Abstract

In this paper, we study octahedral norms in free Banach lattices FBL[E] generated by a Banach space E. We prove that if E is an \(L_1(\mu )\)-space, a predual of von Neumann algebra, a predual of a JBW\(^*\)-triple, the dual of an M-embedded Banach space, the disc algebra or the projective tensor product under some hypothesis, then the norm of FBL[E] is octahedral. We get the analogous result when the topological dual \(E^*\) of E is almost square. We finish the paper by proving that the norm of the free Banach lattice generated by a Banach space of dimension \( \ge 2\) is nowhere Fréchet differentiable. Moreover, we discuss some open problems on this topic.
