Abstract

The notion of the Orlicz space is generalized to spaces of Banach-space valued functions. A well-known generalization is based on N-functions of a real variable. We consider a more general setting based on spaces generated by convex functions defined on a Banach space. We investigate structural properties of these spaces, such as the role of the delta-growth conditions, separability, the closure of \(\mathcal{L}^\infty\), and representations of the dual space.
