Abstract

In his study of the Radon-Nikodým property of Banach spaces, Bourgain showed (among other things) that in any closed, bounded, convex set A that is nondentable, one can find a separated, weakly closed bush. In this note, we prove a generalization of Bourgain’s result: in any bounded, nondentable set A (not necessarily closed or convex) one can find a separated, weakly closed approximate bush. Similarly, we obtain as corollaries the existence of A-valued quasimartingales with sharply divergent behavior.
