Abstract Let X be a Banach space and E be a perfect Banach function space over a finite measure space (, , λ) such that L ∞ ⊂ E ⊂ L 1 . Let E  denote the Köthe dual of E and τ (E, E  ) stand for the natural Mackey topology on E. It is shown that every nuclear operator T : E → X between the locally convex space (E, τ (E, E  )) and a Banach space X is Bochner representable. In particular, we obtain that a linear operator T : L ∞ → X between the locally convex space (L ∞ , τ (L ∞ , L 1 )) and a Banach space X is nuclear if and only if its representing measure m T :  → X has the Radon-Nikodym property and |m T |() = T nuc (= the nuclear norm of T ). As an application, it is shown that some natural kernel operators on L ∞ are nuclear. Moreover, it is shown that every nuclear operator T : L ∞ → X admits a factorization through some Orlicz space L ϕ , that is, T = S ◦ i ∞ , where S : L ϕ → X is a Bochner representable and compact operator and i ∞ : L ∞ → L ϕ is the inclusion map.

1 Introduction and preliminaries We assume that (X ,  ·  X ) is a real Banach space. For terminology concerning Riesz spaces and function spaces, we refer the reader to [9,13,27]. We assume that (, , λ) is a finite measure space. Let L 0 denote the corresponding space of λ-equivalence classes of all -measurable real functions on . Then L 0 is a super Dedekind complete Riesz space, equipped with the topology To of con-

vergence n in measure. By S() we denote the space of all real -simple functions ci 1 Ai , where the sets Ai ∈  are pairwise disjoint. s = i=1 Let (E,  ·  E ) be a Banach function space, where E is an order ideal of L 0 such that L ∞ ⊂ E ⊂ L 1 , and  ·  E is a Riesz norm on E. By T E we denote the  ·  E -norm topology on E. By E  we denote the Köthe dual of E, that is,    0 |u(ω) v(ω)| dλ < ∞ for all u ∈ E . E := v ∈ L : 



The associated norm  ·  E  on E  is defined for v ∈ E  by  v E  = sup



 |u(ω) v(ω)| dλ : u ∈ E, u E ≤ 1 .

We will assume that E is perfect, that is, E = E  and u E = u E  . The order continuous dual E n∼ of E separates the points of E and E n∼ can be identified with E  through the Riesz isomorphism E  v → Fv ∈ E n∼ , where  Fv (u) =

(see [13, Theorem 6.1.1]). The Mackey topology τ (E, E  ) is a locally convexsolid Hausdorff topology with the Lebesgue property (see [9, Corollary 82H]). Then τ (E, E  ) ⊂ T E and τ (E, E  ) = T
