Is is known that a Banach space contains an isomorphic copy of c0 if, and only if, it can be equivalently renormed to be almost square. We introduce and study transfinite versions of almost square Banach spaces with the purpose of relating them to the containment of isomorphic copies of c0(κ), where κ is some uncountable cardinal. We also provide several examples and stability results for the above properties by taking direct sums, tensor products and ultraproducts. By connecting the above properties with transfinite analogues of the strong diameter 2 property and octahedral norms, we obtain a solution to an open question of Ciaci et al. [Israel J. Math. (online, 2022)].
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
