We introduce a measure of deviation from the Banach-Saks property for bounded subsets of Banach spaces. The measure is based on the arithmetic separation of a sequence, which is a close counterpart of James鈥?condition of weak noncompactness. We apply this measure to the polygon interpolation method for bounded linear operators on Banach -tuples. In particular, we show distributions of operators with the Banach-Saks property among the polygon vertices, which imply this property for all interpolated operators. We establish similar results for a measure of deviation from the alternate signs Banach-Saks property.
