Cembranos and Freniche proved that for every two infinite compact Hausdorff spaces $X$ and $Y$ the Banach space $C(X\times Y)$ of continuous real-valued functions on $X\times Y$ endowed with the supremum norm contains a complemented copy of…

The classical Banach--Mazur theorem asserts that every separable Banach space admits an isometric embedding into $C[0,1]$. It is also well known that every separable Banach space embeds isometrically into $\ell^\infty$. We show that such an…

The present paper contributes to the ongoing programme of quantification of isomorphic Banach space theory focusing on Pe{\l}czy\'nski's classical work on dual Banach spaces containing $L_{1}$ ($=L_{1}[0,1]$) and the Hagler--Stegall…

We prove that the subspace $c_0$ of sequences that converge to zero is not complemented in the space $ac_0$ of sequences that almost converge to zero. We proceed with applying the same approach to inclusion chain $c_0\subset A_0 \subset…

We study Banach spaces induced by families of finite sets in the most natural (Schreier-like) way, that is, we consider the completion $X_\mc{F}$ of $c_{00}$ with respect to the norm $\sup\{\sum_{k\in F}|x(k)|:F\in\mc{F}\}$ where $\mc{F}$…

We give a description of the continuity ideals and the kernels of homomorphisms from the algebras of continuous functions on locally compact spaces into Banach algebras.

This paper is concerned with the isomorphic structure of the Banach space $\ell_\infty/c_0$ and how it depends on combinatorial tools whose existence is consistent but not provable from the usual axioms of ZFC. Our main global result is…

We study commutants modulo some normed ideal of n-tuples of operators which satisfy a certain approximate unit condition relative to the ideal. We obtain results about the quotient of these Banach algebras by their ideal of compact…

It is proved that if a Banach space $Y$ is a quotient of a Banach space having a shrinking unconditional basis, then every normalized weakly null sequence in $Y$ has an unconditional subsequence. The proof yields the corollary that every…

Given a compact Hausdorff space $K$ we consider the Banach space of real continuous functions $C(K^n)$ or equivalently the $n$-fold injective tensor product $\hat\bigotimes_{\varepsilon}C(K)$ or the Banach space of vector valued continuous…

The main result says that every surjective isometry between two ideal Banach function spaces satisfying certain conditions can be presented as a composition of a measurable transformation of a variable and multiplication by a function.

We classify the closed ideals of bounded operators acting on the Banach spaces $\left(\bigoplus_{n \in \mathbb{N}} \ell_2^n\right)_{c_0} \oplus c_0(\Gamma)$ and $\left(\bigoplus_{n \in \mathbb{N}} \ell_2^n\right)_{\ell_1} \oplus…

It is known that a Banach space contains an isomorphic copy of $c_0$ if, and only if, it can be equivalently renormed to be almost square. We introduce and study transfinite versions of almost square Banach spaces with the purpose to relate…

Previously only two examples of Banach space quotient maps which do not admit uniformly continuous right inverses were known: one due to Aharoni and Lindenstrauss and one due to Kalton ($\ell^\infty\to\ell^\infty/c_{0}$). We show through an…

We formulate general conditions which imply that $L(X,Y)$, the space of operators from a Banach space $X$ to a Banach space $Y$, has $2^{\mathfrak c}$ closed ideals where $\mathfrak c$ is the cardinality of the continuum. These results are…

We show that finite dimensional Banach spaces fail to be uniformly non locally almost square. Moreover, we construct an equivalent almost square bidual norm on $\ell_\infty.$ As a consequence we get that every dual Banach space containing…

A Banach space is said to be Grothendieck if weak and weak$^*$ convergent sequences in the dual space coincide. This notion has been quantificated by H. Bendov\'{a}. She has proved that $\ell_\infty$ has the quantitative Grothendieck…

We exhibit a new approach to the proofs of the existence of a large family of almost isometric ideals in nonseparable Banach spaces and existence of a large family of almost isometric local retracts in metric spaces. Our approach also…

We study finite subsets of $\ell_p$ and show that, up to nowhere dense and Haar null complement, all of them embed isometrically into any Banach space that uniformly contains the spaces $\ell_p^n$, $n \in \mathbb{N}$.

We investigate the space of bounded linear operators on a Banach space equipped with a norm which is equivalent to the operator norm such that the subspace of compact operators is an M-ideal. In particular, we observe that the space of…
