We study some properties of the randomized series and their applications to the geometric structure of Banach spaces. For $n\ge 2$ and $1<p<\infty$, it is shown that $\ell_\infty^n$ is representable in a Banach space $X$ if and only if it…

We obtain an equivalent implicit characterization of $L^p$ Banach spaces that is amenable to a logical treatment. Using that, we obtain an axiomatization for such spaces into a higher-order logical system, the kind of which is used in proof…

We give an intrinsic characterisation of the separable reflexive Banach spaces that embed into separable reflexive spaces with an unconditional basis all of whose normalised block sequences with the same growth rate are equivalent. This…

We consider L^p-cohomology of reflexive Banach spaces and give a spectral condition implying the vanishing of 1-cohomology with coefficients in uniformly bounded representations on a Hilbert space.

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 make a systematic study of frames for metric spaces. We prove that every separable metric space admits a metric $\mathcal{M}_d$-frame. Through Lipschitz-free Banach spaces we show that there is a correspondence between frames for metric…

We set up a descriptive set-theoretic framework to study Lipschitz-free spaces and use the reduction argument of Bossard to prove several results. We prove two universality results: if a separable Banach space is isomorphically universal…

In this paper structure of infinite dimensional Banach spaces is studied by using an asymptotic approach based on stabilization at infinity of finite dimensional subspaces which appear everywhere far away. This leads to notions of…

Following results of Bourgain and Gorelik we show that the spaces $\ell_p$, $1<p<\infty$, as well as some related spaces have the following uniqueness property: If $X$ is a Banach space uniformly homeomorphic to one of these spaces then it…

A Banach symmetric space in the sense of O. Loos is a smooth Banach manifold $M$ endowed with a multiplication map $\mu\colon M \times M \to M$ such that each left multiplication map $\mu_x := \mu(x,\cdot)$ (with $x \in M$) is an involutive…

We give a brief survey of the results on coarse or uniform embeddings of Banach spaces into $c_0(\Ga)$ and the point character of Banach spaces. In the process we prove several new results in this direction (for example we determine the…

We give a simple argument to show that if {\alpha} is an affine isometric action of a product G x H of topological groups on a reflexive Banach space X with linear part {\pi}, then either {\pi}(H) fixes a unit vector or {\alpha}|G almost…

We show that any separable stable Banach space can be represented as a group of isometries on a separable reflexive Banach space, which extends a result of S. Guerre and M. Levy. As a consequence, we can then represent homeomorphically its…

It is shown that any bounded metric space can be isometrically embedded into the Gromov--Hausdorff metric class GH. This result is a consequence of local geometry description of the class GH in a sufficiently small neighborhood of a generic…

We characterize the metric spaces whose free space has the bounded approximation property through a Lipschitz analogue of the local reflexivity principle. We show that there exist compact metric spaces whose free spaces fail the…

Given a Banach space. We show that its three times dual space can be written as a direct sum. Then being one of the sumands null is a necessary and sufficient condition for the dual space to be reflexive. We end with an application of this…

We show that every non-precompact topological group admits a fixed point-free continuous action by affine isometries on a suitable Banach space. Thus, precompact groups are defined by the fixed point property for affine isometric actions on…

In this paper Hilbert spaces are characterized among Banach spaces in terms of transitivity with respect to nicely behaved subgroups of the isometry group. For example, the following result is typical here: If X is a real Banach space…

We study Banach spaces X with a strongly asymptotic l_p basis (any disjointly supported finite set of vectors far enough out with respect to the basis behaves like l_p) which are minimal (X embeds into every infinite dimensional subspace).…

We show that for any group $G$ that is hyperbolic relative to subgroups that admit a proper affine isometric action on a uniformly convex Banach space, then $G$ acts properly on a uniformly convex Banach space as well.
