This paper studies approximation properties of linear sampling operators in general Banach lattices $X$. We obtain matching direct and inverse approximation estimates, convergence criteria, equivalence results involving special…

In this note we show that every Banach space $X$ not containing $\ell_1^n$ uniformly and with unconditional basis contains an arbitrarily distortable subspace.

Given a separable Banach space $E$, we construct an extremely non-complex Banach space (i.e. a space satisfying that $\|Id + T^2\|=1+\|T^2\|$ for every bounded linear operator $T$ on it) whose dual contains $E^*$ as an $L$-summand. We also…

We show that norms on certain Banach spaces $X$ can be approximated uniformly, and with arbitrary precision, on bounded subsets of $X$ by $C^{\infty}$ smooth norms and polyhedral norms. In particular, we show that this holds for any…

In these notes, we study the relation between uniform and coarse embeddings between Banach spaces. In order to understand this relation better, we also look at the problem of when a coarse embedding can be assumed to be topological. Among…

We establish an explicit characterisation of L\'evy measures on both $L^p$-spaces and UMD Banach spaces. In the case of $L^p$-spaces, L\'evy measures are characterised by an integrability condition, which directly generalises the known…

Given a metric space with bounded geometry, one may associate with it the $\ell^p$ uniform Roe algebra and the $\ell^p$ uniform algebra, both containing information about the large scale geometry of the metric space. We show that these two…

A recent result of Leung (Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, to appear) states that the Banach algebra $\mathscr{B}(X)$ of bounded, linear operators on the Banach space…

We study some aspects of countably additive vector measures with values in $\ell_\infty$ and the Banach lattices of real-valued functions that are integrable with respect to such a vector measure. On the one hand, we prove that if $W…

For any complex Banach space $X$ and each $p \in [1,\infty)$, we introduce the $p$-Bohr radius of order $N(\in \mathbb{N})$ is $\widetilde{R}_{p,N}(X)$ defined by $$ \widetilde{R}_{p,N}(X)=\sup \left\{r\geq 0: \sum_{k=0}^{N}\norm{x_k}^p…

The category $Ban$ of Banach spaces and linear maps of norm $\leq 1$ is locally $\aleph_1$-presentable but not locally finitely presentable. We prove, however, that $Ban$ is locally finitely presentable in the enriched sense over complete…

It is well known in convex analysis that proximal mappings on Hilbert spaces are $1$-Lipschitz. In the present paper we show that proximal mappings on uniformly convex Banach spaces are uniformly continuous on bounded sets. Moreover, we…

We prove that weakly unconditionally Cauchy (w.u.C.) series and unconditionally converging (u.c.) series are preserved under the action of polynomials or holomorphic functions on Banach spaces, with natural restrictions in the latter case.…

We characterise those Banach spaces $X$ which satisfy that $L(Y,X)$ is octahedral for every non-zero Banach space $Y$. They are those satisfying that, for every finite dimensional subspace $Z$, $\ell_\infty$ can be finitely-representable in…

See title. (A Banach space is said to be L-embedded if it is complemented in its bidual such that the norm between the two complementary subspaces is additive.)

We investigate the local preservation of Birkhoff-James orthogonality at a point by a linear operator on a finite-dimensional Banach space and illustrate its importance in understanding the action of the operator in terms of the geometry of…

We prove that the spaces $\ell_p$, $1<p<\infty, p\ne 2$, and all infinite-dimensional subspaces of their quotient spaces do not admit equivalent almost transitive renormings. This is a step towards the solution of the Banach-Mazur rotation…

We study several classical concepts in the topic of strict convexity of norms in infinite dimensional Banach spaces. Specifically, and in descending order of strength, we deal with Uniform Rotundity (UR), Weak Uniform Rotundity (WUR) and…

Certain previously known upper bounds on the moments of the norm of martingales in 2-smooth Banach spaces are improved. Some of these improvements hold even for sums of independent real-valued random variables. Applications to concentration…

A Banach symmetric space in the sense of O. Loos is a smooth Banach manifold $M$ endowed with a multiplication map $\mu\colon M \times M \to M$ such that each left multiplication map $\mu_x := \mu(x,\cdot)$ (with $x \in M$) is an involutive…
