Introduction PROCEEDINGS OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY Volume 130, Number 6, Pages 1645{1654 S 0002-9939(02)05997-X Article electronically published on January 25, 2002 ON THE DUAL OF ORLICZ{LORENTZ SPACE H.

A description of the K¨othe dual of the Orlicz{Lorentz space Λ';w generated by an Orlicz function ' and a regular weight function w is pre- sented. It is also shown that in the case of separable Orlicz{Lorentz spaces the regularity condition on w is necessary and sufficient for the coincidence of the Banach dual space with the described K¨othe dual space. 1. Introduction Let (Ω,µ):=(Ω; Σ,µ) be a measure space with the complete and σ-finite measure µ,andletL0(µ) denote the space of all µ-equivalence classes of Σ-measurable functions on Ω with the topology of convergence in measure on µ-finite sets.

If in addition the unit ball BE = ff : kfkE ≤ 1g is closed in L (µ), then we say that E has the Fatou property. A Banach function space defined on (N; 2N,µ) with the counting measure µ is called a Banach sequence space (on N). A Banach function space E on (Ω,µ)issaidtobesymmetric if for every f 2 0 L (µ)andg 2 E with µf = µg,wehavef 2 E and kfkE = kgkE,whereforany 0 h 2 L (µ),µh is the distribution function defined by µh(t)=µ(f! 2 Ω:jh(!)j >tg);t≥ 0: If E is a Banach function space on (Ω,µ), then the K¨othe dual E0 of E is a Banach function space, which can be identified with the space of all functionals possessing an integral representation, that is, Z 0 f 2 0 k k 0 j j 1g E = g L (µ): g E =sup fg dµ < : kfkE ≤1 Ω It is well known that if E has order continuous norm (i.e., kfnkE ! 0 whenever ∗ 0 E 3 fn # 0), then the dual space E can be naturally identified with E ([8]). In this paper we are interested in the description of the K¨othe duals for symmetric Orlicz{Lorentz spaces defined on either nonatomic or purely atomic measure space.

HUDZIK, A. KAMINSKA,´ AND M. MASTYLO the same way in both cases, for simplicity, we consider only the case of Orlicz{ Lorentz spaces defined on (I;m), where either I =(0; 1) or I =(0; 1)andm is the Lebesgue measure. We recall that if ' :[0; 1) ! [0; 1)isanOrlicz function (i.e., a convex function which assumes value zero only at zero) and w : I ! (0; 1)isaweight function (i.e.,R nonincreasing and locally integrable with respect to the measure m and such 1 1 1 that 0 wdm= if I =(0; )), then the Orlicz{Lorentz function space Λ';w on (Ω,µ)isthesetofallf 2 L0(µ) such that Z '(λf ∗)wdm<1 Ω for some λ>0, where for any f 2 L0(µ), f ∗ denotes the nonincreasing rearrange- ment of f defined by ∗ f (t)=inffλ>0: µf (λ) ≤ tg for any t>0 (by convention inf ; = 1). N In the case of counting measure on 2 the Orlicz{Lorentz sequence space λ';w on N is defined by n X1 o ∗ λ';w = x = fx(k)g : '(λx (k)) w(k) < 1 for some λ>0 : k=1 Here w =Pfw(k)g is a weight sequence, a nonincreasing sequence of positive reals 1 1 such that k=1 w(k)= . It is easy to check that Λ';w (resp., λ';w) is a symmetric function space (resp., symmetric sequence space) with the Fatou property, equipped with the norm n Z o kfk =inf λ>0: '(f ∗/λ)wdm≤ 1 ; I respectively n X1 o kxk =inf λ>0: '(x∗(k)/λ)w(k) ≤ 1 : k=1 Note that if w ≡ 1(resp.,w(k) = 1 for all k 2 N), then Λ';w (resp., λ';w)is the Orlicz function space L' (resp., Orlicz sequence space `'). If '(t)=t,then Λ';w (resp., λ';w) is the Lorentz space Λw (resp., λw). We recall that an Orlicz function ' satisfies the ∆2-condition (' 2 ∆2)ifthereexistsC>0 such that '(2t) ≤ C'(t) for all t>0. We will further say that ' is an N-function whenever limt!0 '(t)=t = 0 and limt!1 '(t)=t = 1. We refer to [5] and [7] to study the basic properties of Orlicz{Lorentz spaces as well to the references included therein. In what followsR by a regular weight we mean a weight function w such that, if we t 2 ≥ 2 denote S(t)= 0 w(s) ds for t I,thenS(2t) KS(t) for any t>0 t (0; 1=2) in the case I =(0; 1) ,whereK>1 is independent of t. In the sequence caseP a weight f g ≥ 2 N n w = w(k) is regular if S(2n) KS(n) for any n ,whereS(n)= k=1 w(k) and K>1 is a constant independent of n. It is well known and easy to show that w is regular iff there exists C>0 such that tw(t) ≤ S(t) ≤ Ctw(t) for all t 2 I in the function case and analogously nw(n) ≤ S(n) ≤ Cnw(n) for all n 2 N in the sequence case.

