Let $X$ be a reflexive Banach space such that for any $x \ne 0$ the set $$ \{x^* \in X^*: \text {$\|x^*\|=1$ and $x^*(x)=\|x\|$}\} $$ is compact. We prove that any unrestricted product of of a finite number of $(W)$ contractions on $X$…

We formulate general conditions which imply that $L(X,Y)$, the space of operators from a Banach space $X$ to a Banach space $Y$, has $2^{\mathfrak c}$ closed ideals where $\mathfrak c$ is the cardinality of the continuum. These results are…

In this paper the theory of uniformly convex metric spaces is developed. These spaces exhibit a generalized convexity of the metric from a fixed point. Using a (nearly) uniform convexity property a simple proof of reflexivity is presented…

A separable Banach space $X$ is said to be finitely determined if for each separable space $Y$ such that $X$ is finitely representable (f.r.) in $Y$ and $Y$ is f.r. in $X$ then $Y$ is isometric to $X$. We provide a direct proof (without…

In this paper, we obtain a minimax theorem by means of which, in turn, we prove the following result: Let $E$ be an infinite-dimensional reflexive real Banach space, $T:E\to E$ a non-zero compact linear operator, $\varphi:E\to {\bf R}$ a…

We construct a Banach space satisfying that the nearest point map (also called proximity mapping or metric projection) onto any compact and convex subset is continuous but not uniformly continuous. The space we construct is locally…

A Banach space $\X$ has the complete continuity property (CCP) if each bounded linear operator from $L_1$ into $\X$ is completely continuous (i.e., maps weakly convergent sequences to norm convergent sequences). The main theorem shows that…

The Krein-Milman theorem (1940) states that every convex compact subset of a Hausdorfflocally convex topological space, is the closed convex hull of its extreme points. In 1963, Ky Fan extended the Krein-Milman theorem to the general…

We study the classification of spaces of continuous functions $C(K)$ under positive linear maps. For infinite countable compacta, we show that whenever $C(K)$ and $C(L)$ are isomorphic, there exists an isomorphism $T:C(K)\to C(L)$…

Let X be a compact convex set and let ext X stand for the set of extreme points of X. We show that an affine function with the point of continuity property on X satisfies the minimum principle. As a corollary we obtain a generalization of a…

This paper presents a necessary and sufficient condition for a real-valued function defined on an open and convex subset of a Banach space to be quasi-concave, and a sufficient condition for such a function to be strictly quasi-concave.…

A Banach space has the weak fixed point property if its dual space has a weak$^*$ sequentially compact unit ball and the dual space satisfies the weak$^*$ uniform Kadec-Klee property; and it has the \fpp if there exists $\epsilon>0$ such…

We prove that, given two Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ and bounded, closed convex sets $C\subseteq X$ and $D\subseteq Y$, if a nonzero element $z\in \overline{\mathrm{co}}(C\otimes D)\subseteq X\widehat{\otimes}_\pi Y$ is a preserved extreme…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of topologically Banach contraction mapping defined on an arbitrary topological space X with the help of a continuous function $g:X\times X\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ and investigate the existence of fixed…

A metric space $\mathbf{X}$ is called densely complete if there exists a dense set $D$ in $\mathbf{X}$ such that every Cauchy sequence of points of $D $ converges in $\mathbf{X}$. One of the main aims of this work is to prove that the…

In $\mathbb{R}^d$, a closed, convex set has zero Lebesgue measure if and only its interior is empty. More generally, in separable, reflexive Banach spaces, closed and convex sets are Haar null if and only if their interior is empty. We…

Banach's fixed point theorem for contraction maps has been widely used to analyze the convergence of iterative methods in non-convex problems. It is a common experience, however, that iterative maps fail to be globally contracting under the…

In this paper we prove a strong Hahn-Banach theorem: separation of disjoint convex sets by linear forms is possible without any further conditions, if the target field $\R$ is replaced by a more general real closed extension field. From…

For a completely regular space $X$, let $C_B(X)$ be the normed algebra of all bounded continuous scalar-valued mappings on $X$ equipped with pointwise addition and multiplication and the supremum norm and let $C_0(X)$ be its subalgebra…

It is known that for every Banach space X and every proper WOT-closed subalgebra A of L(X), if A contains a compact operator then it is not transitive. That is, there exist non-zero x in X and f in X* such that f(Tx)=0 for all T in A. In…
