Almost Limited Sets in Banach Lattices

We introduce and study the class of almost limited sets in Banach lattices, that is, sets on which every disjoint weak$^{*}$ null sequence of functionals converges uniformly to zero. It is established that a Banach lattice has order continuous norm if and only if almost limited sets and $L$-weakly compact sets coincide. In particular, in terms of almost Dunford-Pettis operators into $c_{0}$, we give an operator characterization of those $σ$-Dedekind complete Banach lattices whose relatively weakly compact sets are almost limited, that is, for a $σ$-Dedekind Banach lattice $E$, every relatively weakly compact set in $E$ is almost limited if and only if every continuous linear operator $T:E\rightarrow c_{0}$ is an almost Dunford-Pettis operator.
