Abstract

One of the important problems of the local theory of Banach Spaces can be stated in the following way. We consider a condition on finite sets in normed spaces that makes sense for a finite set any cardinality. Suppose that the condition is such that to each set satisfying it there corresponds a constant describing “how well” the set satisfies the condition.The problem is:Suppose that a normed space X has a set of large cardinality satisfying the condition with “poor” constant. Does there exist in X a set of smaller cardinality satisfying the condition with a better constant?In the paper this problem is studied for conditions associated with one of R.C. James's characterisations of superreflexivity.
