Description The three chapters of this book are entitled Basic Concepts, Tensor Norms, and Special Topics. The first may serve as part of an introductory
course in Functional Analysis since it shows the powerful use of the projective and injective tensor norms, as well as the basics of
the theory of operator ideals. The second chapter is the main part of the book: it presents the theory of tensor norms as designed by
Grothendieck in the Resumé and deals with the relation between tensor norms and operator ideals. The last chapter deals
with special questions. Each section is accompanied by a series of exercises.
