Y ). Emmanuele and John showed that if c 0 ֒→ K(X, Y ), then K(X, Y ) is uncomplemented in L(X, Y ). Bator and Lewis showed that if X is not a Grothendieck space and c X, Y ). In this paper, classical results of Kalton and separably determined operator ideals with property ( * ) are used to obtain complementation results that yield these theorems as corollaries.