(0; 1) is a concave function, then the Marcinkiewicz space Mρ is defined by R n t o f ∗(s) ds 2 0 k k 0 1 Mρ = f L (m): f Mρ =sup < ; t2I ρ(t) R t and the Marcinkiewicz space MS with S(t)= 0 w(s) ds is the K¨othe dual of Λw, that is, 0 (Λw) = MS with equality of norms (see [3] or [9]). In what follows we will write f g for nonnegative functions f and g whenever C1f ≤ g ≤ C2f for some Cj > 0;j=1; 2. The problem of the description of dual spaces for Lorentz sequence spaces has been considered in [1] and [2]. It was proved there that the regularity of w is a necessary and sufficient condition, in the case p = 1, and a sufficient condition in the case p>1, in order that the K¨othe dual of classical Lorentz sequence space p d(w; p)=λ';w with '(t)=t for t ≥ 0 to consist exactly of those sequences fx(k)g ∗ 1=p 0 for which fx (k)=w(k) g2`p0 ,where1=p +1=p =1. In [1] Allen also raises the question of whether the similar description of the K¨othe dual space is also true for Lorentz function spaces. Reisner [12] answered this question positively and gave a proof which works in essentially the same way in the sequence and in the function spaces. He also proved that regularity of w is necessary for p>1. Following the ideas from [12] we prove in this paper, under the assumption that ' is an N-function satisfying the ∆2-condition, that the regularity of the weight function w is a necessary and sufficient condition for the dual of the Orlicz{Lorentz ∗ space Λ';w on (I;m) to consist exactly of those functions f for which f =w belongs to the Orlicz function space L'∗ on (I;wdm), where '∗ is the Young conjugate of ', i.e., '∗(t)=supfst − '(s): s ≥ 0g for t ≥ 0. We also obtain some partial results for ' being an arbitrary Orlicz function. A similar result is also true for the symmetric Orlicz{Lorentz sequence space λ';w on N. In the proof of the main result we will use the Lozanovski˘ı theorem on the representation of the K¨othe dual space for the Calder´on-Lozanovski˘ı space (see [11]). Let us recall that if (E0;E1) is any couple of Banach function spaces on (Ω,µ)andU denotes the set of all concave and positively homogeneous functions :[0; 1) × [0; 1) ! [0; 1) such that (s; t) = 0 if and only if s = t =0,then the Calder´on{Lozanovski˘ıspace (E0;E1) generated by the couple (E0;E1)anda 0 function 2U consists of all f 2 L (µ) such that jf|≤λψ(jf0j; jf1j)a.e.forsome λ>0andfj 2 Ej, j =0; 1. The space (E0;E1) is a Banach function space on (Ω,µ) (cf. [10], [11]) equipped with the following equivalent norms: k k f j |≤ j j j j k k ≤ g f =inf λ>0: f λψ( f0 ; f1 )a.e.; fj Ej 1;j=0; 1 and k k1 fk k k k j j j j j j g f =inf f0 E0 + f1 E1 : f = ( f0 ; f1 ) ; satisfying the inequalities k k ≤k k1 ≤ k k f f 2 f License or copyright restrictions may apply to redistribution; see https://www.ams.org/journal-terms-of-use 1648 H.

