Abstract: | By a well-known result of Grothendieck, a Banach space X has the approximation property if and only if, for every Banach space Y, every weak∗-weak continuous compact operator T:X∗→Y can be uniformly approximated by finite rank operators from X⊗Y. We prove the following “metric” version of this criterion: X has the approximation property if and only if, for every Banach space Y, every weak∗-weak continuous weakly compact operator T:X∗→Y can be approximated in the strong operator topology by operators of norm ?‖T‖ from X⊗Y. As application, easier alternative proofs are given for recent criteria of approximation property due to Lima, Nygaard and Oja. |
