The ``multiple of the inclusion plus compact problem'' which was posed by T.W. Gowers in 1996 and Th. Schlumprecht in 2003, asks whether for every infinite dimensional Banach space $X$ there exists a closed subspace $Y$ of $X$ and a bounded…

The paper deals with extension of bounded bilinear maps$.$ It gives a necessary and sufficient condition for extending a bounded bilinear map on the Cartesian product of subspaces of Banach spaces$.$ This leads to a full characterization…

In 1924, S. Banach and A. Tarski proved an astonishing, yet rather counterintuitive paradox: given a solid ball in $\mathbb{R}^3$, it is possible to partition it into finitely many pieces and reassemble them to form two solid balls, each…

We study the extension of holomorphic functions of bounded type defined on an open subset of a Banach space, to larger domains. For this, we first characterize the envelope of holomorphy of a Riemann domain over a Banach space, with respect…

It is an open problem whether an infinite-dimensional amenable Banach algebra exists whose underlying Banach space is reflexive. We give sufficient conditions for a reflexive, amenable Banach algebra to be finite-dimensional (and thus a…

We present some extensions of classical results that involve elements of the dual of Banach spaces, such as Bishop-Phelp's theorem and James' compactness theorem, but restricting to sets of functionals determined by geometrical properties.…

The question regarding the location of Banach spaces inside their biduals has been investigated and answered reasonably satisfactorily in the linear theory of Banach spaces. Thus, for instance, whereas it is known that a dual Banach space…

Let $BV_p[0,1]$, $1\le p<\infty$, be the Banach algebra of functions of bounded $p$-variation in the sense of Wiener. Recently, Kowalczyk and Turowska \cite{KT19} proved that the multiplication in $BV_1[0,1]$ is an open bilinear mapping. We…

In this paper, we investigate holomorphic mappings $F$ on the unit ball $\mathbb{B}$ of a complex Banach space of the form $F(x)=f(x)x$, where $f$ is a holomorphic function on $\mathbb{B}$. First, we investigate criteria for univalence,…

We extend the theory of operator-valued frames (resp. bases), hence the theory of frames (resp. bases), for Hilbert spaces and Hilbert C*-modules, in two folds. This extension leads us to develop the theory of operator-valued frames (resp.…

Building on a recent construction of G. Plebanek and the third named author, it is shown that a complemented subspace of a Banach lattice need not be linearly isomorphic to a Banach lattice. This solves a long-standing open question in…

This paper is devoted to a third order study of the end-point map in sub-Riemannian geometry. We first prove third order open mapping results for maps from a Banach space into a finite dimensional manifold. In a second step, we compute the…

We investigate certain envelopes of open sets in dual Banach spaces which are related to extending holomorphic functions. We give a variety of examples of absolutely convex sets showing that the extension is in many cases not possible. We…

We study pairs of Banach spaces $(X,Y)$, with $Y\subset X$, for which the thesis of Sobczyk's theorem holds, namely, such that every bounded $c_0$-valued operator defined in $Y$ extends to $X$. We are mainly concerned with the case when $X$…

We study different aspects of the connections between local theory of Banach spaces and the problem of the extension of bilinear forms from subspaces of Banach spaces. Among other results, we prove that if $X$ is not a Hilbert space then…

The main purpose of this paper is to develop some methods to investigate the Schwarz type lemmas of holomorphic mappings and pluriharmonic mappings in Banach spaces. Initially, we extend the classical Schwarz lemmas of holomorphic mappings…

A problem of Banach asks whether every infinite-dimensional Banach space which is isomorphic to all its infinite-dimensional subspaces must be isomorphic to a separable Hilbert space. In this paper we prove a result of a Ramsey-theoretic…

By extending the notion of Arens regularity of bilinear mappings, we say that a bounded trilinear map on Banach spaces id Aron--Berner regular when all its six Aron-Berner extensions to the bidual spaces coincide. We give some results on…

Given a set $B$ of operators between subspaces of $L_p$ spaces, we characterize the operators between subspaces of $L_p$ spaces that remain bounded on the $X$-valued $L_p$ space for every Banach space on which elements of the original class…

In this paper we prove a plenty of new results concerning summabililty properties of multilinear mappings between Banach spaces, such as an extension of Littlewood's 4/3 Theorem. Among other features, it is shown that every continuous…
