Recently there has been interest in pairs of Banach spaces $(E_0,E)$ in an $o-O$ relation and with $E_0^{**}=E$. It is known that this can be done for Lipschitz spaces on suitable metric spaces. In this paper we consider the case of a…

We study strong linearisations and the uniqueness of preduals of locally convex Hausdorff spaces of scalar-valued functions. Strong linearisations are special preduals. A locally convex Hausdorff space $\mathcal{F}(\Omega)$ of scalar-valued…

This paper is devoted to providing a unifying approach to the study of the uniqueness of unconditional bases, up to equivalence and permutation, of infinite direct sums of quasi-Banach spaces. Our new approach to this type of problem…

Let $Q$ denote the space of signed measures on the Borel $\sigma$-algebra of a separable complete space $X$. We endow $Q$ with the norm $\|q\|=\sup|\int\phi dq|$, where the supremum is taken over all Lipschitz with constant 1 functions…

In this paper, we consider the directional differentiability of metric projection and its properties in uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Bochner space Lp(S; X), in which (S, A, mu) is a positive measure space and X is a uniformly…

Naor and Mendel's metric cotype extends the notion of the Rademacher cotype of a Banach space to all metric spaces. Every Banach space has metric cotype at least 2. We show that any metric space that is bi-Lipschitz equivalent to an…

A Banach space (or its norm) is said to have the diameter $2$ property (D$2$P in short) if every nonempty relatively weakly open subset of its closed unit ball has diameter $2$. We construct an equivalent norm on $L_1[0,1]$ which is weakly…

Let $X$ be a pointed compact metric space. Assuming that $\mathrm{lip}_0(X)$ has the uniform separation property, we prove that every weakly compact composition operator on spaces of Lipschitz functions $\mathrm{Lip}_0(X)$ and…

If $X$ is an infinite-dimensional uniform algebra, if $X$ has the Daugavet property or if $X$ is a proper $M$-embedded space, every relatively weakly open subset of the unit ball of the Banach space $X$ is known to have diameter 2, i.e.,…

We study the numerical radius of Lipschitz operators on Banach spaces via the Lipschitz numerical index, which is an analogue of the numerical index in Banach space theory. We give a characterization of the numerical radius and obtain a…

The goal of this paper is to study geometric and extremal properties of the convex body $B_{\mathcal F(M)}$, which is the unit ball of the Lipschitz-free Banach space associated with a finite metric space $M$. We investigate $\ell_1$ and…

It is an open problem whether an infinite-dimensional amenable Banach algebra exists whose underlying Banach space is reflexive. We give sufficient conditions for a reflexive, amenable Banach algebra to be finite-dimensional (and thus a…

We show that any non-zero Banach space with a separable dual contains a totally disconnected, closed and bounded subset S of Hausdorff dimension 1 such that every Lipschitz function on the space is Fr\'echet differentiable somewhere in S.

In this note we study the structure of Lipschitz-free Banach spaces. We show that every Lipschitz-free Banach space over an infinite metric space contains a complemented copy of $\ell_1$. This result has many consequences for the structure…

We show some new results about tilings in Banach spaces. A tiling of a Banach space $X$ is a covering by closed sets with non-empty interior so that they have pairwise disjoint interiors. If moreover the tiles have inner radii uniformly…

The main purpose of the paper is to prove the following results: Let $A$ be a locally finite metric space whose finite subsets admit uniformly bilipschitz embeddings into a Banach space $X$. Then $A$ admits a bilipschitz embedding into $X$.…

In the present paper we introduce and study the Lipschitz retractional structure of metric spaces. This topic was motivated by the analogous projectional structure of Banach spaces, a topic that has been thoroughly investigated. The more…

One of the fundamental results of ergodic optimisation asserts that for any dynamical system on a compact metric space $X$ and for any Banach space of continuous real-valued functions on $X$ which embeds densely in $C(X)$ there exists a…

On metric spaces equipped with doubling measures, we prove that a differentiability theorem holds for Lipschitz functions if and only if the space supports nontrivial (metric) derivations in the sense of Weaver that satisfy an additional…

We continue with the study of octahedral norms in the context of spaces of Lipschitz functions and in their duals. First, we prove that the norm of $\mathcal F(M)^{**}$ is octahedral as soon as $M$ is unbounded or is not uniformly discrete.…
