In this paper, we consider a condition on subspaces in order to improve bounds given in the Bernstein's Lethargy Theorem (BLT) for Banach spaces. Let $d_1 \geq d_2 \geq \dots d_n \geq \dots > 0$ be an infinite sequence of numbers converging…

In this paper, we prove the equivalence of reflexive Banach spaces and those Banach spaces which satisfy the following form of Bernstein's Lethargy Theorem. Let $X$ be an arbitrary infinite-dimensional Banach space, and let the real-valued…

In this paper, we examine the aptly-named "Lethargy Theorem" of Bernstein and survey its recent extensions. We show that one of these extensions shrinks the interval for best approximation by half while the other gives a surprising…

Shapiro's lethargy theorem states that if {A_n} is any non-trivial linear approximation scheme on a Banach space X, then the sequences of errors of best approximation E(x,A_n) = \inf_{a \in A_n} ||x - a_n||_X decay almost arbitrarily…

This paper contains two improvements on a theorem of S. N. Bernstein for Banach spaces. We show that if $X$ is an arbitrary infinite-dimensional Banach space, $\{Y_n\}$ is a sequence of strictly nested subspaces of $ X$ and if $\{d_n\}$ is…

In a previous paper (see arXiv:1003.3411 [math.CA]), we investigated the existence of an element x of a quasi-Banach space X whose errors of best approximation by a given approximation scheme (A_n) (defined by E(x,A_n) = \inf_{a \in A_n}…

For a sequence of vectors $\{v_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ in the uniformly convex Banach space $X$ which for all $n, m\in \mathbb{N}$ satisfy $\|v_{n+m}\|\le \|v_n + v_m\|$ we show the existence of the limit $\lim_{n\to \infty} \frac{v_n}{n}$.…

Existing concentration bounds for bounded vector-valued random variables include extensions of the scalar Hoeffding and Bernstein inequalities. While the latter is typically tighter, it requires knowing a bound on the variance of the random…

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…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and suppose $Y\subseteq X$ is a Banach space compactly embedded into $X$, and $(a_k)$ is a weakly null sequence of functionals in $X^*$. Then there exists a sequence $\{\varepsilon_n\} \searrow 0$ such that…

Answering one problem that has its origins in quantum mechanics, we prove that for any sequence $(A_n)_{n\in\mathbb N}$ of convex nowhere dense sets in a Banach space $X$ and any sequence $(\varepsilon_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ of positive real…

In this paper we establish some new results concerning the Cauchy-Peano problem in Banach spaces. Firstly, we prove that if a Banach space $E$ admits a fundamental biorthogonal system, then there exists a continuous vector field $f\colon…

We continue to study (strong) property-$(R_1)$ in Banach spaces. As discussed by Pai \& Nowroji in [{\it On restricted centers of sets}, J. Approx. Theory, {\bf 66}(2), 170--189 (1991)], this study corresponds to a triplet…

Let $(\mathbf{B}, \|\cdot\|)$ be a real separable Banach space. Let $\{X, X_{n}; n \geq 1\}$ be a sequence of i.i.d. {\bf B}-valued random variables and set $S_{n} = \sum_{i=1}^{n}X_{i},~n \geq 1$. Let $\{a_{n}; n \geq 1\}$ and $\{b_{n}; n…

~This paper presents a general result that allows for establishing a link between the Kolmogorov-Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund strong law of large numbers and Feller's strong law of large numbers in a Banach space setting. Let $\{X, X_{n}; n \geq…

We prove that for every $n\in \mathbb{N}$ there exists a metric space $(X,d_X)$, an $n$-point subset $S\subseteq X$, a Banach space $(Z,\|\cdot\|_Z)$ and a $1$-Lipschitz function $f:S\to Z$ such that the Lipschitz constant of every function…

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…

The aim of this paper is to prove the strong law of large numbers (SLLN) as well as the central limit theorem (CLT) for a class of vector-valued stochastic processes which arise as solutions of the stochastic evolution inclusion…

A novel nonlinear electrodynamics (NLE) model with two dimensionful parameters is introduced and investigated. Our model obeys the Maxwellian limit and exhibits behaviour similar to the Born-Infeld Lagrangian in the weak field limit. It is…

We study semiflows satisfying a certain squeezing condition with respect to a quadratic functional in some Banach space. Under certain compactness assumptions from our previous results it follows that there exists an invariant manifold,…
