A linear continuous nonzero operator G:X->Y is a Daugavet center if every rank-1 operator T:X->Y satisfies ||G+T||=||G||+||T||. We study the case when either X or Y is a sum $X_1 \oplus_F X_2$ of two Banach spaces $X_1$ and $X_2$ by some…
A Banach space $X$ is said to have the Daugavet property if every operator $T: X\to X$ of rank~$1$ satisfies $\|Id+T\| = 1+\|T\|$. We show that then every weakly compact operator satisfies this equation as well and that $X$ contains a copy…
Let X be a closed subspace of a Banach space Y and J be the inclusion map. We say that the pair (X,Y) has the Daugavet property if for every rank one bounded linear operator T from X to Y the following equality \|J+T\|=1+\|T\| holds. A new…
A Banach space $X$ has the Daugavet property if the Daugavet equation $\|\Id + T\|= 1 + \|T\|$ holds for every rank-one operator $T:X \longrightarrow X$. We show that the most natural attempts to introduce new properties by considering…
A Banach space $X$ is said to have the Daugavet property if every rank-one operator $T:X\longrightarrow X$ satisfies $\|Id + T\| = 1 + \|T\|$. We give geometric characterizations of this property in the settings of $C^*$-algebras,…
We study the presence of $L$-orthogonal elements in connection with Daugavet centers and narrow operators. We prove that, if $\dens(Y)\leq \omega_1$ and $G:X\longrightarrow Y$ is a Daugavet center, then $G(W)$ contains some $L$-orthogonal…
A Banach space $X$ is said to have the alternative Daugavet property if for every (bounded and linear) rank-one operator $T:X\longrightarrow X$ there exists a modulus one scalar $\omega$ such that $\|Id + \omega T\|= 1 + \|T\|$. We give…
We prove the norm identity $\|Id+T\| = 1+\|T\|$, which is known as the Daugavet equation, for operators $T$ on $C(S)$ not fixing a copy of $C(S)$, where $S$ is a compact metric space without isolated points.
We prove the norm identity $\|\Id+T\| =1+\|T\|$, which is known as the Daugavet equation, for weakly compact operators $T$ on natural function spaces such as function algebras and $L^{1}$-predual spaces, provided a non-discreteness…
Let $X$ be a Banach space. We introduce a formal approach which seems to be useful in the study of those properties of operators on $X$ which depend only on the norms of images of elements. This approach is applied to the Daugavet equation…
In this paper, we are interested in studying when an element $z$ in the projective tensor product $X \widehat{\otimes}_\pi Y$ turns out to be a Daugavet point. We prove first that, under some hypothesis, the assumption of $X…
Let $T\dopu C(S)\to C(S)$ be a bounded linear operator. We present a necessary and sufficient condition for the so-called Daugavet equation $$ \|\Id+T\| = 1+\|T\| $$ to hold, and we apply it to weakly compact operators and to operators…
In this note, we prove that the Daugavet property implies the polynomial Daugavet property, solving a longstanding open problem in the field. Our approach is based on showing that a geometric characterization of the Daugavet property due to…
We introduce and study the notion of generating operators as those norm-one operators $G\colon X\longrightarrow Y$ such that for every $0<\delta<1$, the set $\{x\in X\colon \|x\|\leq 1,\ \|Gx\|>1-\delta\}$ generates the unit ball of $X$ by…
We study the existence of Daugavet- and delta-points in the unit sphere of Banach spaces with a $1$-unconditional basis. A norm one element $x$ in a Banach space is a Daugavet-point (resp. delta-point) if every element in the unit ball…
A Daugavet-point (resp.~$\Delta$-point) of a Banach space is a norm one element $x$ for which every point in the unit ball (resp.~element $x$ itself) is in the closed convex hull of unit ball elements that are almost at distance 2 from $x$.…
We show that if $T$ is a narrow operator on $X=X_{1}\oplus_{1} X_{2}$ or $X=X_{1}\oplus_{\infty} X_{2}$, then the restrictions to $X_{1}$ and $X_{2}$ are narrow and conversely. We also characterise by a version of the Daugavet property for…
We introduce the super alternative Daugavet property (super ADP) which lies strictly between the Daugavet property and the Alternative Daugavet property as follows. A Banach space $X$ has the super ADP if for every element $x$ in the unit…
A $\Delta$-point $x$ of a Banach space is a norm one element that is arbitrarily close to convex combinations of elements in the unit ball that are almost at distance $2$ from $x$. If, in addition, every point in the unit ball is…
We introduce a new diametral notion for points of the unit sphere of Banach spaces, that naturally complements the notion of Delta-points, but is weaker than the notion of Daugavet points. We prove that this notion can be used to provide a…
