Banach space properties sufficient for normal structure

In this paper we establish lower bounds for the weakly convergent sequence coefficient WCS(X) of a Banach space X, in terms of some well known moduli and coefficients. By mean of these bounds we identify several properties, of geometrical nature, which imply normal structure. We show that these properties are strictly more general than other previously known sufficient conditions for normal structure. © 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved
