Let $X$ be a Banach space with a separable dual. We prove that $X$ embeds isomorphically into a $\cL_\infty$ space $Z$ whose dual is isomorphic to $\ell_1$. If, moreover, $U$ is a space so that $U$ and $X$ are totally incomparable, then we…
We show the existence of Lipschitz-free spaces verifying the Point of Continuity Property with arbitrarily high weak-fragmentability index. For this purpose, we use a generalized construction of the countably branching diamond graphs. As a…
In the past few decades, much has been done regarding the descriptive set theory of separable Banach spaces. However, the descriptive properties of separable Fr\'echet spaces have not yet been investigated. In these notes, we look at this…
We show that for each $p\in(0,1]$ there exists a separable $p$-Banach space $\mathbb G_p$ of almost universal disposition, that is, having the following extension property: for each $\epsilon>0$ and each isometric embedding $g:X\to Y$,…
We prove that no separable Banach algebra is universal for homomorphic embeddings of all separable Banach algebras, whether embeddings are merely bounded or required to be contractive. The same holds in the commutative category. The proof…
We present an example of an infinite dimensional separable space of affine continuous functions on a Choquet simplex that does not contain a subspace linearly isometric to $c$. This example disproves a result stated in M. Zippin. On some…
For a constant $K\geq 1$ let $\mathfrak{B}_K$ be the class of pairs $(X,(\mathbf e_n)_{n\in\omega})$ consisting of a Banach space $X$ and an unconditional Schauder basis $(\mathbf e_n)_{n\in\omega}$ for $X$, having the unconditional basic…
We prove that the Lipschitz-free space over a separable ultrametric space has a monotone Schauder basis and is isomorphic to $\ell_1$. This extends results of A. Dalet using an alternative approach.
The problem involving the extension of functions from a certain class and defined on subdomains of the ambient space to the whole space is an old and a well investigated theme in analysis. A related question whether the extensions that…
Given a Banach space we consider the $\sigma$-ideal of all of its subsets which are covered by countably many hyperplanes and investigate its standard cardinal characteristics as the additivity, the covering number, the uniformity, the…
We construct a nonseparable Banach space $\mathcal X$ (actually, of density continuum) such that any uncountable subset $\mathcal Y$ of the unit sphere of $\mathcal X$ contains uncountably many points distant by less than $1$ (in fact, by…
In this paper we show that every sequence (F_n) of finite dimensional subspaces of a real or complex Banach space with increasing dimensions can be ``refined'' to yield an F.D.D. (G_n), still having increasing dimensions, so that either…
We show that there exists a Banach space in which every non-empty weakly open subset of its unit ball has radius one, the maximum possible value, but the infimum of the diameter of its slices is exactly one, so extremely far from its…
A classical theorem due to G.D. Birkhoff states that there exists an entire function whose translates approximate any given entire function, as accurately as desired, over any ball of the complex plane. We show this result may be…
We show that whenever a separable subset $S$ of a complete metric space $X$ admits a $d$-dimensional weak tangent field, the set $S$ is close to being $d$-dimensional in the following sense. Whenever $\mu$ is a Borel finite measure on $X$…
We show that the Lipschitz-free space with the Radon--Nikod\'{y}m property and a Daugavet point recently constructed by Veeorg is in fact a dual space isomorphic to $\ell_1$. Furthermore, we answer an open problem from the literature by…
We construct a reflexive Banach space $X_\mathcal{D}$ with an unconditional basis such that all spreading models admitted by normalized block sequences in $X_\mathcal{D}$ are uniformly equivalent to the unit vector basis of $\ell_1$, yet…
The paper elucidates the relationship between the density of a Banach space and possible sizes of well-separated subsets of its unit sphere. For example, it is proved that for a large enough space $X$, the unit sphere $S_X$ always contains…
A closed subset $M$ of a Banach space $E$ is \ep, i.e., can be represented locally as the epigraph of a Lipschitz function, if and only if it is the level set of some locally Lipschitz function $f: E\to \R$, wich Clarke's generalized…
In this paper we prove that the typical Lipschitz function has no directional derivative at any point of a Borel set $E$ if and only if $E$ is contained in a countable union of closed purely unrectifiable sets.
