Abstract

We examine conditions under which a pair of rearrangement invariant function spaces on [0,1] or [0,∞) form a Calderón couple. A very general criterion is developed to determine whether such a pair is a Calderón couple, with numerous applications. We give, for example, a complete classification of those spaces X which form a Calderón couple with $L_∞.$ We specialize our results to Orlicz spaces and are able to give necessary and sufficient conditions on an Orlicz function F so that the pair $(L_F,L_∞)$ forms a Calderón pair.
