Preduals of spaces of homogeneous polynomials on Lp -spaces.

Given a regular probability measure μ on a compact Hausdorff space, we explicitly describe the predual of the Banach space of continuous n-homogeneous polynomials on L p (μ) as the completion of a (explicit constructed) subspace of L p/n (μ) with respect to a (explicitly constructed) norm π p/n . An application to the factorization of dominated polynomials is provided. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
