In this paper, we investigate the geometric properties of the variable mixed Lebesgue-sequence space $\ell^{q(\cdot)} (L^{p(\cdot)})$ as a Banach space. We show that, if $ 1<q_-,p_-,q_+,p_+<\infty $, then $\ell^{q(\cdot)} (L^{p(\cdot)})$ is…

We consider a large class of geodesic metric spaces, including Banach spaces, hyperbolic spaces and geodesic $\mathrm{CAT}(\kappa)$-spaces, and investigate the space of nonexpansive mappings on either a convex or a star-shaped subset in…

It is shown that if $A$ is an analytic class of separable Banach spaces with separable dual, then the set $A^*=\{Y:\exists X\in A \text{with} Y\cong X^*\}$ is analytic. The corresponding result for pre-duals is false.

A metric space $X$ is {\em injective} if every non-expanding map $f:B\to X$ defined on a subspace $B$ of a metric space $A$ can be extended to a non-expanding map $\bar f:A\to X$. We prove that a metric space $X$ is a Lipschitz image of an…

In this paper we state a one-to-one connection between the maximal ratio of the circumradius and the diameter of a body (the Jung constant) in an arbitrary Minkowski space and the maximal Minkowski asymmetry of the complete bodies within…

We make some remarks on the global shape of continuous convex functions defined on a Banach space $Z$. Among other results we prove that if $Z$ is separable then for every continuous convex function $f:Z\to\mathbb{R}$ there exist a unique…

We construct a hereditarily indecomposable Banach space with dual isomorphic to $\ell_1$. Every bounded linear operator on this space has the form $\lambda I+K$ with $\lambda$ a scalar and $K$ compact.

(a) Let X=(f,g) be a differentiable map in the plane (not necessarily C^1) and let Spec(X) be the set of (complex) eigenvalues of the derivative DX(p) when p varies in R^2. If, for some \epsilon>0, the set Spec(X) is disjoint of…

We examine the analyticity of the class of separable Banach spaces possessing the $\pi$-property, defined in terms of convergence along a filter. Our results establish that this class is $\Sigma^1_3$ whenever the underlying filter is…

We show that there exists a separable reflexive Banach space into which every separable uniformly convex Banach space isomorphically embeds. This solves a problem of J. Bourgain. We also give intrinsic characterizations of separable…

We study the nonlinear embeddability of Banach spaces and the equi-embeddability of the family of Kalton's interlaced graphs $([\mathbb N]^k,d_{\mathbb K})_k$ into dual spaces. Notably, we define and study a modification of Kalton's…

We prove that for every $n\in \mathbb{N}$ there exists a metric space $(X,d_X)$, an $n$-point subset $S\subseteq X$, a Banach space $(Z,\|\cdot\|_Z)$ and a $1$-Lipschitz function $f:S\to Z$ such that the Lipschitz constant of every function…

We study some questions concerning the structure of the set of spreading models of a separable infinite-dimensional Banach space $X$. In particular we give an example of a reflexive $X$ so that all spreading models of $X$ contain $\ell_1$…

We prove in this article that every Borelian measure, for example, the distribution of a random variable, in separable Banach space has a support which is compact embedded Banach subspace; and prove that if the norm of the random variable…

We consider the problem of determining the complexity of the uniform homeomorphism relation between separable Banach spaces in the Borel reducibility hierarchy of analytic equivalence relations. We prove that the complete $K_{\sigma}$…

In this paper, we report on new results related to the existence of an adjoint for operators on separable Banach spaces and discuss a few interesting applications. (Some results are new even for Hilbert spaces.) Our first two applications…

A Banach space $X$ with a Schauder basis is defined to have the restricted quotient hereditarily indecomposable (QHI) property if $X/Y$ is hereditarily indecomposable (HI) for any infinite codimensional subspace $Y$ with a successive…

Let n>2 and X be a Banach space of dimension strictly greater than n. We show there exists a directionally porous set P in X for which the set of C^1 surfaces of dimension n meeting P in positive measure is not meager. If X is separable…

We study the complexities of isometry and isomorphism classes of separable Banach spaces in the Polish spaces of Banach spaces recently introduced and investigated by the authors in [14]. We obtain sharp results concerning the most…

We study the group of surjective linear isometries on certain real Banach sequence spaces using the preservation of extreme points in the closed unit ball. Our main result provides a characterization of the extreme points of the dual unit…
