Let $X$ be an infinite dimensional uniformly smooth Banach space. We prove that $X$ contains an infinite equilateral set. That is, there exists a constant $\lambda>0$ and an infinite sequence $(x_i)_{i=1}^\infty\subset X$ such that…

We show that there exists a separable reflexive Banach space into which every separable uniformly convex Banach space isomorphically embeds. This solves a problem of J. Bourgain. We also give intrinsic characterizations of separable…

We study the problem of the existence of unconditional basic sequences in Banach spaces of high density. We show, in particular, the relative consistency with GCH of the statement that every Banach space of density $\aleph_\omega$ contains…

We introduce slicely countably determined points (SCD points) of a bounded and convex subset of a Banach space which extends the notions of denting points, strongly regular points and much more. We completely characterize SCD points in the…

We show that the classes of separable reflexive Banach spaces and of spaces with separable dual are strongly bounded. This gives a new proof of a recent result of E. Odell and Th. Schlumprecht, asserting that there exists a separable…

We study existence and partial regularity relative to the weighted Steiner problem in Banach spaces. We show $C^1$ regularity almost everywhere for almost minimizing sets in uniformly rotund Banach spaces whose modulus of uniform convexity…

Given a map $f \colon E \longrightarrow F$ between Banach spaces (or Banach lattices), a set $A$ of $E$-valued bounded sequences, ${\bf x} \in A$ and a vector topology $\tau$ on $F$, we investigate the existence of an infinite dimensional…

In this paper we give some results about the approximation of a Lipschitz function on a Banach space by means of $\Delta$-convex functions. In particular, we prove that the density of $\Delta$-convex functions in the set of Lipschitz…

We single out and study a natural class of Banach spaces -- almost square Banach spaces. In an almost square space we can find, given a finite set $x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_N$ in the unit sphere, a unit vector $y$ such that $\|x_i-y\|$ is almost…

We prove large and moderate deviation results for sequences of compound sums, where the summands are i.i.d. random variables taking values in a separable Banach space. We establish that the results hold by proving that we are dealing with…

For every $\alpha<\omega_1$ we establish the existence of a separable Banach space whose Szlenk index is $\omega^{\alpha\omega+1}$ and which is universal for all separable Banach spaces whose Szlenk-index does not exceed…

We prove that an onto isometry between unit spheres of finite-dimensional polyhedral Banach spaces extends to a linear isometry of the corresponding spaces.

For the multivalued Volterra integral equation defined in a Banach space, the set of solutions is proved to be $R_\delta$, without auxiliary conditions imposed in Theorem 6 [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 403 (2013), 643-666]. It is shown that the…

We study the unknown differences between the size of slices and relatively weakly open subsets of the unit ball in Banach spaces. We show that every Banach space containing isomorphic copies of $c_0$ can be equivalently renormed so that…

A diversity $\delta$ in $M$ is a function defined over every finite set of points of $M$ mapped onto $[0,\infty)$, with the properties that $\delta(X)=0$ if and only if $|X|\leq 1$ and $\delta(X\cup Y)\leq\delta(X\cup Z)+\delta(Z\cup Y)$,…

In this paper we study different aspects of the representation of weak*-compact convex sets of the bidual $X^{**}$ of a separable Banach space $X$ via a nested sequence of closed convex bounded sets of $X$.

We show that a Banach space with numerical index one cannot enjoy good convexity or smoothness properties unless it is one-dimensional. For instance, it has no WLUR points in its unit ball, its norm is not Frechet smooth and its dual norm…

We study an infinite system of ordinary differential equations that models the evolution of coagulating and fragmenting clusters, which we assume to be composed of identical units. Under very mild assumptions on the coefficients we prove…

It is shown that any Banach space X of sufficiently large density contains an (infinite) unconditional sequence and a separable quotient. If a density of X is a weakly compact cardinal, then X contains an unconditional sequence of…

Given a finite covering by closed convex sets of $B_X$, the unit ball of an infinite-dimensional Banach space, we investigate whether there is a set of the covering that contains balls of radius close to $1$ and (a) arbitrarily high finite…
