Let $B$ be a Banach algebra. The interest of this article lies in the study of the commutativity of B if certain specific algebraic identities hold over a non-empty open subset of B. The limitations imposed in the hypothesis of our results…
New notion of weak amenability, $(\varphi,\psi)$-weak amenability recently introduced. In this paper we consider this new notion and study $(\varphi,\psi)$-weak amenability of group algebras $M(G)$, $L^1(G)$ and $S^1(G)$.
Hereditarily indecomposable Banach spaces may have density at most continuum (Plichko-Yost, Argyros-Tolias). In this paper we show that this cannot be proved for indecomposable Banach spaces. We provide the first example of an…
We present a reflexive Banach space with an unconditional basis which is quasi-minimal and tight by range, i.e. of type (4) in Ferenczi-Rosendal list within the framework of Gowers' classification program of Banach spaces. The space is an…
We identify a class of smooth Banach *-algebras that are differential subalgebras of commutative C*-algebras whose openness of multiplication is completely determined by the topological stable rank of the target C*-algebra. We then show…
Let $X$ be a Banach space and $\mu$ a probability measure. A set $K \subseteq L^1(\mu,X)$ is said to be a $\delta\mathcal{S}$-set if it is uniformly integrable and for every $\delta>0$ there is a weakly compact set $W \subseteq X$ such that…
Motivated by a seminal paper of professor M. Z. Nashed published in 1987 on classification of ill-posed linear operator equations and distinguishing two types of ill-posedness in Banach and Hilbert spaces, we present, illustrate and justify…
We prove that the class of reflexive asymptotic-$c_0$ Banach spaces is coarsely rigid, meaning that if a Banach space $X$ coarsely embeds into a reflexive asymptotic-$c_0$ space $Y$, then $X$ is also reflexive and asymptotic-$c_0$. In order…
We prove that several classical Banach space properties are equivalent to separability for the class of Lipschitz-free spaces, including Corson's property ($\mathcal{C}$), Talponen's Countable Separation Property, or being a G\^ateaux…
The main result: the dual of separable Banach space $X$ contains a total subspace which is not norming over any infinite dimensional subspace of $X$ if and only if $X$ has a nonquasireflexive quotient space with the strictly singular…
We introduce "weakly chained spaces", which need not be locally connected or path connected, but for which one has a reasonable notion of generalized fundamental group and associated generalized universal cover. We show that in the compact…
In this paper we survey known results of characterizations of reflexive Banach spaces, which are based on convergence of usual and generalized arithmetic mean (or Ces\`aro sum), weakly compact subsets, affine sets in a Banach space or its…
For a large class of Banach spaces, a general construction of subspaces without local unconditional structure is presented. As an application it is shown that every Banach space of finite cotype contains either $l_2$ or a subspace without…
A dual Banach algebra is a Banach algebra which is a dual space, with the multiplication being separately weak$^*$-continuous. We show that given a unital dual Banach algebra $\mc A$, we can find a reflexive Banach space $E$, and an…
We strengthen the property $\Delta$ of a function $f:[\omega_2]^2\rightarrow [\omega_2]^{\leq \omega}$ considered by Baumgartner and Shelah. This allows us to consider new types of amalgamations in the forcing used by Rabus, Juh\'asz and…
Several new characterizations of the Gelfand-Phillips property are given. We define a strong version of the Gelfand-Phillips property and prove that a Banach space has this stronger property iff it embeds into $c_0$. For an infinite compact…
We analyze the construction of a sequence space $\widetilde{\Theta}$, resp. a sequence of sequence spaces, in order to have $\{g_i\}$ as a $\widetilde{\Theta}$-frame or Banach frame for a Banach space $X$, resp. pre-$F$-frame or $F$-frame…
We prove the following results: (i) Every absolutely weakly compact set in a Banach lattice is absolutely weakly sequentially compact. (ii) The converse of (i) holds if $E$ is separable or $B_{E^{**}}$ is absolutely weak$^*$ compact. (iii)…
We consider the class of quantum mechanical master equations defined on a generic Banach space, arising by projecting weakly perturbed one-parameter groups of isometries. We show that the possible semigroup approximations are far from…
Let $X$ be a completely regular space. For a non-vanishing self-adjoint Banach subalgebra $H$ of $C_B(X)$ which has local units we construct the spectrum $\mathfrak{sp}(H)$ of $H$ as an open subspace of the Stone-Cech compactification of…
