In this note, in particular, we establish the following result: Let $X$ be a real Banach space, $\varphi\in X^*\setminus \{0\}$ and $\psi:X\to {\bf R}$ a Lipschitzian functional with Lipschitz constant equal to $\varphi\|_X^{*}$. Then, we…

We show that no matter what subset of a normed space is given, a typical 1-Lipschitz mapping into a Banach space is non-differentiable at a typical point of the set in a very strong sense: the derivative ratio approximates, on arbitrary…

We introduce and investigate a quantitative version of Steinhaus' property $(S)$ for Banach spaces, called the uniform property $(S)$. A Banach space $X$ is said to have uniform $(S)$ if for every pair of distinct unit vectors $x,y\in X$…

It is well known that in the calculus of variations and in optimization there exist many formulations of the fundamental propositions on the attainment of the infima of sequentially weakly lower semicontinuous coercive functions on…

We show a Wolff-Denjoy type theorem in complete geodesic spaces in the spirit of Beardon's framework that unifies several results in this area. In particular, it applies to strictly convex bounded domains in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ or…

Following results of Bourgain and Gorelik we show that the spaces $\ell_p$, $1<p<\infty$, as well as some related spaces have the following uniqueness property: If $X$ is a Banach space uniformly homeomorphic to one of these spaces then it…

We prove that if $Y$ is a locally asymptotically midpoint uniformly convex Banach space which has either a normalized, symmetric basic sequence that is not equivalent to the unit vector basis in $\ell_1$, or a normalized sequence with upper…

We characterise those Banach spaces $X$ which satisfy that $L(Y,X)$ is octahedral for every non-zero Banach space $Y$. They are those satisfying that, for every finite dimensional subspace $Z$, $\ell_\infty$ can be finitely-representable in…

Rademacher theorem states that every Lipschitz function on the Euclidean space is differentiable almost everywhere, where "almost everywhere" refers to the Lebesgue measure. In this paper we prove a differentiability result of similar type,…

The paper considers the Ricci flow, coupled with the harmonic map flow between two manifolds. We derive estimates for the fundamental solution of the corresponding conjugate heat equation and we prove an analog of Perelman's differential…

A description of the Bloch functions that can be approximated in the Bloch norm by functions in the Hardy space $H^p$ of the unit ball of $\Cn$ for $0<p<\infty$ is given. When $0<p\leq1$, the result is new even in the case of the unit disk.

Let $(\mathcal{X}, \rho, \mu)$ be a metric measure space of homogeneous type which supports a certain Poincar\'e inequality. Denote by the symbol $\mathcal{C}_{\mathrm{c}}^\ast(\mathcal{X})$ the space of all continuous functions $f$ with…

The main goal of the present paper is to provide sharp hypercontractivity bounds of the heat flow $({\sf H}_t)_{t\geq 0}$ on ${\sf RCD}(0,N)$ metric measure spaces. The best constant in this estimate involves the asymptotic volume ratio,…

We prove the existence of functions $f$ in the Bloch space of the unit ball $\mathbb{B}_N$ of $\mathbb{C}^N$ with the property that, given any measurable function $\varphi$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}_N$, there exists a sequence…

We investigate the differentiability properties of real-valued quasiconvex functions f defined on a separable Banach space X. Continuity is only assumed to hold at the points of a dense subset. If so, this subset is automatically residual.…

Convection of an internally heated fluid, confined between top and bottom plates of equal temperature, is studied by direct numerical simulation in two and three dimensions. The unstably stratified upper region drives convection that…

The heat transfer mechanism in Rayleigh-Benard convection in a liquid with a mean temperature close to its boiling point is studied through numerical simulations with point-like vapor bubbles, which are allowed to grow or shrink through…

Let $T$ be an operator on a Hilbert space $H$ with numerical radius $w(T)\le1$. According to a theorem of Berger and Stampfli, if $f$ is a function in the disk algebra such that $f(0)=0$, then $w(f(T))\le\|f\|_\infty$. We give a new and…

It is well known, as follows from the Banach-Steinhaus theorem, that if a sequence $\left\{y_{n}\right\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ of linear continuous functionals in a Fr\'echet space converges pointwise to a linear functional $Y,$ $Y\left( x\right)…

We prove that the linear heat flow in a RCD(K,\infty) metric measure space (X,d,m) satisfies a contraction property with respect to every L^p-Kantorovich-Rubinstein-Wasserstein distance. In particular, we obtain a precise estimate for the…
