Abstract
Let E and F be vector lattices and \({\mathcal L}^r(E,F)\) the ordered space of all regular operators, which turns out to be a (Dedekind complete) vector lattice if F is Dedekind complete. We show that every lattice isomorphism from E onto F is a finite element in \({\mathcal L}^r(E,F)\) , and that if E is an AL-space and F is a Dedekind complete AM-space with an order unit, then each regular operator is a finite element in \({\mathcal L}^r(E,F)\) . We also investigate the finiteness of finite rank operators in Banach lattices. In particular, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for rank one operators to be finite elements in the vector lattice \({\mathcal L}^r(E,F)\) .
