Extract

A Banach space X is said to have the Banach–Saks property (BS) if every bounded sequence (xn) in X has a subsequence (), which is (C, 1) convergent in norm to a point x in X; that is,

Kakutani (7) showed that all uniformly convex spaces are (BS); moreover, all (BS) spaces are reflexive. It is further known that both these implicationsare strict: see, for example, Baernstein (1) and Diestel (4).
