A topological space $Y$ has the property (B) of Banakh if there is a countable family $\{A_n:n\in \mathbb{N}\}$ of closed nowhere dense subsets of $Y$ absorbing all compact subsets of $Y$. In this note we show that the space $C_p(X)$ of…

We prove that the real parts of equivariant (but non-invariant) eigenfunctions of generic bundle metrics on nontrivial principal $S^1$ bundles over manifolds of any dimension have connected nodal sets and exactly 2 nodal domains. This…

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…

We study linear and algebraic structures in sets of bounded holomorphic functions on the ball which have large cluster sets at every possible point (i.e., every point on the sphere in several complex variables and every point of the closed…

It is shown that a Banach space admits an equivalent norm whose modulus of uniform convexity has power-type p if and only if it is Markov p-convex. Counterexamples are constructed to natural questions related to isomorphic uniform convexity…

Let $M$ be a complete, non-compact, connected Riemannian manifold with Ricci curvature bounded from below by a negative constant. A sufficient condition is obtained for open and connected sets $D$ in $M$ for which the corresponding…

A classical result of Cembranos and Freniche states that the C(K, X) spaces contains a complemented copy of c_0 whenever K is an infinite compact Hausdorff space and X is an infinite dimensional Banach space. This paper takes this result as…

We study the specification property for partially hyperbolic dynamical systems. In particular, we show that if a partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism has two saddles with different indices, and stable manifold of one of them coincides with…

In 1999, Bates, Johnson, Lindenstrauss, Preiss and Schechtman asked whether a Banach space that is a uniform quotient of $\ell_p$, $1 < p \neq 2 < \infty$, must be isomorphic to a linear quotient of $\ell_p$. We apply the geometric property…

In the paper we discuss conformable derivative behavior in arbitrary Banach spaces and clear the connection between two conformable derivatives of different order. As a consequence we obtain the important result that an abstract function…

We provide a version for operators of the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'{a}s Theorem when the domain space is the complex space $C_0(L)$. In fact we prove that the pair $(C_0(L), Y)$ satisfies the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'{a}s property for operators…

We work in set-theory without choice ZF. Denoting by AC(N) the countable axiom of choice, we show in ZF+AC(N) that the closed unit ball of a uniformly convex Banach space is compact in the convex topology (an alternative to the weak…

We construct a totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space N which has clopen subsets M included in L included in N such that N is homeomorphic to M and hence C(N) is isometric as a Banach space to C(M) but C(N) is not isomorphic to C(L).…

We present new completeness conditions for exponential systems on the complex plane in Banach algebras of continuous functions on a compact with a connected complement that are simultaneously holomorphic in the interior of this compact if…

We study extreme contractions in the setting of finite-dimensional polyhedral Banach spaces. Motivated by the famous Krein-Milman Theorem, we prove that a \emph{rank one} norm one linear operator between such spaces can be expressed as a…

We show that a Banach space with numerical index one cannot enjoy good convexity or smoothness properties unless it is one-dimensional. For instance, it has no WLUR points in its unit ball, its norm is not Frechet smooth and its dual norm…

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…

In this article, we introduce a geometrical notion, property strongly UC which is stronger than property UC and prove the existence of best approximations for a new class of almost cyclic $\psi$-contraction maps in a metric space. As a…

In this article, we are interested in the question whether any complete contractible $3$-manifold of positive scalar curvature is homeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. We study the fundamental group at infinity, $\pi_{1}^{\infty}$, and its…

A basilar property and a useful tool in the theory of Sobolev spaces is the density of smooth compactly supported functions in the space $W^{k,p}(\R^n)$ (i.e. the functions with weak derivatives of orders $0$ to $k$ in $L^p$). On Riemannian…
