Based on the concept of unbounded absolutely weakly convergence, we give new characterizations of L-weakly compact sets. As applications, we find some properties of order weakly compact operators. Also, a new characterizations of order…

In this paper we study different aspects of the representation of weak*-compact convex sets of the bidual $X^{**}$ of a separable Banach space $X$ via a nested sequence of closed convex bounded sets of $X$.

We present some extensions of classical results that involve elements of the dual of Banach spaces, such as Bishop-Phelp's theorem and James' compactness theorem, but restricting to sets of functionals determined by geometrical properties.…

We introduce a measure of super weak noncompactness $\Gamma$ defined for bounded linear operators and subsets in Banach spaces that allows to state and prove a characterization of the Banach spaces which are subspaces of a Hilbert generated…

Motivated by results of Juh\'asz and van Mill in [13], we define the cardinal invariant $wt(X)$, the weak tightness of a topological space $X$, and show that $|X|\leq 2^{L(X)wt(X)\psi(X)}$ for any Hausdorff space $X$ (Theorem 2.8). As…

Denote by $[0,\omega_1)$ the locally compact Hausdorff space consisting of all countable ordinals, equipped with the order topology, and let $C_0[0,\omega_1)$ be the Banach space of scalar-valued, continuous functions which are defined on…

We prove that given a locally compact Hausdorff space, $K$, and a compact C$^*$-algebra, $\mathcal{A}$, the C$^*$-algebra $C(K, \mathcal{A})$ satisfies that every convex combination of slices of the closed unit ball is relatively weakly…

Let X be a Banach space. Given a subset A of the dual space X* denote by $A_{(1)}$ the weak* sequential closure of A, i.e., the set of all limits of weak*-convergent sequences in A. The study of weak* sequential closures of linear subspaces…

In this paper, we introduce the notions uniformly p-convergent sets and weakly p-sequentially continuous differentiable mappings. Then we obtain a sufficient condition for those Banach spaces which either contain no copy of $\ell_1$ or have…

Using the method of forcing we prove that consistently there is a Banach space of continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff space with the Grothendieck property and with density less than the continuum. It follows that the classical…

In this paper the weak topology on a normed space is studied from the viewpoint of infinite-dimensional topology. Besides the weak topology on a normed space $X$ (coinciding with the topology of uniform convergence on finite subsets of the…

It is shown that a separable Banach space $X$ can be given an equivalent norm $|\!|\!|\cdot |\!|\!|$ with the following properties:\quad If $(x_n)\subseteq X$ is relatively weakly compact and $\lim_{m\to\infty} \lim_{n\to\infty}\break…

We show that for infinite Tychonoff spaces X and Y the weak*-dual of Ck(X x Y) contains a basic sequence; moreover, the weak*-bidual of Ck(X) contains such a sequence as well. When X and Y are infinite compact spaces, we single out a…

We prove that, given two Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ and bounded, closed convex sets $C\subseteq X$ and $D\subseteq Y$, if a nonzero element $z\in \overline{\mathrm{co}}(C\otimes D)\subseteq X\widehat{\otimes}_\pi Y$ is a preserved extreme…

We study the different ways in which a weakly compact set can generate a Banach lattice. Among other things, it is shown that in an order continuous Banach lattice $X$, the existence of a weakly compact set $K \subset X$ such that $X$…

A set of bounded linear operators from a Banach space to a Banach lattice is collectively L-weakly compact whenever union of images of the unit ball is L-weakly compact. We extend the Meyer-Nieberg duality theorem to collectively L-weakly…

We consider the cardinal invariant CG(X) of the minimal number of weakly compact subsets which generate a Banach space X. We study the behavior of this index when passing to subspaces, its relation with the Lindelof number in the weak…

We study the general measures of non-compactness defined on subsets of a dual Banach space, their associated derivations and their $\omega$-iterates. We introduce the notions of convexifiable and sublinear measure of non-compactness and…

A subsequence principle is obtained, characterizing Banach spaces containing $c_0$, in the spirit of the author's 1974 characterization of Banach spaces containing $\ell^1$. Definition: A sequence $(b_j)$ in a Banach space is called {\it…

We present a Banach space $\mathfrak X$ with a Schauder basis of length $\omega\_1$ which is saturated by copies of $c\_0$ and such that for every closed decomposition of a closed subspace $X=X\_0\oplus X\_1$, either $X\_0$ or $X\_1$ has to…
