G. Godefroy asked whether, on any Banach space, the set of norm-attaining functionals contains a 2-dimensional linear subspace. We prove that a recent construction due to C.J. Read provides an example of a space which does not have this…

The question regarding the location of Banach spaces inside their biduals has been investigated and answered reasonably satisfactorily in the linear theory of Banach spaces. Thus, for instance, whereas it is known that a dual Banach space…

Given a category of objects, it is both useful and important to know if all the objects in the category may be realised as sub-objects -- via morphisms in the given category -- of a single object in that category enjoying some nice…

In this note a large class of primary Banach spaces is characterized. Namely, it will be demonstrated that under the Continuum Hypothesis the ultrapower of any infinite dimensional nonsuperreflexive Banach space is always primary.…

In this paper, the notion of semi-compact perturbation of a closed linear subspace is introduced. Then for a of pair of closed linear subspace of a Banach space such that one is a semi-compact perturbation of the other, it is proved that…

The aim of the present paper is essentially to prove that if $\Phi$ and $\Psi$ are two sequentially weakly lower semicontinuous functionals on a reflexive real Banach space and if $\Psi$ is also continuous and coercive, then then following…

The main purpose of the paper is to prove the following results: Let $A$ be a locally finite metric space whose finite subsets admit uniformly bilipschitz embeddings into a Banach space $X$. Then $A$ admits a bilipschitz embedding into $X$.…

We present different extensions of the Banach contraction principle in the $G$-metric space setting. More precisely, we consider mappings for which the contractive condition is satisfied by a power of the mapping and for which the power…

We give a new proof of the "weakly admissible implies admissible" theorem of Colmez and Fontaine describing the semi-stable p-adic representations. We study Banach-Colmez spaces, i.e. p-adic Banach spaces with the extra data of a…

We investigate isomorphic embeddings $T: C(K)\to C(L)$ between Banach spaces of continuous functions. We show that if such an embedding $T$ is a positive operator then $K$ is an image of $L$ under a upper semicontinuous set-function having…

We show that a complemented subspace of a locally convex direct sum of an uncountable collection of Banach spaces is a locally convex direct sum of complemented subspaces of countable subsums. As a corollary we prove that a complemented…

We show that if $X$ is a complete metric space with uniform relative normal structure and $G$ is a subgroup of the isometry group of $X$ with bounded orbits, then there is a point in $X$ fixed by every isometry in $G$. As a corollary, we…

We prove that hereditarily Lindel\"of space which is $F_{\sigma\delta}$ in some compactification is absolutely $F_{\sigma\delta}$. In particular, this implies that any separable Banach space is absolutely $F_{\sigma\delta}$ when equipped…

We study the structure of the space of coarse Lipschitz maps between Banach spaces. In particular we introduce the notion of norm attaining coarse Lipschitz maps. We extend to the case of norm attaining coarse Lipschitz equivalences, a…

A Banach space has the Schur property when every weakly convergent sequence converges in norm. We prove a Schur-like property for measures: if a sequence of finite signed Borel measures on a Polish space is such that it is bounded in total…

We obtain a strengthening of the principle of local reflexivity in a general form. The added strength makes local reflexivity operators respect given subspaces. Applications are given to bounded approximation properties of pairs, consisting…

The purpose of this article is to prove existence of mass minimizing integral currents with prescribed possibly non-compact boundary in all dual Banach spaces and furthermore in certain spaces without linear structure, such as injective…

The famous Michael selection theorem deals with the characterisation of paracompact spaces by continuous selections of lower semi-continuous mappings in Banach spaces. In this paper, we will discuss several equivalent forms of this theorem,…

A well-known result by Lindenstrauss is that any two-dimensional normed space can be isometrically imbedded into $L_1(0,1)$. We provide an explicit form of a such an imbedding. The proof is elementary and self-contained. Applications are…

A Fenchel-Moreau type duality for proper convex and lower semi-continuous functions $f\colon X\to \overline{L^0}$ is established where $(X,Y,\langle \cdot,\cdot \rangle)$ is a dual pair of Banach spaces and $\overline{L^0}$ is the set of…
