In this paper structure of infinite dimensional Banach spaces is studied by using an asymptotic approach based on stabilization at infinity of finite dimensional subspaces which appear everywhere far away. This leads to notions of…

We show that if $X$ is a Banach space whose dual $X^{*}$ has an equivalent locally uniformly rotund (LUR) norm, then for every open convex $U\subseteq X$, for every $\varepsilon >0$, and for every continuous and convex function $f:U…

Let $(\Omega,\mu)$ be a $\sigma$-finite measure space. Given a Banach space $X$, let the symbol $S(X)$ stand for the unit sphere of $X$. We prove that the space $L^{\infty} (\Omega,\mu)$ of all complex-valued measurable essentially bounded…

Inspired by some recent development on the theory about projection valued dilations for operator valued measures or more generally bounded homomorphism dilations for bounded linear maps on Banach algebras, we explore a pure algebraic…

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…

The aim of this note is study the topology generated by Lipschitz slices in the unit sphere of a Banach space. We prove that the above topology agrees with the weak topology in the unit sphere and, as a consequence, we obtain Lipschitz…

These notes are dedicated to the study of the complexity of several classes of separable Banach spaces. We compute the complexity of the Banach-Saks property, the alternating Banach-Saks property, the complete continuous property, and the…

Let $K$ be a compact Hausdorff space and let $H$ be a real or complex Hilbert space with dim$(H_\mathbb{R})\geq 2$. We prove that the space $C(K,H)$ of all $H$-valued continuous functions on $K$, equipped with the supremum norm, satisfies…

It is a longstanding problem whether every contractible Banach algebra is necessarily finite-dimensional. In this note, we confirm this for Banach algebras acting on Banach spaces with the uniform approximation property. This generalizes a…

If $X$ is an infinite-dimensional uniform algebra, if $X$ has the Daugavet property or if $X$ is a proper $M$-embedded space, every relatively weakly open subset of the unit ball of the Banach space $X$ is known to have diameter 2, i.e.,…

We show that all the symmetric projective tensor products of a Banach space $X$ have the Daugavet property provided $X$ has the Daugavet property and either $X$ is an $L_1$-predual (i.e.\ $X^*$ is isometric to an $L_1$-space) or $X$ is a…

This article aims to examine the Hahn-Banach smoothness of Banach spaces and its connections to various geometrical aspects. We examine the circumstances that allow linear functionals to have unique norm-preserving extensions, with…

It is an open problem whether an infinite-dimensional amenable Banach algebra exists whose underlying Banach space is reflexive. We give sufficient conditions for a reflexive, amenable Banach algebra to be finite-dimensional (and thus a…

A Banach space has the Schur property when every weakly convergent sequence converges in norm. We prove a Schur-like property for measures: if a sequence of finite signed Borel measures on a Polish space is such that it is bounded in total…

We begin by describing the unit ball of the free $p$-convex Banach lattice over a Banach space $E$ (denoted by ${\mathrm{FBL}}^{(p)}[E]$) as a closed solid convex hull of an appropriate set. Based on it, we show that, if a Banach space $E$…

We study the Daugavet property in tensor products of Banach spaces. We show that $L_1(\mu)\widehat{\otimes}_\varepsilon L_1(\nu)$ has the Daugavet property when $\mu$ and $\nu$ are purely non-atomic measures. Also, we show that…

We present selected known results and some of their improvements, involving Gurarii spaces. A Banach space is Gurarii if it has certain natural extension property for almost isometric embeddings of finite-dimensional spaces. Deleting the…

We provide a few characterizations of a strictly convex Banach space. Using this we improve the main theorem of [Digar, Abhik; Kosuru, G. Sankara Raju; Cyclic uniform Lipschitzian mappings and proximal uniform normal structure. Ann. Funct.…

This article contains the first steps in a general analysis of the problem of Krylov solvability of the inverse linear problem in a Banach space. In contrast to the well-studied Hilbert space setting, the Banach space setting presents…

We consider the problem of isometric embedding of metric spaces to the Banach spaces; and introduce and study the remarkable class of so-called linearly rigid metric spaces: these are the spaces that admit a unique, up to isometry, linearly…
