We show that if $X$ is an infinite-dimensional separable Banach space (or more generally a Banach space with an infinite-dimensional separable quotient) then there is a continuous mapping $f\colon X\to X$ such that the autonomous…
We study some questions concerning the structure of the set of spreading models of a separable infinite-dimensional Banach space $X$. In particular we give an example of a reflexive $X$ so that all spreading models of $X$ contain $\ell_1$…
Let $X$ be a normal complex projective variety, $T\subseteq X$ a subvariety, $a\colon X\rightarrow A$ a morphism to an abelian variety such that $\rm{Pic}^0(A)$ injects into $\rm{Pic}^0(T)$ and let $L$ be a line bundle on $X$. Denote by…
We present a completely new structure theoretic approach to the dilation theory of linear operators. Our main result is the following theorem: if $X$ is a super-reflexive Banach space and $T$ is contained in the weakly closed convex hull of…
Let $A$ and $B$ be unital semisimple commutative Banach algebras and $T$ a map from the invertible group $A^{-1}$ onto $B^{-1}$. Linearity and multiplicativity of the map are not assumed. We consider the hypotheses on $T$: (1) $\sigma…
Let $T$ be a bounded linear operator on a Banach space $X$. We give new necessary and sufficient conditions for $T$ to be Drazin or Koliha-Drazin invertible. All those conditions have the following form: $T$ possesses certain decomposition…
Let $A$ be an algebra over a field $F$ with {\rm char}$(F)\ne 2$. If $A$ is generated as an algebra by $[[A,A],[A,A]]$, then for every skew-symmetric bilinear map $\Phi:A\times A\to X$, where $X$ is an arbitrary vector space over $F$, the…
We consider $L$-$\omega$-nonexpansive maps $T\colon K\to K$ on a convex subset $K$ of a Banach space $X$, i.e., maps in which $\omega_T(\delta)\leq L\delta +\omega(\delta)$ with $L\in [0,1]$, $\omega$ being a modulus of continuity and…
Let $A$ be a complex Banach algebra. If the spectrum of an invertible element $a\in A$ does not separate the plane, then $a$ admits a logarithm. We present two elementary proofs of this classical result which are independent of the…
Let $X$ be an infinite dimensional uniformly smooth Banach space. We prove that $X$ contains an infinite equilateral set. That is, there exists a constant $\lambda>0$ and an infinite sequence $(x_i)_{i=1}^\infty\subset X$ such that…
Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex finite-dimensional or infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space, $\mathcal{B(H)}$ and $\mathcal{T(H)}$ be the Banach spaces of all bounded linear operators and of all trace class operators on $\mathcal{H},$…
Let $X$ be a partially ordered set with the property that each family of order intervals of the form $[a,b],[a,\rightarrow )$ with the finite intersection property has a nonempty intersection. We show that every directed subset of $X$ has a…
Let $A$ be a real commutative Banach algebra with unity. Let $a_0\in A\setminus\{0\}$. Let $\mathbb Z a_0:=\{na_0\}_{n\in \mathbb Z}$. Then, $\mathbb Z a_0$ is a discrete subgroup of $A$. For any $n\in \mathbb Z$, the Frechet derivative of…

The aim of this paper is to prove a counterpart of the Banach fixed point principle for mappings $f: \ell_\infty(X) \to X$, where $X$ is a metric space and $\ell_\infty(X)$ is the space of all bounded sequences of elements from~$X$. Our…
Let $X$ be a real normed vector space with a cone $K\subseteq X$ satisfying either (i) $K$ is closed with non-empty interior or (ii) $K$ has non-zero extremals or (iii) $K$ is closed and $X$ is a Banach space. In this short note, we provide…
We provide a characterization of the Banach spaces $X$ with a Schauder basis $(e_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ which have the property that the dual space $X^*$ is naturally isomorphic to the space $\mathcal{L}_{diag}(X)$ of diagonal operators with…

In this paper, we introduce and study a new generalized inverse, called ag-Drazin inverses in a Banach algebra $\mathcal{A}$ with unit $1$. An element $a\in\mathcal{A}$ is ag-Drazin invertible if there exists $x\in\mathcal{A}$ such that…
In this paper, we establish the Pexiderized stability of coboundaries and cocycles and use them to investigate the Hyers--Ulam stability of some functional equations. We prove that for each Banach algebra $A$, Banach $A$-bimodule $X$ and…
