Description
Summary:Let X be a Banach space and let ([], A, P) be the probability space with [] = {-1, 1}N , A the Borel []-algebra, and P the Haar measure on []. If the space of X-valued strongly-measurable Bochner-integrable functions Lr([], X), 1 < r [], has an equivalent asymptotically uniformly convex norm of power type p then X admits a uniformly convex renorming of power type. Using A. M. Davie's construction of a subspace of lp, p > 2, without the approximation property, it is shown that there exists an asymptotically Hilbertian space E which is 'almost' a weak Hilbert space and that fails the approximation property. In addition, the space E is a subspace of a space with an unconditional basis and can be written as the direct sum of two subspaces all of whose subspaces have the approximation property.
