Given an infinite matrix $M=(m_{nk})$ we study a family of sequence spaces $\ell_M^p$ associated with it. When equipped with a suitable norm $\|\cdot\|_{M,p}$ we prove some basic properties of the Banach spaces of sequences…

We prove that, when $2<p<\infty$, in the free Banach lattice generated by $\ell_p$ (respectively by $c_0$), the absolute values of the canonical basis form an $\ell_r$-sequence, where $\frac{1}{r} = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{p}$ (respectively…

Many of the known complemented subspaces of L_p have realizations as sequence spaces. In this paper a systematic approach to defining these spaces which uses partitions and weights is introduced. This approach gives a unified description of…

\begin{abstract} Suppose $p$ is a computable real so that $p \geq 1$. It is shown that the halting set can compute a surjective linear isometry between any two computable copies of $\ell^p$. It is also shown that this result is optimal in…

In this paper, we investigate the geometric properties of the variable mixed Lebesgue-sequence space $\ell^{q(\cdot)} (L^{p(\cdot)})$ as a Banach space. We show that, if $ 1<q_-,p_-,q_+,p_+<\infty $, then $\ell^{q(\cdot)} (L^{p(\cdot)})$ is…

We study some structural aspects of the subspaces of the non-commutative (Haagerup) L_p-spaces associated with a general (non necessarily semi-finite) von Neumann algebra A. If a subspace X of L_p(A) contains uniformly the spaces \ell_p^n,…

We introduce and investigate a class of non-separable tree-like Banach spaces. As a consequence, we prove that we can not achieve a satisfactory extension of Rosenthal's $\ell_1$-theorem to spaces of the type $\ell_1(\kappa)$, for $\kappa$…

Let~$\mathcal{A}$ be an almost disjoint family of subsets of an infinite set~$\Gamma$, and denote by~$X_{\mathcal{A}}$ the closed subspace of~$\ell_\infty(\Gamma)$ spanned by the indicator functions of intersections of finitely many sets…

Let $X$ be a Banach space. We prove that, for a large class of Banach or quasi-Banach spaces $E$ of $X$-valued sequences, the sets $E-\bigcup _{q\in\Gamma}\ell_{q}(X)$, where $\Gamma$ is any subset of $(0,\infty]$, and $E-c_{0}(X)$ contain…

We improve the known results about the complexity of the relation of isomorphism between separable Banach spaces up to Borel reducibility, and we achieve this using the classical spaces $c_0$, $\ell_p$ and $L_p$, $1 \leq p <2$. More…

For a separable rearrangement invariant space $X$ on $(0,\infty)$ of fundamental type we identify the set of all $p\in [1,\infty]$ such that $\ell^p$ is finitely represented in $X$ in such a way that the unit basis vectors of $\ell^p$…

We provide two examples of complex homogeneous quadratic polynomials P on Banach spaces of the form l_1(I). The first polynomial P has both separable and nonseparable maximal zero subspaces. The second polynomial P has the property that…

A result of G. Godefroy asserts that a Banach space $X$ contains an isomorphic copy of $\ell_1$ if and only if there is an equivalent norm $|||\cdot|||$ such that, for every finite-dimensional subspace $Y$ of $X$ and every $\varepsilon>0$,…

We consider an $\ell^p$ coarse Baum-Connes assembly map for $1<p<\infty$, and show that it is not surjective for expanders arising from residually finite hyperbolic groups.

We show that a complemented subspace of a locally convex direct sum of an uncountable collection of Banach spaces is a locally convex direct sum of complemented subspaces of countable subsums. As a corollary we prove that a complemented…

Let $p$ be a real number greater than one and let $\Gamma$ be a graph of bounded degree. We investigate links between the $p$-harmonic boundary of $\Gamma$ and the $D_p$-massive subsets of $\Gamma$. In particular, if there are $n$ pairwise…

We study Banach spaces X with a strongly asymptotic l_p basis (any disjointly supported finite set of vectors far enough out with respect to the basis behaves like l_p) which are minimal (X embeds into every infinite dimensional subspace).…

In this paper we prove some results related to the problem of isomorphically classifying the complemented subspaces of $X_{p}$. We characterize the complemented subspaces of $X_{p}$ which are isomorphic to $X_{p}$ by showing that such a…

We show that for each $p\in(0,1]$ there exists a separable $p$-Banach space $\mathbb G_p$ of almost universal disposition, that is, having the following extension property: for each $\epsilon>0$ and each isometric embedding $g:X\to Y$,…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and let $\kappa(X)$ denote the kernel of a quotient map $\ell_1(\Gamma)\to X$. We show that $\Ext^2(X,X^*)=0$ if and only if bilinear forms on $\kappa(X)$ extend to $\ell_1(\Gamma)$. From that we obtain i) If…
