WEIGHTED COMPOSITION OPERATORS ON NACHBIN SPACES WITH OPERATOR-VALUED WEIGHTS

WEIGHTED COMPOSITION OPERATORS ON NACHBIN SPACES WITH OPERATOR-VALUED WEIGHTS

Let A be a normed space, ${\mathcal{B}}(A)$ the algebra of all bounded operators on A, and V a family of strongly upper semicontinuous functions from a Hausdorff completely regular space X into ${\mathcal{B}}(A)$. In this paper, we investigate some properties of the weighted spaces CV (X, A) of all A-valued continuous functions f on X such that the mapping $x{\mapsto}v(x)(f(x))$ is bounded on X, for every $v{\in}V$, endowed with the topology generated by the seminorms ${\parallel}f{\parallel}v={\sup}\{{\parallel}v(x)(f(x)){\parallel},\;x{\in}X\}$. Our main purpose is to characterize continuous, bounded, and locally equicontinuous weighted composition operators between such spaces.
