Asymptotically isometric copies of $\ell^{1\boxplus 0}$

Asymptotically isometric copies of $\ell^{1\boxplus 0}$

Using James' Distortion Theorems, researchers have inquired relations between spaces containing nice copies of $c_0$ or $\ell^1$ and the failure of the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings especially after the fact that every classical nonreflexive Banach space contains an isometric copy of either $\ell^1$ or $c_0$. For instance, finding asymptotically isometric (ai) copies of $\ell^1$ or $c_0$ inside a Banach space reveals the space's failure of the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings. There has been many researches done using these tools developed by James and followed by Dowling, Lennard, and Turett mainly to see if a Banach space can be renormed to have the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings when there is failure.In this paper, we introduce the concept of Banach spaces containing ai copies of $\ell^{1\boxplus 0}$ and give alternative methods of detecting them. We show the relationsbetween spaces containing these copies and the failure of the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings. Finally, we give some remarks and examples pointing our vital result: if a Banach space contains an ai copy of $\ell^{1\boxplus 0}$, then it contains an ai copy of $\ell^1$ but the converse does not hold.
