Decomposition Methods in Banach Spaces via Supplemented Subspaces Resembling Pełczyński’s Decomposition Methods

Abstract

Suppose that X and Y are Banach spaces complemented in each other with supplemented subspaces A and B. In 1996, W. T. Gowers solved the Schroeder–Bernstein problem for Banach spaces by showing that X is not necessarily isomorphic to Y. In this paper, we obtain some suitable conditions involving the spaces A and B to yield that X is isomorphic to Y or to provide that at least X m is isomorphic to Y n for some m, n ∈ IN*. So we get some decomposition methods in Banach spaces via supplemented subspaces resembling Pelczynski’s decomposition methods. In order to do this, we introduce several notions of Schroeder–Bernstein Quadruples acting on the spaces X, Y, A and B. Thus, we characterize them by using some Banach spaces recently constructed.
