Disjointly homogeneous Orlicz spaces revisited

Abstract

Let $1\le p\le \infty$. A Banach lattice $X$ is said to be $p$-disjointly homogeneous or $(p-DH)$ (resp. restricted $(p-DH)$) if every normalized disjoint sequence in $X$ (resp. every normalized sequence of characteristic functions of disjoint subsets) contains a subsequence equivalent in $X$ to the unit vector basis of ${\ell }_p$. We revisit $DH$-properties of Orlicz spaces and refine some previous results of this topic, showing that $(p-DH)$-property is not stable in the class of Orlicz spaces and the classes of restricted $(p-DH)$ and $(p-DH)$ Orlicz spaces are different. Moreover, we give a characterization of uniform $(p-DH)$ Orlicz spaces and establish also closed connections between this property and the duality of $DH$-property.
