In this paper, without the axiom of choice, we show that if a certain downward L\"owenheim-Skolem property holds then all grounds are uniformly definable. We also prove that the axiom of choice is forceable if and only if the universe is a…
In the first part of the paper we study the structure of Banach spaces with a conditional spreading basis. The geometry of such spaces exhibit a striking resemblance to the geometry of James' space. Further, we show that the averaging…
A Banach space $X$ with a Schauder basis is defined to have the restricted quotient hereditarily indecomposable (QHI) property if $X/Y$ is hereditarily indecomposable (HI) for any infinite codimensional subspace $Y$ with a successive…
In this note we show that every Banach space $X$ not containing $\ell_1^n$ uniformly and with unconditional basis contains an arbitrarily distortable subspace.
We give counterexamples to a conjecture of Bourgain, Casazza, Lindenstrauss and Tzafriri that if X has a unique unconditional basis (up to permutation) then so does c_0(X). In particular, we show that for Tsirelson's space T, every…
Let $A,X,Y$ be Banach spaces and $A\times X\to Y$, $(a,x)\mapsto ax$, be a continuous bilinear function, called a *Banach action*. We say that this action *preserves unconditional convergence* if for every bounded sequence…
We consider a system of ODE in a Fr\'echet space with unconditional Schauder basis. The right side of the ODE is a discontinuous function. Under certain monotonicity conditions we prove an existence theorem for the corresponding initial…
We establish a linear variational principle extending the Deville-Godefroy-Zizler's one. We use this variational principle to prove that if $X$ is a Banach space having property $(\alpha)$ of Schachermayer and $Y$ is any banach space, then…
We prove the following two results. Theorem A: Let alpha be a limit ordinal. Suppose that 2^{|alpha|}<aleph_alpha and 2^{|alpha|^+}<aleph_{|alpha|^+}, whereas aleph_alpha^{|alpha|}>aleph_{|alpha|^+}. Then for all n< omega and for all…
It is shown that the Schreier space X admits a set of continuum cardinality whose elements are mutually incomparable complemented subspaces spanned by subsequences of the natural Schauder basis of X.
Let $A(k)u(k)=f(k) (1)$ be an operator equation, $X$ and $Y$ are Banach spaces, $k\in\Delta\subset\C$ is a parameter, $A(k):X\to Y$ is a map, possibly nonlinear. Sufficient conditions are given for continuity of $u(k)$ with respect to $k$.…
We introduce a forcing that adds a $\square(\aleph_2,\aleph_0)$-sequence with countable conditions under CH. Assuming the consistency of a weakly compact cardinal, we can find a forcing extension by our new poset in which both…
Let $G$ be a finite permutation group acting on a set $\Omega$. An ordered sequence $(\omega_1,\ldots,\omega_\ell)$ of elements of $\Omega$ is an irredundant base for $G$ if the pointwise stabilizer of the sequence is trivial and no point…
Let $H$ be an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. We prove that every unconditional Schauder frame for $H$ contains a subsequence that can be normalized to form a frame for $H$. As a consequence, every semi-normalized unconditional Schauder…
For Fr{\'e}chet spaces E and F we write (E,F) \in {B} if every continuous linear operator from E to F is bounded. Let l be a Banach sequence space with a monotone norm in which the canonical system (e_{n}) is an unconditional basis. We…
This paper is devoted to providing a unifying approach to the study of the uniqueness of unconditional bases, up to equivalence and permutation, of infinite direct sums of quasi-Banach spaces. Our new approach to this type of problem…
In a previous work, the first named author described the set $\cal P$ of all values of the Szlenk indices of separable Banach spaces. We complete this result by showing that for any integer $n$ and any ordinal $\alpha$ in $\cal P$, there…
Property~(A) is a week symmetry condition that plays a fundamental role in the characterization of greedy-type bases in the isometric case, i.e., when the constants involved in the study of the efficiency of the thresholding greedy…
A Banach algebra $A$ is said to be zero Lie product determined if every continuous bilinear functional $\varphi \colon A\times A\to \mathbb{C}$ satisfying $\varphi(a,b)=0$ whenever $ab=ba$ is of the form $\varphi(a,b)=\omega(ab-ba)$ for…
We present a reflexive Banach space with an unconditional basis which is quasi-minimal and tight by range, i.e. of type (4) in Ferenczi-Rosendal list within the framework of Gowers' classification program of Banach spaces. The space is an…
