Let $\Gamma$ be a Polish space and let $K$ be a separable and pointwise compact set of real-valued functions on $\Gamma$. It is shown that if each function in $K$ has only countably many discontinuities then $C(K)$ may be equipped with a…

We establish new results on the $\mathcal I$-approximation property for the Banach operator ideal $\mathcal I=\mathcal{K}_{up}$ of the unconditionally $p$-compact operators in the case of $1\le p<2$. As a consequence of our results, we…

We prove that a non ergodic Banach space must be near Hilbert. In particular, $\ell_p$ ($2<p<\infty$) is ergodic. This reinforces the conjecture that $\ell_2$ is the only non ergodic Banach space. As an application of our criterion for…

We study the $p$-spectrum of a locally symmetric space of constant curvature $\Gamma\backslash X$, in connection with the right regular representation of the full isometry group $G$ of $X$ on $L^2(\Gamma\backslash G)_{\tau_p}$, where…

We present a new proof of a Sundaresan's result which shows that the space of orthogonally additive polynomials $\mathcal{P}_o(^k\ell_p)$ is isometrically isomorphic to $\ell_{p/p-k}$ if $k<p<\infty$ and to $\ell_\infty$ if $1\leq p\leq k$.

Let $\cal M$ be a semi-finite von Neumann algebra equipped with a distinguished faithful, normal, semi-finite trace $\tau$. We introduce the notion of equi-integrability in non-commutative spaces and show that if a rearrangement invariant…

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…

A well known argument of James yields that if a Banach space $X$ contains $\ell_1^n$'s uniformly then $X$ contains $\ell_1^n$'s almost isometrically. In the first half of the paper we extend this idea to the ordinal $\ell_1$-indices of…

For a separable symmetric sequence space $X$ of fundamental type we identify the set ${\mathcal F}(X)$ of all $p\in [1,\infty]$ such that $\ell^p$ is block finitely represented in the unit vector basis $\{e_k\}_{k=1}^\infty$ of $X$ in such…

We prove that the Lipschitz-free space over a Banach space $X$ of density $\kappa$, denoted by $\mathcal{F}(X)$, is linearly isomorphic to its $\ell_1$-sum $\left(\bigoplus_{\kappa}\mathcal{F}(X)\right)_{\ell_1}$. This provides an extension…

It is known that there exists a Banach space $X$ with a Schauder basis $(e_i)_{i=1}^{\infty}$ which does not admit $\ell_p$ as the model space obtained by a finite chain of sequences such that each element is a spreading model of a block…

We consider $\ell_p$-direct sums ($1\leq p<\infty$) and $c_0$-direct sums of countably many normed spaces and find the duals of these spaces. We characterize the support functionals of arbitrary elements in these spaces to characterize…

Let $p$ be a real number greater than one and let $G$ be a finitely generated, infinite group. In this paper we introduce the $p$-harmonic boundary of $G$. We then characterize the vanishing of the first reduced $\ell^p$-cohomology of $G$…

We characterize metric spaces whose Lipschitz free space is isometric to $\ell_1$. In particular, the Lipschitz free space over an ultrametric space is not isometric to $\ell_1(\Gamma)$ for any set $\Gamma$. We give a lower bound for the…

Let $\lambda$ be a large enough cardinal number (assuming GCH it suffices to let $\lambda=\aleph_\omega$). If $X$ is a Banach space with $\text{dens}(X)\ge\lambda$, which admits a coarse (or uniform) embedding into any $c_0(\Gamma)$, then…

In this paper, we introduce the notions uniformly p-convergent sets and weakly p-sequentially continuous differentiable mappings. Then we obtain a sufficient condition for those Banach spaces which either contain no copy of $\ell_1$ or have…

It is shown that the weak $L^p$ spaces $\ell^{p,\infty}, L^{p,\infty}[0,1]$, and $L^{p,\infty}[0,\infty)$ are isomorphic as Banach spaces.

Suppose $X$ is a real or complexified Banach space containing a complemented copy of $\ell_p$, $p\in(1,2)$, and a copy (not necessarily complemented) of either $\ell_q$, $q\in(p,\infty)$, or $c_0$. Then $\mathcal{L}(X)$ and…

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…

Let $G$ be a reductive group over a field $k$ which is algebraically closed of characteristic $p \neq 0$. We prove a structure theorem for a class of subgroup schemes of $G$, for $p$ bounded below by the Coxeter number of $G$. As…
