There are two main aims of the paper. The first one is to extend the criterion for the precompactness of sets in Banach function spaces to the setting of quasi-Banach function spaces. The second one is to extend the criterion for the…

We survey recent developments on the structure of complemented subspaces of Banach lattices, including in particular the construction of a complemented subspace of a $C(K)$-space which is not linearly isomorphic to any Banach lattice.…

Let C(K) denote the Banach algebra of continuous real functions, with the supremum norm, on a compact Hausdorff space K. For two subsets of C(K), one can define their product by pointwise multiplication, just as the Minkowski sum of the…

Let $\Ps(\N)$ be the set of all finite subsets of $\N$, endowed with the product topology. A description of the compact subsets of $\Ps(\N)$ is given. Two applications of this result to Banach space theory are shown : (1) a characterization…

We show that norms on certain Banach spaces $X$ can be approximated uniformly, and with arbitrary precision, on bounded subsets of $X$ by $C^{\infty}$ smooth norms and polyhedral norms. In particular, we show that this holds for any…

The question which led to the title of this note is the following: {\it If $X$ is a Banach space and $K$ is a compact subset of $X$, is it possible to find a compact, or even approximable, operator $v:X\to X$ such that…

We prove two weak compactness criteria in Musielak-Orlicz spaces for $N$-functions satisfying the $\Delta_2$-condition. They extend criteria from And\^o for Orlicz spaces to this setting of non-symmetrical Banach function spaces. As…

We conjecture that whenever $M$ is a metric space of density at most continuum, then the space of Lipschitz functions is $w^*$-separable. We prove the conjecture for several classes of metric spaces including all the Banach spaces with a…

The objective of this paper is to introduce the notion of generalized almost statistical (briefly, GAS) convergence of bounded real sequences, which generalizes the notion of almost convergence as well as statistical convergence of bounded…

We study Banach envelopes for commutative symmetric sequence or function spaces, and noncommutative symmetric spaces of measurable operators. We characterize the class $(HC)$ of quasi-normed symmetric sequence or function spaces $E$ for…

We prove that the unit cube $B^n_{\infty}$ is a strict local minimizer for the Mahler volume product $vol_n(K)vol_n(K^*)$ in the class of origin symmetric convex bodies endowed with the Banach-Mazur distance.

We prove that the following three properties for a Banach space are all different from each other: every finite convex combination of slices of the unit ball is (1) relatively weakly open, (2) has nonempty interior in relative weak topology…

It has been very recently discovered that there are compact linear operators between Banach spaces which cannot be approximated by norm attaining operators. The aim of this expository paper is to give an overview of those examples and also…

We prove several dichotomies on linear embeddings between Banach spaces. Given an arbitrary Banach space X with a basis, we show that the relations of isomorphism and bi-embedding are meager or co-meager on the Polish set of block-subspaces…

We introduce and study Banach spaces which have property CWO, i.e., every finite convex combination of relatively weakly open subsets of their unit ball is open in the relative weak topology of the unit ball. Stability results of such…

We introduce the operators "modified limit" and "accumulation" on a Banach space, and we use this to define what we mean by being internally computable over the space. We prove that any externally computable function from a computable…

We investigate for a bounded semigroup of linear operators $S$ on a Banach space $E$ and a vector $x \in E$, when relative compactness of $S(I-T)x$ for every $T \in S$ implies relative compactness of the orbit $Sx$. In particular, we derive…

It is well-known that in Banach spaces with finite cotype, the $R$-bounded and $\gamma$-bounded families of operators coincide. If in addition $X$ is a Banach lattice, then these notions can be expressed as square function estimates. It is…

This note corrects a gap and improves results in an earlier paper by the first named author. More precisely, it is shown that on weakly compactly generated Banach spaces X which admit a C^{p} smooth norm, one can uniformly approximate…

In this paper, the convergence of alternating minimization is established for non-smooth convex optimization in Banach spaces, and novel rates of convergence are provided. As objective function a composition of a smooth and a non-smooth…
