We construct symmetric convex bodies that are not intersection bodies, but all of their central hyperplane sections are intersection bodies. This result extends the studies by Weil in the case of zonoids and by Neyman in the case of…

We prove that the isometric embedding of any metric of differentiability class C1 in E3 exists. We use simplified notation for the given metric, namely geodesic parameters, and level parameters for the embedded surface in E3. Central to our…

We obtain two partial answers to the 3-space problem for isomorphic polyhedrality: (1) every twisted sum of $C(\alpha)$, $\alpha<\omega_1$, with a separable isomorphically polyhedral space with the BAP, is isomorphically polyhedral. (2)…

We show that every Banach space containing isomorphic copies of $c_0$ can be equivalently renormed so that every nonempty relatively weakly open subset of its unit ball has diameter 2 and, however, its unit ball still contains convex…

The paper deals with the study of Banach spaces whose duals are injective Banach lattices. Davies in 1967 proved that an ordered Banach space is an $L^1$-predual space if and only if it is a simplex space. In 2007 Duan and Lin proved that a…

The standard theory of Banach spaces is built upon the notions of vector space, triangle inequality and Cauchy completeness. Here we propose a `hyperbolic' variant of this `elliptic' framework where general linear combinations are replaced…

We consider a complete biharmonic immersed submanifold $M$ in an Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^N$. Assume that the immersion is proper, that is, the preimage of every compact set in $\mathbb{E}^N$ is also compact in $M$. Then, we prove that…

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 $\ell_p^n$, $n \in \mathbb{N}$.

We prove that a non ergodic Banach space must be near Hilbert. In particular, $\ell_p$ ($2<p<\infty$) is ergodic. This reinforces the conjecture that $\ell_2$ is the only non ergodic Banach space. As an application of our criterion for…

A Banach space is polyhedral if the unit ball of each of its finite dimensional subspaces is a polyhedron. It is known that a polyhedral Banach space has a separable dual and is $c_0$-saturated, i.e., each closed infinite dimensional…

We show that if the Banach-Mazur distance between an n-dimensional normed space X and ell infinity is at most 3/2, then there exist n+1 equidistant points in X. By a well-known result of Alon and Milman, this implies that an arbitrary…

We derive a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of symmetric space structures on quotients of Banach symmetric spaces. Along the way, we investigate the different kinds of reflection subspaces and their Lie triple systems.

In the nonlinear geometry of Banach spaces where the objects in the category are Banach spaces as in the linear case, the morphisms in the new setting are taken to comprise of certain nonlinear maps involving say, Lipschitz maps and, in…

We refine the well-known Blanco-Koldobsky-Turn\v{s}ek Theorem which states that a norm one linear operator defined on a Banach space is an isometry if and only if it preserves orthogonality at every element of the space. We improve the…

We find conditions for a smooth nonlinear map $f:U\rightarrow V$ between open subsets of Hilbert or Banach spaces to be locally convex in the sense that for some $c$ and each positive $\varepsilon<c$ the image $% f(B_\varepsilon(x))$ of…

We study the problem of the existence of a common algebraic complement for a pair of closed subspaces of a Banach space. We prove the following two characterizations: (1) The pairs of subspaces of a Banach space with a common complement…

We consider the problem of comparing the volumes of two star bodies in an even-dimensional euclidean space $\mathbb R^{2n} = \mathbb C^n$ by comparing their cross sectional areas along complex lines (special 2-dimensional real planes)…

Let $E_1,E_2\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be two homothetic solid ellipsoids, $n\geq 3$, with center at the origin $O$ of a system coordinates of $\mathbb{R}^n$, and $E_1\subset E_2$. Then there exists a $O$-symmetric ellipsoid $E_3$ such that…

We show that a realization of a closed connected PL-manifold of dimension n-1 in n-dimensional Euclidean space (n>2) is the boundary of a convex polyhedron (finite or infinite) if and only if the interior of each (n-3)-face has a point,…

It is known that any normed vector space which satisfies the parallelogram law is actually an inner product space. For finite dimensional normed vector spaces over R, we formulate an approximate version of this theorem: if a space…
