We study the set SNA(M, Y ) of those Lipschitz maps from a (complete pointed) metric space M to a Banach space Y which (strongly) attain their Lipschitz norm (i.e. the supremum defining the Lipschitz norm is a maximum). Extending previous results, we prove that this set is not norm dense when M is a length space (or local) or when M is a closed subset of R with positive Lebesgue measure, providing new examples which have very different topological properties than the previously known ones. On the other hand, we study the linear properties which are sufficient to get Lindenstrauss property A for the Lipschitz-free space F (M ) over M , and show that all of them actually provide the norm density of SNA(M, Y ) in the space of all Lipschitz maps from M to any Banach space Y . Next, we prove that SNA(M, R) is weakly sequentially dense in the space of all Lipschitz functions for all metric spaces M . Finally, we show that the norm of the bidual space of F (M ) is octahedral provided the metric space M is discrete but not uniformly discrete or M is infinite.J. Lindenstrauss extended such study to general linear operators, showed that this is not always possible, and also gave positive results. If we say that a Banach space X has (Lindenstrauss) property A when NA(X, Y ) = L(X, Y ) for every Banach space Y , it is shown in [36] that reflexive spaces have property A. This result was extended by J. Bourgain [9] showing that Banach spaces X with the RNP also have Lindenstrauss property A, and he also provided a somehow reciprocal result. We refer the interested reader to the survey paper [3] for a detailed account on norm attaining linear operators.
Let X be a real Banach space. A subset B of the dual unit sphere of X is said to be a boundary for X, if every element of X attains its norm on some functional in B. The well-known Boundary Problem originally posed by Godefroy asks whether a bounded subset of X which is compact in the topology of pointwise convergence on B is already weakly compact. This problem was recently solved by Pfitzner in the positive. In this note we collect some stronger versions of the solution to the Boundary Problem, most of which are restricted to special types of Banach spaces. We shall use the results and techniques of Pfitzner, Cascales et al., Moors and others.
The aim of this paper is to study Birkhoff integrability for multi-valued maps F : Ω → cwk(X), where (Ω, Σ, µ) is a complete finite measure space, X is a Banach space and cwk(X) is the family of all non-empty convex weakly compact subsets of X. It is shown that the Birkhoff integral of F can be computed as the limit for the Hausdorff distance in cwk(X) of a net of Riemann sums n µ(A n )F (t n ). We link Birkhoff integrability with Debreu integrability, a notion introduced to replace sums associated to correspondences when studying certain models in Mathematical Economics. We show that each Debreu integrable multi-valued function is Birkhoff integrable and that each Birkhoff integrable multi-valued function is Pettis integrable. The three previous notions coincide for finite dimensional Banach spaces and they are different even for bounded multi-valued functions when X is infinite dimensional and X * is assumed to be separable. We show that when F takes values in the family of all non-empty convex norm compact sets of a separable Banach space X, then F is Pettis integrable if, and only if, F is Birkhoff integrable; in particular, these Pettis integrable F 's can be seen as single-valued Pettis integrable functions with values in some other adequate Banach space. Incidentally, to handle some of the constructions needed we prove that if X is an Asplund Banach space, then cwk(X) is separable for the Hausdorff distance if, and only if, X is finite dimensional. 2004 Elsevier Inc.
