In this paper a systematic approach to defining these spaces which uses partitions and weights is introduced. This approach gives a unified description of many well-known complemented subspaces of L_p. It is proved that the class of spaces with such norms is stable under (p,2) sums. By introducing the notion of an envelope norm, we obtain a necessary condition for a Banach sequence space with norm given by partitions and weights to be isomorphic to a subspace of L_p. Using this we define a space Y_n with norm given by partitions and weights with distance to any subspace of L_p growing with n. This allows us to construct an example of a Banach space with norm given by partitions and weights which is not isomorphic to a subspace of L_p.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-10-15T21:01:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "46B20", "46E30" ], "keywords": [ "partitions", "banach sequence space", "systematic approach", "banach space", "well-known complemented subspaces" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2002math.....10228A" } } }
