The powerful concept of an operator ideal on the class of all Banach spaces makes sense in the real and in the complex case. In both settings we may, for example, consider compact, nuclear, or $2$--summing operators, where the definitions…

We study certain Banach spaces that are added in the extension by one Cohen real. Specifically, we show that adding just one Cohen real to any model adds a Banach space of density $\aleph_1$ which does not embed into any such space in the…

Hereditarily indecomposable Banach spaces may have density at most continuum (Plichko-Yost, Argyros-Tolias). In this paper we show that this cannot be proved for indecomposable Banach spaces. We provide the first example of an…

We show that there are uncountably many countable lattices. We give a discussion of which such lattices can be modular or distributive. The method applies to show that certain other classes of structures also have uncountably many…

For a countable ordinal a we denote by C_a the class of separable, reflexive Banach spaces whose Szlenk index and the Szlenk index of their dual are bounded by a. We show that each C_a admits a separable, reflexive universal space. We also…

We characterize those classes $\ccc$ of separable Banach spaces admitting a separable universal space $Y$ (that is, a space $Y$ containing, up to isomorphism, all members of $\ccc$) which is not universal for all separable Banach spaces.…

Recent developments in Banach space theory provided unexpected examples of unital Banach algebras that are isomorphic to Calkin algebras of Banach spaces, however no example of a unital Banach algebra that cannot be realised as a~Calkin…

We construct an infinite dimensional non-unital Banach algebra $A$ and $a\in A$ such that the sets $\{za^n:z\in\C,\ n\in\N\}$ and $\{({\bf 1}+a)^na:n\in\N\}$ are both dense in $A$, where $\bf 1$ is the unity in the unitalization…

Given a map $f \colon E \longrightarrow F$ between Banach spaces (or Banach lattices), a set $A$ of $E$-valued bounded sequences, ${\bf x} \in A$ and a vector topology $\tau$ on $F$, we investigate the existence of an infinite dimensional…

In this note, we will discuss how to relate an operator ideal on Banach spaces to the sequential structures it defines. Concrete examples of ideals of compact, weakly compact, completely continuous, Banach-Saks and weakly Banach-Saks…

We show that a complemented subspace of a locally convex direct sum of an uncountable collection of Banach spaces is a locally convex direct sum of complemented subspaces of countable subsums. As a corollary we prove that a complemented…

For every $\alpha<\omega_1$ we establish the existence of a separable Banach space whose Szlenk index is $\omega^{\alpha\omega+1}$ and which is universal for all separable Banach spaces whose Szlenk-index does not exceed…

In this paper structure of infinite dimensional Banach spaces is studied by using an asymptotic approach based on stabilization at infinity of finite dimensional subspaces which appear everywhere far away. This leads to notions of…

A group G is representable in a Banach space X if G is isomorphic to the group of isometries on X in some equivalent norm. We prove that a countable group G is representable in a separable real Banach space X in several general cases,…

We introduce the class of slicely countably determined Banach spaces which contains in particular all spaces with the RNP and all spaces without copies of $\ell_1$. We present many examples and several properties of this class. We give some…

We prove that, given any covering of any separable infinite-dimensional uniformly rotund and uniformly smooth Banach space $X$ by closed balls each of positive radius, some point exists in $X$ which belongs to infinitely many balls.

Given an infinite matrix $M=(m_{nk})$ we study a family of sequence spaces $\ell_M^p$ associated with it. When equipped with a suitable norm $\|\cdot\|_{M,p}$ we prove some basic properties of the Banach spaces of sequences…

We propose the definition of a Manifold with a complex Lie structure at infinity. The important class of ACH manifolds enters into this class.

We show that a (complex) $C_\sigma$-space is separably injective if and only if it is linearly isometric to the Banach space $C_0(\Omega)$ of complex continuous functions vanishing at infinity on a substonean locally compact Hausdorff space…

In this paper, we consider the structure of maximally monotone operators in Banach space whose domains have nonempty interior and we present new and explicit structure formulas for such operators. Along the way, we provide new proofs of the…
