We investigate the extremal properties of the unit ball of $L(X)_w^*$, the dual space of bounded linear operators defined on a Banach space $X$ equipped with the numerical radius norm. As an application of the present study, we obtain a…

For an $(n\ge 2)$-dimensional real Banach space $E$ with unit ball $E_{\le 1}$ and a topological space $X$ arbitrary elements in $C(X,E_{\le 1})$ are always expressible as linear combinations of at most three functions valued in the unit…

We consider a general concept of Daugavet property with respect to a norming subspace. This concept covers both the usual Daugavet property and its weak$^*$ analogue. We introduce and study analogues for narrow operators and rich subspaces…

It is shown that there exists a nontrivial uniform algebra that is Dirichlet on its maximal ideal space and has a dense set of elements that are exponentials. This answers a 65-year-old question of John Wermer and a 17-year-old question of…

We provide a few characterizations of a strictly convex Banach space. Using this we improve the main theorem of [Digar, Abhik; Kosuru, G. Sankara Raju; Cyclic uniform Lipschitzian mappings and proximal uniform normal structure. Ann. Funct.…

This note is motivated by the article of Bamerni, Kadets and Kili\c{c}man [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 435 (2), 1812--1815 (2016)]. We consider the remaining problem which claims that if $A$ is a dense subset of a finite dimensional space $X$,…

We prove that for $n\geq2$ there exists a compact subset $X$ of the closed ball in $R^{2n}$ of radius $\sqrt{2}$, such that $X$ has Hausdorff dimension $n$ and does not symplectically embed into the standard open symplectic cylinder. The…

A survey is given of the work on strong regularity for uniform algebras over the last thirty years, and some new results are proved, including the following. Let A be a uniform algebra on a compact space X and let E be the set of all those…

Qualitatively, a no-dimensional Helly-type theorem says that if every small subfamily of convex sets has a common point in a bounded region, then suitable neighborhoods of all the sets in the whole family have a common point. Quantitative…

Given a family $\mathcal{C}$ of closed bounded convex sets in a Banach space $X$, we say that $X$ has the $\mathcal{C}$-MIP if every $C \in \mathcal{C}$ is the intersection of the closed balls containing it. In this paper, we introduce a…

We study the double iterated outer $L^p$ spaces, namely the outer $L^p$ spaces associated with three exponents and defined on sets endowed with a measure and two outer measures. We prove that in the case of finite sets, under certain…

Large deviation estimates are by now a standard tool inthe Asymptotic Convex Geometry, contrary to small deviationresults. In this note we present a novel application of a smalldeviations inequality to a problem related to the diameters of…

We extend the Daugavet property and a perfect version of it to transfinite cardinals in order to distinguish between spaces with the ordinary Daugavet property by some kind of complexity (topological, density\ldots), providing a number of…

We establish a general criterion for the existence of convex sets of fixed shape as, e.g., balls of a given radius, of maximal probability on Banach spaces. We also provide counterexamples showing that their existence my fail even in some…

In this note, we prove that the Daugavet property implies the polynomial Daugavet property, solving a longstanding open problem in the field. Our approach is based on showing that a geometric characterization of the Daugavet property due to…

We prove that a closed convex subset of a Banach space is (super-)weakly compact if and only if it is (super)-ergodic. As a consequence we deduce that super weakly compact sets are characterized by the fixed point property for continuous…

In a paper published posthumously, P.S. Urysohn constructed a complete, separable metric space that contains an isometric copy of every complete separable metric space, nowadays referred to as the Urysohn universal space. Here we study…

Let $\mathcal A$ be a semisimple commutative Banach algebra. It is shown that either $\mathcal A$ has exactly one uniform norm or it admits uncountably many uniform norms. Further, it is shown that there always exists a largest closed…

We show that if a Banach space X has the weak fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings and Y has the generalized Gossez-Lami Dozo property or is uniformly convex in every direction, then the direct sum of X and Y with a strictly…

The study of the 2D Euler equation with non Lipschitzian velocity was initiated by Yudovich in [19] where a result of global well-posedness for essentially bounded vorticity is proved. A lot of works have been since dedicated to the…
