We construct a quasi-Banach space $X$ which contains no basic sequence.
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…
For a large class of Banach spaces, a general construction of subspaces without local unconditional structure is presented. As an application it is shown that every Banach space of finite cotype contains either $l_2$ or a subspace without…
Let $X$ be a Banach space with an unconditional finite-dimensional Schauder decomposition $(E_n)$. We consider the general problem of characterizing conditions under which one can construct an unconditional basis for $X$ by forming an…
We prove a general result on complemented unconditional basic sequences in Banach lattices and apply it to give some new examples of spaces with unique unconditional basis. We show that Tsirelson space and certain Nakano spaces have the…
We study random unconditional convergence for a basis in a Banach space. The connections between this notion and classical unconditionality are explored. In particular, we analyze duality relations, reflexivity, uniqueness of these bases…
If a Banach space has an unconditional basis it either contains a continuum of non isomorphic subspaces or is isomorphic to its square and hyperplanes and satisfies other regularity properties. An HI Banach space contains a continuum of non…
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…
We prove that there exist Banach spaces not containing $\ell_1$, failing the point of continuity property and satisfying that every semi-normalized basic sequence has a boundedly complete basic subsequence. This answers in the negative the…
We construct a Banach space $\mathcal X_\varepsilon$ with an uncountable $\varepsilon$-biorthogonal system but no uncountable $\tau$-biorthogonal system for $\tau<\varepsilon$. In particular the space have no uncountable biorthogonal…
We construct an indecomposable reflexive Banach space $X_{ius}$ such that every infinite dimensional closed subspace contains an unconditional basic sequence. We also show that every operator $T\in \mathcal{B}(X_{ius})$ is of the form…
We show that the classification problem for genus n Banach spaces can be reduced to the unconditionally primary case and that the critical case there is n=2. It is further shown that a genus n Banach space is unconditionally primary if and…
We construct a reflexive Banach space $X$ with a subspace isometric to $X$, which is not complemented in $X$.
This article was initially motivated by our goal to show that the Banach space $\mathbb{G}$ constructed by Gowers in [W. T. Gowers, A solution to Banach's hyperplane problem, Bull. London Math. Soc. 26 (1994), no. 6, 523-530] to settle…
We furnish a simple way of constructing an unbounded closed linear operator in a complex Banach space, whose spectrum is an arbitrary nonempty closed, in particular compact, subset of the complex plane.
In this note, we study the geometry of the unit ball of the Banach space generated by the adequate family of all subsets of branches of the infinite binary tree, and answer several open questions related to slicely countably determined…
In this paper, we study the descriptive complexity of some inevitable classes of Banach spaces. Precisely, as shown in [Go], every Banach space either contains a hereditarily indecomposable subspace or an unconditional basis, and, as shown…
We review the current state of the homogeneous Banach space problem. We then formulate several questions which arise naturally from this problem, some of which seem to be fundamental but new. We give many examples defining the bounds on the…
A Banach space contains either a minimal subspace or a continuum of incomparable subspaces. General structure results for analytic equivalence relations are applied in the context of Banach spaces to show that if $E_0$ does not reduce to…
A reflexive Banach space with an unconditional basis admits an equivalent $1$-unconditional $2R$ norm and embeds into a reflexive space with a $1$-symmetric $2R$ norm. Partial results on $1$-symmetric $2R$ renormings of spaces with a…
