This article is a continuation of our article in [Canad. J. Math. Vol. 72 (3), (2020), pp. 774--804]. We construct orthogonal bases of the cycle and cut spaces of the Laakso graph $\mathcal{L}_n$. They are used to analyze projections from…

We characterize those classes $\ccc$ of separable Banach spaces admitting a separable universal space $Y$ (that is, a space $Y$ containing, up to isomorphism, all members of $\ccc$) which is not universal for all separable Banach spaces.…

We investigate Banach space automorphisms $T:\ell_\infty/c_0\rightarrow\ell_\infty/c_0 $ focusing on the possibility of representing their fragments of the form $$T_{B,A}:\ell_\infty(A)/c_0(A)\rightarrow \ell_\infty(B)/c_0(B)$$ for $A,…

Upper estimates of the diameter and the radius of the family of all planar convex bodies with respect to the Banach-Mazur distance are obtained. Namely, it is shown that the diameter does not exceed $\tfrac{19-\sqrt{73}}4\approx 2.614$,…

In this note we study the Banach-Mazur distance between the $n$-dimensional cube and the crosspolytope. Previous work shows that the distance has order $\sqrt{n}$, and here we will prove some explicit bounds improving on former results.…

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…

We prove that for any $\ell_\infty$-sum $Z = \bigoplus_{i \in [n]} X_i$ of finitely many strictly convex Banach spaces $(X_i)_{i \in [n]}$, an extremeness preserving 1-Lipschitz bijection $f\colon B_Z \to B_Z$ is an isometry, by…

The sequence of entropy numbers quantifies the degree of compactness of a linear operator acting between quasi-Banach spaces. We determine the asymptotic behavior of entropy numbers in the case of natural embeddings between…

Let $X$ be a Banach space with a separable dual. We prove that $X$ embeds isomorphically into a $\cL_\infty$ space $Z$ whose dual is isomorphic to $\ell_1$. If, moreover, $U$ is a space so that $U$ and $X$ are totally incomparable, then we…

We show that the Banach-Mazur distance between the parallelogram and the affine-regular hexagon is $\frac{3}{2}$ and we conclude that the diameter of the family of centrally-symmetric planar convex bodies is just $\frac{3}{2}$. A proof of…

We consider the problem of whether there is a sequence of homeomorphisms $(F_k)_k$ between the unit spheres of the $k$-dimensional Banach spaces $\ell_\infty^k$ and $\ell_1^k$ which is also equi-uniformly continuous. We prove that this…

Let $E_{1},...,E_{m},F$ be Banach spaces. The index of summability of $\left(E_{1}\times\cdots\times E_{m},F\right) $ is a kind of measure of how far the $m$-linear operators $T:E_{1}\times\cdots\times E_{m}\rightarrow F$ are from being…

In this paper we study ways to establish when a Banach space can be identified as the dual or the double dual of another Banach space. To obtain these results, we relate these spaces with other, concrete Banach spaces - tipically $\ell^1$…

The absolute logarithmic Weil height is well defined on the group of units of the algebraic closure of the rational numbers, modulo roots of unity, and induces a metric topology on this group. We show that the completion of this metric…

The main result is that the cluster value problem in separable Banach spaces, for the Banach algebras $A_u$ and $H^{\infty}$, can be reduced to the cluster value problem in those spaces which are $\ell_1$ sums of a sequence of finite…

We introduce two Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as moduli which measure, for a given Banach space, what is the best possible Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as theorem in this space. We show that there is a common upper bound for these moduli for all Banach…

We construct a Banach space satisfying that the nearest point map (also called proximity mapping or metric projection) onto any compact and convex subset is continuous but not uniformly continuous. The space we construct is locally…

Let $\Gamma$ be an infinite set equipped with the discrete topology. We prove that the space $\ell_{\infty}(\Gamma),$ of all complex-valued bounded functions on $\Gamma$, satisfies the Mazur-Ulam property, that is, every surjective isometry…

In this paper, we study a more general version of multidimensional Bohr radii for the holomorphic functions defined on unit ball of $\ell^n_q\,\,(1\leq q\leq \infty)$ spaces with values in arbitrary complex Banach spaces. More precisely, we…

We show that if there exists a Lipschitz homeomorphism $T$ between the nets in the Banach spaces $C(X)$ and $C(Y)$ of continuous real valued functions on compact spaces $X$ and $Y$, then the spaces $X$ and $Y$ are homeomorphic provided…
