We give sufficient conditions on an asymptotic $\ell_p$ (for $1 < p < \infty$) Banach space which ensure the space admits an operator which is not a compact perturbation of a multiple of the identity. These conditions imply the existence of…

We consider 1-complemented subspaces (ranges of contractive projections) of vector-valued spaces $\ell_p(X)$, where $X$ is a Banach space with a 1-unconditional basis and $p \in (1,2)\cup (2,\infty)$. If the norm of $X$ is twice…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $(f_n)_n$ be a bounded sequence in $L^1(X)$. We prove a complemented version of the celebrated Talagrand's dichotomy i.e we show that if $(e_n)_n$ denotes the unit vector basis of $c_0$, there exists a sequence…

We give conditions on a pair of Banach spaces $X$ and $Y,$ under which each operator from $X$ to $Y,$ whose second adjoint factors compactly through the space $l^p,$ $1\le p\le+\infty$, itself compactly factors through $l^p.$ The conditions…

We consider a normalized basis in a Banach space with the following property: any normalized block sequence of the basis has a subsequence equivalent to the basis. We show that under uniformity or other natural assumptions, a basis with…

We show that for a sequence in a Banach space, the property of being stable under large perturbations characterizes the property of being equivalent to the unit vector basis of $l_1$. We show that a normalized unconditional basic sequence…

If $(M,g)$ is a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\ge 2$ we give necessary and sufficient conditions for improved $L^p(M)$-norms of eigenfunctions for all $2<p\ne p_c=\tfrac{2(n+1)}{n-1}$, the critical exponent. Since improved…

Let $1\leq p < \infty$ and $1\leq r \leq p^\ast$, where $p^\ast$ is the conjugate index of $p$. We prove an omnibus theorem, which provides numerous equivalences for a sequence $(x_n)$ in a Banach space $X$ to be a $(p,r)$-null sequence.…

A remarkable theorem of R. C. James is the following: suppose that $X$ is a Banach space and $C \subseteq X$ is a norm bounded, closed and convex set such that every linear functional $x^* \in X^*$ attains its supremum on $C$; then $C$ is a…

For each sequence X of finite-dimensional Banach spaces there exists a sequence H of finite connected nweighted graphs with maximum degree 3 such that the following conditions on a Banach space Y are equivalent: (1) Y admits uniformly…

We provide rates of convergence in the central limit theorem in terms of projective criteria for adapted stationary sequences of centered random variables taking values in Banach spaces, with finite moment of order $p \in ]2,3]$ as soon as…

We obtain some sufficient conditions for the Central Limit Theorem for the random processes (fields) with values in the separable part of Holder space in the modern terms of majorizing (minorizing) measures, belonging to X.Fernique and…

A banach space X is a normed vector space, which is complete with respect to the metric induced by the norm. Given a bounded linear operator T acting on a banach space X, T is said to attain its norm if there is a unit vector z in X, such…

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…

Let $X$ be a Banach space, and $M,N$ be two closed subspaces of $X$. We present several necessary and sufficient conditions for the closedness of $M+N$ ($M+N$ is not necessarily direct sum).

We consider the question whether there exists a Banach space $X$ of density continuum such that every Banach space of density not bigger than continuum isomorphically embeds into $X$ (called a universal Banach space of density $\cc$). It is…

Motivated by a problem stated by S.A.Argyros and Th. Raikoftsalis, we introduce a new class of Banach spaces. Namely, for a sequence of separable Banach spaces $(X_n,\|\cdot\|_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$, we define the Bourgain Delbaen…

The computation of the numerical index of a Banach space is an intriguing problem, even in case of two-dimensional real polyhedral Banach spaces. In this article we present a general method to estimate the numerical index of any…

Using the variational method, it is shown that the set of all strong peak functions in a closed algebra $A$ of $C_b(K)$ is dense if and only if the set of all strong peak points is a norming subset of $A$. As a corollary we can induce the…
