Abstract
We introduce and study equivariant versions of the Radon-Nikodým property for Banach spaces, together with the closely related notions such as dentability, the Bishop-Phelps and Krein-Milman properties, and Lindenstrauss' property A, all considered in the presence of a continuous group action by linear isometries. While in the classical setting the Radon-Nikodým property, the Bishop-Phelps property and dentability are equivalent, the equivariant situation turns out to depend essentially on the acting group and requires nontrivial tools from abstract harmonic analysis and representation theory. We establish several implications among the equivariant counterparts of these properties. Namely, for a compact group $G$, the $G$-Bishop-Phelps property implies strong $G$-dentability, which in turn implies the $G$-Krein-Milman property. Moreover, for a locally compact, $σ$-compact, separable group $G$, weak $G$-dentability is equivalent to the $G$-Radon-Nikodým property.
