We provide a generalization of two results of Knaust and Odell. We prove that if
is a Banach
space and
is a right dominant Schauder basis such that every normalized, weakly null sequence
in
admits a subsequence dominated by a subsequence of
, then there
exists a constant
such that every normalized, weakly null sequence in
admits a subsequence
-dominated by a
subsequence of
.
We also prove that if every spreading model generated by a normalized, weakly null
sequence in
is dominated by some spreading model generated by a subsequence of
, then there
exists
such that every spreading model generated by a normalized, weakly null sequence
in
is
-dominated
by every spreading model generated by a subsequence of
. We also prove
a single, ordinal-quantified result which unifies and interpolates between these two results.
