly concerning spaces of operators. This text provides a more systematic treatment, dealing also with extension, isometrical embedding, norm completeness, and norm completions. Chapter 1 starts with a glossary of the basic theory of locally full and locally ν Summary solid topologies. Also, basic theory of various types of seminorms is developed, dealing with, for instance, quotients with respect to kernels and closures of positive cones. Most results are accompanied by (counter)examples. Chapter 2 studies the question whether every monotone seminorm on a par­ tially ordered vector space is the restriction of a monotone seminorm on a Riesz space. The answer is negative. A condition on a seminorm ρ that is necessary for extendability to a monotone seminorm on a Riesz space is the monotone* property (—11 < χ < v, u,v > 0 ^ p(x) < p(u) +p(v)). It is sufficient for extendability to a monotone seminorm on every partially ordered vector space, in particular every Riesz space, in which the initial space is majorizing (2.1). Fremlin seminorms on majorizing subspaces can always be extended to Fremlin seminorms on the whole space (2.3). Explicit formulas for greatest extensions are given and preservation of norm completeness is investigated (2.12). Chapter 3 studies a reasonable notion of 'Riesz seminorm' on a partially ordered vector space. The first approach is to consider seminorms that are restrictions of Riesz seminorms on the Dedekind completion. A characterization of such seminorms is given (3.15, 3.29), based on a notion of 'solid set' in a partially ordered vector space (3.7). There is, as before, an explicit construction of extensions. The ensuing notion of 'Riesz seminorm' turns out to be rather weak. For example, there may exist two such seminorms that coincide on the positive cone (3.38). A stronger notion is regularity, generalizing Riesz seminorms in a very convenient way. Theorems about norm completeness are given, generalizing results concerning the r-norm of the theory of spaces of operators (3.46). The last section studies norm completions (3.51, 3.55). Chapter 4 investigates what norms are restrictions of Riesz norms. Since every partially ordered vector space is (isomorphic to) a subspace of a Riesz space, it is very natural to ask which norms on partially ordered vector spaces allow embedding in normed Riesz spaces. The norms that can be obtained this way turn out to be Fremlin norms such that the positive cone is closed (4.8). A similar result is obtained for restriction of M-norms (4.34). Under additional conditions, the results can be extended to unclosed cones (4.21) and to seminorms (4.28).

Introduction It is well-known that if (0394, F, IL) is a u-finite measure space and if 1 ~ p 00, then the Banach dual L *p of the Banach space Lp = Lp(0394, IL) can be identified with Lq = Lq(L1, 03BC), where p-1 + q-1 = 1. For p =00 the situation is different; the space Li is a linear subspace of L*, and only in a very trivial situation (the finite-dimensional case) we have Li = Lfi. Restricting ourselves to the real case, the Banach dual L *~ is a (real) Riesz space, i.e., a vector lattice, and Li is now a band in L*. The disjoint complement (i.e., the set of all elements in L* disjoint to all elements in LI) is also a band in L*, called the band of singular linear functionals on Loo.

  • ORDER EXTREME POINTS and SOLID CONVEX HULLS 1. Introduction at the Very Heart of Banach Space Geometry Lies the Study of Three I
    ORDER EXTREME POINTS AND SOLID CONVEX HULLS T. OIKHBERG AND M.A. TURSI To the memory of Victor Lomonosov Abstract. We consider the \order" analogues of some classical notions of Banach space geometry: extreme points and convex hulls. A Hahn- Banach type separation result is obtained, which allows us to establish an \order" Krein-Milman Theorem. We show that the unit ball of any infinite dimensional reflexive space contains uncountably many order extreme points, and investigate the set of positive norm-attaining func- tionals. Finally, we introduce the \solid" version of the Krein-Milman Property, and show it is equivalent to the Radon-Nikod´ym Property. 1. Introduction At the very heart of Banach space geometry lies the study of three in- terrelated subjects: (i) separation results (starting from the Hahn-Banach Theorem), (ii) the structure of extreme points, and (iii) convex hulls (for instance, the Krein-Milman Theorem on convex hulls of extreme points). Certain counterparts of these notions exist in the theory of Banach lattices as well. For instance, there are positive separation/extension results; see e.g. [1, Section 1.2]. One can view solid convex hulls as lattice analogues of convex hulls; these objects have been studied, and we mention some of their properties in the paper. However, no unified treatment of all three phenomena listed above has been attempted. In the present paper, we endeavor to investigate the lattice versions of (i), (ii), and (iii) above. We introduce the order version of the classical notion of an extreme point: if A is a subset of a Banach lattice X, then a 2 A is called an order extreme point of A if for all x0; x1 2 A and t 2 (0; 1) the inequality a ≤ (1 − t)x0 + tx1 implies x0 = a = x1.

