Operators on injective tensor products of L1-preduals

Abstract

Let X be an L1-predual and E,F be Banach spaces. We use the fact that an unconditionally converging operator T from the injective tensor product of X and E to F is strongly bounded and extend T to an operator S on continuous F-valued functions on the dual unit ball of X with the preservation of properties of T. This procedure provides a unified approach for proving properties of the tensor product of X and E based on the properties of E.
