We study the class of compact convex subsets of a topological vector space which admits a strictly convex and lower semicontinuous function. We prove that such a compact set is embeddable in a strictly convex dual Banach space endowed with…

In [8] probabilistic methods, in particular a variant of the Weak Law of Large Numbers related to the Bernoulli distribution, have been used to show that for every infinite compact spaces K and L there exists a sequence $(\mu_n)$ of…

For any Tychonoff space $X$ let $D(X)$ be either the set $C(X)$ of all continuous functions on $X$ or the set $C^*(X)$ of all bounded continuous functions on $X$. When $D(X)$ is endowed with the point convergence topology, we write…

Similar to the theory of finite Markov chains it is shown that in a Banach space $X$ ordered by a closed cone $K$ with nonempty interior int($K$) a power bounded positive operator $A$ with compact power such that its trajectories for…

We consider a continuous version of the classical notion of Banach limits, namely, positive linear functionals on $L^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}_+)$ invariant under translations $f(x) \mapsto f(x+s)$ of $L^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}_+)$ for every $s \ge…

Fixed point theory studies conditions under which nonexpansive maps on Banach spaces have fixed points. This paper examines the open question of whether every reflexive Banach space has the fixed point property. After surveying classical…

We prove a commutative Gelfand--Naimark type theorem, by showing that the set $C_s(X)$ of continuous bounded (real or complex valued) functions with separable support on a locally separable metrizable space $X$ (provided with the supremum…

In the recent paper \cite{Aza:19} D Azagra studies the global shape of continuous convex functions defined on a Banach space $X$. More precisely, when $X$ is separable, it is shown that for every continuous convex function…

On each nonreflexive Banach space X there exists a positive continuous convex function f such that 1/f is not a d.c. function (i.e., a difference of two continuous convex functions). This result together with known ones implies that X is…

It is shown that a Banach space with locally uniformly convex dual admits an equivalent norm which is itself locally uniformly convex. It follows that on any such space all continuous real-valued functions may be uniformly approximated by…

We show that sweeping processes with possibly non-convex prox-regular constraints generate a strongly continuous input-output mapping in the space of absolutely continuous functions. Under additional smoothness assumptions on the constraint…

We define a locally convex space $E$ to have the $Josefson$-$Nissenzweig$ $property$ (JNP) if the identity map $(E',\sigma(E',E))\to ( E',\beta^\ast(E',E))$ is not sequentially continuous. By the classical Josefson-Nissenzweig theorem,…

The main result of this paper is that every non-reflexive subspace $Y$ of $L_1[0,1]$ fails the fixed point property for closed, bounded, convex subsets $C$ of $Y$ and nonexpansive (or contractive) mappings on $C$. Combined with a theorem of…

The following theorem is proved: Let M be a locally Lipschitz hypersurface in C^n with one-sided extension property at each point (e.g., without analytic discs). Let S be a closed subset of M and f : M \ S ---> C^m \ E is a CR-mapping of…

This paper presents new approaches to the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings in L^1 spaces. While it is well-known that L^1 fails the fixed point property in general, we provide a complete and self-contained proof that…

Let $C$ be a closed cone with nonempty interior $C^\circ$ in a Banach space. Let $f:C^\circ \rightarrow C^\circ$ be an order-preserving subhomogeneous function with a fixed point in $C^\circ$. We introduce a condition which guarantees that…

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…

This article delves into Korovkin-type theorems in Banach function spaces, as established by Yusuf Zeren et al. (2022). We prove that in this theorem, the positivity of the operators is not a necessary requirement and provide example of a…

We prove that if a mapping F:X to Y, where X and Y are Banach spaces, is metrically regular at x for y and its inverse F^{-1} is convex and closed valued locally around (x,y), then for any function G:X to Y with lip G(x)regF(x|y)) < 1, the…

We present some extensions of classical results that involve elements of the dual of Banach spaces, such as Bishop-Phelp's theorem and James' compactness theorem, but restricting to sets of functionals determined by geometrical properties.…
