Let $A_p(G)$ denote the Figa-Talamanca-Herz Banach Algebra of the locally compact group}} $G$, thus $A_2(G)$ {\it{is the Fourier Algebra of $G$. If $G$ is commutative then $A_2(G)=L^1(\hat{G})^\wedge$. Let $A_p^r(G)=A_p\cap L^r(G)$ with…

If $\mu_1,\mu_2,\dots$ are positive measures on a measurable space $(X,\Sigma)$ and $v_1,v_2, \dots$ are elements of a Banach space ${\mathbb E}$ such that $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \|v_n\| \mu_n(X) < \infty$, then $\omega (S)= \sum_{n=1}^\infty…

We show that any non-zero Banach space with a separable dual contains a totally disconnected, closed and bounded subset S of Hausdorff dimension 1 such that every Lipschitz function on the space is Fr\'echet differentiable somewhere in S.

A problem of Banach asks whether every infinite-dimensional Banach space which is isomorphic to all its infinite-dimensional subspaces must be isomorphic to a separable Hilbert space. In this paper we prove a result of a Ramsey-theoretic…

Let $X$ be a Banach space $E$ a K\"othe function space that does not contain $c_0$. It is shown that the vector valued function space $E(X)$ has the Near Radon Nikodym property if and only if $X$ does.

This paper contains two improvements on a theorem of S. N. Bernstein for Banach spaces. We show that if $X$ is an arbitrary infinite-dimensional Banach space, $\{Y_n\}$ is a sequence of strictly nested subspaces of $ X$ and if $\{d_n\}$ is…

We prove that each sub-Riemannian manifold can be embedded in some Euclidean space preserving the length of all the curves in the manifold. The result is an extension of Nash $C^1$ Embedding Theorem. For more general metric spaces the same…

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…

The main purpose of the paper is to present some recent results on metric characterizations of superreflexivity and the Radon-Nikod\'ym property.

We set up a descriptive set-theoretic framework to study Lipschitz-free spaces and use the reduction argument of Bossard to prove several results. We prove two universality results: if a separable Banach space is isomorphically universal…

We show that every metric space with bounded geometry uniformly embeds into an explicit reflexive Banach space (a direct sum of l^p spaces). In the case of discrete groups we show the analogue of a-T-menability. That is, we construct a…

A separable Banach space $X$ is said to be finitely determined if for each separable space $Y$ such that $X$ is finitely representable (f.r.) in $Y$ and $Y$ is f.r. in $X$ then $Y$ is isometric to $X$. We provide a direct proof (without…

Some necessary and sufficient conditions are found for Banach function lattices to have the Radon-Nikod\'ym property. Consequently it is shown that an Orlicz space $L_\varphi$ over a non-atomic $\sigma$-finite measure space $(\Omega,…

We consider Sobolev spaces with values in Banach spaces as they are frequently useful in applied problems. Given two Banach spaces $X\neq\{0\}$ and $Y$, each Lipschitz continuous mapping $F:X\rightarrow Y$ gives rise to a mapping $u\mapsto…

We consider several quantities related to weak sequential completeness of a Banach space and prove some of their properties in general and in $L$-embedded Banach spaces, improving in particular an inequality of G. Godefroy, N. Kalton and D.…

We consider a certain type of geometric properties of Banach spaces, which includes for instance octahedrality, almost squareness, lushness and the Daugavet property. For this type of properties, we obtain a general reduction theorem,…

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 construct the generalized Lebesgue--Bochner spaces $L^p(\mu,\varPi)$ for positive measures $\mu$ and for suitable real or complex topological vector spaces $\varPi$ so that for $1<p<+\infty$ and Banachable $\varPi$ with separable…

We consider the question whether there exists a Banach space $X$ of density continuum such that every Banach space of density not bigger than continuum isomorphically embeds into $X$ (called a universal Banach space of density $\cc$). It is…

Let X and Y be two infinite-dimensional Banach spaces. If X is crudely finitely representable in every finite-codimensional subspace of Y, then any proper subset of X almost bi-Lipschitz embeds into Y, in a sense quite close to that of F.…
