Grothendieck space

Grothendieck space

In mathematics, a Grothendieck space, named for Alexander Grothendieck, is a Banach space "X" such that for all separable Banach spaces "Y", every bounded linear operator from "X" to "Y" is weakly compact, that is, the image of a bounded subset of "X" is a weakly compact subset of "Y".

Every reflexive Banach space is a Grothendieck space. Grothendieck spaces which are not reflexive include the space "C"("K") of all continuous functions on a compact metric space "K" and the space L^infty(mu) for a positive measure mu.
