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…

A pair of Banach spaces $(E, F)$ is said to have the weak maximizing property (WMP, for short) if for every bounded linear operator $T$ from $E$ into $F$, the existence of a non-weakly null maximizing sequence for $T$ implies that $T$…

We continue the investigation of the behaviour of octahedral norms in tensor products of Banach spaces. Firstly, we will prove the existence of a Banach space $Y$ such that the injective tensor products $l_1\widehat{\otimes}_\varepsilon Y$…

In this note, we study the Arens regularity of projective tensor product $A\hat{\otimes}B$ whenever $A$ and $B$ are Arens regular. We establish some new conditions for showing that the Banach algebras $A$ and $B$ are Arens regular if and…

We investigate M-ideals of compact operators and two distinct properties in norm-attaining operator theory related with M-ideals of compact operators called the weak maximizing property and the compact perturbation property. For Banach…

Let $X$ be a separable Banach space, $Y$ be a Banach space and $\Lambda$ be a subset of the dual group of a given compact metrizable abelian group. We prove that if $X^*$ and $Y$ have the type I-$\Lambda$-RNP (resp. type II-$\Lambda$-RNP)…

It is shown that if a Banach space X has the weak Banach-Saks property and the weak fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings and Y satisfies property asymptotic (P) (which is weaker than the condition WCS(Y)>1), then the direct sum of…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $Y \subseteq X$ be a closed subspace. We prove that if the quotient $X/Y$ is weakly Lindel\"{o}f determined or weak Asplund, then for every $w^*$-convergent sequence $(y_n^*)_{n\in \mathbb N}$ in $Y^*$ there…

For $C^{*}$-algebras $A$ and $B$, the operator space projective tensor product $A\hat{\otimes}B$ and the Banach space projective tensor product $A\otimes_{\gamma}B$ are shown to be symmetric. We also show that $A\hat{\otimes}B$ is weakly…

In this paper, we study the (uniform) strong subdifferentiability of the norms of the Banach spaces $\mathcal{P}(^N X, Y^*)$, $X \hat{\otimes}_\pi \cdots \hat{\otimes}_\pi X$ and $\hat{\otimes}_{\pi_s,N} X$. Among other results, we…

We give some characterizations of disjointly weakly compact sets in Banach lattices, namely, those sets in whose solid hulls every disjoint sequence converges weakly to zero. As an application, we prove that a bounded linear operator from a…

The main results of the paper: {\bf (1)} The dual Banach space $X^*$ contains a linear subspace $A\subset X^*$ such that the set $A^{(1)}$ of all limits of weak$^*$ convergent bounded nets in $A$ is a proper norm-dense subset of $X^*$ if…

Let $ X=(X_0,X_1)$ and $ Y=(Y_0,Y_1)$ be Banach couples and suppose $T: X\to Y$ is a linear operator such that $T:X_0\to Y_0$ is compact. We consider the question whether the operator $T:[X_0,X_1]_{\theta}\to [Y_0,Y_1]_{\theta}$ is compact…

Let $X$ be a complex Banach space and $x,y\in X$. By definition, we say that $x$ is Birkhoff-James orthogonal to $y$ if $ \|x+\lambda y\|_{X} \geq \|x\|_{X}$ for all $\lambda \in \mathbb{C}$. We prove that $x$ is Birkhoff-James orthogonal…

In this paper we introduce the notion of $\Delta$-weak character amenable Banach algebras and investigate $\Delta$-weak character amenability of certain Banach algebras such as projective tensor product $A\widehat{\otimes}B$, Lau product…

Given two Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$, we introduce and study a concept of norm-attainment in the space of nuclear operators $\mathcal{N}(X,Y)$ and in the projective tensor product space $X \widehat{\otimes}_\pi Y$. We exhibit positive and…

We analyze various consequences in relation to the extension of operators $T:X\to Y$ that are $p$-compact, as well as the extension of operators $T:X\to Y$ whose adjoints $T^*:Y^*\to X^*$ are $p$-compact. In most cases, we discuss these…

A nonempty closed convex bounded subset $C$ of a Banach space is said to have the weak approximate fixed point property if for every continuous map $f:C\to C$ there is a sequence $\{x_n\}$ in $C$ such that $x_n-f(x_n)$ converge weakly to 0.…

A Banach space $X$ is said to have property (K) if every $w^*$-convergent sequence in $X^*$ admits a convex block subsequence which converges with respect to the Mackey topology. We study the connection of this property with strongly weakly…

In these notes, we study nonlinear embeddings between Banach spaces which are also weakly sequentially continuous. In particular, our main result implies that if a Banach space $X$ coarsely (resp. uniformly) embeds into a Banach space $Y$…
