For ,
the Rademacher cotype-
constant
of a bounded operator
between Banach spaces
is the least constant such that
where the inequality holds for every finite sequence in
and the
are independent random variables taking the values
and 1 with equal probability. The operator
has Rademacher cotype
when
is finite. The Rademacher cotype of a Banach
space
is the Rademacher cotype of its identity operator.
