New Results in Analysis of Orlicz-Lorentz spaces

Abstract

In this article, we investigate the existence of closed vector subspaces (i.e.spaceability) in various nonlinear subsets of Orlicz-Lorentz spaces $\Lambda_{\varphi,w}$, equipped with the Luxemburg norm. If a family of Orlicz functions $(\varphi_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ satisfies certain order relations with respect to a given Orlicz function $\varphi$, the subset of the order-continuous subspace $(\Lambda_{\varphi,w})_a$ whose elements do not belong to $\bigcup_{n=1}^{\infty}\Lambda_{\varphi_n,w}$ is spaceable, and even maximal-spaceable when $\varphi$ satisfies the $\Delta_2$-condition. We also show that this subset is either residual or empty. In addition, sufficient conditions for this subset not being $(\alpha, \beta)$-spaceable are provided. A similar analysis is also performed on the subset $\Lambda_{\varphi,w} \setminus (\Lambda_{\varphi,w})_a$ when $\varphi$ does not satisfy the $\Delta_2$-condition. The comparison between different Orlicz-Lorentz spaces is characterized via the generating pairs $(\varphi,w)$. For a fixed Orlicz function that satisfies the $\Delta_2^{\infty}$-condition, we provide a characterization of disjointly strictly singular inclusion operators between Orlicz-Lorentz spaces with different weights. As a consequence, there are certain subsets of Orlicz-Lorentz spaces on $[0,1]$ for which lineability problem is not valid. Moreover, various types of $(\alpha,\beta)$-lineability and pointwise lineability properties on other nonlinear subsets of Orlicz-Lorentz spaces are examined. These results extend a number of previously known results in Orlicz and Lorentz spaces.
