We show that if X is a tight subspace of C(K) then X has the Pelczynski property and X^* is weakly sequentially complete. We apply this result to the space U of uniformly convergent Taylor series on the unit circle and using a minimal…

In the first part of the paper we prove that for $2 < p, r < \infty$ every operator $T: L_p \to \ell_r$ is narrow. This completes the list of sequence and function Lebesgue spaces $X$ with the property that every operator $T:L_p \to X$ is…

We give sufficient conditions on a Banach space $X$ which ensure that $\ell_{\infty}$ embeds in $\mathcal{L}(X)$, the space of all operators on $X$. We say that a basic sequence $(e_n)$ is quasisubsymmetric if for any two increasing…

For every $c\geq 1$, we define a strengthening of Kazhdan's Property (T) by considering uniformly bounded representations $\pi$ with fixed bound $|\pi|\leq c$. We carry out a systematic study of this property and show that it can be…

The Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'{a}s property deals with simultaneous approximation of an operator $T$ and a vector $x$ at which $T$ nearly attains its norm by an operator $T_0$ and a vector $x_0$, respectively, such that $T_0$ attains its norm…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $\mu$ a probability measure. A set $K \subseteq L^1(\mu,X)$ is said to be a $\delta\mathcal{S}$-set if it is uniformly integrable and for every $\delta>0$ there is a weakly compact set $W \subseteq X$ such that…

Let $(F_i)$ be a sequence of sets in a Banach space $X$. For what sequences does the condition $$ \limsup_{i\to \infty} \sup_{f_i\in F_i} \|Tf_i\|_Y=0 $$ hold for every Banach space $Y$ and every compact operator $T:X\to Y$? We answer this…

Let $1 \leq p <\infty$. A sequence $\lef x_n \rig$ in a Banach space $X$ is defined to be $p$-operator summable if for each $\lef f_n \rig \in l^{w^*}_p(X^*)$, we have $\lef \lef f_n(x_k)\rig_k \rig_n \in l^s_p(l_p)$. Every norm…

A bounded subset $M$ of a Banach space $X$ is said to be $\varepsilon$-weakly precompact, for a given $\varepsilon\geq 0$, if every sequence $(x_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ in $M$ admits a subsequence $(x_{n_k})_{k\in \mathbb{N}}$ such that $$…

We introduce the class of $\alpha$-firmly nonexpansive and quasi $\alpha$-firmly nonexpansive operators on $r$-uniformly convex Banach spaces. This extends the existing notion from Hilbert spaces, where $\alpha$-firmly nonexpansive…

Let $X$ be a locally compact topological space, $(Y,d)$ be a boundedly compact metric space and $LB(X,Y)$ be the space of all locally bounded functions from $X$ to $Y$. We characterize compact sets in $LB(X,Y)$ equipped with the topology of…

It is shown that if a Banach space X has the weak Banach-Saks property and the weak fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings and Y satisfies property asymptotic (P) (which is weaker than the condition WCS(Y)>1), then the direct sum of…

We obtain new progresses about the diameter two property and the Daugavet property in tensor product spaces. Namely, the main results of the paper are: -If $X^*$ has the WODP, then $X\widehat{\otimes}_\varepsilon Y$ has the DD2P for any…

Since the seminal results by Avellaneda \& Lin it is known that elliptic operators with periodic coefficients enjoy the same regularity theory as the Laplacian on large scales. In a recent inspiring work, Armstrong \& Smart proved…

A nonsingular real algebraic variety Y is said to have the approximation property if for every real algebraic variety X the following holds: if f:X-->Y is a C^inf map that is homotopic to a regular map, then f can be approximated in the…

Let $X$ be a ball quasi-Banach function space on ${\mathbb R}^n$. In this article, the authors introduce the weak Hardy-type space $WH_X({\mathbb R}^n)$, associated with $X$, via the radial maximal function. Assuming that the powered…

We prove that if q is in (1,\infty), Y is a Banach space and T is a linear operator defined on the space of finite linear combinations of (1,q)-atoms in R^n which is uniformly bounded on (1,q)-atoms, then T admits a unique continuous…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an operator $A:X\to Y$ on a Banach space having a shrinking FDD to factor through a Banach space $Z$ such that the Szlenk index of $Z$ is equal to the Szlenk index of $A$. We also prove that…

In this paper we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of non-norm-attaining operators in $\mathcal{L}(E, F)$. By using a theorem due to Pfitzner on James boundaries, we show that if there exists a relatively compact…

For locally convex spaces $X$ and $Y$, the continuous linear map $T:X \to Y$ is said to be bounded if it maps zero neighborhoods of $X$ into bounded sets of $Y$. We denote $(X,Y) \in \mathcal{B}$ when every operator between $X$ and $Y$ is…
