A well-known problem arising from theory of risk measures asks when the order closedness of a convex set in $\\mathcal{X}$ implies the closedness with respect to the topology $\\sigma(\\mathcal{X},\\mathcal{X}_n^\\sim)$ where $\\mathcal{X}_n^\\sim$ is the order continuous dual of $\\mathcal{X}$. In this paper, we give an answer to the problem for a large class of Banach function spaces. We show that under the Fatou property and the subsequence splitting property, every order closed convex set in $\\mathcal{X}$ is $\\sigma(\\mathcal{X},\\mathcal{X}_n^\\sim)$-closed if and only if either $\\mathcal{X}$ or the norm dual $\\mathcal{X}^*$ of $\\mathcal{X}$ is order continuous. In addition, we also give a characterization of $\\mathcal{X}$ for which the order closedness of a convex set in $\\mathcal{X}$ is equivalent to the closedness with respect to the topology $\\sigma(\\mathcal{X},\\mathcal{X}_{uo}^\\sim)$ where $\\mathcal{X}_{uo}^\\sim$ is the unbounded order continuous dual of $\\mathcal{X}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-08-21T03:11:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "46E30", "46A55", "46A20" ], "keywords": [ "banach function space", "order closedness", "order closed convex set", "risk measures asks", "unbounded order continuous dual" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 27, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