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.

  • Burkholder's Inequalities in Noncommutative Lorentz
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY Volume 138, Number 7, July 2010, Pages 2431–2441 S 0002-9939(10)10267-6 Article electronically published on March 24, 2010 BURKHOLDER’S INEQUALITIES IN NONCOMMUTATIVE LORENTZ SPACES YONG JIAO (Communicated by Marius Junge) Abstract. We prove Burkholder’s inequalities in noncommutative Lorentz spaces Lp,q(M), 1 <p<∞, 1 ≤ q<∞, associated with a von Neumann algebra M equipped with a faithful normal tracial state. These estimates generalize the classical inequalities in the commutative case. 1. Introduction Martingale inequalities and sums of independent random variables are important tools in classical harmonic analysis. A fundamental result due to Burkholder [1, 2] can be stated as follows. Given a probability space (Ω, F ,P), let {Fn}n≥1 be a nondecreasing sequence of σ-fields of F such that F = ∨Fn and let En be the conditional expectation operator relative to Fn. Given 2 ≤ p<∞ and an p L -bounded martingale f =(fn)n≥1, we have ∞ ∞ 1/2 1/p 2 p (1.1) fLp ≈ Ek−1(|df k| ) + |df k| . Lp Lp k=1 k=1 The first term on the right is called the conditioned square function of f, while the second is called the p-variation of f. Rosenthal’s inequalities [14] can be regarded as the particular case where the sequence df =(df 1,df2, ...) is a family of independent mean-zero random variables df k = ak. In this case it is easy to reduce Rosenthal’s inequalities to ∞ ∞ ∞ 1/2 1/p ≈ 2 p (1.2) ak Lp ak 2 + ak p .

Additionally, Tu˘gdefined and investigated a new sequence space as the domain of the Nörlund matrix on the space of bounded variation sequences in 2017. In this article, we defined new space bs(Nt) and cs(Nt) and examined the domain of the Nörlund mean on the bs and cs, which are bounded and convergent series, respectively. We also examined their inclusion relations. We defined the norms over them and investigated whether these new spaces provide conditions of Banach space. Finally, we determined their a-, b-, g-duals, and characterized their matrix transformations on this space and into this space.

Background In the studies on the sequence space, creating a new sequence space and research on its properties have been important. Some researchers examined the algebraic properties of the sequence space while others investigated its place among other known spaces and its duals, and characterized the matrix transformations on this space.

    TOEPLITZ EXTENSIONS IN NONCOMMUTATIVE TOPOLOGY AND MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS FRANCESCA ARICI AND BRAM MESLAND Abstract. We review the theory of Toeplitz extensions and their role in op- erator K-theory, including Kasparov’s bivariant K-theory. We then discuss the recent applications of Toeplitz algebras in the study of solid state sys- tems, focusing in particular on the bulk-edge correspondence for topological insulators. 1. Introduction Noncommutative topology is rooted in the equivalence of categories between lo- cally compact topological spaces and commutative C∗-algebras. This duality allows for a transfer of ideas, constructions, and results between topology and operator al- gebras. This interplay has been fruitful for the advancement of both fields. Notable examples are the Connes–Skandalis foliation index theorem [17], the K-theory proof of the Atiyah–Singer index theorem [3, 4], and Cuntz’s proof of Bott periodicity in K-theory [18]. Each of these demonstrates how techniques from operator algebras lead to new results in topology, or simplifies their proofs. In the other direction, Connes’ development of noncommutative geometry [14] by using techniques from Riemannian geometry to study C∗-algebras, led to the discovery of cyclic homol- ogy [13], a homology theory for noncommutative algebras that generalises de Rham cohomology. Noncommutative geometry and topology techniques have found ample applica- tions in mathematical physics, ranging from Connes’ reformulation of the stan- dard model of particle physics [15], to quantum field theory [16], and to solid-state physics. The noncommutative approach to the study of complex solid-state sys- tems was initiated and developed in [5, 6], focusing on the quantum Hall effect and resulting in the computation of topological invariants via pairings between K- theory and cyclic homology.

