Abstract

The ℒ p spaces which were introduced by A. Pełczyński and the first named author are studied. It is proved, e.g., that (i)X is an ℒ p space if and only ifX* is and ℒ q space (p −1+q −1=1). (ii) A complemented subspace of an ℒ p space is either an ℒ p or an ℒ2 space. (iii) The ℒ p spaces have sufficiently many Boolean algebras of projections. These results are applied to show thatX is an ℒ (resp. ℒ1) space if and only ifX admits extensions (resp. liftings) of compact operators havingX as a domain or range space. We also prove a theorem on the “local reflexivity” of an arbitrary Banach space.
