Bases and Basic Sequences -- The classical sequence spaces -- Special types of bases -- Spaces of continuous functions -- L_1(mu)-spaces and C(K)-spaces -- L_p(mu)-spaces, 1 leq p <infty -- Factorization Theory -- Absolutely Summing Operators -- Symmetric Bases and Greedy Bases -- Ramsey methods -- Ultraproducts
Summary
In this book the authors emphasise the isomorpic theory of Banach spaces and techniques using the unifying viewpoint of basic sequences. The book is suitable for a semester-long graduate course and it will become a standard reference and textbook in the area