  • A Symplectic Banach Space with No Lagrangian Subspaces
    transactions of the american mathematical society Volume 273, Number 1, September 1982 A SYMPLECTIC BANACHSPACE WITH NO LAGRANGIANSUBSPACES BY N. J. KALTON1 AND R. C. SWANSON Abstract. In this paper we construct a symplectic Banach space (X, Ü) which does not split as a direct sum of closed isotropic subspaces. Thus, the question of whether every symplectic Banach space is isomorphic to one of the canonical form Y X Y* is settled in the negative. The proof also shows that £(A") admits a nontrivial continuous homomorphism into £(//) where H is a Hilbert space. 1. Introduction. Given a Banach space E, a linear symplectic form on F is a continuous bilinear map ß: E X E -> R which is alternating and nondegenerate in the (strong) sense that the induced map ß: E — E* given by Û(e)(f) = ü(e, f) is an isomorphism of E onto E*. A Banach space with such a form is called a symplectic Banach space. It can be shown, by essentially the argument of Lemma 2 below, that any symplectic Banach space can be renormed so that ß is an isometry. Any symplectic Banach space is reflexive. Standard examples of symplectic Banach spaces all arise in the following way. Let F be a reflexive Banach space and set E — Y © Y*. Define the linear symplectic form fiyby Qy[(^. y% (z>z*)] = z*(y) ~y*(z)- We define two symplectic spaces (£,, ß,) and (E2, ß2) to be equivalent if there is an isomorphism A : Ex -» E2 such that Q2(Ax, Ay) = ß,(x, y). A. Weinstein [10] has asked the question whether every symplectic Banach space is equivalent to one of the form (Y © Y*, üy).

    GREEN’S FUNCTION FOR SECOND ORDER ELLIPTIC EQUATIONS WITH SINGULAR LOWER ORDER COEFFICIENTS SEICK KIM AND GEORGIOS SAKELLARIS Abstract. We construct Green’s function for second order elliptic operators of the form Lu = −∇ · (A∇u + bu) + c · ∇u + du in a domain and obtain pointwise bounds, as well as Lorentz space bounds. We assume that the matrix of principal coefficients A is uniformly elliptic and bounded and the lower order coefficients b, c, and d belong to certain Lebesgue classes and satisfy the condition d −∇· b ≥ 0. In particular, we allow the lower order coefficients to be singular. We also obtain the global pointwise bounds for the gradient of Green’s function in the case when the mean oscillations of the coefficients A and b satisfy the Dini conditions and the domain is C1,Dini. 1. Introduction Let Ω be a domain (i.e., an open connected set) in Rn with n ≥ 3. We consider second order elliptic operators in divergence form n n ij i i Lu = − Di(a (x)Dju + b (x)u) + c (x)Diu + d(x)u, iX,j=1 Xi=1 which hereafter shall be abbreviated as Lu = − div(A∇u + bu) + c · ∇u + du. We assume that the principal coefficients A = (aij) are measurable n × n matrices that are bounded and uniformly elliptic; i.e. there is a constant λ> 0 such that n λ|ξ|2 ≤ A(x)ξ · ξ = aij(x)ξiξj, ∀x ∈ Ω, ∀ξ ∈ Rn. (1.1) iX,j=1 We also assume that the lower order coefficients b = (b1,..., bn), c = (c1,..., cn), and d are such that b ∈ Lq(Ω), c ∈ Lr(Ω), d ∈ Ls(Ω) for some q, r ≥ n, s ≥ n/2.

