We construct infinitely differentiable norms and partitions of unity for a class of Banach spaces which includes all spaces $\C(K)$ with $K$ a countable compact space, and all spaces $\C_0[0,\Omega )$ with $\Omega $ an ordinal.

We define and study asymptotically symmetric Banach spaces (a.s.) and its variations: weakly a.s. (w.a.s.) and weakly normalized a.s. (w.n.a.s.). If X is a.s. then all spreading models of X are uniformly symmetric. We show that the converse…

In this paper, we provide an infinite metric space $M$ such that the set $\mbox{SNA}(M)$ of strongly norm-attaining Lipschitz functions does not contain a subspace which is isometric to $c_0$. This answers a question posed by Antonio…

We show that any Banach space contains a continuum of non isomorphic subspaces or a minimal subspace. We define an ergodic Banach space $X$ as a space such that $E_0$ Borel reduces to isomorphism on the set of subspaces of $X$, and show…

We study norm attainment for multilinear operators and homogeneous polynomials between Banach spaces, as well as for positive multilinear operators between Banach lattices. We establish multilinear and polynomial versions of [23, Theorem B]…

We prove a commutative Gelfand--Naimark type theorem, by showing that the set $C_s(X)$ of continuous bounded (real or complex valued) functions with separable support on a locally separable metrizable space $X$ (provided with the supremum…

Let $H$ be a reflexive, dense, separable, infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space and let $B(H)$ be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on $H$. In this paper, we carry out characterizations of norm-attainable operators in normed…

The existence of a Banach limit as a translation invariant positive continuous linear functional on the space of bounded scalar sequences which is equal to 1 at the constant sequence (1,1,...,1,...) is proved in a first course on functional…

By means of the direct limit technique, with every normed space X it is associated a bidualic (Banach) space $\tilde{X} (D^2( \tilde{X}) \cong \tilde{X} $ - called the hyperdual of $X$) that contains (isometrically embedded) $X$ as well as…

We study Hilbert generated versions of nonseparable Banach spaces $\mathcal X$ considered by Shelah, Stepr\=ans and Wark where the behavior of the norm on nonseparable subsets is so irregular that it does not allow any linear bounded…

Let $H$ be a Hilbert space that can be embedded as a dense subspace of a Banach space $X$ such that the norm of the embedding is equal to $1$. We consider the following statements for a nonzero vector $\varphi$ in $H$: (A) $\|\varphi\|_X =…

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…

We investigate the function-space optimality (specifically, the Banach-space optimality) of a large class of shallow neural architectures with multivariate nonlinearities/activation functions. To that end, we construct a new family of…

We introduce and study two new relations between function spaces over measure spaces of infinite measure, motivated by the question of establishing compactness. The first relation captures the uniform decay of function (quasi-)norms ``at…

Let $X$ be a separable nonquasireflexive Banach space. Let $Y$ be a Banach space isomorphic to a subspace of $X^*$. The paper is devoted to the following questions: 1. Under what conditions does there exist an isomorphic embedding $T:Y\to…

We investigate the existence of equivalent p-norms, 0< p 1, under which conditional symmetric or spreading bases in quasi-Banach spaces become isometric. For spreading bases (which need not be unconditional or even Schauder bases), we…

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…

We show that every infinite-dimensional Banach space with separable dual admits an equivalent norm which is weakly locally uniformly rotund but not locally uniformly rotund.

We prove several results of the following type: given finite dimensional normed space V possessing certain geometric property there exists another space X having the same property and such that (1) log (dim X) = O(log (dim V)) and (2) every…

A Banach space $X$ has the $2$-summing property if the norm of every linear operator from $X$ to a Hilbert space is equal to the $2$-summing norm of the operator. Up to a point, the theory of spaces which have this property is independent…
