We construct a hereditarily indecomposable Banach space with dual isomorphic to $\ell_1$. Every bounded linear operator on this space has the form $\lambda I+K$ with $\lambda$ a scalar and $K$ compact.

This paper is concerned with the isomorphic structure of the Banach space $\ell_\infty/c_0$ and how it depends on combinatorial tools whose existence is consistent but not provable from the usual axioms of ZFC. Our main global result is…

We consider the question whether there exists a Banach space $X$ of density continuum such that every Banach space of density not bigger than continuum isomorphically embeds into $X$ (called a universal Banach space of density $\cc$). It is…

We prove that Banach spaces $\ell_1\oplus_2\mathbb{R}$ and $X\oplus_\infty Y$, with strictly convex $X$ and $Y$, have plastic unit balls (we call a metric space plastic if every non-expansive bijection from this space onto itself is an…

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 show that finite dimensional Banach spaces fail to be uniformly non locally almost square. Moreover, we construct an equivalent almost square bidual norm on $\ell_\infty.$ As a consequence we get that every dual Banach space containing…

We investigate the following property for Banach spaces. A Banach space $X$ satisfies the Uniform Approximation on Large Subspaces (UALS) if there exists $C>0$ with the following property: for any $A\in\mathcal{L}(X)$ and convex compact…

A reflexive Banach space $X$ with a basis $(e_i)$ is constructed having the property that every monotone basis is block finitely representable in each block basis of $X$.

We present applications of $C_p$-theory, the branch of general topology concerned with spaces of real-valued continuous functions, to model theory, mostly in the context of continuous logics. We include $C_p$-theoretic results and proofs in…

We prove that Banach spaces with a $1$-projectional skeleton form a $\mathcal{P}$-class and deduce that any such space admits a strong Markushevich basis. We provide several equivalent characterizations of spaces with a projectional…

For $1<p\leqslant \infty$, we study the complexity and the existence of universal spaces for two classes of separable Banach spaces, denoted $\textsf{A}_p$ and $\textsf{N}_p$, and related to asymptotic smoothness in Banach spaces. We show…

This thesis addresses Pour-El and Richards' fourth question from their book "Computability in analysis and physics", concerning the relation between higher order recursion theory and computability in analysis. Among other things it is shown…

Several Koml\'os like properties in Banach lattices are investigated. We prove that $C(K)$ fails the $oo$-pre-Koml\'os property, assuming that the compact Hausdorff space $K$ has a nonempty separable open subset $U$ without isolated points…

We present condition on higher order asymptotic behaviour of basic sequences in a Banach space ensuring the existence of bounded non-compact strictly singular operator on a subspace. We apply it in asymptotic $\ell_p$ spaces, $1\leq…

For any non-trivial convex and bounded subset $C$ of a Banach space, we show that outside of a $\sigma$-porous subset of the space of non-expansive mappings $C\to C$, all mappings have the maximal Lipschitz constant one witnessed locally at…

In 2022, Hatori gave a sufficient condition for complex Banach spaces to have the complex Mazur--Ulam property. In this paper, we introduce a class of complex Banach spaces $B$ that do not satisfy the condition but enjoy the property that…

In \cite[\S1.3]{Br2}, some unitary representations of ${\rm GL}_2(\mathbf{Q}_p)$ on $p$-adic Banach spaces are associated to 2-dimensional irreducible crystalline representations of ${\rm Gal}(\bar{\mathbf{Q}}_p)/\mathbf{Q}_p)$. Some…

Let $V\subseteq W$ be two operator spaces. Arveson-Wittstock-Hahn-Banach theorem asserts that every completely contractive map $\varphi:V\to \mathcal{B}(H)$ has a completely contractive extension $\tilde{\varphi}:W\to \mathcal{B}(H)$, where…

A nonempty closed convex bounded subset $C$ of a Banach space is said to have the weak approximate fixed point property if for every continuous map $f:C\to C$ there is a sequence $\{x_n\}$ in $C$ such that $x_n-f(x_n)$ converge weakly to 0.…

Suppose $\Pi_1(E, F)$ is the space of all absolutely 1-summing operators between two Banach spaces $E$ and $F$. We show that if $F$ has a copy of $c_0$, then $\Pi_1(E, F)$ will have a copy of $c_0$, and under some conditions if $E$ has a…
