Leonetti proved that whenever $\mathcal I$ is an ideal on $\mathbb N$ such that there exists an~uncountable family of sets that are not in $\mathcal I$ with the property that the intersection of any two distinct members of that family is in…
We study the complementation (in $\ell_\infty$) of the Banach space $c_{0,\mathcal{I}}$, consisting of all bounded sequences $(x_n)$ that $\mathcal{I}$-converge to $0$, endowed with the supremum norm, where $\mathcal{I}$ is an ideal of…
We consider the subspaces $c$, $\widehat{c}$, $S$ of $\ell^\infty$, where $\widehat{c}$ consists of almost convergent sequences, and $S$ consists of sequences whose arithmetic means of consecutive terms are convergent. We know that…
A nonempty closed convex bounded subset $C$ of a Banach space is said to have the weak approximate fixed point property if for every continuous map $f:C\to C$ there is a sequence $\{x_n\}$ in $C$ such that $x_n-f(x_n)$ converge weakly to 0.…
An isomorphic (\ell_1)-predual space (X) is constructed such that neither (X) is isomorphic to a subspace of (c_0), nor (C(\omega^\omega)) is isomorphic to a subspace of (X). It follows that (X) is not isomorphic to a complemented subspace…
This paper is concerned with the isomorphic structure of the Banach space $\ell_\infty/c_0$ and how it depends on combinatorial tools whose existence is consistent but not provable from the usual axioms of ZFC. Our main global result is…
In this paper, we analyze the existence of algebraic and topological structures in the set of sequences that contain only a finite number of zero coordinates. Inspired by the work of Daniel Cariello and Juan B. Seoane-Sep\'ulveda, our…
The notion of a strongly summing sequence is introduced. Such a sequence is weak-Cauchy, a basis for its closed linear span, and has the crucial property that the dual of this span is not weakly sequentially complete. The main result is:…
A closed subspace $S$ of $\ell_\infty$ is said to be a \emph{$\ell_\infty$-Grothendieck subspace} if $c_0\subset S$ (hence $\ell_\infty\subset S^{**}$) and every $\sigma(S^*,S)$-convergent sequence in $S^*$ is…
We show that linear chaos in the space $c(\mathbb{N})$ of convergent sequences cannot be arrived at by merely extending the weighted backward shifts in the space $c_0(\mathbb{N})$ of vanishing sequences. Applying a newly found sufficient…
We prove that there exist Banach spaces not containing $\ell_1$, failing the point of continuity property and satisfying that every semi-normalized basic sequence has a boundedly complete basic subsequence. This answers in the negative the…
For $0<p<1,$ we prove that there is a $\mathfrak{c}$-dimensional subspace of $\mathcal{L}\left( \ell_{p},\ell_{p}\right) $ such that, except for the null vector, all of its vectors fail to be absolutely $(r,s)$-summing regardless of the…
We prove that no ultraproduct of Banach spaces via a countably incomplete ultrafilter can contain $c_0$ complemented. This shows that a "result" widely used in the theory of ultraproducts is wrong. We then amend a number of results whose…
Let $X$ be a sequence space and denote by $Z(X)$ the subset of $X$ formed by sequences having only a finite number of zero coordinates. We study algebraic properties of $Z(X)$ and show (among other results) that (for $p \in [1,\infty]$)…
We investigate dense lineability and spaceability of subsets of $\ell_\infty$ with a prescribed number of accumulation points. We prove that the set of all bounded sequences with exactly countably many accumulation points is densely…
Motivated by Exel's inverse semigroup approach to combinatorial C*-algebras, in a previous work the authors defined an inverse semigroup associated with a labelled space. We construct a representation of the C*-algebra of a labelled space,…
Let $\mathcal{I}\subseteq\mathcal{P}(\omega)$ be a meager ideal. Then there are no continuous projections from $\ell_\infty$ onto the set of bounded sequences which are $\mathcal{I}$-convergent to $0$. In particular, it follows that the set…
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…
This paper is inspired by the paper of Leonetti, Russo and Somaglia [\textit{Dense lineability and spaceability in certain subsets of $\ell_\infty$.} Bull. London Math. Soc., 55: 2283--2303 (2023)] and the lineability problems raised…
The aim of this paper is introduce and initiate the study of extremally $T_1$-spaces, i.e., the spaces where all hereditarily compact $C_2$-subspaces are closed. A $C_2$-space is a space whose nowhere dense sets are finite.
