The computation of the numerical index of a Banach space is an intriguing problem, even in case of two-dimensional real polyhedral Banach spaces. In this article we present a general method to estimate the numerical index of any…
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…
We consider the problem of isometric embedding of metric spaces to the Banach spaces; and introduce and study the remarkable class of so-called linearly rigid metric spaces: these are the spaces that admit a unique, up to isometry, linearly…
We obtain an equivalent implicit characterization of $L^p$ Banach spaces that is amenable to a logical treatment. Using that, we obtain an axiomatization for such spaces into a higher-order logical system, the kind of which is used in proof…
The aim of this paper is to present two tools, Theorems 4 and 7, that make the task of finding equivalent polyhedral norms on certain Banach spaces easier and more transparent. The hypotheses of both tools are based on countable…
We discuss the geometry of Banach spaces whose norm is octahedral or, more generally, locally or weakly octahedral. Our main results characterize these spaces in terms of covering of the unit ball.
This paper is an account (without proofs) of the results of our work "Metric and Generalized Projection Operators in Banach Spaces: Properties and Applications", funct-an/9311001. The Section 9 establishing a connection between variational…
These are notes from a lecture course on symmetric spaces by the second author given at the University of Pittsburgh in the fall of 2010.
Given a category of objects, it is both useful and important to know if all the objects in the category may be realised as sub-objects -- via morphisms in the given category -- of a single object in that category enjoying some nice…
Motivated by a seminal paper of professor M. Z. Nashed published in 1987 on classification of ill-posed linear operator equations and distinguishing two types of ill-posedness in Banach and Hilbert spaces, we present, illustrate and justify…
This is the first of two closely related papers on transversality. Here we introduce the notion of tangential transversality of two closed subsets of a Banach space. It is an intermediate property between transversality and…
These informal notes were prepared in connection with a lecture at a high school mathematics tournament, and provide an overview of some examples of metric spaces and a few of their basic properties.
The main purpose of the paper is to prove the following results: Let $A$ be a locally finite metric space whose finite subsets admit uniformly bilipschitz embeddings into a Banach space $X$. Then $A$ admits a bilipschitz embedding into $X$.…
We study the structure of the space of coarse Lipschitz maps between Banach spaces. In particular we introduce the notion of norm attaining coarse Lipschitz maps. We extend to the case of norm attaining coarse Lipschitz equivalences, a…
In this survey, we present several results related to characterizing the surjective isometries on Banach sequence spaces. Our survey includes full proofs of these characterizations for the classical spaces as well as more recent results for…
This is a 30 page set of lecture notes, in Plain TeX, which were prepared for and presented as a series of lectures (10 1/2 hours over two weeks) at the 2nd Summer School on Banach Spaces, Related Areas and Applications in Prague and…
The theory of Banach spaces of Dirichlet series has drawn an increasing attention in the recent 25 years. One of the main interest of this new theory is that of defining analogues of the classical spaces of analytic functions on the unit…
It is proved that the linearity of metric projections on subspaces and the convexity of the polars of the convex cones in the uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space are equivalent, and both of them is equivalent with the fact…
We introduce the operators "modified limit" and "accumulation" on a Banach space, and we use this to define what we mean by being internally computable over the space. We prove that any externally computable function from a computable…
We describe a $\C$-linear additive *-autonomous category of Banach spaces. Please note that a correction has been appended to the original version 1 which is maintained here for reference. Also, a proposed example of a *-autonomous category…
