Bourgain's discretization theorem asserts that there exists a universal constant $C\in (0,\infty)$ with the following property. Let $X,Y$ be Banach spaces with $\dim X=n$. Fix $D\in (1,\infty)$ and set $\delta= e^{-n^{Cn}}$. Assume that…
Let $\H= < a,b | a[a,b]=[a,b]a \wedge b[a,b]=[a,b]b>$ be the discrete Heisenberg group, equipped with the left-invariant word metric $d_W(\cdot,\cdot)$ associated to the generating set ${a,b,a^{-1},b^{-1}}$. Letting $B_n= {x\in \H:…
For each positive integer $m$ and each real finite dimensional Banach space $X$, we set $\beta(X,m)$ to be the infimum of $\delta\in (0,1]$ such that each set $A\subset X$ having diameter $1$ can be represented as the union of $m$ subsets…
Recently Talagrand [T] estimated the deviation of a function on $\{0,1\}^n$ from its median in terms of the Lipschitz constant of a convex extension of $f$ to $\ell ^n_2$; namely, he proved that $$P(|f-M_f| > c) \le 4 e^{-t^2/4\sigma ^2}$$…
The linear projection constant $\Pi(E)$ of a finite-dimensional real Banach space $E$ is the smallest number $C\in [0,+\infty)$ such that $E$ is a $C$-absolute retract in the category of real Banach spaces with bounded linear maps. We…
This is an attempt to build Banach space valued theory for certain singular integrals on Hamming cube. Of course all estimates below are dimension independent, and we tried to find ultimate sharp assumptions on the Banach space for a…
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 investigate a Grothendieck-type inequality for pairs of Banach spaces $E,F$ assuming $E$ is finite-dimensional and study the associated Grothendieck-type constant. We prove that if there is a $C >0$ such that $\|A\otimes…
It is shown that if (X,||.||_X) is a Banach space with Rademacher type p \ge 1, then for every integer n there exists an even integer m < Cn^{2-1/p}log n (C is an absolute constant), such that for every f:Z_m^n --> X, \Avg_{x,\e}[||f(x+…
Let $(\{f_j\}_{j=1}^n, \{\tau_j\}_{j=1}^n)$ and $(\{g_k\}_{k=1}^m, \{\omega_k\}_{k=1}^m)$ be p-Schauder frames for a finite dimensional Banach space $\mathcal{X}$. Then for every $x \in \mathcal{X}\setminus\{0\}$, we show that \begin{align}…
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…
For parameters $\,c\in(0,1)\,$ and $\,\beta>0$, let $\,\ell_{2}(c,\beta)\,$ be the Hilbert space of real functions defined on $\,\mathbb{N}\,$ (i.e., real sequences), for which $$ \| f \|_{c,\beta}^2 :=…
This paper provides a discrete Poincar\'e inequality in $n$ space dimensions on a simplex $K$ with explicit constants. This inequality bounds the norm of the piecewise derivative of functions with integral mean zero on $K$ and all integrals…

For any $N\ge 2$ and $\aa:=(\aa_1,\cdots, \aa_{N+1})\in (0,\infty)^{N+1}$, let $\mu^{(N)}_{\aa}$ be the corresponding Dirichlet distribution on $\DD:= \big\{ x=(x_i)_{1\le i\le N}\in [0,1]^N:\ \sum_{1\le i\le N} x_i\le 1\big\}.$ We prove…
Given two metric spaces $\mathcal N \subseteq \mathcal M$ in inclusion and $0<p\leq 1$, we wish to determine the smallest constant $\mathfrak{t}_p (\mathcal N, \mathcal M)$ such that any Lipschitz map $f: \mathcal N \to Z$ into any…
Given a Banach space $X$ and a real number $\alpha\ge 1$, we write: (1) $D(X)\le\alpha$ if, for any locally finite metric space $A$, all finite subsets of which admit bilipschitz embeddings into $X$ with distortions $\le C$, the space $A$…
