Abstract
We prove that for a complex Banach spaceA the following properties are equivalent:
-
i)
A * is isometric to anL 1(μ)-space;
-
ii)
every family of 4 balls inA with the weak intersection property has a non-empty intersection;
-
iii)
every family of 4 balls inA such that any 3 of them have a non-empty intersection, has a non-empty intersection.
