The medial axis $M_X$ of a closed set $X\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is the set of points from the ambient space that admit more than one closest point in $X$. We study the problem of reaching the singularities, i.e. of characterising the points…

We say that X x Y satisfies the Uniquely Universal property (UU) iff there exists a set U open in X x Y such that for every open set W in Y there is a unique cross section U_x of U with U_x=W. Michael Hrusak raised the question of when does…

We prove that Hilbert space is distortable and, in fact, arbitrarily distortable. This means that for all lambda >1 there exists an equivalent norm |.| on l_2 such that for all infinite dimensional subspaces Y of l_2 there exist x,y in Y…

We prove that the predual, $M_*$, of a JBW$^*$-triple $M$ is a 1-Plichko space (i.e. it admits a countably 1-norming Markushevich basis or, equivalently, it has a commutative 1-projectional skeleton), and obtain a natural description of the…

In this paper, we study the problem of finding the extremal element for a linear functional over a uniformly convex Banach space. We show that a unique extremal element exists and depends continuously on the linear functional, and vice…

Let X be an L1-predual and E,F be Banach spaces. We use the fact that an unconditionally converging operator T from the injective tensor product of X and E to F is strongly bounded and extend T to an operator S on continuous F-valued…

Let (X, d) be a quasi-convex, complete and separable metric space with reference probability measure m. We prove that the set of of real valued Lipschitz function with non zero point-wise Lipschitz constant m-almost everywhere is residual,…

We describe the surjective isometries of the unit sphere of real Schreier spaces of all orders and their $p$-convexifications, for $1 < p < \infty$. This description allows us to provide for those spaces a positive answer to a special case…

A generalization of Lozanovskii's result is proved. Let E be $k$-dimensional subspace of an $n$-dimensional Banach space with unconditional basis. Then there exist $x_1,..,x_k \subset E$ such that $B_E \p \subset \p absconv\{x_1,..,x_k\}$…

We study several properties and applications of the ultrapower $M_{\mathcal U}$ of a metric space $M$. We prove that the Lipschitz-free space $\mathcal F(M_{\mathcal U})$ is finitely representable in $\mathcal F(M)$. We also characterize…

We prove that a typical Lipschitz mapping between any two Banach spaces is non-differentiable at typical points of any given subset of its domain in the most extreme form. This is a new result even for Lipschitz mappings between Euclidean…

We construct, for a locally compact metric space $X$, a space of polylipschitz forms $\bar\Gamma^*_c(X)$, which is a pre-dual for the space of metric currents of $\mathscr{D}_*(X)$ Ambrosio and Kirchheim. These polylipschitz forms may be…

We prove that the equation d-bar u = f can be solved on a ball B(R) of radius R in the Banach space l^1 if f is a closed Lipschitz continuous (0,1) form on B(R). We also present examples of closed (0,1) forms f of various regularities on…

Let X be a real uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space and C a nonempty closed and convex subset of X. Let Pc from X to C denote the (standard) metric projection operator. In this paper, we define the Gateaux directional…

We describe all metric spaces that have sufficently many affine functions. As an application we obtain a metric characterization of linear-convex subsets of Banach spaces.

The famous Michael selection theorem deals with the characterisation of paracompact spaces by continuous selections of lower semi-continuous mappings in Banach spaces. In this paper, we will discuss several equivalent forms of this theorem,…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be length metric spaces. Let $\mathcal H^n$ denote the $n$-dimensional Hausdorff measure. The Lipschitz-Volume Rigidity is a property that if there exists a 1-Lipschitz map $f\colon X\to Y$ and $0<\mathcal H^n(X)=\mathcal…

In the nonlinear geometry of Banach spaces where the objects in the category are Banach spaces as in the linear case, the morphisms in the new setting are taken to comprise of certain nonlinear maps involving say, Lipschitz maps and, in…

We introduce slicely countably determined points (SCD points) of a bounded and convex subset of a Banach space which extends the notions of denting points, strongly regular points and much more. We completely characterize SCD points in the…
