This paper contains two improvements on a theorem of S. N. Bernstein for Banach spaces. We show that if $X$ is an arbitrary infinite-dimensional Banach space, $\{Y_n\}$ is a sequence of strictly nested subspaces of $ X$ and if $\{d_n\}$ is…
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…
We present a reflexive Banach space with an unconditional basis which is quasi-minimal and tight by range, i.e. of type (4) in Ferenczi-Rosendal list within the framework of Gowers' classification program of Banach spaces. The space is an…
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 shall present examples of Schauder bases in the preduals to the hyperfinite factors of types $\hbox{II}_1$, $\hbox{II}_\infty$, $\hbox{III}_\lambda$, $0 < \lambda \leq 1$. In the semifinite (respectively, purely infinite) setting, these…
We consider the following problem: given a set $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}$ and $p \neq 2$, does there exist a function $g \in L^p(\mathbb{R})$ such that the Gabor system $\{g(x-t) e^{2 \pi isx}\}$, $(t,s) \in \Lambda$,…
We utilize the idea underlying the construct of the classical weighted backward shift Rolewicz's operators to furnish a straightforward approach to a general construct of chaotic unbounded linear operators in a (real or complex) Banach…
The proof that the James space is not locally unconditional appears to be non-constructive, since it makes use of an ultraproduct construction. Using proof mining, we extract a constructive proof and obtain a lower bound on the growth of…
The main result of the paper: Given any $\varepsilon>0$, every locally finite subset of $\ell_2$ admits a $(1+\varepsilon)$-bilipschitz embedding into an arbitrary infinite-dimensional Banach space. The result is based on two results which…
We introduce the notion of a continuous Schauder frame for a Banach space. This is both a generalization of continuous frames and coherent states for Hilbert spaces and a generalization of unconditional Schauder frames for Banach spaces. As…
We give the first example of a nontrivial twisted Hilbert space that satisfies the Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma. This space has no unconditional basis. We also show that such a space gives a partial answer to a question of Mascioni.
We study density estimates of an index set $\mathcal{A}$, under which unconditionality (or even a weaker property of the random unconditional divergence) of the corresponding Rademacher fractional chaos $\{r_{j_1}(t)\cdot…
Following Davie's example of a Banach space failing the approximation property [D], we show how to construct a Banach space E which is asymptotically Hilbertian and fails the approximation property. Moreover, the space E is shown to be a…
It is shown that every normalized weakly null sequence of length $\kappa_{\lambda}$ in a Banach space has a subsequence of length $\lambda$ which is an unconditional basic sequence; here $\kappa_{\lambda}$ is a large cardinal depending on a…
We show that if $x$ is a strongly extreme point of a bounded closed convex subset of a Banach space and the identity has a geometrically and topologically good enough local approximation at $x$, then $x$ is already a denting point. It turns…
In this paper we show that every sequence (F_n) of finite dimensional subspaces of a real or complex Banach space with increasing dimensions can be ``refined'' to yield an F.D.D. (G_n), still having increasing dimensions, so that either…
We consider questions posed in a recent paper of Mandayam, Bandyopadhyay, Grassl and Wootters [10] on the nature of "unextendible mutually unbiased bases." We describe a conceptual framework to study these questions, using a connection…
A new method of defining hereditarily indecomposable Banach spaces is presented. This method provides a unified approach for constructing reflexive HI spaces and also HI spaces with no reflexive subspace. All the spaces presented here…
We present a reflexive Banach space $\mathfrak{X}_{_{^\text{usm}}}$ which is Hereditarily Indecomposable and satisfies the following properties. In every subspace $Y$ of $\mathfrak{X}_{_{^\text{usm}}}$ there exists a weakly null normalized…
We construct a continuum of mutually non-isomorphic separable Banach spaces which are complemented in each other. Consequently, the Schroeder-Bernstein Index of any of these spaces is $2^{\aleph_0}$. Our construction is based on a Banach…
