We prove thatthe Banach space $(\oplus_{n=1}^\infty \ell_p^n)_{\ell_q}$, which is isomorphic to certain Besov spaces, has a greedy basis whenever $1\leq p \leq\infty$ and $1<q<\infty$. Furthermore, the Banach spaces $(\oplus_{n=1}^\infty…
A Banach space contains asymptotically isometric copies of $\ell_1$ if and only if its dual space contains an isometric copy of $L_1$.
We prove three new dichotomies for Banach spaces \`a la W.T. Gowers' dichotomies. The three dichotomies characterise respectively the spaces having no minimal subspaces, having no subsequentially minimal basic sequences, and having no…
We construct for each $0<p\le 1$ an infinite collection of subspaces of $\ell_p$ that extend the example from [J. Lindenstrauss, On a certain subspace of $\ell_{1}$, Bull. Acad. Polon. Sci. S\'er. Sci. Math. Astronom. Phys. 12 (1964),…
Let N and M be von Neumann algebras. It is proved that L^p(N) does not Banach embed in L^p(M) for N infinite, M finite, 1 < or = p < 2. The following considerably stronger result is obtained (which implies this, since the Schatten p-class…
Oscillation stability is an important concept in Banach space theory which happens to be closely connected to discrete Ramsey theory. For example, Gowers proved oscillation stability for the Banach space $c_0$ using his now famous Ramsey…
A Banach space E is c_0-saturated if every closed infinite dimensional subspace of E contains an isomorph of c_0. A c_0-saturated Banach space with an unconditional basis which has a quotient space isomorphic to l^2 is constructed.
We give a brief survey of the results on coarse or uniform embeddings of Banach spaces into $c_0(\Ga)$ and the point character of Banach spaces. In the process we prove several new results in this direction (for example we determine the…
We study Banach spaces X with a strongly asymptotic l_p basis (any disjointly supported finite set of vectors far enough out with respect to the basis behaves like l_p) which are minimal (X embeds into every infinite dimensional subspace).…
We will show that an unconditional basis in a Banach space is equivalent to the unit vector basis of $c_0$ or $\ell_p$ for $1\le p < \infty$ if and only if all finitely supported blocks of the basis generated by a unit vector and its dual…
It is shown that for each separable Banach space $X$ not admitting $\ell_1$ as a spreading model there is a space $Y$ having $X$ as a quotient and not admitting any $\ell_p$ for $1 \leq p < \infty$ or $c_0$ as a spreading model. We also…
Understanding the complemented subspaces of $L_p$ has been an interesting topic of research in Banach space theory since 1960. 1999, Alspach proposed a systematic approach to classifying the subspaces of $L_p$ by introducing a norm given by…
We study the dynamics of the group of isometries of $L_p$-spaces. In particular, we study the canonical actions of these groups on the space of $\delta$-isometric embeddings of finite dimensional subspaces of $L_p(0,1)$ into itself, and we…
We characterize real Banach spaces $Y$ such that the pair $(\ell_\infty ^n, Y)$ has the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as property for operators. To this purpose it is essential the use of an appropriate basis of the domain space $\R^n$. As a…
Several new characterizations of Banach spaces containing a subspace isomorphic to $\ell^1$, are obtained. These are applied to the question of when $\ell^1$ embeds in the injective tensor product of two Banach spaces.
The classical Banach--Mazur theorem asserts that every separable Banach space admits an isometric embedding into $C[0,1]$. It is also well known that every separable Banach space embeds isometrically into $\ell^\infty$. We show that such an…
This paper is concerned with the isomorphic structure of the Banach space $\ell_\infty/c_0$ and how it depends on combinatorial tools whose existence is consistent but not provable from the usual axioms of ZFC. Our main global result is…
Let $\msp$ be a measure space and let $1 < p < \infty$. The {\em weak $L^p$}\/ space $\wlp$ consists of all measurable functions $f$ such that \[ \|f\| = \sup_{t>0}t^{\frac{1}{p}}f^*(t) < \infty,\] where $f^*$ is the decreasing…
It is shown that every Banach space either contains $\ell ^1$ or it has an infinite dimensional closed subspace which is a quotient of a H.I. Banach space.Further on, $L^p(\lambda )$, $1<p<\infty $, is a quotient of a H.I Banach space.
In this paper structure of infinite dimensional Banach spaces is studied by using an asymptotic approach based on stabilization at infinity of finite dimensional subspaces which appear everywhere far away. This leads to notions of…
