Absolute and Unconditional Convergence in Normed Linear Spaces

Extract
In 1933 Orlicz proved various results concerning unconditional convergence in Banach spaces (4), which were noted by Banach ((l), p. 240) who remarked that absolute and unconditional convergence are equivalent in finite dimensional Banach spaces, but that whether or not the two are non-equivalent in all infinite dimensional spaces was still an open question. MacPhail (3) gave a criterion for the equivalence of the two notions of convergence in a general Banach space and used it to prove non-equivalence in the spaces l1 and L1. In 1950 Dvoretzky and Rogers demonstrated the non-equivalence of the two types of convergence in any infinite dimensional normed linear space, using an elegant and instructive geometrical approach (2). The result has also been proved by a different method by Grothendieck (5).
