Let $S$ be a non-empty, closed subspace of a locally compact group $G$ that is a subsemigroup of $G$. Suppose that $X, Y$, and $Z$ are Banach lattices that are vector sublattices of the order dual $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{c}}(S,\mathbb R)^\sim$…

For a topological group $G$, amenability can be characterized by the amenability of the convolution Banach algebra $L^1(G)$. Here a Banach algebra $A$ is called amenable if every bounded derivation from $A$ into any dual--type…

Let X be a Banach Space over K=R or C, and let f:=F+C be a weakly coercive operator from X onto X, where F is a C^1-operator, and C a C^1 compact operator. Sufficient conditions are provided to assert that the perturbed operator f is a…

We show that the strong operator topology, the weak operator topology and the compact-open topology agree on the space of unitary operators of a infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space. Moreover, we show that the unitary group endowed…

A compact space is said to be weakly Radon-Nikod\'ym if it is homeomorphic to a weak*-compact subset of the dual of a Banach space not containing an isomorphic copy of $\ell_1$. In this work we provide an example of a continuous image of a…

For locally convex spaces, we systematize several known equivalent definitions of Fr\'echet (G\^ ateaux) Differentiability Spaces and Asplund (Weak Asplund) Spaces. As an application, we extend the classical Mazur's theorem as follows: Let…

We introduce a chain condition (bishop), defined for operators acting on C(K)-spaces, which is intermediate between weak compactness and having weakly compactly generated range. It is motivated by Pe{\l}czy\'nski's characterisation of…

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…

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…

Let $E$ and $F$ be Banach lattices. Let $G$ be a vector sublattice of $E$ and $T: G\rightarrow F$ be an order continuous positive compact (resp. weakly compact) operators. We show that if $G$ is an ideal or an order dense sublattice of $E$,…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $K$ an absolutely convex, weak$^\ast$-compact subset of $X^\ast$. We study consequences of $K$ having a large or undefined Szlenk index and subsequently derive a number of related results concerning basic…

Consider a positive operator $T$ on an $L^p$-space (or, more generally, a Banach lattice) which increases the support of functions in the sense that $supp(Tf) \supseteq supp{f}$ for every function $f \ge 0$. We show that this implies, under…

We prove that a Banach space has the uniform approximation property with proportional growth of the uniformity function iff it is a weak Hilbert space.

Classes of Banach spaces that are finitely, strongly finitely or elementary equivalent are introduced. On sets of these classes topologies are defined in such a way that sets of defined classes become compact totally disconnected…

The notion of adequate function has been recently introduced in order to characterize the essentially strictly functions on a reflexive Banach space among the weakly lower semicontinuous ones. In this paper we reinforce this concept and…

We prove that for each dense non-compact linear operator $S:X\to Y$ between Banach spaces there is a linear operator $T:Y\to c_0$ such that the operator $TS:X\to c_0$ is not compact. This generalizes the Josefson-Nissenzweig Theorem.

A new method of defining hereditarily indecomposable Banach spaces is presented. This method provides a unified approach for constructing reflexive HI spaces and also HI spaces with no reflexive subspace. All the spaces presented here…

Let $M$ be an ANR space and $X$ be a homotopy dense subspace in $M$. Assume that $M$ admits a continuous binary operation $*:M\times M\to M$ such that for every $x,y\in M$ the inclusion $x*y\in X$ holds if and only if $x,y\in X$. Assume…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be separable Banach spaces and $T:X\to Y$ be a bounded linear operator. We characterize the non-separability of $T^*(Y^*)$ by means of fixing properties of the operator $T$.

It is well known that in the calculus of variations and in optimization there exist many formulations of the fundamental propositions on the attainment of the infima of sequentially weakly lower semicontinuous coercive functions on…
