Abstract: The notion of p-compact sets arises naturally from Grothendieckʼs characterization of compact sets as those contained in the convex hull of a norm null sequence. The definition, due to Sinha and Karn (2002), leads to the concepts of p-approximation property and p-compact operators (which form an ideal with its ideal norm ). This paper examines the interaction between the p-approximation property and certain space of holomorphic functions, the p-compact analytic functions. In order to understand these functions we define a p-compact radius of convergence which allows us to give a characterization of the functions in the class. We show that p-compact holomorphic functions behave more like nuclear than compact maps. We use the ϵ-product of Schwartz, to characterize the p-approximation property of a Banach space in terms of p-compact homogeneous polynomials and in terms of p-compact holomorphic functions with range on the space. Finally, we show that p-compact holomorphic functions fit into the framework of holomorphy types which allows us to inspect the -approximation property. Our approach also allows us to solve several questions posed by Aron, Maestre and Rueda (2010). [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
