It is shown that a separable Banach space $X$ can be given an equivalent norm $|\!|\!|\cdot |\!|\!|$ with the following properties:\quad If $(x_n)\subseteq X$ is relatively weakly compact and $\lim_{m\to\infty} \lim_{n\to\infty}\break…

We continue the study initiated in [F. Albiac and P. Wojtaszczyk, Characterization of $1$-greedy bases, J. Approx. Theory 138 (2006), no. 1, 65-86] of properties related to greedy bases in the case when the constants involved are sharp,…

We introduce the super-shadowing property in linear dynamics, where pseudotrajectories are approximated by sequences of the form $(\lambda_nT^nx)$, with $(\lambda_n)_n$ being complex scalars. For compact operators on Banach spaces, we…

We say that a topological space $X$ is selectively highly divergent (SHD) if for every sequence of non-empty open sets $\{U_n\mid n\in\omega \}$ of $X$, we can find $x_n\in U_n$ such that the sequence $(x_n)$ has no convergent subsequences.…

A Banach space is said to have the ball-covering property (abbreviated BCP) if its unit sphere can be covered by countably many closed, or equivalently, open balls off the origin. Let $K$ be a locally compact Hausdorff space and $X$ be a…

We generalize the notion of summable Szlenk index from a Banach space to an arbitrary weak$^*$-compact set. We prove that a weak$^*$-compact set has summable Szlenk index if and only if its weak$^*$-closed, absolutely convex hull does. As a…

We give new and simple proofs of some classical properties of hereditarily indecomposable Banach spaces, including the result by W. T. Gowers and B. Maurey that a hereditarily indecomposable Banach space cannot be isomorphic to a proper…

The aim of this note is to present two results that make the task of finding equivalent polyhedral norms on certain Banach spaces, having either a Schauder basis or an uncountable unconditional basis, easier and more transparent. The…

Let $\mathcal D$ be a Schauder decomposition on some Banach space $X$. We prove that if $\mathcal D$ is not $R$-Schauder, then there exists a Ritt operator $T\in B(X)$ which is a multiplier with respect to $\mathcal D$, such that the set…

Let $X$ be a complex Banach space. The connection between algebra homomorphisms defined on subalgebras of the Banach algebra $\ell^{1}(\mathbb{N}_0)$ and the algebraic structure of Ces\`{a}ro sums of a linear operator $T\in \mathcal{B}(X)$…

Denote by $[0,\omega_1)$ the locally compact Hausdorff space consisting of all countable ordinals, equipped with the order topology, and let $C_0[0,\omega_1)$ be the Banach space of scalar-valued, continuous functions which are defined on…

Let X be a real Banach space. We prove that the existence of an injective, positive, symmetric and not strictly singular operator from X into its dual implies that either X admits an equivalent Hilbertian norm or it contains a nontrivially…

Let l be a Banach sequence space with a monotone norm in which the canonical system (e_{n}) is an unconditional basis. We show that if there exists a continuous linear unbounded operator between l-K\"{o}the spaces, then there exists a…

Let $H$ be an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. We prove that every unconditional Schauder frame for $H$ contains a subsequence that can be normalized to form a frame for $H$. As a consequence, every semi-normalized unconditional Schauder…

We investigate the following problem posed by Cabello Sanch\'ez, Castillo, Kalton, and Yost: Let $K$ be a nonmetrizable compact space. Does there exist a nontrivial twisted sum of $c_0$ and $C(K)$, i.e., does there exist a Banach space $X$…

We present a method of building operators on a Banach space $X$ that generate distinct operator ideals in the algebra $\mathscr{B}(X)$ of bounded linear operators on $X$. We show that there are exactly $2^\mathfrak{c}$ distinct small closed…

In this paper, we introduce the concept of cb-frames for operator spaces. We show that there is a concrete cb-frame for the reduced free group C*-algebra $C_r^*(F_2)$, which is derived from the infinite convex decomposition of the…

Let $X$ be a Borel metric measure space such that each closed ball is of positive and finite measure. In this paper, we give a sufficient and necessary condition for averaging operators on a Banach function space $E(X)$ on $X$ to be…

We give the first lower bound on the $\scr C(K)$-distortion of the class of separable Banach spaces, for $K$ a countable compact in the family $\{ [0,\omega],[0,\omega\cdot2],\cdots, [0,\omega^2], \cdots, [0,\omega^k\cdot…
