Let K be a simplex and let A 0 ( K ) denote the space of continuous affine functions on K vanishing at a fixed extreme point, denoted by 0. We prove that if any extreme operator T from a Banach space X to A 0 ( K ) is a nice operator (that is, T ⁎ , the adjoint of T, preserves extreme points), then the facial topology of the set of extreme points different from 0 is discrete, and so A 0 ( K ) is isometrically isomorphic to c 0 ( I ) for some set I. From here we derive the corresponding result for A ( K ) , namely, if K is a simplex such that each extreme operator from any Banach space to A ( K ) is a nice operator, then the set of extreme points of K is finite. |
