Following results of Bourgain and Gorelik we show that the spaces $\ell_p$, $1<p<\infty$, as well as some related spaces have the following uniqueness property: If $X$ is a Banach space uniformly homeomorphic to one of these spaces then it…

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 will show that Banach spaces are monadic over complete metric spaces via the unit ball functor. For the forgetful functor, one should take complete pointed metric spaces.

We study the set $\operatorname{SNA}(M,Y)$ of those Lipschitz maps from a (complete pointed) metric space $M$ to a Banach space $Y$ which (strongly) attain their Lipschitz norm (i.e.\ the supremum defining the Lipschitz norm is a maximum).…

Let $X$ be a Banach space with a separable dual. We prove that $X$ embeds isomorphically into a $\cL_\infty$ space $Z$ whose dual is isomorphic to $\ell_1$. If, moreover, $U$ is a space so that $U$ and $X$ are totally incomparable, then we…

A continuous quadratic form ("quadratic form", in short) on a Banach space $X$ is: (a) delta-semidefinite (i.e., representable as a difference of two nonnegative quadratic forms) if and only if the corresponding symmetric linear operator…

We prove the result stated in the title. This provides a first example of an infinite-dimensional Banach space whose Lipschitz free space is isomorphic to the free space of a compact set.

We construct an infinite dimensional Banach space of continuous functions C(K) such that every one-to-one operator on C(K) is onto.

Let $X$ be a Banach space. We prove that, for a large class of Banach or quasi-Banach spaces $E$ of $X$-valued sequences, the sets $E-\bigcup _{q\in\Gamma}\ell_{q}(X)$, where $\Gamma$ is any subset of $(0,\infty]$, and $E-c_{0}(X)$ contain…

Extending recent results by Cascales, Kadets, Orihuela and Wingler (2016), Kadets and Zavarzina (2017), and Zavarzina (2017) we demonstrate that for every Banach space $X$ and every collection $Z_i, i\in I$ of strictly convex Banach spaces…

It is shown that a Banach space with locally uniformly convex dual admits an equivalent norm which is itself locally uniformly convex. It follows that on any such space all continuous real-valued functions may be uniformly approximated by…

A Banach space $X$ is called subprojective if any of its infinite dimensional subspaces $Y$ contains a further infinite dimensional subspace complemented in $X$. This paper is devoted to systematic study of subprojectivity. We examine the…

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…

We prove that, given any covering of any separable infinite-dimensional uniformly rotund and uniformly smooth Banach space $X$ by closed balls each of positive radius, some point exists in $X$ which belongs to infinitely many balls.

It is proved that there exist complemented subspaces of countable topological products (locally convex direct sums) of Banach spaces which cannot be represented as topological products (locally convex direct sums) of Banach spaces. (This is…

In the article is introduced a new class of Banach spaces that are called sub B-convex. Namely, a Banach space X is said to be B -convex if it may be represented as a direct sum l_1+ W, where W is B-convex. It will be shown that any…

We study the numerical index of absolute sums of Banach spaces, giving general conditions which imply that the numerical index of the sum is less or equal than the infimum of the numerical indices of the summands and we provide some…

The computation of the numerical index of a Banach space is an intriguing problem, even in case of two-dimensional real polyhedral Banach spaces. In this article we present a general method to estimate the numerical index of any…

We introduce and study the notion of space of almost universal complemented disposition (a.u.c.d.) as a generalization of Kadec space. We show that every Banach space with separable dual is isometrically contained as a $1$-complemented…

Let N and M be von Neumann algebras. It is proved that L^p(N) does not Banach embed in L^p(M) for N infinite, M finite, 1 < or = p < 2. The following considerably stronger result is obtained (which implies this, since the Schatten p-class…
