We study the Daugavet property in the space of Lipschitz functions $\operatorname{Lip}_0(M)$ for a complete metric space $M$. Namely we show that $\operatorname{Lip}_0(M)$ has the Daugavet property if and only if $M$ is a length space. This…

The Banach space $\mathcal{P}({}^2X)$ of $2$-homogeneous polynomials on the Banach space $X$ can be naturally embedded in the Banach space ${{\rm Lip}_0}(B_X)$ of real-valued Lipschitz functions on $B_X$ that vanish at $0$. We investigate…

We study the numerical radius of Lipschitz operators on Banach spaces via the Lipschitz numerical index, which is an analogue of the numerical index in Banach space theory. We give a characterization of the numerical radius and obtain a…

We construct a complete metric space $M$ of cardinality continuum such that every non-singleton closed separable subset of $M$ fails to be a Lipschitz retract of $M$. This provides a metric analogue to the various classical and recent…

We show that there are $2^{2^{\aleph_0}}$ different closed ideals in the Banach algebra $L(L_p(0,1))$, $1<p\not= 2<\infty$. This solves a problem in A. Pietsch's 1978 book "Operator Ideals". The proof is quite different from other methods…

The goal of this note is to prove that every real-valued Lipschitz function on a Banach space can be pointwise approximated on a given $\sigma$-compact set by smooth cylindrical functions whose asymptotic Lipschitz constants are controlled.…

We revisit some ideas of K.-M.~Perfekt who has provided an elegant framework to detect the biduality between function or sequence spaces defined in terms of some $o$- resp.\ $O$-condition. We present new proofs under somewhat weaker…

Let $\mathscr{H}^\infty$ be the set of all Dirichlet series $f=\sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty \frac{a_n}{n^s}$ (where $a_n\in \mathbb{C}$ for each $n$) that converge at each $s\in {\mathbb{C}}_+$, such that $\|f\|_{\infty}:=\sup_{s\in…

Given any $d$-dimensional Lipschitz Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ with heat kernel $\mathsf{p}$, we establish uniform upper bounds on $\mathsf{p}$ which can always be decoupled in space and time. More precisely, we prove the existence of a…

Let X be a compact Hausdorff space and M a metric space. E_0(X,M) is the set of f in C(X,M) such that there is a dense set of points x in X with f constant on some neighborhood of x. We describe some general classes of X for which E_0(X,M)…

We analyse and characterise the notion of lattice Lipschitz operator (a class of superposition operators, diagonal Lipschitz maps) when defined between Banach function spaces. After showing some general results, we restrict our attention to…

We show that on separable Banach spaces admitting a separating polynomial, any uniformly continuous, bounded, real-valued function can be uniformly approximated by Lipschitz, analytic maps on bounded sets.

Let $M$ be a subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$. If $M$ is not porous, in particular if it has positive $n$-dimensional Lebesgue measure, we prove that the Lipschitz spaces $\mathrm{Lip}_0(M)$ and $\mathrm{Lip}_0(\mathbb{R}^n)$ are linearly…

We find necessary and sufficient conditions for a Lipschitz map $f:\mathbb{R}E\to X$, into a metric space to have the image with the $k$-dimensional Hausdorff measure equal zero, $H^k(f(E))=0$. An interesting feature of our approach is that…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be Banach spaces such that the ideal of operators which factor through $Y$ has codimension one in the Banach algebra $\mathscr{B}(X)$ of all bounded operators on $X$, and suppose that $Y$ contains a complemented subspace…

We call a closed subset M of a Banach space X a free basis of X if it contains the null vector and every Lipschitz map from M to a Banach space Y, which preserves the null vectors can be uniquely extended to a bounded linear map from X to…

The classical Grauert and Ramspott theorems constitute the foundation of the Oka principle on Stein spaces. In this paper we establish analogous results on the maximal ideal space $M(H^\infty)$ of the Banach algebra $H^\infty$ of bounded…

We prove a version of the Ando-Choi-Effros lifting theorem respecting subspaces, which in turn relies on Oja's principle of local reflexivity respecting subspaces. To achieve this, we first develop a theory of pairs of $M$-ideals. As a…

Let $\mathbb D^n\subset\mathbb C^n$ be the open unit polydisk, $K\subset\mathbb D^n$ be an $n$-ary Cartesian product of planar sets, and $\hat U\subset \mathfrak M^n$ be an open neighbourhood of the closure $\bar K$ of $K$ in $\mathfrak…

For a metric compact space $L$ and a Banach space $E$, we provide a characterization of the complementability of the Banach space $\mathcal{C}(L)$ of continuous functions on $L$ inside $E$ in terms of the existence of a certain tree in the…
