We introduce a norm-controlled notion of semiprojectivity for Banach lattices, requiring liftability of contractive lattice homomorphisms through inductive limits of closed ideals with arbitrarily small loss of norm control. Our main result…

Given Banach spaces E and F, we denote by ${\mathcal P}(^k!E,F)$ the space of all k-homogeneous (continuous) polynomials from E into F, and by ${\mathcal P}_{wb}(^k!E,F)$ the subspace of polynomials which are weak-to-norm continuous on…

Suppose that (A_0,A_1) and (B_0,B_1) are Banach couples, and that T is a linear operator which maps A_0 compactly into B_0 and A_1 boundedly (or even compactly) into B_1. Does this imply that T maps [A_0,A_1]_s to [B_0,B_1]_s compactly for…

We investigate topologically left Noetherian Banach algebras. We show that if $G$ is a compact group, then $L^{\, 1}(G)$ is topologically left Noetherian if and only if $G$ is metrisable. We prove that, given a Banach space $E$ such that…

Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian group, and let $\omega:G \to [1,\infty)$ be a measurable weight, i.e., $\omega$ is measurable, and $\omega(s+t)\leq \omega(s)\omega(t)$ for all $s, t \in G$. Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a semisimple commutative…

It is shown that a separable Banach space $X$ can be given an equivalent norm $|\!|\!|\cdot |\!|\!|$ with the following properties:\quad If $(x_n)\subseteq X$ is relatively weakly compact and $\lim_{m\to\infty} \lim_{n\to\infty}\break…

A dual Banach algebra is a Banach algebra which is a dual space, with the multiplication being separately weak$^*$-continuous. We show that given a unital dual Banach algebra $\mc A$, we can find a reflexive Banach space $E$, and an…

We show that if a rearrangement invariant Banach function space $E$ on the positive semi-axis satisfies a non-trivial lower $q-$ estimate with constant $1$ then the corresponding space $E(\nm)$ of $\tau-$measurable operators, affiliated…

In [Laf08], [Laf09], Vincent Lafforgue proved strong Banach property (T) for $SL_3$ over a non archimedean local field $F.$ In this paper, we extend his results to $Sp_4$ and therefore to any connected almost $F$-simple algebraic group with…

We study operators carrying disjoint bounded subsets of a Banach lattice into compact, weakly compact, and limited subsets of a Banach space. Surprisingly, these operators behave differently with classical compact, weakly compact, and…

We show a few fixed point theorems for semigroups acting on weakly compact convex subsets of Banach spaces when $LUC(S), AP(S), WAP(S)$ or $WAP(S)\cap LUC(S)$ have a left invariant mean. In particular, we give a characterization of…

We construct a weak Hilbert Banach space such that for every block subspace $Y$ every bounded linear operator on Y is of the form D+S where S is a strictly singular operator and D is a diagonal operator. We show that this yields a weak…

This paper deals with the notion of weak Lawvere-Tierney topology on a topos. Our motivation to study such a notion is based on the observation that the composition of two Lawvere-Tierney topologies is no longer idempotent, when seen as a…

Let $T:Y\to X$ be a bounded linear operator between two normed spaces. We characterize compactness of $T$ in terms of differentiability of the Lipschitz functions defined on $X$ with values in another normed space $Z$. Furthermore, using a…

We prove that every lattice in a product of higher rank simple Lie groups or higher rank simple algebraic groups over local fields has Vincent Lafforgue's strong property (T). Over non-archimedean local fields, we also prove that they have…

Suppose $X$ and $Y$ are locally compact Hausdorff spaces, $E$ and $F$ are Banach spaces and $F$ is strictly convex. We show that every linear isometry $T$ from $C_0(X,E)$ {\em into} $C_0(Y,F)$ is essentially a weighted composition operator…

We initiate in this article the study of weakly exact structures, a generalization of Quillen exact structures. We introduce weak counterparts of one-sided exact structures and show that a left and a right weakly exact structure generate a…

A well-known theorem due to R. C. James states that a Banach space is reflexive if and only if every bounded linear functional attains its norm. In this note we study Banach lattices on which every (real-valued) lattice homomorphism attains…

In this paper we prove that if $E$ and $F$ are reflexive Banach spaces and $G$ is a closed linear subspace of the space $\mathcal{P}_{w}(^{n}E;F)$ of all $n$-homogeneous polynomials from $E$ to $F$ which are weakly continuous on bounded…

A Banach space $X$ has Pe{\l}czy\' nski's property (V) if for every Banach space $Y$ every unconditionally converging operator $T\colon X\to Y$ is weakly compact. In 1962, Aleksander Pe{\l}czy\' nski showed that $C(K)$ spaces for a compact…
