Hereditarily indecomposable Banach spaces may have density at most continuum (Plichko-Yost, Argyros-Tolias). In this paper we show that this cannot be proved for indecomposable Banach spaces. We provide the first example of an…

We construct two counterexamples that resolve long-standing open problems on greedy approximation theory with respect to bases, posed in [F. Albiac et al., Dissertationes Math. 560 (2021)] and restated in [F. Albiac, J. L. Ansorena, V.…

The following dichotomy is established for a normalized weakly null sequence in a Banach space: Either every subsequence admits a convex block subsequence equivalent to the unit vector basis of c, the Banach space of null sequences under…

We show that for each of the following Banach spaces~$X$, the quotient algebra $\mathscr{B}(X)/\mathscr{I}$ has a unique algebra norm for every closed ideal $\mathscr{I}$ of $\mathscr{B}(X)\colon$ - $X=…

We show that there is an operator space notion of Lipschitz embeddability between operator spaces which is strictly weaker than its linear counterpart but which is still strong enough to impose linear restrictions on operator space…

In this note we examine the connection between the stable rank one and Dedekind-finite property of the algebra of operators on a Banach space $X$. We show that for the indecomposable but not hereditarily indecomposable Banach space…

We construct a family $(\mathcal{X}_\al)_{\al\le \omega_1}$ of reflexive Banach spaces with long transfinite bases but with no unconditional basic sequences. In our spaces $\mathcal{X}_\al$ every bounded operator $T$ is split into its…

In this paper we investigate a Gaussian average property of Banach spaces. This property is weaker than the Gordon Lewis property but closely related to this and other unconditional structures. It is also shown that this property implies…

We construct a continuum of mutually non-isomorphic separable Banach spaces which are complemented in each other. Consequently, the Schroeder-Bernstein Index of any of these spaces is $2^{\aleph_0}$. Our construction is based on a Banach…

We prove a local version of Gowers' Ramsey-type theorem [Ann. Math. 156 (2002)], as well as local versions both of the Banach space first dichotomy (the "unconditional/HI" dichotomy) of Gowers [Ann. Math. 156 (2002)] and of the third…

In this paper, we begin by constructing global linear maps on (n-2)-dimensional subspaces, derived from the local continuity of linear transformations among central sections of a convex body. Using these linear maps, we subsequently…

We introduce the notions of tauberian, cotauberian and weakly compact pair of closed subspaces of a Banach space. The theory produced by these notions is richer than that of the corresponding operators since an operator can be regarded as a…

We construct a continuous linear operator acting on the space of smooth functions on the real line without non-trivial invariant subspaces. This is a first example of such an operator acting on a Fr\'echet space without a continuous norm.…

Our aim is to investigate the properties of existence and uniqueness of greedy bases in Banach spaces. We show the non-existence of greedy basis in some Nakano spaces and Orlicz sequence spaces and produce the first-known examples of…

Given a Banach space~$X$ with an unconditional basis, we consider the following question: does the identity on~$X$ factor through every operator on~$X$ with large diagonal relative to the unconditional basis? We show that on Gowers'…

For $1\le p <\infty$, we present a reflexive Banach space $\mathfrak{X}^{(p)}_{\text{awi}}$, with an unconditional basis, that admits $\ell_p$ as a unique asymptotic model and does not contain any Asymptotic $\ell_p$ subspaces. D. Freeman,…

We prove several abstract results giving general conditions under which subspaces of linear or multilinear operators on Banach spaces or Banach lattices are closed. Each of these abstract results is followed by concrete applications,…

We present a construction that enables one to find Banach spaces $X$ whose sets $NA(X)$ of norm attaining functionals do not contain two-dimensional subspaces and such that, consequently, $X$ does not contain proximinal subspaces of finite…

We use the Gowers block Ramsey theorem to characterize Banach spaces containing isomorphs of $\ell_p$ (for some $1 \leq p < \infty$) or $c_0$.
