Abstract

The vector space £b(E) of all order bounded linear operators on a Dedekind complete Riesz space E is both a Riesz space and an algebra. This note investigates the degree of compatibility between the algebraic and lattice structures of £b(E). Two of the main results are the following:

  1. 1.

    An operator on a Banach lattice with an order continuous norm factors through the lattice operations if and only if it is an interval preserving Riesz homotnorphism.

  2. 2.

    A Dedekind complete Banach lattice E has an order continuous norm if and only if 0≤Tn ↑ T in £b(E) implies T 2n ↑ T2.
