Abstract

Let 2<p<∞. The Banach space spanned by a sequence of independent random variables inL p, each of mean zero, is shown to be isomorphic tol 2,l p,l 2l p, or a new spaceX p , and the linear topological properties ofX p are investigated. It is proved thatX p is isomorphic to a complemented subspace ofL p and another uncomplemented subspace ofL p, whence there exists an uncomplemented subspace ofl p isomorphic tol p. It is also proved thatX p is not isomorphic to the previously known p spaces.
