For each ordinal $\xi$ and each $1\leqslant q<\infty$, we define the notion of $\xi$-$q$-summable Szlenk index. When $\xi=0$ and $q=1$, this recovers the usual notion of summable Szlenk index. We define for an arbitrary weak$^*$-compact set…

Let $\mathcal A$ be a infinite dimensional C*-algebra and $1<p<\infty$. We compute the Szlenk index of $\mathcal A$ and $L_p(\mathcal A)$, and show that $Sz(\mathcal A)=\Gamma'(i(\mathcal A))$ and $Dz(\mathcal A)=Sz(L_p(\mathcal A))=\omega…

We study representations of Banach algebras on reflexive Banach spaces. Algebras which admit such representations which are bounded below seem to be a good generalisation of Arens regular Banach algebras; this class includes dual Banach…

We extend a precise renorming result of Godefroy, Kalton, and Lancien regarding asymptotically uniformly smooth norms of separable Banach spaces with Szlenk index $\omega$. For every ordinal $\xi$, we characterize the operators, and…

We provide a short calculation of the Szlenk index of $C(K)$ spaces using the Grasberg norm.

We study the nonlinear embeddability of Banach spaces and the equi-embeddability of the family of Kalton's interlaced graphs $([\mathbb N]^k,d_{\mathbb K})_k$ into dual spaces. Notably, we define and study a modification of Kalton's…

In this note we extend to the quasi-reflexive setting the result of F. Baudier, N. Kalton and G. Lancien concerning the non-embeddability of the family of countably branching trees into reflexive Banach spaces whose Szlenk index and Szlenk…

The primary objective of this paper is to develop methodologies for investigating Schwarz type lemmas and to present their applications in Banach spaces. First, we improve upon the main results obtained by Osserman [Proc. Am. Math. Soc.…

In this paper, we study some families of right modules of quaternionic slice regular functions induced by a generalized fractal-fractional derivative with respect to a truncated quaternionic exponential function on slices. Important Banach…

We introduce two new local l_1-indices of the same type as the Bourgain l_1 index; the l_1^+-index and the l_1^+-weakly null index. We show that the l_1^+-weakly null index of a Banach space X is the same as the Szlenk index of X, provided…

We review and analyse techniques from the literature for extending a normed algebra, A to a normed algebra, B, so that B has interesting or desirable properties which A may lack. For example, B might include roots of monic polynomials over…

For $\alpha$ an ordinal and $1<p<\infty$, we determine a necessary and sufficient condition for an $\ell_p$-direct sum of operators to have Szlenk index not exceeding $\omega^\alpha$. It follows from our results that the Szlenk index of an…

We compute the Szlenk index of an arbitrary projective tensor product $C(K)\widehat{\otimes}_\pi C(L)$ of spaces $C(K), C(L)$ of continuous functions on scattered, compact, Hausdorff spaces. In particular, we show that it is simply equal to…

Given any compact, Hausdorff space $K$ and $1<p<\infty$, we compute the Szlenk and $w^*$-dentability indices of the spaces $C(K)$ and $L_p(C(K))$. We show that if $K$ is compact, Hausdorff, scattered, $CB(K)$ is the Cantor-Bendixson index…

In this paper we show the weak Banach-Saks property of the Banach vector space $(L_\mu^p)^m$ generated by $m$ $L_\mu^p$-spaces for $1\leq p<+\infty,$ where $m$ is any given natural number. When $m=1,$ this is the famous Banach-Saks-Szlenk…

We introduce slicely countably determined points (SCD points) of a bounded and convex subset of a Banach space which extends the notions of denting points, strongly regular points and much more. We completely characterize SCD points in the…

We provide some new consequences on the Lipschitz numerical radius and index which were introduced recently. More precisely, we give some renorming results on the Lipschitz numerical index, introduce a concept of Lipschitz numerical radius…

We prove that if $Y$ is a closed subspace of a Banach space $X$ such that $Y$ and $X/Y$ admit an equivalent asymptotically uniformly smooth norm, then $X$ also admits an equivalent asymptotically uniformly smooth norm. The proof is based on…

We survey elementary results in Minkowski spaces (i.e. finite dimensional Banach spaces) that deserve to be collected together, and give simple proofs for some of them. We place special emphasis on planar results. Many of these results have…

We shall first study summability of families in normed spaces indexed with well ordered sets of real numbers extended by infinity. Obtained results and a generalized iteration method are applied to derive necessary and sufficient conditions…
