Let $\Bc$ denote the real-valued functions continuous on the extended real line and vanishing at $-\infty$. Let $\Br$ denote the functions that are left continuous, have a right limit at each point and vanish at $-\infty$. Define $\acn$ to…

Let G be a locally compact group. Consider the Banach algebra L_1(G)^**, equipped with the first Arens multiplication, as well as the algebra LUC(G)^*, the dual of the space of bounded left uniformly continuous functions on G, whose product…

We prove that every separable Banach space containing $\ell_1$ can be equivalently renormed so that its bidual space is octahedral, which answers, in the separable case, a question by Godefroy in 1989. As a direct consequence, we obtain…

The notion of nonpositive curvature in Alexandrov's sense is extended to include p-uniformly convex Banach spaces. Infinite dimensional manifolds of semi-negative curvature with a p-uniformly convex tangent norm fall in this class on…

Hurewicz proved completely metrizable Menger spaces are /sigma-compact. We extend this to Cech-complete Menger spaces and consistently to projective Menger metrizable spaces. On the other hand, it is consistent that there is a co-analytic…

We study weighted $H^\infty$ spaces of analytic functions on the open unit disc in the case of non-doubling weights, which decrease rapidly with respect to the boundary distance. We characterize the solid hulls of such spaces and give quite…

In this paper we investigate some reflexivity-type properties of separable measurable Banach bundles over a $\sigma$-finite measure space. Our two main results are the following: - The fibers of a bundle are uniformly convex (with a common…

A gauge $\gamma$ in a vector space $X$ is a distance function given by the Minkowski functional associated to a convex body $K$ containing the origin in its interior. Thus, the outcoming concept of gauge spaces $(X, \gamma)$ extends that of…

We present a construction that enables one to find Banach spaces $X$ whose sets $NA(X)$ of norm attaining functionals do not contain two-dimensional subspaces and such that, consequently, $X$ does not contain proximinal subspaces of finite…

In this paper, the notion of semi-compact perturbation of a closed linear subspace is introduced. Then for a of pair of closed linear subspace of a Banach space such that one is a semi-compact perturbation of the other, it is proved that…

We introduce a new topological property called (*) and the corresponding class of topological spaces, which includes spaces with $G_\delta$-diagonals and Gruenhage spaces. Using (*), we characterise those Banach spaces which admit…

We study the relation between octahedral norms, Daugavet property and the size of convex combinations of slices in Banach spaces. We prove that the norm of an arbitrary Banach space is octahedral if, and only if, every convex combination of…

In this article, we study the Daugavet property and the diametral diameter two properties in complex Banach spaces. The characterizations for both Daugavet and $\Delta$-points are revisited in the context of complex Banach spaces. We also…

We consider topological invariants on compact spaces related to the sizes of discrete subspaces (spread), densities of subspaces, Lindelof degree of subspaces, irredundant families of clopen sets and others and look at the following…

The concept of a profile decomposition formalizes concentration compactness arguments on the functional-analytic level, providing a powerful refinement of the Banach-Alaoglu weak-star compactness theorem. We prove existence of profile…

We introduce the class of slicely countably determined Banach spaces which contains in particular all spaces with the RNP and all spaces without copies of $\ell_1$. We present many examples and several properties of this class. We give some…

We consider the modulus of noncompact convexity $\Delta_{X,\phi}(\varepsilon)$ associated with the minimalizable measure of noncompactness $\phi$. We present some properties of this modulus, while the main result of this paper is showing…

Given a Banach space X, denote by SP_{w}(X) the set of equivalence classes of spreading models of X generated by normalized weakly null sequences in X. It is known that SP_{w}(X) is a semilattice, i.e., it is a partially ordered set in…

We investigate some properties and convergence theorem of Kluv\'{a}nek-Lewis-Henstock $\m-$integrability for $\m-$measurable functions that we introduced in \cite{ABH}. We give a $\m-$a.e. convergence version of Dominated (resp. Bounded)…
