Abstract
In this chapter, we begin our study of Orlicz functions Φ and corresponding Orlicz spaces L Φ . We prove that \((\mathbf{L}_{\varPhi },\|\cdot \|_{\mathbf{L}_{\varPhi }})\) is a maximal symmetric space, find the fundamental functions \(\varphi _{\mathbf{L}_{ \varPhi }}\) of L Φ , and consider several simple examples.
