- Description
- In this paper, we construct maximally monotone operators that are not of Gossez’s dense-type (D) in many nonreflexive spaces. Many of these operators also fail to possess the Brønsted-Rockafellar (BR) property. Using these operators, we show that the partial inf-convolution of two BC–functions will not always be a BC–function. This provides a negative answer to a challenging question posed by Stephen Simons. Among other consequences, we deduce—in a uniform fashion—that every Banach space which contains an isomorphic copy of the James space ensuremathJ or its dual ensuremathJ*, or c 0 or its dual ℓ¹, admits a non type (D) operator. The existence of non type (D) operators in spaces containing ℓ¹ or c 0 has been proved recently by Bueno and Svaiter.
