Associate Spaces

In this chapter, we study associate spaces X1 of symmetric spaces X. The space X1 is defined by the duality \(\langle f,g\rangle =\int gf\,dm\) , f ∈ X, g ∈ X1, and the norm \(\|\cdot \|_{\mathbf{X}^{1}}\) is induced by the canonical embedding of X1 into

Associate Spaces

In this chapter, we study associate Rspaces X1 of symmetric spaces X. The space X1 is defined by the duality hf ; gi D fg dm, f 2 X, g 2 X1 , and the norm k  kX1 is induced by the canonical embedding of X1 into the dual space X of X. We show that .X1 ; k  kX1 / is a symmetric space and that the canonical embedding of X1 into X is surjective if and only if the space X is separable, i.e., X has property .A/.

7.1 Dual and Associate Spaces Let X be a symmetric space and let X be its dual Banach space. The space X consists of all linear continuous (bounded) functionals u W X ! R on X equipped with the norm kukX D supfju.f /j W kf kX  1g < 1: Every symmetric space X is a Banach ideal lattice. Hence its dual space X is also a Banach ideal lattice with the natural order u  v ” u.f /  v.f / for all f 2 X; f  0: For every u 2 X , one can define functionals juj, uC , and u such that u D uC  u ; juj D uC C u : The functional juj is the least element in X such that juj  u  juj and juj.f /  0 for all f 2 X, f  0.

7 Associate Spaces

In some cases, the dual space X of a symmetric space X is itself a symmetric space, or to be more precise, it can be identified in a natural way with a symmetric space. Consider two typical examples. Example 7.1.1. Let X D L1 . Then L1 D L1 by Theorem 2.4.1. More precisely, for every function g 2 L1 , there is ug 2 L1 , defined by Z1 ug .f / D

fgdm; f 2 L1 : 0

Then ug 2 L1 and kug kL1 D kgkL1 . Indeed, if u 2 L1 , the equality u .A/ D u.1A /; A 2 Fm determines a  -additive set function u on RC , which is absolutely continuous with respect to the measure m. By the Radon–Nikodym theorem, there exists g such that Z u .A/ D

gdm A

for all A 2 Fm with mA < 1, and hence Z1

Z1 fdu D

u.f / D 0

fgdm D ug .f / 0

for all f 2 L1 .m/. Thus, the embedding  W L1 3 g ! ug 2 L1 is an isometric isomorphism between L1 and L1 . Example 7.1.2. Let X D L1 . For every function g 2 L1 , there exists a functional ug 2 L1 , Z1 ug W L1 3 f !

fgdm 2 R; 0

such that the mapping  W L1 3 g ! ug 2 L1 is a linear isometry of L1 into L1 , i.e., kug kL1 D kgkL1 . However, in this case, .L1 / D fug ; g 2 L1 g does not coincide with the space L1 . In other words, not all functionals u 2 L1 have the form ug ; g 2 L1 .

Indeed, since clL1 .F0 / D L01 ¤ L1 ; we can choose u1 2 L1 such that u1 .1Œ0;1/ / D 1 and u1 .f / D 0 for all f 2 F0 . Z1 If u1 D ug1 for some g1 2 L1 , then we would have g1 dm D 1 and Z1

fg1 dm D 0 for all f 2 F0 , which is false. Thus, the embedding .L1 /  L1 is

strict (see also Theorem 2.4.1). Considering a symmetric space X, we would like to characterize the part of the space X that consists of all functionals ug 2 X ; g 2 L1 C L1 , while all such functions g form a symmetric
