We provide two examples of complex homogeneous quadratic polynomials P on Banach spaces of the form l_1(I). The first polynomial P has both separable and nonseparable maximal zero subspaces. The second polynomial P has the property that…
We study algebraic fiber spaces $f:X \longrightarrow Y$ where $Y$ is of maximal Albanese dimension. In particular we give an effective version a theorem of Kawamata: If $P_m(X)=1$ for some $m \ge 2$, then the Albanese map of $X$ is…
It is shown that every normalized weakly null sequence of length $\kappa_{\lambda}$ in a Banach space has a subsequence of length $\lambda$ which is an unconditional basic sequence; here $\kappa_{\lambda}$ is a large cardinal depending on a…
Two vectors $x,y$ of a Banach space are said to form a parallel (resp. triangle equality attaining or TEA) pair if $\|x+\lambda y\|=\|x\|+\|y\|$ holds for some scalar $\lambda$ with $|\lambda|=1$ (resp. $\lambda=1$). For $p\in…
We consider Riemannian $n$-manifolds $M$ with nontrivial $\kappa$-nullity "distribution" of the curvature tensor $R$, namely, the variable rank distribution of tangent subspaces to $M$ where $R$ coincides with the curvature tensor of a…
We develop the theory of Banach algebras whose multiplication (regarded as a bilinear map) is open. We demonstrate that such algebras must have topological stable rank 1, however the latter condition is strictly weaker and implies only that…
We show that for acylindrically hyperbolic groups $\Gamma$ (with no nontrivial finite normal subgroups) and arbitrary unitary representation $\rho$ of $\Gamma$ in a (nonzero) uniformly convex Banach space the vector space…
The quotient shape types of normed vectorial spaces(over the same field) with respect to Banach spaces reduce to those of Banach spaces. The finite quotient shape type of normed spaces is an invariant of the (algebraic) dimension, but not…
In the first part of the paper we study the structure of Banach spaces with a conditional spreading basis. The geometry of such spaces exhibit a striking resemblance to the geometry of James' space. Further, we show that the averaging…
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…
The paper alluded to in the title contains the following striking result: Let $I$ be the unit interval and $\Delta$ the Cantor set. If $X$ is a quasi Banach space containing no copy of $c_0$ which is isomorphic to a closed subspace of a…
Let $\mathcal X$ be a regular scheme, flat and proper over the ring of integers of a $p$-adic field, with generic fiber $X$ and special fiber $\mathcal X_s$. We study the left kernel $Br(\mathcal X)$ of the Brauer-Manin pairing $Br(X)\times…
Let $T$ be a bounded linear operator on a (real or complex) Banach space $X$. If $(a_n)$ is a sequence of non-negative numbers tending to 0. Then, the set of $x \in X$ such that $\|T^nx\| \geqslant a_n \|T^n\|$ for infinitely many $n$'s has…
A remarkable theorem of R. C. James is the following: suppose that $X$ is a Banach space and $C \subseteq X$ is a norm bounded, closed and convex set such that every linear functional $x^* \in X^*$ attains its supremum on $C$; then $C$ is a…
We establish the full quasi-Banach range of $L^{p_1}(\mathbb R) \times L^{p_2}(\mathbb R) \rightarrow L^p(\mathbb R)$ bounds for one-dimensional bilinear singular integral operators with homogeneous kernels whose restriction $\Omega$ to the…
We prove that $L(X,Y)$ is complemented in $Lip_0(X, Y)$ (via a norm-one projection) provided that $Y$ is a dual space. Next, we introduce a vector-valued Lipschitz-free space $F_Y(X)$, a linear contraction $\beta_X^Y: F_Y(X) \to Y$ and…
We study the group invariant continuous polynomials on a Banach space $X$ that separate a given set $K$ in $X$ and a point $z$ outside $K$. We show that if $X$ is a real Banach space, $G$ is a compact group of $\mathcal{L} (X)$, $K$ is a…
We prove that if X is an infinite-dimensional Banach space with C^p smooth partitions of unity, then X and X\K are C^p diffeomorphic, for every weakly compact subset K of X.
We prove that for any prime number $p\ge 3$, there exists a positive number $\kappa_p$ such that $\chi(\mathcal{O}_X)\ge \kappa_pc_1^2$ holds true for all algebraic surfaces $X$ of general type in characteristic $p$. In particular,…
For every $ 1 < p < \infty $ an isomorphically polyhedral Banach space $E_p$ is constructed having an unconditional basis and admitting a quotient isomorphic to $\ell_p$. It is also shown that $E_p$ is not isomorphic to a subspace of a…
