The interest of these authors lies in explicit, canonical-form characterizations of isometries on Banach spaces, and in this monograph, they explore the topic in the context of classical function spaces. Designed for both experts and beginners in the field, their treatment presents...

Fundamental to the study of any mathematical structure is an understanding of its symmetries. In the class of Banach spaces, this leads naturally to a study of isometries-the linear transformations that preserve distances. In his foundational treatise, Banach showed that every...
