Trees, linear orders and gâteaux smooth norms

We introduce a linearly ordered set Z and use it to prove a necessity condition for the existence of a Gâteaux smooth norm on
0(
), where
is a tree. This criterion is directly analogous to the corresponding equivalent condition for Fréchet smooth norms. In addition, we prove that if
0(
) admits a Gâteaux smooth lattice norm then it also admits a lattice norm with strictly convex dual norm.
