On Positive Injective Tensor Products Being Grothendieck Spaces

Abstract

Let λ be a reflexive Banach sequence lattice and X be a Banach lattice. In this paper, we show that the positive injective tensor product $$\lambda {\mathord{\buildrel{\lower3pt\hbox{$\scriptscriptstyle\smile$}}\over \otimes } _{\left| \varepsilon \right|}}X$$ is a Grothendieck space if and only if X is a Grothendieck space and every positive linear operator from λ* to X** is compact.
