Injective absolutely summing operators

Abstract

Let X be an infinite-dimensional Banach space. It is well-known that the space of X-valued, Pettis integrable functions is not always complete with respect to the topology of convergence in mean, that is, the uniform convergence of indefinite integrals (see [14]). The Archimedes integral introduced in [9] does not suffer from this defect. For the Archimedes integral, functions to be integrated are allowed to take values in a locally convex space Y larger than the space X while X accommodates the values of indefinite integrals. Moreover, there exists a locally convex space Y, into which X is continuously embedded, such that the space ℒ(μX, Y) of Y-valued, Archimedes integrable functions is identical to the completion of the space of X valued, simple functions with repect to the toplogy of convergence in mean, for each non-negative measure μ (see [9]).
