Abstract
Disjoint sequence methods from the theory of Riesz spaces are used to study compact operators on Banach lattices. A principal new result of the paper is that each positive map from a Banach latticeE to a Banach latticeF with compact majorant is itself compact provided the norms onE′ andF are order continuous.
