The classical theorem of Bishop-Phelps asserts that, for a Banach space X, the norm-achieving functionals in X* are dense in X*. Bela Bollobas's extension of the theorem gives a quantitative description of just how dense the norm-achieving…

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…

We discuss no-dimensional (approximate) versions of Carath\'eodory's and Helly's theorems. Our goal is to draw attention to open problems and potential applications related to these results. We survey recent progress and pose several…

A graph is Helly if every family of pairwise intersecting balls has a nonempty common intersection. Motivated by previous work on dually chordal graphs and graphs of bounded distance VC-dimension we prove several new results on the…

A Banach space $X$ has \textit{property $(K)$}, whenever every weak* null sequence in the dual space admits a convex block subsequence $(f_{n})_{n=1}^\infty$ so that $\langle f_{n},x_{n}\rangle\to 0$ as $n\to \infty$ for every weakly null…

We investigate the following property for Banach spaces. A Banach space $X$ satisfies the Uniform Approximation on Large Subspaces (UALS) if there exists $C>0$ with the following property: for any $A\in\mathcal{L}(X)$ and convex compact…

We study the 'no-dimension' analogue of Carath{\'e}odory's theorem in Banach spaces. We prove such a result together with its colorful version for uniformly smooth Banach spaces. It follows that uniform smoothness leads to a greedy…

A Banach space (or its norm) is said to have the diameter $2$ property (D$2$P in short) if every nonempty relatively weakly open subset of its closed unit ball has diameter $2$. We construct an equivalent norm on $L_1[0,1]$ which is weakly…

Let $X$ be a completely regular space. For a non-vanishing self-adjoint Banach subalgebra $H$ of $C_B(X)$ which has local units we construct the spectrum $\mathfrak{sp}(H)$ of $H$ as an open subspace of the Stone-Cech compactification of…

We show that for a $\sigma $-ideal $\ci$ with a Steinhaus property defined on Banach space, if two non-homeomorphic Banach with the same cardinality of the Hamel basis then there is a $\ci$ nonmeasurable subset as image by any isomorphism…

We exhibit a new approach to the proofs of the existence of a large family of almost isometric ideals in nonseparable Banach spaces and existence of a large family of almost isometric local retracts in metric spaces. Our approach also…

We prove a no-dimensional version of Carath\'edory's theorem: given an $n$-element set $P\subset \Re^d$, a point $a \in \conv P$, and an integer $r\le d$, $r \le n$, there is a subset $Q\subset P$ of $r$ elements such that the distance…

A Banach space has the ball huskable property ($BHP$) if the closed unit ball has weakly open sets of arbitrarily small diameter. We can analogously define $w^*$-$BHP$ in the dual space. In this short note, we study these properties in the…

We study combinatorial properties of convex sets over arbitrary valued fields. We demonstrate analogs of some classical results for convex sets over the reals (e.g. the fractional Helly theorem and B\'ar\'any's theorem on points in many…

In the main result of the paper we extend Rosenthal's characterization of Banach spaces with the Schur property by showing that for a quasi-complete locally convex space $E$ whose separable bounded sets are metrizable the following…

A basic measure of the combinatorial complexity of a convexity space is its Radon number. In this paper we show a fractional Helly theorem for convexity spaces with a bounded Radon number, answering a question of Kalai. As a consequence we…

In $\mathbb{R}^d$, a closed, convex set has zero Lebesgue measure if and only its interior is empty. More generally, in separable, reflexive Banach spaces, closed and convex sets are Haar null if and only if their interior is empty. We…

We consider sets and maps defined over an o-minimal structure over the reals, such as real semi-algebraic or subanalytic sets. A {\em monotone map} is a multi-dimensional generalization of a usual univariate monotone function, while the…

We report on some recent progress regarding combinatorial properties in convexity spaces with a bounded Radon number. In particular, we discuss the relationship between the Radon number, the colorful and fractional Helly properties, weak…

We prove that for certain subsets $M \subseteq \mathbb{R}^N$, $N \geqslant 1$, the Lipschitz-free space $\mathcal{F}(M)$ has the metric approximation property (MAP), with respect to any norm on $\mathbb{R}^N$. In particular,…
