We study the subsymmetric basic sequence structure of variable exponent Lebesgue spaces L P built from index functions P : (0, ] on -finite m easure s paces (, , ).Specifically, we prove that if P is bounded away from infinity, t hen a ny complemented subsymmetric basic sequence of L P is equivalent to the canonical basis of r for some r 1 in the essential range of P .The paper that initiated the study of variable exponent Lebesgue spaces by basic sequence techniques was 11 (see also 10).In it, the authors characterized in terms of the essential range of the variable exponent P the indices q [1, ) such that q isomorphically embeds
BARASOAIN et al. (Thu,) studied this question.
