We show that the duals of Banach algebras of scalar-valued bounded holomorphic functions on the open unit ball $B_E$ of a Banach space $E$ lack weak$^*$-strongly exposed points. Consequently, we obtain that some Banach algebras of…
In this note, we prove that the Daugavet property implies the polynomial Daugavet property, solving a longstanding open problem in the field. Our approach is based on showing that a geometric characterization of the Daugavet property due to…
In this article, we study the diameter two properties (D2Ps), the diametral diameter two properties (diametral D2Ps), and the Daugavet property in Orlicz-Lorentz spaces equipped with the Luxemburg norm. First, we characterize the…
A norm one element $x$ of a Banach space is a Daugavet-point (respectively,~a $\Delta$-point) if every slice of the unit ball (respectively,~every slice of the unit ball containing $x$) contains an element that is almost at distance 2 from…
Let $M$ be a metric space and $X$ be a Banach space. In this paper we address several questions about the structure of $\mathcal F(M)\widehat{\otimes}_\pi X$ and $\mathop{Lip}(M,X)$. Our results are the following: (1) We prove that if $M$…
Let $G$ be an infinite, compact abelian group and let $\varLambda$ be a subset of its dual group $\varGamma$. We study the question which spaces of the form $C_\varLambda(G)$ or $L^1_\varLambda(G)$ and which quotients of the form…
We introduce the super alternative Daugavet property (super ADP) which lies strictly between the Daugavet property and the Alternative Daugavet property as follows. A Banach space $X$ has the super ADP if for every element $x$ in the unit…
We introduce a new diametral notion for points of the unit sphere of Banach spaces, that naturally complements the notion of Delta-points, but is weaker than the notion of Daugavet points. We prove that this notion can be used to provide a…
It is known that a Banach space contains an isomorphic copy of $c_0$ if, and only if, it can be equivalently renormed to be almost square. We introduce and study transfinite versions of almost square Banach spaces with the purpose to relate…
Let $M$ be a von Neumann algebra and let $M_\star$ be its (unique) predual. We study when for every $\varphi\in M_\star$ there exists $\psi\in M_\star$ solving the equation $\|\varphi \pm \psi\|=\|\varphi\|=\|\psi\|$. This is the case when…

In this article, we study the ccs-Daugavet, ccs-$\Delta$, super-Daugavet, super-$\Delta$, Daugavet, $\Delta$, and $\nabla$ points in the unit balls of vector-valued function spaces $C_0(L, X)$, $A(K, X)$, $L_\infty(\mu, X)$, and $L_1(\mu,…
In this paper, we are interested in studying when an element $z$ in the projective tensor product $X \widehat{\otimes}_\pi Y$ turns out to be a Daugavet point. We prove first that, under some hypothesis, the assumption of $X…
In the first part of this paper, we explore the possibility for a very large cardinal $\kappa$ to carry a $\kappa$-complete ultrafilter without Galvin's property. In this context, we prove the consistency of every ground model…
We consider a general concept of Daugavet property with respect to a norming subspace. This concept covers both the usual Daugavet property and its weak$^*$ analogue. We introduce and study analogues for narrow operators and rich subspaces…
We prove the norm identity $\|\Id+T\| =1+\|T\|$, which is known as the Daugavet equation, for weakly compact operators $T$ on natural function spaces such as function algebras and $L^{1}$-predual spaces, provided a non-discreteness…
A $\Delta$-point $x$ of a Banach space is a norm one element that is arbitrarily close to convex combinations of elements in the unit ball that are almost at distance $2$ from $x$. If, in addition, every point in the unit ball is…
We study Daugavet points and $\Delta$-points in Lipschitz-free Banach spaces. We prove that, if $M$ is a compact metric space, then $\mu\in S_{\mathcal F(M)}$ is a Daugavet point if, and only if, there is no denting point of $B_{\mathcal…
We construct a model of ZFC with a singular cardinal $\kappa$ such that every subset of $\kappa$ in $L(V_{\kappa+1})$ has both the $\kappa$-Perfect Set Property and the $\mathcal{\vec{U}}$-Baire Property. This is a higher analogue of…
We prove, via transfinite recursion, the existence, inside any linearly ordered set of appropriate regular cardinality $\lambda$, of a particular kind of well-ordered subsets characterized by the property of $\lambda$-fullness. Let $H$ be a…
