This paper deals with the following types of problems: Assume a Banach space $X$ has some property (P). Can it be embedded into some Banach space $Z$ with a finite dimensional decomposition having property (P), or more generally, having a…

We define the ($w^\ast$-) boundedness property and the ($w^\ast$-) surjectivity property for sets in normed spaces. We show that these properties are pairwise equivalent in complete normed spaces by characterizing them in terms of 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.,…

In this note, we provide a starlike and normal tiling in any separable Banach space. That means, there are positive constants r and R (not depending on the separable Banach space) such that every tile of this tiling is starlike, contains a…

We consider a certain type of geometric properties of Banach spaces, which includes for instance octahedrality, almost squareness, lushness and the Daugavet property. For this type of properties, we obtain a general reduction theorem,…

We prove that the diametral strong diameter 2 property of a Banach space (meaning that, in convex combinations of relatively weakly open subsets of its unit ball, every point has an "almost diametral" point) is stable under 1-sums, i.e.,…

In this article, we examine the theorem of Mattila establishing rectifiability for regular sets in the setting of strictly convex, finite-dimensional Banach spaces.

A Banach space has the weak fixed point property if its dual space has a weak$^*$ sequentially compact unit ball and the dual space satisfies the weak$^*$ uniform Kadec-Klee property; and it has the \fpp if there exists $\epsilon>0$ such…

The first named author introduced the notion of upper stability for metric spaces as a relaxation of stability. The motivation was a search for a new invariant to distinguish the class of reflexive Banach spaces from stable metric spaces in…

A Banach space (or its norm) is said to have the diameter $2$ property (D$2$P in short) if every nonempty relatively weakly open subset of its closed unit ball has diameter $2$. We construct an equivalent norm on $L_1[0,1]$ which is weakly…

We study convexity and starlikeness of quasihyperbolic and distance ratio metric balls on Banach spaces. In particular, problems related to these metrics on convex domains, and on punctured Banach spaces, are considered.

If $E$ is a Banach space, any element $x^{**}$ in its bidual $E^{**}$ is an affine function on the dual unit ball $B_{E^*}$ that might possess variety of descriptive properties with respect to the weak* topology. We prove several results…

We show some new results about tilings in Banach spaces. A tiling of a Banach space $X$ is a covering by closed sets with non-empty interior so that they have pairwise disjoint interiors. If moreover the tiles have inner radii uniformly…

The paper is a complement to the survey: M.I.Ostrovskii "To\-po\-lo\-gies on the set of all subspaces of a Banach space and related questions of Banach space geometry", Quaestiones Math. (to appear). It contains proofs of some results on…

We discuss a set-valued generalization of strong proximinality in Banach spaces, introduced by J. Mach [Continuity properties of Chebyshev centers, J. Approx. Theory, 29(3):223--230, 1980] as property-$(P_1)$. We establish that if the…

Lifting properties for Banach spaces are studied. An alternate version of the lifting property due to Lindenstrass and Tzafriri is proposed and a characterization, up to isomorphism, is given. The quotient lifting property for pairs of…

We study classes of Banach spaces where the points of weak$^*$-weak continuity for the identity mapping on the dual unit ball form a weak$^*$-dense and weak$^*$-$G_{\delta}$ set. We also discuss how this property behaves in higher duals of…

The aim of this paper is to present a tool used to show that certain Banach spaces can be endowed with $C^k$ smooth equivalent norms. The hypothesis uses particular countable decompositions of certain subsets of $B_{X^*}$, namely…

We introduce and investigate a quantitative version of Steinhaus' property $(S)$ for Banach spaces, called the uniform property $(S)$. A Banach space $X$ is said to have uniform $(S)$ if for every pair of distinct unit vectors $x,y\in X$…

We study existence and partial regularity relative to the weighted Steiner problem in Banach spaces. We show $C^1$ regularity almost everywhere for almost minimizing sets in uniformly rotund Banach spaces whose modulus of uniform convexity…
