On the reflexivity properties of Banach bundles and Banach modules

Abstract

In this paper we investigate some reflexivity-type properties of separable measurable Banach bundles over a $\sigma$-finite measure space. Our two main results are the following: - The fibers of a bundle are uniformly convex (with a common modulus of convexity) if and only if the space of its $L^p$-sections is uniformly convex for every $p\in(1,\infty)$. - The fibers of a bundle are reflexive if and only if the space of its $L^p$-sections is reflexive. These results generalise the well-known corresponding ones for Lebesgue-Bochner spaces.
