It is folklore that the sum of two $M$-ideals (semi $M$-ideals) is also an $M$-ideal (a semi $M$-ideal). Numerous authors have attempted to investigate such properties of subspaces. This article explores two important facets of…

For $1< p <2$ we obtain sharp inequalities for the supremum of products of homogeneous polynomials on $L_p(\mu)$, whenever the number of factors is no greater than the dimension of these Banach spaces (a condition readily satisfied in the…

We construct for each $0<p\le 1$ an infinite collection of subspaces of $\ell_p$ that extend the example from [J. Lindenstrauss, On a certain subspace of $\ell_{1}$, Bull. Acad. Polon. Sci. S\'er. Sci. Math. Astronom. Phys. 12 (1964),…

Let $X$ be a topological vector space of complex-valued sequences and $Y$ be a subset of $X$. We provide conditions for $X \setminus Y \cup \{0\}$ to contain uncountably infinitely many linearly independent dense vector subspaces of $X$. We…

In a previous work, the first named author described the set $\cal P$ of all values of the Szlenk indices of separable Banach spaces. We complete this result by showing that for any integer $n$ and any ordinal $\alpha$ in $\cal P$, there…

It is proved that if a Banach space $X$ has a basis $(e_n)$ satisfying every spreading model of a normalized block basis of $(e_n)$ is 1-equivalent to the unit vector basis of $\ell_1$ (respectively, $c_0$) then $X$ contains $\ell_1$…

In this paper we relate the geometry of Banach spaces to the theory of differential equations, apparently in a new way. We will construct Banach function space norms arising as weak solutions to ordinary differential equations of first…

Our main result concerns the following condition: {\bf Condition C.} Let $X$ be a Banach space. A $C^1$ function $f:X\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ satisfies Condition C if whenever $\{x_n\}$ weakly converges to $x$ and $\lim…

Given a bounded linear operator $T$ on a separable Banach space with property $(M_p)$, we prove that the smallest and the largest norm of weak cluster points of all maximizing sequences for $T$ can only take the values $0$ or $1$. The three…

This paper exemplifies that saturation is an indispensable structure on measure spaces to obtain the existence and characterization of solutions to nonconvex variational problems with integral constraints in Banach spaces and their dual…

We study some aspects of countably additive vector measures with values in $\ell_\infty$ and the Banach lattices of real-valued functions that are integrable with respect to such a vector measure. On the one hand, we prove that if $W…

Hyt\"onen, McIntosh and Portal (J. Funct. Anal., 2008) proved two vector-valued generalizations of the classical Carleson embedding theorem, both of them requiring the boundedness of a new vector-valued maximal operator, and the other one…

We propose and analyze variational source conditions (VSC) for the Tikhonov regularization method with Lp-norm penalties for a general ill-posed operator equation in a Banach space. Our analysis is based on the use of the celebrated…

In this note we study Banach spaces of traces of real polynomials on $\mathbb R^n$ to compact subsets equipped with supremum norms from the point of view of Geometric Functional Analysis.

If $X$ is a closed subspace of a Banach space $L$ which embeds into a Banach lattice not containing $\ell_\infty^n$'s uniformly and $L/X$ contains $\ell_\infty^n$'s uniformly, then $X$ cannot have local unconditional structure in the sense…

A Banach space X with closed unit ball B is said to have property 2-beta, repsectively 2-NUC if for every \ep > 0, there exists \delta > 0 such that for every \ep-separated sequence (x_n) in the unit ball B, and every x in B, there are…

Given a Banach space $X$ and a real number $\alpha\ge 1$, we write: (1) $D(X)\le\alpha$ if, for any locally finite metric space $A$, all finite subsets of which admit bilipschitz embeddings into $X$ with distortions $\le C$, the space $A$…

We introduce an ordinal index which characterizes weak compactness of operators between Banach spaces. We study when classes consisting of operators having bounded index form a closed ideal, the distinctness of the classes, and the…

In this paper, our main aim is to extend a classical theorem of Phelps on norm-attaining functionals from the space of scalar-valued continuous functions $C(\Omega)$ to its vector-valued counterpart $C(\Omega, X)$. One of our main results…

It is shown that any Banach space X of sufficiently large density contains an (infinite) unconditional sequence and a separable quotient. If a density of X is a weakly compact cardinal, then X contains an unconditional sequence of…
