Classical Banach Spaces I and II: Sequence Spaces and Function Spaces (Classics in Mathematics)

Springer-Verlag began publishing books in higher mathematics in 1920, when the seriesGrundlehren der mathematischen Wissenschaften, initially conceived as a series of advanced textbooks, was founded by Richard Courant. A few years later a new series Ergebnisse der Mathematik und ihrer Grenzgebiete, survey reports of recent mathematical research, was added.

Of over 400 books published in these series, many have become recognized classics and remain standard references for their subject. Springer is reissuing a selected few of these highly successful books in a new, inexpensive sofcover edition to make them easily accessible to younger generations of students and researchers.

Classical Banach Spaces I and II

From the reviews: “...the book is written in the best tradition of the beautiful  series in which it appears. The material it presents is hard to find in other books. For people working in the structure theory of Banach spaces it will be most valuable as a source of references and inspiration. For those who wish to learn the subject the book deserves a warm welcome too.”
Medelingen van het Wiskundig Genootschap

“…The geometry of Banach lattices is a rich, beautiful, … and rewarding subject. The proof is in the reading and perusing of the masterpiece.”

Biography of Joram LindenstraussJoram Lindenstrauss was born in Tel Aviv on October 28, 1936. He studied at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, where he received his doctoral degree in 1962. He has been on the faculty of this institution ever since 1965.Lindenstrauss works in various areas of functional analysis and geometry. Besides structure theory of Banach spaces, which is the subject of this book, he has contributed prominently to the theory of convex sets in finite and infinite dimensions and togeometric nonlinear functional analysis. Biography of Lior TzafririLior Tzafriri was born in Bucharest on May 9, 1936. He began his studies in Romania but completed them only in Jerusalem after emigrating to Israel in 1961. He received his doctoral degree from the Hebrew University in Jerusalem in 1966 and has been on the faculty of this institution ever since 1970.Tzafriri's work reaches into various areas of functional analysis. Besides his influential work on the geometry of Banach spaces, he has made important contributions to operator theory and to problems in harmonic analysis.
