Let X be an L_1-predual space and let K be a countable linearly independent subset of the extreme points of its closed dual ball. It is shown that if the norm-closed linear span Y of K is w^*-closed in X^*, then Y is the range of a…

We prove the first theorem on projections on general noncommutative $\mathrm{L}^p$-spaces associated with non-type I von Neumann algebras where $1 \leqslant p < \infty$. This is the first progress on this topic since the seminal work of…

Parallel to the study of finite dimensional Banach spaces, there is a growing interest in the corresponding local theory of operator spaces. We define a family of Hilbertian operator spaces H_n^k,0< k < n+1, generalizing the row and column…

In this note we include two remarks about bounded ($\underline{not}$ necessarily contractive) linear projections on a von Neumann-algebra. We show that if $M$ is a von Neumann-subalgebra of $B(H)$ which is complemented in B(H) and…

Through the establishment of several extension theorems, we provide explicit expressions for all contractive projections and 1-complemented subspaces in the Hardy space $H^p(\mathbb{T})$ for $1\leq p<\infty$, $p\neq 2$. Our characterization…

We continue our investigation of contractive projections on noncommutative $\mathrm{L}^p$-spaces where $1 < p < \infty$ started in \cite{ArR19}. We improve the results of \cite{ArR19} and we characterize precisely the positive contractive…

We construct some separable infinite dimensional homogeneous Hilbertian operator spaces which generalize the row and column spaces R and C. We show that separable infinite-dimensional Hilbertian JC*-triples are completely isometric to an…

We study contractive projections, isometries, and real positive maps on algebras of operators on a Hilbert space. For example we find generalizations and variants of certain classical results on contractive projections on C*-algebras and…

Let L_1 be the predual of a von Neumann algebra with a finite faithful normal trace. We show that a bounded sequence in L_1 converges to 0 in measure if and only if each of its subsequences admits another subsequence which converges to 0 in…

A contractive condition is addressed for extended 2-cyclic self-mappings on the union of a finite number of subsets of a metric space which are allowed to have a finite number of successive images in the same subsets of its domain. It is…

Continuing the study of preduals of spaces $\mathcal{L}(H,Y)$ of bounded, linear maps, we consider the situation that $H$ is a Hilbert space. We establish a natural correspondence between isometric preduals of $\mathcal{L}(H,Y)$ and…

Nonreflexive Banach spaces that are complemented in their bidual by an L-projection - like preduals of von Neumann algebras or the Hardy space $H^1$ - contain, roughly speaking, many copies of $l^1$ which are very close to isometric copies.…

We prove that for compact, non-contractible, one dimensional geodesic spaces, a version of the marked length spectrum conjecture holds. For a compact one dimensional geodesic space X, we define a subspace Conv(X). When X is…

An isomorphic (\ell_1)-predual space (X) is constructed such that neither (X) is isomorphic to a subspace of (c_0), nor (C(\omega^\omega)) is isomorphic to a subspace of (X). It follows that (X) is not isomorphic to a complemented subspace…

For Banach spaces X and Y, we establish a natural bijection between preduals of Y and preduals of L(X,Y) that respect the right L(X)-module structure. If X is reflexive, it follows that there is a unique predual making L(X) into a dual…

Let $A$ be a unital $C^*$-algebra containing a closed two-sided ideal $J$ and an operator system $X$. We enlarge $X$ to an operator system $\mathcal{S}(X,J)$ in $\mathbb{M}_2(A)$, and show that in order for $\mathcal{S}(X,J)$ to be…

The method of alternating projections involves orthogonally projecting an element of a Hilbert space onto a collection of closed subspaces. It is known that the resulting sequence always converges in norm if the projections are taken…

In a 1918 paper Schur proved a remarkable inequality that related group representations, Hermitian forms and determinants. He also gave concise necessary and sufficient conditions for equality. In 1964, Marcus gave a beautiful short proof…

About twenty years ago Johnson and Zippin showed that every separable L_1(mu)-predual was isometric to a quotient of C(Delta ), where Delta is the Cantor set. In this note we will show that the natural analogue of the theorem for…

If $K$ and $L$ are mutually dual closed convex cones in a Hilbert space with the metric projections onto them denoted by $P_K$ and $P_L$ respectively, then the following two assertions are equivalent: (i) $P_K$ is isotone with respect to…
