Abstract

We prove a Kolmogorov--Riesz compactness theorem for Banach lattices over spaces of homogeneous type. Especially, we consider the one for $L^1$. Our characterization is formulated in terms of boundedness, tightness, and approximation by averaging operators, which replace translations in the absence of a group structure. The result requires neither the Vitali covering property nor continuity assumptions on the measure of balls, lower volume bounds, or finiteness of the underlying measure space, thereby extending several recent compactness criteria in the literature. Our approach begins with a new proof of the Kolmogorov--Riesz theorem in $L^1$, which avoids reflexivity and yields a unified treatment of $L^p$-spaces for $1\le p<\infty$. We then establish an approximation theorem based on Christ's dyadic cubes and use it to characterize the closure of compactly supported continuous functions in general ball Banach function spaces. Applications include compactness criteria for rearrangement-invariant Banach function spaces and Morrey spaces. In the Euclidean setting, we also identify the resulting approximation space with the classical heat-semigroup (equivalently, mollifier) closure.

Banach's principle in vector lattices

We develop an abstract Banach principle in vector lattices and apply it to obtain lattice-theoretic versions of the individual and maximal ergodic theorems, without recourse to any measure representation. Considering a sequence of bounded operators with values in a Dedekind $\sigma$-complete vector lattice endowed with...

Differentiability of Lipschitz curves in $p$-Banach spaces

The problem of differentiating Lipschitz curves in Banach spaces goes back to Tamarkin in the early 1930s and is one of the origins of the Radon--Nikod\'ym property in classical Banach space theory. In this article we characterize those quasi-Banach spaces $X$ for which every Lipschitz curve $F\to\mathbb{R}\to X$ admit...

Variants of order semicontinuity in Banach lattices

In this article we consider various properties of a normed lattice, which are similar to semicontinuity (also known as the Fatou property), establish relations between these properties, and discuss stability of these properties under renorming. In particular, we show that a normed lattice $F$ is order continuous iff ev...

Upper bound properties of free and related Banach lattices via operators

It is known that the free $p$-convex Banach lattice on a Banach space $X$ can be represented as a space of functions on the unit ball of $X^*$. In this way, it gives rise to certain related (larger) lattices. To investigate such lattices, we introduce a new tool, related to operators into $X$. This tool is then used to...

Mean convergence for Banach space-valued random elements indexed in measure spaces

This article studies mean convergence of Banach space-valued random elements indexed in a family of finite measure spaces. We derive $L^p$-convergence theorems under (compact) uniform integrability in two regimes: a decaying-index-mass regime and a bounded-index-mass regime, the latter requiring a new dependence struct...

A survey on the Asplund property for spaces $C(X)$ of continuous functions

The Asplund property plays an important role in Banach space theory due to its connections with differentiability properties of continuous convex functions, optimization problems, and the weak topology of Banach spaces. Motivated by the variety of nonequivalent definitions proposed in the literature for locally convex...
