We investigate the structure of the free $p$-convex Banach lattice $FBL^{(p)}[E]$ over a Banach space $E$. After recalling why such a free lattice exists, and giving a convenient functional representation of it, we focus our study on how…
The relation between the free Banach lattice generated by a Banach space and free dual spaces is clarified. In particular, it is shown that for every Banach space $E$ the free $p$-convex Banach lattice generated by $E^{**}$, denoted…
We study different versions of \emph{free objects} in the setting of quasi-Banach spaces and quasi-Banach lattices. Special attention is devoted to the free $p$-convex $p$-Banach lattice $\operatorname{FpBL}^{(p)}[E]$ generated by a…
We begin by describing the unit ball of the free $p$-convex Banach lattice over a Banach space $E$ (denoted by ${\mathrm{FBL}}^{(p)}[E]$) as a closed solid convex hull of an appropriate set. Based on it, we show that, if a Banach space $E$…
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…
The notions of $p$-convexity and concavity are fundamental tools for studying Banach lattices, as they partition the class of Banach lattices into a scale of spaces with $L_p$-like properties. Upper and lower $p$-estimates provide a…
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,…
The construction of the free Banach lattice generated by a real Banach space is extended to the complex setting. It is shown that for every complex Banach space $E$ there is a complex Banach lattice $FBL_{\mathbb C}[E]$ containing a linear…
We study some properties of the randomized series and their applications to the geometric structure of Banach spaces. For $n\ge 2$ and $1<p<\infty$, it is shown that $\ell_\infty^n$ is representable in a Banach space $X$ if and only if it…
This paper initiates the study of the structure of a new class of $p$-Banach spaces, $0<p<1$, namely the Lipschitz free $p$-spaces (alternatively called Arens-Eells $p$-spaces) $\mathcal{F}_{p}(\mathcal{M})$ over $p$-metric spaces. We…
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…
We show that inclusions of $p$-metric spaces always produce genuine linear embeddings at the level of Lipschitz-free $p$-spaces. More precisely, for every $0<p<1$ and every inclusion $ \mathit{N}\subset \mathit{M}$ of $p$-metric spaces, the…
We construct and analyze the free Banach $f\!$-algebra $\operatorname{FB{\it f}A}[E]$ generated by a Banach space $E$, extending recent developments on free Banach lattices to the setting of Banach $f\!$-algebras, where multiplication…
Let N and M be von Neumann algebras. It is proved that L^p(N) does not Banach embed in L^p(M) for N infinite, M finite, 1 < or = p < 2. The following considerably stronger result is obtained (which implies this, since the Schatten p-class…
In this paper, we study octahedral norms in free Banach lattices $FBL[E]$ generated by a Banach space $E$. We prove that if $E$ is an $L_1(\mu)$-space, a predual of von Neumann algebra, a predual of a JBW$^*$-triple, the dual of an…
Our goal in this paper is to continue the study initiated by the authors in [Lipschitz free $p$-spaces for $0<p<1$; arXiv:1811.01265 [math.FA]] of the geometry of the Lipschitz free $p$-spaces over quasimetric spaces for $0<p\le1$, denoted…
We show that the free Banach lattice $\mathrm{FBL}(A)$ may be constructed as the completion of $\mathrm{FVL}(A)$ with respect to the maximal lattice seminorm $\nu$ on $\mathrm{FVL}(A)$ with $\nu(a)\le 1$ for all $a\in A$. We present a…
In this article we deal with the free Banach lattice generated by a lattice and its behavior with respect to subspaces. In general, any lattice embedding $i\colon \mathbb{L} \longrightarrow \mathbb{M}$ between two lattices $\mathbb{L}…
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…
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…
