Köthe-Bochner Function Spaces - Pei-Kee Lin

. .

Résumé :
This monograph is devoted to the study of K?the-Bochner function spaces, an active area of research at the intersection of Banach space theory, harmonic analysis, probability, and operator theory. A number of significant results---many scattered throughout the literature---are distilled and presented here, giving readers a comprehensive view of the subject from its origins in functional analysis to its connections to other disciplines. Considerable background material is provided, and the theory of K?the-Bochner spaces is rigorously developed, with a particular focus on open problems. Extensive historical information, references, and questions for further study are included...

Sommaire:
instructive examples and many exercises are incorporated throughout. Both expansive and precise, this book's unique approach and systematic organization will appeal to advanced graduate students and researchers in functional analysis, probability, operator theory, and related fields....

From the reviews: This book is a nice and useful reference for researchers in functional analysis who wish to have a quite comprehensive survey of geometric properties of Banach spaces of vector-valued functions. ---Mathematical Reviews This book ... gives in fact an exhaustive and very up-to-date account of several aspects of the general theory (isomorphic) and geometry of Banach spaces. This book is self-contained with an exhaustive list of references at the end of each chapter. Apart from well thought-out exercises at the end of each section, the `Notes and Remarks' section at the end of each chapter contains several open questions with additional comments and references. This book is worth having on the shelves of anyone interested in Banach space theory. I thoroughly enjoyed going through it.(ZENTRALBLATT MATH) This book, though somewahte restrictively entitled, gives in fact an exhaustive and very up-to-date account of several aspects of the general theory (isomorphic) and geometry of Banach spaces. . .
