The aim of this paper is to prove a counterpart of the Banach fixed point principle for mappings $f: \ell_\infty(X) \to X$, where $X$ is a metric space and $\ell_\infty(X)$ is the space of all bounded sequences of elements from~$X$. Our…

It is shown that a topological group G is topologically isomorphic to the isometry group of a (complete) metric space iff G coincides with its G-delta-closure in the Rajkov completion of G (resp. if G is Rajkov-complete). It is also shown…

We study pairs of Banach spaces $(X,Y)$, with $Y\subset X$, for which the thesis of Sobczyk's theorem holds, namely, such that every bounded $c_0$-valued operator defined in $Y$ extends to $X$. We are mainly concerned with the case when $X$…

The paper studies properties of twisted sums of a Banach space $X$ with $c_0(\kappa)$. We first prove a representation theorem for such twisted sums from which we will obtain, among others, the following: (a) twisted sums of $c_0(I)$ and…

Investigating some re-arrangement properties of the norm in the quotient spaces $X/X_a$ we determine the properties of the spaces $X$ guaranteeing the existence of a lattice isometric copy of $\ell_\infty$ in the abstract Ces\`aro spaces…

We address the following question: what is the class of Banach spaces isomorphic to subspaces of indecomposable Banach spaces? We show that this class includes all Banach spaces of density not bigger than the continuum which do not admit…

Let $E$ be one of the spaces $C(K)$ and $L_1$, $F$ be an arbitrary Banach space, $p>1,$ and $(X,\sigma)$ be a space with a finite measure. We prove that $E$ is isometric to a subspace of the Lebesgue-Bochner space $L_p(X;F)$ only if $E$ is…

We prove that for every $p\in(1,\infty)$, $p\ne 2$, there exist a Banach space $X$ isomorphic to $\ell_p$ and a finite subset $U$ in $\ell_p$, such that $U$ is not isometric to a subset of $X$. This result shows that the finite isometric…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $(f_n)_n$ be a bounded sequence in $L^1(X)$. We prove a complemented version of the celebrated Talagrand's dichotomy i.e we show that if $(e_n)_n$ denotes the unit vector basis of $c_0$, there exists a sequence…

In this paper we deal with those Banach spaces $Z$ which satisfy the Mazur--Ulam property, namely that every surjective isometry $\Delta$ from the unit sphere of $Z$ to the unit sphere of any Banach space $Y$ admits an unique extension to a…

It is shown in this note that one can decide whether an $n$-dimensional subspace of $\ell_\infty^N$ is isometrically isomorphic to $\ell_\infty^n$ by testing a finite number of determinental inequalities. As a byproduct, an elementary proof…

We improve the known results about the complexity of the relation of isomorphism between separable Banach spaces up to Borel reducibility, and we achieve this using the classical spaces $c_0$, $\ell_p$ and $L_p$, $1 \leq p <2$. More…

The famous Rosenthal-Lacey theorem asserts that for each infinite compact set $K$ the Banach space $C(K)$ admits a quotient which is either a copy of $c$ or $\ell_{2}$. What is the case when the uniform topology of $C(K)$ is replaced by the…

We study finite subsets of $\ell_2$, and more generally any metric space, and consider whether these isometrically embed into a Banach space. Our results partially answer a question of Ostrovskii, on whether every infinite-dimensional…

In present work we deal with the class $\mathcal{C}=\mathcal{C}_1\cup \mathcal{C}_2$ where $\mathcal{C}_1$ (respectively, $\mathcal{C}_2$) is formed by all separable Uniform algebras (respectively, separable commutative C$^*$-algebras) with…

For a metric space $(K,d)$ the Banach space $\Lip(K)$ consists of all scalar-valued bounded Lipschitz functions on $K$ with the norm $\|f\|_{L}=\max(\|f\|_{\infty},L(f))$, where $L(f)$ is the Lipschitz constant of $f$. The closed subspace…

For a separable rearrangement invariant space $X$ on $[0,1]$ of fundamental type we identify the set of all $p\in [1,\infty]$ such that $\ell^p$ is finitely represented in $X$ in such a way that the unit basis vectors of $\ell^p$ ($c_0$ if…

Suppose $X$ is a real or complexified Banach space containing a complemented copy of $\ell_p$, $p\in(1,2)$, and a copy (not necessarily complemented) of either $\ell_q$, $q\in(p,\infty)$, or $c_0$. Then $\mathcal{L}(X)$ and…

Suppose $X$ and $Y$ are Banach spaces, $K$ is a compact Hausdorff space, $\Sigma$ is the $\sigma$-algebra of Borel subsets of $K$, $C(K,X)$ is the Banach space of all continuous $X$-valued functions (with the supremum norm), and…

We study finite subsets of $\ell_p$ and show that, up to nowhere dense and Haar null complement, all of them embed isometrically into any Banach space that uniformly contains the spaces $\ell_p^n$, $n \in \mathbb{N}$.
