Let G be a block matrix function with one diagonal block A being positive definite and the off diagonal blocks complex conjugates of each other. Conditions are obtained for G to be factorable (in particular, with zero partial indices) in…

We provide a first-order necessary and sufficient condition for optimality of lower semicontinuous functions on Banach spaces using the concept of subdifferential. From the sufficient condition we derive that any subdifferential operator is…

We study an ordinal rank on the class of Banach spaces with bases that quantifies the distortion of the norm of a given Banach space. The rank $AD(\cdot)$, introduced by P. Dodos, uses the transfinite Schreier familes and has the property…

In 1970 Haskell Rosenthal proved that if $X$ is a Banach space, $\Gamma$ is an infinite index set, and $T:\ell_\infty(\Gamma)\to X$ is a bounded linear operator such that $\inf_{\gamma\in\Gamma}\|T(e_\gamma)\|>0$ then $T$ acts as an…

Suppose $X$ and $Y$ are Banach spaces, $K$ is a compact Hausdorff space, $\Sigma$ is the $\sigma$-algebra of Borel subsets of $K$, $C(K,X)$ is the Banach space of all continuous $X$-valued functions (with the supremum norm), and…

We explore the relation between the orthogonality of bounded linear operators in the space of operators and that of elements in the ground space. To be precise, we study if $ T, A \in \mathbb{L}(\mathbb{X}, \mathbb{Y}) $ satisfy $ T \bot_B…

We define and study a spatial (infinite-dimensional) counterpart of Stirling numbers. In classical combinatorics, the Pochhammer symbol $(m)_n$ can be extended from a natural number $m\in\mathbb N$ to the falling factorials…

We consider a class of bounded linear operators between Banach spaces, which we call operators with the Kato property, that includes the family of strictly singular operators between those spaces. We show that if $T:E\to F$ is a dense-range…

Let X be a compact manifold with boundary, and suppose that the boundary is the total space of a fibration with base Y and fibre Z. Let D be a generalized Dirac operator associated to a Phi-metric g on X. Under the assumption that D is…

We prove the optimal estimate between the Szlenk and $w^*$-dentability indices of an arbitrary $w^*$-compact subset of the dual of a Banach space. For a given $w^*$-compact, convex subset $K$ of the dual of a Banach space, we introduce a…

We introduce two ordinal indices that are linear invariants for Banach spaces: the dyadic tree index and the sprawling tree index. We show that they are also bi-Lipschitz invariants. In fact, we characterize their values in terms of…

In this paper, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for the boundedness of fractional maximal operator $M_{\alpha}$ on Orlicz spaces. As an application of this results we consider the boundedness of fractional maximal commutator…

We compute the complexity of the classes of operators $\mathfrak{G}_{\xi, \zeta}\cap \mathcal{L}$ and $\mathfrak{M}_{\xi, \zeta}\cap \mathcal{L}$ in the coding of operators between separable Banach spaces. We also prove the non-existence of…

We introduce and study the Bourgain index of an operator between two Banach spaces. In particular, we study the Bourgain $\ell_p$ and $c_0$ indices of an operator. Several estimates for finite and infinite direct sums are established. We…

Let $T$ be a weakly almost periodic (WAP) linear operator on a Banach space $X$. A sequence of scalars $(a_n)_{n\ge 1}$ {\it modulates} $T$ on $Y \subset X$ if $\frac1n\sum_{k=1}^n a_kT^k x$ converges in norm for every $x \in Y$. We obtain…

For locally convex spaces, we systematize several known equivalent definitions of Fr\'echet (G\^ ateaux) Differentiability Spaces and Asplund (Weak Asplund) Spaces. As an application, we extend the classical Mazur's theorem as follows: Let…

We derive a dyadic model operator for the Riesz vector. We show linear lower $L^p$ bounds for $1 < p < \infty$ between this model operator and the Riesz vector, when applied to functions with values in Banach spaces. By a lower bound we…

The question which led to the title of this note is the following: {\it If $X$ is a Banach space and $K$ is a compact subset of $X$, is it possible to find a compact, or even approximable, operator $v:X\to X$ such that…

We give a characterization of compact and Fredholm operators on polyanalytic Fock spaces in terms of limit operators. As an application we obtain a generalization of the Bauer-Isralowitz theorem using a matrix valued Berezin type transform.…

The relation between different notions measuring proximity to $\ell_1$ and distortability of a Banach space is studied. The main result states that a Banach space, whose all subspaces have Bourgain $\ell_1$ index greater than…
