We show that the Lipschitz-free space $\mathcal{F}(X)$ over a superreflexive Banach space $X$ has the property that every weakly precompact subset of $\mathcal{F}(X)$ is relatively super weakly compact, showing that this space "behaves like…

We give a sufficient condition for a pair of Banach spaces $(X,Y)$ to have the following property: whenever $W_1 \subseteq X$ and $W_2 \subseteq Y$ are sets such that $\{x\otimes y: \, x\in W_1, \, y\in W_2\}$ is weakly precompact in the…

We show that if a Banach space X has the weak fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings and Y has the generalized Gossez-Lami Dozo property or is uniformly convex in every direction, then the direct sum of X and Y with a strictly…

Given Banach spaces E and F, we denote by ${\mathcal P}(^k!E,F)$ the space of all k-homogeneous (continuous) polynomials from E into F, and by ${\mathcal P}_{wb}(^k!E,F)$ the subspace of polynomials which are weak-to-norm continuous on…

We give a class of bounded closed sets $C$ in a Banach space satisfying a generalized and stronger form of the Bishop-Phelps property studied by Bourgain in \cite{Bj} for dentable sets. A version of the {\it ``Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as"}…

The aim of this article is to study effective Reifenberg theorems for measures in a Hilbert or Banach space. For Hilbert spaces, we see all the results from $\mathbb{R}^n$ continue to hold with no additional restrictions. For a general…

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 us consider a Banach space $X$ with the property that every real-valued Lipschitz function $f$ can be uniformly approximated by a Lipschitz, $C^1$-smooth function $g$ with $\Lip(g)\le C \Lip(f)$ (with $C$ depending only on the space…

In this paper the theory of uniformly convex metric spaces is developed. These spaces exhibit a generalized convexity of the metric from a fixed point. Using a (nearly) uniform convexity property a simple proof of reflexivity is presented…

We construct a reflexive Banach space $X_\mathcal{D}$ with an unconditional basis such that all spreading models admitted by normalized block sequences in $X_\mathcal{D}$ are uniformly equivalent to the unit vector basis of $\ell_1$, yet…

We present some extensions of classical results that involve elements of the dual of Banach spaces, such as Bishop-Phelp's theorem and James' compactness theorem, but restricting to sets of functionals determined by geometrical properties.…

Let $X$ be a Banach space with the unit ball $B(X)$ and $A\subset X$ be a convex origin-symmetric compact in $X$. Let $\mathrm{j}:X\rightarrow \widetilde{X}$ be an isometric extension of $X$. It is well-known that linear widths $\lambda…

A Banach space is said to have the Lebesgue property if every Riemann-integrable function $f:[0,1]\to X$ is Lebesgue almost everywhere continuous. We give a characterization of the Lebesgue property in terms of a new sequential asymptotic…

A Banach space $X$ is said to have property ($\mu^s$) if every weak$^*$-null sequence in $X^*$ admits a subsequence such that all of its subsequences are Ces\`{a}ro convergent to $0$ with respect to the Mackey topology. This is stronger…

We introduce a suitable notion of asymptotic smoothness on infinite dimensional Banach spaces, and we prove that, under some structural restrictions on the space, the convex envelope of an asymptotically smooth function is asymptotically…

We prove some results on weakly almost square Banach spaces and their relatives. On the one hand, we discuss weak almost squareness in the setting of Banach function spaces. More precisely, let $(\Omega,\Sigma)$ be a measurable space, let…

In this paper we study very smooth points of Banach spaces with special emphasis on spaces of operators. We show that when the space of compact operators is an $M$-ideal in the space of bounded operators, a very smooth operator $T$ attains…

A Banach space $X$ has the $Mazur$-$Ulam$ $property$ if any isometry from the unit sphere of $X$ onto the unit sphere of any other Banach space $Y$ extends to a linear isometry of the Banach spaces $X,Y$. A Banach space $X$ is called…

For each ordinal $\xi$, we define the notions of $\xi$-asymptotically uniformly smooth and $w^*$-$\xi$-asymptotically uniformly convex operators. When $\xi=0$, these extend the notions of asymptotically uniformly smooth and…

We introduce the strong Gelfand-Phillips property for locally convex spaces and give several characterizations of this property. We characterize the strong Gelfand-Phillips property among locally convex spaces admitting a stronger Banach…
