We show that if a Banach lattice is projective, then every bounded sequence that can be mapped by a homomorphism onto the basis of $c_0$ must contain an $\ell_1$-subsequence. As a consequence, if Banach lattices $\ell_p$ or $FBL[E]$ are…

We show that there exists a strong uniform embedding from any proper metric space into any Banach space without cotype. Then we prove a result concerning the Lipschitz embedding of locally finite subsets of $\mathcal{L}_{p}$-spaces. We use…

Assume that $X$ is a Banach space of measurable functions for which Koml\'os' Theorem holds. We associate to any closed convex bounded subset $C$ of $X$ a coefficient $t(C)$ which attains its minimum value when $C$ is closed for the…

Defect of compactness for non-compact imbeddings of Banach spaces can be expressed in the form of a profile decomposition. This paper extends the profile decomposition for Sobolev spaces proved by Solimini (AIHP 1995) to the non-reflexive…

We give a new proof of a recent characterization by Diaz and Mayoral of compactness in the Lebesgue-Bochner spaces $L_X^p$, where $X$ is a Banach space and $1\le p<\infty$, and extend the result to vector-valued Banach function spaces…

It is shown that if the dual of a Banach space, $X^*$, where the dual ball is weak* sequentially compact, has the weak* uniform Kadec-Klee property then $X^*$ has Property($K^*$). An example is given where the reverse implication does not…

For every Banach space $Z$ with a shrinking unconditional basis satisfying upper $p$-estimates for some $p > 1$, an isomorphically polyhedral Banach space is constructed having an unconditional basis and admitting a quotient isomorphic to…

In this paper, we study the existence of the random approximations and fixed points for random almost lower semicontinuous operators defined on finite dimensional Banach spaces, which in addition, are condensing or 1-set-contractive. Our…

Let $E$ be a Banach space and $\X$ be the closed unit ball of the dual space $E^*$. For a compact set $K$ in $E$, we prove that $K$ is polynomially convex in $E$ if and only if there exist a unital commutative Banach algebra $A$ and a…

We introduce a weakened version of the Dunford-Pettis property, and give examples of Banach spaces with this property. In particular, we show that every closed subspace of Schreier's space $S$ enjoys it. As an application, we characterize…

We characrterize extreme contractions defined between \ finite-dimensional polyhedral Banach spaces using $k$- smoothness of operators. We also explore weak L-P property, a recently introduced concept in the study of extreme contractions.…

We study $p$-limited and almost $p$-limited sets in Banach lattices and their connections with relatively $p$-compact and relatively compact sets. We investigate the weak and the strong Gelfand-Phillips property of order $p$, as well as the…

We present a way to turn an arbitrary (unbounded) metric space $\mathcal{M}$ into a bounded metric space $\mathcal{B}$ in such a way that the corresponding Lipschitz-free spaces $\mathcal{F}(\mathcal{M})$ and $\mathcal{F}(\mathcal{B})$ are…

We show that the existence of a strongly convex function with a Lipschitz derivative on a Banach space already implies that the space is isomorphic to a Hilbert space. Similarly, if both a function and its convex conjugate are $C^2$ then…

For Banach spaces X and Y, we establish a natural bijection between preduals of Y and preduals of L(X,Y) that respect the right L(X)-module structure. If X is reflexive, it follows that there is a unique predual making L(X) into a dual…

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…

We prove that if $\omega _1$ and $\omega _2$ are moderate weights and $\mascB$ is a suitable (quasi-)Banach function space, then a necessary and sufficient condition for the embedding $i\, :\, M (\omega _1,\mascB )\to M (\omega _2,\mascB )$…

The fundamental Filippov-Wazwski Relaxation Theorem states that the solution set of an initial value problem for a locally Lipschitz inclusion is dense in the solution set of the same initial value problem for the corresponding relaxation…

We study two types of approximations of Lipschitz maps with derivatives of maximal slopes on Banach spaces. First, we characterize the Radon-Nikod\'ym property in terms of strongly norm attaining Lipschitz maps and maximal derivative…

It is shown that if $C$ is a nonempty convex and weakly compact subset of a Banach space $X$ with $M(X)>1$ and $T:C\rightarrow C$ satisfies condition $(C)$ or is continuous and satisfies condition $(C_{\lambda})$ for some $\lambda \in…
