Summability and duality

We formalize the observation that the same summability methods converge in a Banach space X and its dual X∗. At the same time we determine conditions under which these methods converge in weak and weak* topologies on X and X∗ respectively. We also derive a general limitation theorem, which yields a...

Description
Summary:We formalize the observation that the same summability methods converge in a Banach space X and its dual X∗. At the same time we determine conditions under which these methods converge in weak and weak* topologies on X and X∗ respectively. We also derive a general limitation theorem, which yields a necessary condition for the convergence of a summability method in X. These results are then illustrated by applications to a wide variety of function spaces, including spaces of continuous functions, Lebesgue spaces, the disk algebra, Hardy and Bergman spaces, the BMOA space, the Bloch space, and de Branges-Rovnyak spaces. Our approach shows that all these applications flow from just two abstract theorems.
