We define and prove the existence of free Banach lattices in the category of Banach lattices and contractive lattice homomorphisms and establish some of their fundamental properties. We give much more detailed results about their structure…

We study free Banach lattices over pre-ordered Banach spaces in the category of Banach lattices of a given convexity type. These generalise the free Banach lattices under convexity conditions over Banach spaces in the literature. Their…

We study distinguished objects in the category $\mathcal{BL}$ of Banach lattices and lattice homomorphisms. The free Banach lattice construction introduced by de Pagter and Wickstead generates push-outs, and combining this with an old…

A well-known classical result states that $c_0$ is linearly embeddable in a Banach lattice if and only if it is lattice embeddable. Improving results of H.P.~Lotz, H.P.~Rosenthal and N.~Ghoussoub, we prove that $C[0,1]$ shares this property…

In this paper we study the structure of the set $\mbox{Hom}(X,\mathbb{R})$ of all lattice homomorphisms from a Banach lattice $X$ into $\mathbb{R}$. Using the relation among lattice homomorphisms and disjoint families, we prove that the…

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 introduce the free Banach lattice generated by a lattice L. We give an explicit description of it and we study some of its properties for the case when $\mathbb{L}$ is a linear order, like the countable chain condition.

We prove a fundamental property: the free vector lattice $FVL[E]$ over a Banach space E is order dense in the free p-convex Banach lattice $FBL^{(p)}[E],~~1 ^leq p \leq \infty,$ if and only if E is finite-dimensional. In a recent work,…

A well-known theorem due to R. C. James states that a Banach space is reflexive if and only if every bounded linear functional attains its norm. In this note we study Banach lattices on which every (real-valued) lattice homomorphism attains…

Building on a recent construction of G. Plebanek and the third named author, it is shown that a complemented subspace of a Banach lattice need not be linearly isomorphic to a Banach lattice. This solves a long-standing open question in…

Ordered vector spaces E and F are said to be order isomorphic if there is a (not necessarily linear) bijection between them that preserves order. We investigate some situations under which an order isomorphism between two Banach lattices…

We show how the existence of various free vector lattices and free vector lattice algebras can be derived from a theorem on equational classes in universal algebra. A discussion about free $f$-algebras over non-empty sets is given, where…

The free Banach lattice over a Banach space is introduced and analyzed. This generalizes the concept of free Banach lattice over a set of generators, and allows us to study the Nakano property and the density character of non-degenerate…

Given a category of objects, it is both useful and important to know if all the objects in the category may be realised as sub-objects -- via morphisms in the given category -- of a single object in that category enjoying some nice…

Let $E$ be a Banach lattice. Its ideal center $Z(E)$ is embedded naturally in the ideal center $Z(E')$ of its dual. The embedding may be extended to a contractive algebra and lattice homomorphism of $Z(E)"$ into $Z(E')$. We show that the…

For a metric compact space $L$ and a Banach space $E$, we provide a characterization of the complementability of the Banach space $\mathcal{C}(L)$ of continuous functions on $L$ inside $E$ in terms of the existence of a certain tree in the…

An infinite dimensional notion of asymptotic structure is considered. This notion is developed in terms of trees and branches on Banach spaces. Every countably infinite countably branching tree $\mathcal T$ of a certain type on a space X is…

Let C be an axiomatizable class of order continuous real or complex Banach lattices, that is, this class is closed under isometric vector lattice isomorphisms and ultraproducts, and the complementary class is closed under ultrapowers. We…

While the Bloch spectrum of translationally invariant noninteracting lattice models is trivially obtained by a Fourier transformation, diagonalizing the same problem in the presence of open boundary conditions is typically only possible…

We prove the existence of free objects in certain subcategories of Banach lattices, including $p$-convex Banach lattices, Banach lattices with upper $p$-estimates, and AM-spaces. From this we immediately deduce that projectively universal…
