Abstract

We show that the Lipschitz-free space F(X) over a superreflexive Banach space X has the property that every weakly precompact subset of F(X) is relatively super weakly compact, showing that this space "behaves like L₁" in this context. As consequences we show that F(X) enjoys the weak Banach-Saks property and that every subspace of F(X) with nontrivial type is superreflexive. Further, weakly compact subsets of F(X) are super weakly compact and hence have many strong properties. To prove the result, we use a modification of the proof of weak sequential completeness of F(X) by Kochanek and Pernecká and an appropriate version of compact reduction in the spirit of Aliaga, Noûs, Petitjean and Procházka.
