Large sublattices in subsets of Banach lattices

摘要

A classical problem (initially studied by N. Kalton and A. Wilansky) concerns finding closed infinite dimensional subspaces of X / Y, where Y is a subspace of a Banach space X. We study the Banach lattice analogue of this question. For a Banach lattice X, we prove that X / Y contains a closed infinite dimensional sublattice under the following conditions: either (i) Y is a closed infinite codimensional subspace of X, and X is either order continuous or a C(K) space, where K is a compact subset of ; or (ii) Y is the range of a compact operator.
