A natural class of ideals, almost isometric ideals, of Banach spaces is defined and studied. The motivation for working with this class of subspaces is our observation that they inherit diameter 2 properties and the Daugavet property.…
Existence and uniqueness of complex geodesics joining two points of a convex bounded domain in a Banach space $X$ are considered. Existence is proved for the unit ball of $X$ under the assumption that $X$ is 1-complemented in its double…
We study the diameter two properties in the spaces $JH$, $JT_\infty$ and $JH_\infty$. We show that the topological dual space of the previous Banach spaces fails every diameter two property. However, we prove that $JH$ and $JH_{\infty}$…
The main results of the paper: {\bf (1)} The dual Banach space $X^*$ contains a linear subspace $A\subset X^*$ such that the set $A^{(1)}$ of all limits of weak$^*$ convergent bounded nets in $A$ is a proper norm-dense subset of $X^*$ if…
We give a characterisation of the separable Banach spaces with the Daugavet property which is applied to study the Daugavet property in the projective tensor product of an $L$-embedded space with another non-zero Banach space. The former…
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…
We study transfinite analogues of the symmetric strong diameter two property. We investigate the stability of these properties under $c_0$, $\ell_\infty$ sums and under projective tensor products. Moreover, we characterize Banach spaces of…
Let X be a closed subspace of a Banach space Y and J be the inclusion map. We say that the pair (X,Y) has the Daugavet property if for every rank one bounded linear operator T from X to Y the following equality \|J+T\|=1+\|T\| holds. A new…
We show that all the symmetric projective tensor products of a Banach space $X$ have the Daugavet property provided $X$ has the Daugavet property and either $X$ is an $L_1$-predual (i.e.\ $X^*$ is isometric to an $L_1$-space) or $X$ is a…
the main goal of this paper is to prove that any Banach space X, that every dual ball in X** is weak* -separable, or every weak* -closed convex subset in X** is weak* -separable, or every norm-closed convex set in X* is constructible,…
A Banach space is locally almost square if, for every $y$ in its unit sphere, there exists a sequence $(x_n)$ in its unit sphere such that $\lim\|y\pm x_n\|=1$. A Banach space is weakly almost square if, in addition, we require the sequence…
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 prove that every separable Banach space containing $\ell_1$ can be equivalently renormed so that its bidual space is octahedral, which answers, in the separable case, a question by Godefroy in 1989. As a direct consequence, we obtain…
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…
In Euclidean spaces, every closed, bounded, convex set can be characterized by two equivalent notions of separation properties. This is not true in general for arbitrary Banach spaces. In this work, we present a ball separation…
We prove that every isometry between the unit spheres of 2-dimensional Banach spaces extends to a linear isometry of the Banach spaces. This resolves the famous Tingley's problem in the class of 2-dimensional Banach spaces.
Given a finite covering by closed convex sets of $B_X$, the unit ball of an infinite-dimensional Banach space, we investigate whether there is a set of the covering that contains balls of radius close to $1$ and (a) arbitrarily high finite…
We prove that in Lipschitz-free spaces the strong diameter two property, the diameter two property, and the local diameter two property coincide with their corresponding attaining variants.
A Banach space $X$ is said to have Efremov's property ($\mathcal{E}$) if every element of the weak$^*$-closure of a convex bounded set $C \subseteq X^*$ is the weak$^*$-limit of a sequence in $C$. By assuming the Continuum Hypothesis, we…
The main result of the paper: Given any $\varepsilon>0$, every locally finite subset of $\ell_2$ admits a $(1+\varepsilon)$-bilipschitz embedding into an arbitrary infinite-dimensional Banach space. The result is based on two results which…
