Session 36. Topology in Functional Analysis

Rotund and smooth renormings of the Lebesgue-Bochner space \(L^1(\mu,X)\)

The lecture is based on recent two joint papers of Sebastian Lajara and myslef. Let \((X,\|\cdot\|)\) be a Banach space and \(\mu\) be a probability measure. Using Luxemburg norm associated to a suitable Orlicz function, we construct an equivalent norm \(\||\cdot|\|\) on the Lebesgue-Bochner space \(L^1(\mu,X)\) with the property: If \(\|\cdot\|\) on \(X\) is rotund (or uniformly rotund in every direction, or locally uniformly rotund, or midpoint locally uniformly rotund, or Gateaux smooth, or uniformly Gateaux smooth), then the norm \(\||\cdot|\|\) has the respective property (or a combination of them). Moreover, if \(\|\cdot\|\) on \(X\) is uniformly rotund (or uniformly Fréchet smooth, or has both latter properties), then the restriction of \(\||\cdot|\|\) to any reflexive subspace of \(L^1(\mu, X)\) is such.
