We characterize $k-$smoothness of bounded linear operators defined between infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces. We study the problem in the setting of both finite and infinite-dimensional Banach spaces. We also characterize $k-$smoothness…

In this note we investigate some aspects of the local structure of finite dimensional $p$-Banach spaces. The well known theorem of Gluskin gives a sharp lower bound of the diameter of the Minkowski compactum. In [Gl] it is proved that…

For a metric space $(K,d)$ the Banach space $\Lip(K)$ consists of all scalar-valued bounded Lipschitz functions on $K$ with the norm $\|f\|_{L}=\max(\|f\|_{\infty},L(f))$, where $L(f)$ is the Lipschitz constant of $f$. The closed subspace…

Let $E$ be a Banach space, and $\mathcal B(E)$ the algebra of all bounded linear operators on $E$. The question of amenability of $\mathcal B(E)$ goes back to Johnson's seminal memoir \cite{johnson} from 1972. We present the first general…

The notion of maximal extension of a globally hyperbolic space-time arises from the notion of maximal solutions of the Cauchy problem associated to the Einstein's equations of general relativity. In 1969 Choquet-Bruhat and Geroch proved…

We revisit an ingenious argument of K. Ball to provide sharp estimates for the volume of sections of a convex body in John's position. Our technique combines the geometric Brascamp-Lieb inequality with a generalised Parseval-type identity.…

We study the Hausdorff distance between a set and its convex hull. Let $X$ be a Banach space, define the CHD-module of space $X$ as the supremum of this distance for all subset of the unit ball in $X$. In the case of finite dimensional…

The aim of this work is to deal with effective questions related to the Kobayashi and Debarre conjectures, and based on the work of Damian Brotbek and Lionel Darondeau. We first show that if a line bundle $L$ generates $k$-jets, the $k$-th…

Let $\lambda_1(G)\ge \lambda_2(G)\ge \cdots \ge \lambda_n(G)$ denote the adjacency eigenvalues of a graph $G$ of order $n$. We prove that for every $k\geq 2$ and every graph $G$ on $n\geq k$ vertices, $$ \lambda_k(G)\le…

Let $\mathbb D^n\subset\mathbb C^n$ be the open unit polydisk, $K\subset\mathbb D^n$ be an $n$-ary Cartesian product of planar sets, and $\hat U\subset \mathfrak M^n$ be an open neighbourhood of the closure $\bar K$ of $K$ in $\mathfrak…

We construct a Banach space X of Gowers-Maurey type such that the algebra of bounded operators L(X) is a direct sum of an infinite dimensional reflexive Banach space and the operator ideal of strictly singular operators SS(X).

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.…

This article is a continuation of a paper of the first author \cite{F} about complex structures on real Banach spaces. We define a notion of even infinite dimensional real Banach space, and prove that there exist even spaces, including HI…

We study the vector-valued spectrum $\mathcal{M}_\infty(B_{c_0},B_{c_0})$, that is, the set of non null algebra homomorphisms from $\mathcal H^\infty(B_{c_0})$ to $\mathcal H^\infty(B_{c_0})$ which is naturally projected onto the closed…

We present some old and new results on a class of invariant spaces of holomorphic functions on symmetric domains, both in their circular bounded realizations and in their unbounded realizations as Siegel domains of type II. These spaces…

It is shown that every set I(m) of Banach lattices of measurable functions defined on a measure space (Q,S,m), equipped with a some natural ordering became a modular lattice, which is Dedekind complete provided m is a probability measure.…

We investigate the problem of a characterization of extreme points of the unit ball of a Hardy-Lorentz space $H(\Lambda(\varphi))$, posed by Semenov in 1978. New necessary and sufficient conditions, under which a normalized function $f$ in…

Let $\mathbb B_n$ be the open unit ball in $\mathbb C^n$. We characterize the spectra of pointwise multipliers $M_u$ acting on Banach spaces of analytic functions on $\mathbb B_n$ satisfying some general conditions. These spaces include…

We study the notions of acs, luacs and uacs Banach spaces which were introduced by V. Kadets et al. in 2000 and form common generalisations of the usual rotundity and smoothness properties of Banach spaces. In particular, we are interested…

In most classical holomorphic function spaces on the unit disk, a function $f$ can be approximated in the norm of the space by its dilates $f\_r(z):=f(rz)~(r \textless{} 1)$. We show that this is \emph{not} the case for the de…
