Synopsis

Let X, Y and Z be Banach spaces, and let Πp (Y, Z) (1 ≦ p < ∞) denote the space of p-summing operators from Y to Z. We show that, if X is a ℒ-space, then a bounded linear operator is 1-summing if and only if a naturally associated operator T#: X → Πl (Y, Z) is 1-summing. This result need not be true if X is not a ℒ-space. For p > 1, several examples are given with X = C[0, 1] to show that T# can be p-summing without T being p-summing. Indeed, there is an operator T on whose associated operator T# is 2-summing, but for all NN, there exists an N-dimensional subspace U of such that T restricted to U is equivalent to the identity operator on . Finally, we show that there is a compact Hausdorff space K and a bounded linear operator for which T#: C(K) → Π1 (l1, l2) is not 2-summing.