If, additionally, the space is completed for each wuc series, then the underlying space is complete. In the process the existing proofs are simplified and some unanswered questions are solved. This research line was originated in the PhD thesis of the second author. Since then, it has been possible to characterize the completeness of a normed spaces through different convergence subspaces (which are be defined using different kinds of convergence) associated to an unconditionally Cauchy sequence.

CARRO, ALEJANDRO GARC´IA DEL AMO, AND JAVIER SORIA (Communicated by J. Marshall Ash) Abstract. We show that the Lorentz space Λ1(w) is a Banach space if and only if the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator M satisfies a certain weak-type estimate. We also consider the case of general measures. Finally, we study some properties of several indices associated to these spaces. 1. Introduction We are going to study weighted Lorentz spaces of functions defined in Rn as follows (for standard notation we refer to [BS] and [GR]): If u is a weight in Rn, + w is a weight in R , fu∗ denotes the decreasing rearrangement of f with respect to the measure u(x) dx and 0 <p< , we define ∞ 1/p ∞ p p p Λu(w)= f; f Λu(w) = fu∗(t) w(t)dt < . k k 0 ∞ Z If u 1, we will only write Λp(w). Classical examples are obtained by choosing ≡ (p/q) 1 p q,p w(t)=t − .InthiscaseΛ(w)=L . A classical result of G.G. Lorentz (see [Lo]) shows that Λ1(w) is a norm, if and only if, w is a decreasing function. The problem of findingk·k conditions on w so that Λp(w) is a Banach space (that is, there exists a norm equivalent to Λp(w)) was solved, for p>1, by E. Sawyer ([Sa]). This condition is that the Hardy-Littlewoodk·k maximal operator is bounded on Λp(w).

Notations and preliminary results. For a given infinite matrix A = (anm)n,m≥1, the operators An, for any integer n ≥ 1, are defined by ∞ An(X) = anmxm, (1.1) m=1 where X = (xn)n≥1 is the series intervening in the second member being con- vergent. So, we are led to the study of the infinite linear system An(X) = bn,n= 1,2,..., (1.2) where B=(b n)n≥1 is a one-column matrix and X the unknown, see [2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9]. Equation (1.2) can be written in the form AX = B, where AX = (An(X))n≥1.In this paper, we will also consider A as an operator from a sequence space into another sequence space. A Banach space E of complex sequences with the norm E is a BK space if P X → P X E each projection n : n is continuous. A BK space is said to have AK B = (b ) B = ∞ b e (see [8]) if for every n n≥1, n=1 m m, that is, ∞ bmem → 0 (n →∞). (1.3) m=N+1 E We shall write s, c, c0,andl∞ for the sets of all complex, convergent sequences, sequences convergent to zero, and bounded sequences, respectively.

Banach spaces Ck[a; b] We give the vector space Ck[a; b] of k-times continuously differentiable functions on an interval [a; b] a metric which makes it complete. Mere pointwise limits of continuous functions easily fail to be continuous. First recall the standard [1.1] Claim: The set Co(K) of complex-valued continuous functions on a compact set K is complete with o the metric jf − gjCo , with the C -norm jfjCo = supx2K jf(x)j. Proof: This is a typical three-epsilon argument. To show that a Cauchy sequence ffig of continuous functions has a pointwise limit which is a continuous function, first argue that fi has a pointwise limit at every x 2 K. Given " > 0, choose N large enough such that jfi − fjj < " for all i; j ≥ N. Then jfi(x) − fj(x)j < " for any x in K. Thus, the sequence of values fi(x) is a Cauchy sequence of complex numbers, so has a limit 0 0 f(x). Further, given " > 0 choose j ≥ N sufficiently large such that jfj(x) − f(x)j < " .
