W^*-derived sets of transfinite order of subspaces of dual Banach spaces

Abstract

It is an English translation of the paper originally published in Russian and Ukrainian in 1987. In the appendix of his book S.Banach introduced the following definition Let $X$ be a Banach space and $\Gamma$ be a subspace of the dual space $X^{\ast }$. The set of all limits of $w^{\ast }$-convergent sequences in $\Gamma$ is called the $w^{\ast }${\it -derived set} of $\Gamma$ and is denoted by ${\Gamma }_{(1)}$. For an ordinal $\alpha$ the $w^{\ast }$-{\it derived set of order} $\alpha$ is defined inductively by the equality: $${\Gamma }_{(\alpha )}=\bigcup _{\beta <\alpha }(({\Gamma }_{(\beta )}{)}_{(1)}.$$
