We use the Aron-Berner extension to prove that the set of extreme points of the unit ball of the space of integral polynomials over a real Banach space $X$ is $\{\pm \phi^k: \phi \in X^*, \| \phi\|=1\}$. With this description we show that,…

We develop tools to produce equivalent norms with specific local geometry around infinitely many points in the sphere of a Banach space via an inductive procedure. We combine this process with smoothness results and techniques to solve two…

We characterise the class of those Banach spaces in which every convex combination of slices of the unit ball intersects the unit sphere as the class of those spaces in which every convex combination of slices of the unit ball contains two…

Let $(\Omega,\mu)$ be a $\sigma$-finite measure space. Given a Banach space $X$, let the symbol $S(X)$ stand for the unit sphere of $X$. We prove that the space $L^{\infty} (\Omega,\mu)$ of all complex-valued measurable essentially bounded…

We introduce the notion of numerical (strong) peak function and investigate the denseness of the norm and numerical peak functions on complex Banach spaces. Let $A_b(B_X:X)$ be the Banach space of all bounded continuous functions $f$ on the…

Properties of Lipschitz and d.c. surfaces of finite codimension in a Banach space, and properties of generated $\sigma$-ideals are studied. These $\sigma$-ideals naturally appear in the differentiation theory and in the abstract…

We prove that a Banach space has the uniform approximation property with proportional growth of the uniformity function iff it is a weak Hilbert space.

On spaces of finite signed Borel measures on a metric space one has introduced the Fortet-Mourier and Dudley norms, by embedding the measures into the dual space of the Banach space of bounded Lipschitz functions, equipped with different --…

It is shown that any Banach space X of sufficiently large density contains an (infinite) unconditional sequence and a separable quotient. If a density of X is a weakly compact cardinal, then X contains an unconditional sequence of…

The main result of this paper is a fixed point result relating the spreading model structure of Banach spaces and Schauder basis with not too large basis constant. As a striking consequence, we deduce that every super-reflexive space has…

In this note we find $\lambda>1$ and give an explicit construction of a separable Banach space $X$ such that there is no $\lambda$-Lipschitz retraction from $X$ onto any compact convex subset of $X$ whose closed linear span is $X$. This is…

It is shown here that if $(Y,\|\cdot\|_Y)$ is a Banach space in which martingale differences are unconditional (a UMD Banach space) then there exists $c=c(Y)\in (0,\infty)$ with the following property. For every $n\in \mathbb{N}$ and…

We define the infinite dimensional simplex to be the closure of the convex hull of the standard basis vectors in R^infinity, and prove that this space has the 'fixed point property': any continuous function from the space into itself has a…

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.,…

E. Oja, T. Viil, and D. Werner showed, in [Totally smooth renormings, Archiv der Mathematik, 112, 3, (2019), 269--281] that a weakly compactly generated Banach space $(X,\|\cdot \|)$ with the property that every linear functional on $X$ has…

In this paper, we study the existence of the random approximations and fixed points for random almost lower semicontinuous operators defined on finite dimensional Banach spaces, which in addition, are condensing or 1-set-contractive. Our…

In this paper we survey known results of characterizations of reflexive Banach spaces, which are based on convergence of usual and generalized arithmetic mean (or Ces\`aro sum), weakly compact subsets, affine sets in a Banach space or its…

In this note various geometric properties of a Banach space $X$ are characterized by means of weaker corresponding geometric properties involving an ultrapower $X^\mathcal{U}$. The characterizations do not depend on the particular choice of…

We prove that the norm of $X\widehat{\otimes}_\pi Y$ is SSD if either $X=\ell_p(I)$ for $p>2$ and $Y$ is a finite-dimensional Banach space such that the modulus of convexity is of power type $q<p$ (e.g. if $Y^*$ is a subspace of $L_q$) or…

We characterize preserved extreme points of Lipschitz-free spaces $\mathcal{F}(X)$ in terms of simple geometric conditions on the underlying metric space $(X,d)$. Namely, each preserved extreme point corresponds to a pair of points $p,q$ in…
