“…Recall that an operator T : X ⟶ F is called almost Lweakly compact if T maps relatively weakly compact subsets of X onto L-weakly compact subsets of F, and an operator T : E ⟶ Y is called almost M-weakly compact if for each disjoint sequence ðx n Þ in B E and for each weakly convergent sequence ð f n Þ in Y ′ , we have f n ðTx n Þ ⟶ 0. Every L-weakly (resp., M-weakly) compact operator is almost L-weakly (resp., almost M-weakly) compact, but the converse is not true in general [11]. For example, the identity operator I : ℓ 1 ⟶ ℓ 1 is almost L-weakly compact but not L-weakly compact, and the identity operator I : ℓ ∞ ⟶ ℓ ∞ is almost M-weakly compact but not M-weakly compact ( [11], p. 1435).…”
