Recently, W. Cuellar Carrera, N. de Rancourt, and V. Ferenczi introduced the notion of $d_2$-hereditarily indecomposable Banach spaces, i.e., non-Hilbertian spaces that do not contain the direct sum of any two non-Hilbertian subspaces. They…

Let G be a locally compact group. Consider the Banach algebra L_1(G)^**, equipped with the first Arens multiplication, as well as the algebra LUC(G)^*, the dual of the space of bounded left uniformly continuous functions on G, whose product…

In [8] probabilistic methods, in particular a variant of the Weak Law of Large Numbers related to the Bernoulli distribution, have been used to show that for every infinite compact spaces K and L there exists a sequence $(\mu_n)$ of…

We prove that a separable Hausdorff topological space $X$ containing a cocountable subset homeomorphic to $[0,\omega_1]$ admits no separately continuous mean operation and no diagonally continuous $n$-mean for $n\ge 2$.

In this paper, the linear structure of the family $H_e(G)$ of holomorphic functions in a domain $G$ of the complex plane that are not analytically continuable beyond the boundary of $G$ is analyzed. We prove that $H_e(G)$ contains, except…

We give biorthogonal system characterizations of Banach spaces that fail the Dunford-Pettis property, contain an isomorphic copy of $c_0$, or fail the hereditary Dunford-Pettis property. We combine this with previous results to show that…

We introduce Nevanlinna--Pick norms associated with finite families of characters in a commutative semisimple Banach algebra and study the class $NP_\infty$, where all such norms are minimal. Our main result is a topological rigidity…

It is known that smooth bump functions are absent in the majority of infinite-dimensional Banach spaces. This is an obstacle in the development of local analysis, in particular in the questions of extending local maps onto the whole space.…

We show that a C*-algebra is a $1$-separably injective Banach space if, and only if, it is linearly isometric to the Banach space $C_0(\Omega)$ of complex continuous functions vanishing at infinity on a substonean locally compact Hausdorff…

We show that if $X$ is a Banach space whose dual $X^{*}$ has an equivalent locally uniformly rotund (LUR) norm, then for every open convex $U\subseteq X$, for every $\varepsilon >0$, and for every continuous and convex function $f:U…

Let $(M,g)$ be an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold with a smooth conformal compactification. We establish a general correspondence between semilinear elliptic equations of scalar curvature type on $\del M$ and Weingarten foliations in…

The present paper is concerned with some representatons of linear mappings of continuous functions into locally convex vector spaces, namely: If X is a complete Hausdorff locally convex vector space, then a general form of weakly compact…

Let $K_1$, $K_2$ be compact Hausdorff spaces and $E_1, E_2$ be Banach spaces not containing a copy of $c_0$. We establish lower estimates of the Banach-Mazur distance between the spaces of continuous functions $\mathcal{C}(K_1, E_1)$ and…

We establish complete characterizations of various notions of expansivity for weighted composition operators on a very general class of locally convex spaces of continuous functions. This class includes several classical classes of…

Let $C_b(K)$ be the set of all bounded continuous (real or complex) functions on a complete metric space $K$ and $A$ a closed subspace of $C_b(K)$. Using the variational method, it is shown that the set of all strong peak functions in $A$…

We consider a large class of geodesic metric spaces, including Banach spaces, hyperbolic spaces and geodesic $\mathrm{CAT}(\kappa)$-spaces, and investigate the space of nonexpansive mappings on either a convex or a star-shaped subset in…

One shows for Banach bundles in a certain class that having a second countable locally compact Hausdorff base space and separable fibers implies the separability of the Banach space of the all sections that vanish at infinity. In the…

A version of Gromov's cup product lemma in which one factor is the (1,0)-part of the differential of a continuous plurisubharmonic function is obtained. As an application, it is shown that a connected noncompact complete Kaehler manifold…

Let $(e_i)_i$ denote the unit vector basis of $\ell_p$, $1\leq p< \infty$, or $c_0$. We construct a reflexive Banach space with an unconditional basis that admits $(e_i)_i$ as a uniformly unique spreading model while it has no subspace with…

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…