  • Vector Lattice Covers of Ideals and Bands in Pre-Riesz Spaces
    Vector lattice covers of ideals and bands in pre-Riesz spaces Anke Kalauch,∗ Helena Malinowski† November 12, 2018 Abstract Pre-Riesz spaces are ordered vector spaces which can be order densely embedded into vector lattices, their so-called vector lattice covers. Given a vector lattice cover Y for a pre-Riesz space X, we address the question how to find vector lattice covers for subspaces of X, such as ideals and bands. We provide conditions such that for a directed ideal I in X its smallest extension ideal in Y is a vector lattice cover. We show a criterion for bands in X and their extension bands in Y as well. Moreover, we state properties of ideals and bands in X which are generated by sets, and of their extensions in Y . 1 Introduction In the analysis of partially ordered vector spaces, subspaces as ideals and bands play a central role. In vector lattices, problems involving those subspaces are broadly discussed in the literature, see e.g. [1, 15, 22]. Directed ideals in partially ordered vector spaces were introduced in [6, Definition 2.2] and studied in [2, 3, 14, 5]; for a more recent overview see [12]. The investigation of disjointness and bands in partially ordered vector spaces starts in [9], where for the definition of disjointness sets of upper bounds are used instead of lattice operations. Here a band is defined to be a set that equals its double-disjoint complement, analogously to the notion in arXiv:1801.07191v2 [math.FA] 8 Nov 2018 Archimedean vector lattices. Ideals and bands are mostly considered in pre-Riesz spaces.

  • When Is the Core Equivalence Theorem Valid?
    DIVISION OF THE HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY PASADENA, CALIFORNIA 91125 WHEN IS THE CORE EQUIVALENCE THEOREM VALID? Charalambos D. Aliprantis California Institute of Technology Indiana University - Purdue Univeristy at Indianapolis Owen Burkinshaw Indiana University - Purdue University at Indianapolis SOCIAL SCIENCE WORKING PAPER 707 September 1989 WHEN IS THE CORE EQUIVALENCE THEOREM VALID? Charalambos D. Aliprantis and Owen Burkinshaw ABSTRACT In 1983 L. E. Jones exhibited a surprising example of a weakly Pareto optimal al­ location in a two consumer pure exchange economy that failed to be supported by prices. In this example the price space is not a vector lattice (Riesz space). Inspired by Jones' example, A. Mas-Colell and S. F. Richard proved that this pathological phenomenon cannot happen when the price space is a vector lattice. In particu­ lar, they established that (under certain conditions) in a pure exchange economy the lattice structure of the price space is sufficient to guarantee the supportability of weakly Pareto optimal allocations by prices-i.e., they showed that the second welfare theorem holds true in an exchange economy whose price space is a vector lattice. In addition, C. D. Aliprantis, D. J. Brown and 0. Burkinshaw have shown that when the price space of an exchange economy is a certain vector lattice, the Debreu-Scarf core equivalence theorem holds true, i.e., the sets of Walrasian equilib­ ria and Edgeworth equilibria coincide. (An Edgeworth equilibrium is an allocation that belongs to the core of every replica economy of the original economy.) In other words, the lattice structure of the price space is a sufficient condition for avoiding the pathological situation occuring in Jones' example.

  • Order-Quasiultrabarrelled Vector Lattices and Spaces
    Periodica Mathematica Hungarica YoL 6 (4), (1975), pp. 363--371. ~ ORDER-QUASIULTRABARRELLED VECTOR LATTICES AND SPACES by T. HUSAIN and S. M. KHALEELULLA (Hamilton) 1. Introduetion In this paper, we introduce and study a class of topological vector lattices (more generally, ordered topological vector spaces) which we call the class of order-quasiultrabarreUed vector lattices abbreviated to O. Q. U. vector lattices (respectively, O. Q. U. spaces). This class replaces that of order-infrabarrened Riesz spaces (respectively, order-infrabarrelled spaces) [8] in situations where local convexity is not assumed. We obtain an analogue of the Banach--Stein- haus theorem for lattice homom0rphisms on O. Q. U. vector lattices (respec- tively positive linear maps on O. Q. U. spaces) and the one for O. Q. U. spaces is s used successfully to obtain an analogue of the isomorphism theorem concerning O. Q.U. spaces and similar Schauder bases. Finally, we prove a closed graph theorem for O. Q. U, spaces, analogous to that for ultrabarrelled spa~s [6]. 2. Notations and preliminaries We abbreviate locally convex space, locally convex vector lattice, tope- logical vector space, and topological vector lattice to 1.c.s., 1.c.v.l., t.v.s., and t.v.l., respectively. We write (E, C) to denote a vector lattice (or ordered vector space) over the field of reals, with positive cone (or simply, cone) C. A subset B of a vector lattice (E, G) is solid if Ixl ~ ]y], yEB implies xEB; a vector subspace M of (~, C) which is also solid is called a lattice ideal.

