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 article, we study the Daugavet property and the diametral diameter two properties in complex Banach spaces. The characterizations for both Daugavet and $\Delta$-points are revisited in the context of complex Banach spaces. We also…

A $\Delta$-point $x$ of a Banach space is a norm one element that is arbitrarily close to convex combinations of elements in the unit ball that are almost at distance $2$ from $x$. If, in addition, every point in the unit ball is…

In this article, we study the diameter two properties (D2Ps), the diametral diameter two properties (diametral D2Ps), and the Daugavet property in Orlicz-Lorentz spaces equipped with the Luxemburg norm. First, we characterize the…

It is known that a Banach space has the strong diameter 2 property (i.e. every convex combination of slices of the unit ball has diameter 2) if and only if the norm on its dual space is octahedral (a notion introduced by Godefroy and…

We solve some open problems regarding diameter two properties within the class of Banach spaces of real-valued Lipschitz functions by using the de Leeuw transform. Namely, we show that: the diameter two property, the strong diameter two…

A gauge $\gamma$ in a vector space $X$ is a distance function given by the Minkowski functional associated to a convex body $K$ containing the origin in its interior. Thus, the outcoming concept of gauge spaces $(X, \gamma)$ extends that of…

We introduce extensions of $\Delta$-points and Daugavet points in which slices are replaced by relative weakly open subsets (super $\Delta$-points and super Daugavet points) or by convex combinations of slices (ccs $\Delta$-points and ccs…

The aim of this note is to provide several variants of the diameter two properties for Banach spaces. We study such properties looking for the abundance of diametral points, which holds in the setting of Banach spaces with the Daugavet…

We show that the duals of Banach algebras of scalar-valued bounded holomorphic functions on the open unit ball $B_E$ of a Banach space $E$ lack weak$^*$-strongly exposed points. Consequently, we obtain that some Banach algebras of…

A Daugavet-point (resp.~$\Delta$-point) of a Banach space is a norm one element $x$ for which every point in the unit ball (resp.~element $x$ itself) is in the closed convex hull of unit ball elements that are almost at distance 2 from $x$.…

We prove that there exists an equivalent norm $\Vert\vert\cdot\vert\Vert$ on $L_\infty[0,1]$ with the following properties: (1) The unit ball of $(L_\infty[0,1],\Vert\vert\cdot\vert\Vert)$ contains non-empty relatively weakly open subsets…

We present an equivalent midpoint locally uniformly rotund (MLUR) renorming $X$ of $C[0,1]$ on which every weakly compact projection $P$ satisfies the equation $\|I-P\| = 1+\|P\|$ ($I$ is the identity operator on $X$). As a consequence we…

In this paper we prove the Hausdorff dimension of the set of (nondegenerate) singular two-dimensional vectors with uniform exponent $\mu$ $\in$ (1/2, 1) is 2(1 -- $\mu$) when $\mu$ $\ge$ $\sqrt$ 2/2, whereas for $\mu$ \textless{} $\sqrt$…

We extend the (attaining of) strong diameter two property to infinite cardinals. In particular, a Banach space has the 1-norming attaining strong diameter two property with respect to $\omega$ (1-ASD2P$_\omega$ for short) if every convex…

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 the existence of Daugavet- and delta-points in the unit sphere of Banach spaces with a $1$-unconditional basis. A norm one element $x$ in a Banach space is a Daugavet-point (resp. delta-point) if every element in the unit ball…

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.,…

We study the relation between octahedral norms, Daugavet property and the size of convex combinations of slices in Banach spaces. We prove that the norm of an arbitrary Banach space is octahedral if, and only if, every convex combination of…

In this article, we study the ccs-Daugavet, ccs-$\Delta$, super-Daugavet, super-$\Delta$, Daugavet, $\Delta$, and $\nabla$ points in the unit balls of vector-valued function spaces $C_0(L, X)$, $A(K, X)$, $L_\infty(\mu, X)$, and $L_1(\mu,…
