Given $1 \leq p < \infty$, let $W_n$ denote the finite-dimensional dyadic Hardy space $H_n^p$, its dual or $SL_n^\infty$. We prove the following quantitative result: The identity operator on $W_n$ factors through any operator $T : W_N\to…
Let $1\leq p,q < \infty$ and $1\leq r \leq \infty$. We show that the direct sum of mixed norm Hardy spaces $\big(\sum_n H^p_n(H^q_n)\big)_r$ and the sum of their dual spaces $\big(\sum_n H^p_n(H^q_n)^*\big)_r$ are both primary. We do so by…
Given $1 \leq p,q < \infty$ and $n\in\mathbb{N}_0$, let $H_n^p(H_n^q)$ denote the canonical finite-dimensional bi-parameter dyadic Hardy space. Let $(V_n : n\in\mathbb{N}_0)$ denote either $\bigl(H_n^p(H_n^q) : n\in\mathbb{N}_0\bigr)$ or…
A Haar system Hardy space is the completion of the linear span of the Haar system $(h_I)_I$, either under a rearrangement-invariant norm $\|\cdot \|$ or under the associated square function norm \begin{equation*} \Bigl\| \sum_Ia_Ih_I…
For $n\in \mathbb{N}$, let $Y_n$ denote the linear span of the first $n+1$ levels of the Haar system in a Haar system Hardy space $Y$ (this class contains all separable rearrangement-invariant function spaces and also related spaces such as…
We introduce a generalization of the Bourgain-Rosenthal-Schechtman $R_{\omega}^p$ space: Let $Y$ be a Haar system Hardy space, i.e., a separable rearrangement-invariant function space on the unit interval or an associated Hardy space…
Let $\mathcal{H}$ and $\mathcal{H}_0$ be Hilbert spaces and $\{A_n\}_n$ be a sequence of bounded linear operators from $\mathcal{H}$ to $\mathcal{H}_0$. The study frames for Hilbert spaces initiated the study of operators of the form…
Consider two continuous linear operators $T\colon X_1(\mu)\to Y_1(\nu)$ and $S\colon X_2(\mu)\to Y_2(\nu)$ between Banach function spaces related to different $\sigma$-finite measures $\mu$ and $\nu$. We characterize by means of weighted…
Let $\mathbb{Y}$ be either an Orlicz sequence space or a Marcinkiewicz sequence space. We take advantage of the recent advances in the theory of factorization of the identity carried on in [R. Lechner, Subsymmetric weak* Schauder bases and…
Let $S_n f$ be the $n$th partial sum of the Fourier series of a function $f$ in $L^1(\D)$, where $\D$ is the ring of integers of a local field $K$. For $1<p<\infty$, we characterize all weight functions $w$ so that the partial sum operators…
This is a continuation of the paper [FJS] with a similar title. Several results from there are strengthened, in particular: 1. If T is a "natural" embedding of l_2^n into L_1 then, for any well-bounded factorization of T through an L_1…
We prove that for any operator $T$ on bi--parameter BMO the identity factors through $T$ or $I - T$. Bourgain's localization method provides the conceptual framework of our proof. It consists in replacing the factorization problem on the…
Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a type ${\rm II_1}$ factor and let $\tau$ be the faithful normal tracial state on $\mathcal{M}$. In this paper, we prove that given an $X \in \mathcal{M}$, $X=X^*$, then there is a decomposition of the identity into $N…
For an $m \times n$ complex matrix $X$ of rank $r$ with Schur multiplier $S_X$ we show that there exist an $ r \times m $ complex matrix $L$ and an $ r\times n $ complex matrix $R$ such that $X = L^*R$ and $\|S_X\|\, =\, \|\mathrm{diag}…
We prove that if PT is a factorization of the identity operator on \ell_p^n through \ell_{\infty}^k, then ||P|| ||T|| \geq Cn^{1/p-1/2}(log n)^{-1/2}. This is a corollary of a more general result on factoring the identity operator on a…
In this paper we consider the following problem: Let $X_k$, be a Banach space with a normalized basis $(e_{(k,j)})_j$, whose biorthogonals are denoted by $(e_{(k,j)}^*)_j$, for $k\in\mathbb{N}$, let $Z=\ell^\infty(X_k:k\in\mathbb{N})$ be…
We introduce a rigorous arithmetic--spectral construction associating planar geometric objects with additive prime factor statistics. Let $\mathrm{sopfr}(n)$ denote the sum of prime factors of $n$, counted with multiplicity, and define the…
It is well known that not every summability property for non linear operators leads to a factorization theorem. In this paper we undertake a detailed study of factorization schemes for summing linear and nonlinear operators. Our aim is to…
Given a Banach space~$X$ with an unconditional basis, we consider the following question: does the identity on~$X$ factor through every operator on~$X$ with large diagonal relative to the unconditional basis? We show that on Gowers'…
We prove that the normalizer of any diffuse amenable subalgebra of a free group factor $L(\Bbb F_r)$ generates an amenable von Neumann subalgebra. Moreover, any II$_1$ factor of the form $Q \vt L(\Bbb F_r) $, with $Q$ an arbitrary subfactor…