  • Positive Representations of Finite Groups in Riesz Spaces
    POSITIVE REPRESENTATIONS OF FINITE GROUPS IN RIESZ SPACES MARCEL DE JEU AND MARTEN WORTEL Abstract. In this paper, which is part of a study of positive representations of locally compact groups in Banach lattices, we initiate the theory of posi- tive representations of finite groups in Riesz spaces. If such a representation has only the zero subspace and possibly the space itself as invariant principal bands, then the space is Archimedean and finite dimensional. Various notions of irreducibility of a positive representation are introduced and, for a finite group acting positively in a space with sufficiently many projections, these are shown to be equal. We describe the finite dimensional positive Archimedean representations of a finite group and establish that, up to order equivalence, these are order direct sums, with unique multiplicities, of the order indecom- posable positive representations naturally associated with transitive G-spaces. Character theory is shown to break down for positive representations. Induc- tion and systems of imprimitivity are introduced in an ordered context, where the multiplicity formulation of Frobenius reciprocity turns out not to hold. 1. Introduction and overview The theory of unitary group representations is well developed. Apart from its intrinsic appeal, it has been stimulated in its early days by the wish, originating from quantum theory, to understand the natural representations of symmetry groups of physical systems in L2-spaces. Such symmetry groups do not only yield natural unitary representations, but they have natural representations in other Banach spaces as well. For example, the orthogonal group in three dimensions does not only act on the L2-functions on the sphere or on three dimensional space.

  • Version of 4.9.09 Chapter 35 Riesz Spaces the Next Three Chapters Are
    Version of 4.9.09 Chapter 35 Riesz spaces The next three chapters are devoted to an abstract description of the ‘function spaces’ described in Chapter 24, this time concentrating on their internal structure and relationships with their associated measure algebras. I find that any convincing account of these must involve a substantial amount of general theory concerning partially ordered linear spaces, and in particular various types of Riesz space or vector lattice. I therefore provide an introduction to this theory, a kind of appendix built into the middle of the volume. The relation of this chapter to the next two is very like the relation of Chapter 31 to Chapter 32. As with Chapter 31, it is not really meant to be read for its own sake; those with a particular interest in Riesz spaces might be better served by Luxemburg & Zaanen 71, Schaefer 74, Zaanen 83 or my own book Fremlin 74a. I begin with three sections in an easy gradation towards the particular class of spaces which we need to understand: partially ordered linear spaces (§351), general Riesz spaces (§352) and Archimedean Riesz spaces (§353); the last includes notes on Dedekind (σ-)complete spaces. These sections cover the fragments of the algebraic theory of Riesz spaces which I will use. In the second half of the chapter, I deal with normed Riesz spaces (in particular, L- and M-spaces)(§354), spaces of linear operators (§355) and dual Riesz spaces (§356). Version of 16.10.07 351 Partially ordered linear spaces I begin with an account of the most basic structures which involve an order relation on a linear space, partially ordered linear spaces.

  • Operators and the Space of Integrable Scalar Functions with Respect to a Frechet-Valued Measure
    J. Austral. Math. Soc. (Series A) 65 (1998), 176-193 OPERATORS AND THE SPACE OF INTEGRABLE SCALAR FUNCTIONS WITH RESPECT TO A FRECHET-VALUED MEASURE ANTONIO FERNANDEZ and FRANCISCO NARANJO (Received 21 May 1997; revised 10 October 1997) Communicated by P. G. Dodds Abstract We consider the space L' (v, X) of all real functions that are integrable with respect to a measure v with values in a real Frechet space X. We study L-weak compactness in this space. We consider the problem of the relationship between the existence of copies of t°° in the space of all linear continuous operators from a complete DF-space Y to a Frechet lattice E with the Lebesgue property and the coincidence of this space with some ideal of compact operators. We give sufficient conditions on the measure v and the space X that imply that L' (v, X) has the Dunford-Pettis property. Applications of these results to Frechet AL-spaces and Kothe sequence spaces are also given. 1991 Mathematics subject classification (Amer. Math. Soc): primary 46A04, 46A40,46G10,47B07. Keywords and phrases: Frechet lattice, L-weak compactness, Dunford-Pettis property, L-weakly compact operators, generalized AL-spaces, Kothe sequences spaces. 1. Introduction In this paper we study operators with values in, or defined on, spaces of scalar-valued integrable functions with respect to a vector measure with values in a real Frechet space. This kind of integration was introduced by Lewis in [19] and developed essentially by Kluvanek and Knowles in [18] for locally convex spaces. Let us recall briefly the basic definitions (see [19] and [18]).

Recall that a sequence .un/ on L order converges to u 2 L whenever there is an increasing sequence (λn/ and a decreasing sequence (µn/ on L such that sup λn D u D inf µn and λn ≤ un ≤ µn; n 2 N: (1) n2N n2N In case the poset L is a Riesz space, the relation (1) is equivalent to the following: there exists a sequence (λn/ that decreases to 0 such that ju − unj ≤ λn; n 2 N: (2) ∗ Tel.: +27 12 420 2819; fax: +27 12 420 3893.
