ABSTRACT

Let X^ and

be two Banach spaces contained in a linear

Hausdorff space Y such that the identity mapping of X^(i=l,2)

in Y is continuous. Denote the elements of X^ by f^ and

their norms by IlfII^ . The spaces X^ O

and X^ +

are

Banach spaces under the norms ^ ^ Xj_OX2 = m3X ^ ^ 1 * ^ ^ 2 ^

Let (A,E,p) be a totally o-finite measure space and let

M(A) be the set of all complex-valued y-measurable functions on

A . Then M(A) is a linear Hausdorff space under convergence in

measure on sets of finite measure. This dissertation is concerned

with determining whether certain classes of norraed Kbthe spaces

(Banach function spaces) are intermediate spaces of L^ = L^(y)

and

L * L (p) .

associate Orlicz spaces and that for every non-trivial Young's

function T there is an equivalent Young's function T' such

that the Orlicz space L ^ , is an intermediate space of L^ and

L^ . The concept of universal function norm is introduced and

it is proven that p is induced by a universal function norm if

and only if

p isa universally rearrangement invariant function iv

Kdthe space is presented and it is proven that a KSthe space is

universal if and only if it is universally rearrangement invariant.

It is proven that if A is a universal Kothe space then

CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION

Statement of the Problem. Let X^ and X 2 be two Banach

spaces contained in a linear Hausdroff space Y such that the in­

jection of X^ (i * 1,2) into Yis continuous. Denote the norm of

by || ||^. The space X^ H X2 is the set of all elements which

are in both X^ and X 2 , and the space X^ + X 2 is the set of all

f e Y of the form f ■ f^ + f2 with f^ e X^ and

e X2 . It is

known that thespaces X^ O X2 and X^ + X2

are Banach spaces under

the norms ||f|fx p x “ maxt ||f • ||f|(2 > and ||fffx + x =

inf{||f1||1 + ||f2II2 : f - £x + f2 , £t e 3.2.1]).

Definition 1.1: A Banach space X C Y satisfying

and

is called an intermediate space of X^ and X2 . Much work has been done on intermediate spaces and the related
topic of interpolation theory. (See [1], [2], [16].) In particular, 1
