We present simple proofs that spaces of homogeneous polynomials on Lp[0, 1] and ℓp provide plenty of natural examples of Banach spaces without the approximation property. By giving necessary and sufficient conditions, our results bring to completion, at least for an important collection of Banach spaces, a circle of results begun in 1976 by R. Aron and M. Schottenloher (1976)., Seán Dineen, Jorge Mujica., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
We recall first Mather's Lemma providing effective necessary and sufficient conditions for a connected submanifold to be contained in an orbit. We show that two homogeneous polynomials having isomorphic Milnor algebras are right-equivalent.
