Abstract

The skewness of Banach spaces was introduced by Fitzpatrick–Reznick. In this paper, we compute the skewness \(s(\ell _p-\ell _1)\) of Day–James spaces \(\ell _p-\ell _1\), where \(1< p < \infty\). This gives that the inequality \(s(X)\le 2 \rho _X(1)\) is strict for such space X, where \(\rho _X\) is the modulus of smoothness of X.
