We explore the diversity of subsymmetric basic sequences in spaces with a subsymmetric basis. We prove that the subsymmetrization $Su(T^*)$ of Tsirelson's original Banach space provides the first known example of a space with a unique…

We study some questions concerning the structure of the set of spreading models of a separable infinite-dimensional Banach space $X$. In particular we give an example of a reflexive $X$ so that all spreading models of $X$ contain $\ell_1$…

A survey is given of the work on strong regularity for uniform algebras over the last thirty years, and some new results are proved, including the following. Let A be a uniform algebra on a compact space X and let E be the set of all those…

We use the repeated averages hierarchy to prove a Ramsey theorem regarding uniform upper estimates of convex block sequences of weakly null sequences. The base case of the theorem recovers a result of Freeman.

We prove that there exist Banach spaces not containing $\ell_1$, failing the point of continuity property and satisfying that every semi-normalized basic sequence has a boundedly complete basic subsequence. This answers in the negative the…

The Erberlein-Smulian Theorem asserts that for complete normed spaces, that is Banach spaces, a subset is weak compact if and only if it is weak sequentially compact. In this paper it is shown that the completeness of the normed space is…

Let $X$ be a Banach space with separable dual. It is proved that for every $\varepsilon\in (0,1)$, $X$ embeds isometrically into a Banach space $W$ with a shrinking basis $(w_n)$ which is $(1+ \varepsilon)$-monotone. Moreover, if $X$ has…

Given a Schauder basic sequence $(x_k)$ in a Banach lattice, we say that $(x_k)$ is bibasic if the expansion of every vector in $[x_k]$ converges not only in norm, but also in order. We prove that, in this definition, order convergence may…

For $0\leqslant \xi\leqslant \omega_1$, we define the notion of $\xi$-weakly precompact and $\xi$-weakly compact sets in Banach spaces and prove that a set is $\xi$-weakly precompact if and only if its weak closure is $\xi$-weakly compact.…

In this paper, we introduce the notions uniformly p-convergent sets and weakly p-sequentially continuous differentiable mappings. Then we obtain a sufficient condition for those Banach spaces which either contain no copy of $\ell_1$ or have…

In this paper, we investigate more about relationship between $uaw$ -convergence (resp. $un$-convergence) and the weak convergence. More precisely, we characterize Banach lattices on which every weak null sequence is $uaw$-null. Also, we…

We study Banach spaces satisfying some geometric or structural properties involving tightness of transfinite sequences of nested linear subspaces. These properties are much weaker than WCG and closely related to Corson's property (C). Given…

Let $\{X, X_n, n\geq 1\}$ be a sequence of independent identically distributed non-degenerate random variables. Put $S_0=0, S_n = \sum^n_{i=1} X_i$ and $V_n^2=\sum^n_{i=1} X_i^2, n\ge 1.$ A weak convergence theorem is established for the…

We consider a bounded linear operator $T$ on a complex Banach space $X$ and show that its spectral radius $r(T)$ satisfies $r(T) < 1$ if all sequences $(< x',T^nx>)_{n \in \mathbb{N}_0}$ ($x \in X$, $x' \in X'$) are, up to a certain…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be separable Banach spaces. Suppose $Y$ either has a shrinking basis or $Y$ is isomorphic to $C(2^\mathbb{N})$ and $A$ is a subset of weakly compact operators from $X$ to $Y$ which is analytic in the strong operator…

If $f$ is a real valued weakly lower semi-continous function on a Banach space $X$ and $C$ a weakly compact subset of $X$, we show that the set of $x \in X$ such that $z \mapsto \|x-z\|-f(z)$ attains its supremum on $C$ is dense in $X$. We…

~This paper presents a general result that allows for establishing a link between the Kolmogorov-Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund strong law of large numbers and Feller's strong law of large numbers in a Banach space setting. Let $\{X, X_{n}; n \geq…

A remarkable theorem of R. C. James is the following: suppose that $X$ is a Banach space and $C \subseteq X$ is a norm bounded, closed and convex set such that every linear functional $x^* \in X^*$ attains its supremum on $C$; then $C$ is a…

Let $X$ be an infinite dimensional uniformly smooth Banach space. We prove that $X$ contains an infinite equilateral set. That is, there exists a constant $\lambda>0$ and an infinite sequence $(x_i)_{i=1}^\infty\subset X$ such that…

Let S be a dense sub-semigroup of the positive real numbers, and let X be a separable, reflexive Banach space. This note contains a proof that every weakly continuous contractive semigroup of operators on X over S can be extended to a…
