For every $p\in (0,\infty)$ we associate to every metric space $(X,d_X)$ a numerical invariant $\mathfrak{X}_p(X)\in [0,\infty]$ such that if $\mathfrak{X}_p(X)<\infty$ and a metric space $(Y,d_Y)$ admits a bi-Lipschitz embedding into $X$…

We construct a Banach space satisfying that the nearest point map (also called proximity mapping or metric projection) onto any compact and convex subset is continuous but not uniformly continuous. The space we construct is locally…

This paper initiates the study of the structure of a new class of $p$-Banach spaces, $0<p<1$, namely the Lipschitz free $p$-spaces (alternatively called Arens-Eells $p$-spaces) $\mathcal{F}_{p}(\mathcal{M})$ over $p$-metric spaces. We…

It is shown that every separable reflexive Banach space is a quotient of a reflexive Hereditarily Indecomposable space, which yields that every separable reflexive Banach is isomorphic to a subspace of a reflexive Indecomposable space.…

We solve two main questions on linear structures of (non-)norm-attaining Lipschitz functions. First, we show that for every infinite metric space $M$, the set consisting of Lipschitz functions on $M$ which do not strongly attain their norm…

There are two main aims of the paper. The first one is to extend the criterion for the precompactness of sets in Banach function spaces to the setting of quasi-Banach function spaces. The second one is to extend the criterion for the…

The isometric universality of the spaces $C(K)$ for $K$ a non scattered Hausdorff compact does not take into account the ``quality'' of the representation. Indeed, the existence of an isometric copy of a separable Banach space $X$ into…

We prove that any hyperbolic group admits a proper affine isometric action on a quotient space of a $\ell^p$ Banach space, for all $p>1$ sufficiently close to 1.

The classical Banach space $L_1(L_p)$ consists of measurable scalar functions $f$ on the unit square for which $$\|f\| = \int_0^1\Big(\int_0^1 |f(x,y)|^p dy\Big)^{1/p}dx < \infty.$$ We show that $L_1(L_p)$ $(1 < p < \infty)$ is primary,…

If $p\in [1,+\infty]$ and $T$ is a linear operator with $p$-nuclear adjoint from a Banach space $ X$ to a Banach space $Y$ then if one of the spaces $X^*$ or $Y^{***}$ has the approximation property, then $T$ belongs to the ideal $N^p$ of…

Given an infinite-dimensional Banach space $X$ and a Banach space $Y$ with no finite cotype, we determine whether or not every continuous linear operator from $X$ to $Y$ is absolutely $(q;p)$-summing for almost all choices of $p$ and $q$,…

We study some properties of the randomized series and their applications to the geometric structure of Banach spaces. For $n\ge 2$ and $1<p<\infty$, it is shown that $\ell_\infty^n$ is representable in a Banach space $X$ if and only if it…

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…

For complete metric spaces $X$ and $Y$, a description of linear biseparating maps between spaces of vector-valued Lipschitz functions defined on $X$ and $Y$ is provided. In particular it is proved that $X$ and $Y$ are bi-Lipschitz…

We show that for each $p\in(0,1]$ there exists a separable $p$-Banach space $\mathbb G_p$ of almost universal disposition, that is, having the following extension property: for each $\epsilon>0$ and each isometric embedding $g:X\to Y$,…

Let us consider a Banach space $X$ with the property that every real-valued Lipschitz function $f$ can be uniformly approximated by a Lipschitz, $C^1$-smooth function $g$ with $\Lip(g)\le C \Lip(f)$ (with $C$ depending only on the space…

We study best approximations to compact operators between Banach spaces and Hilbert spaces, from the point of view of Birkhoff-James orthogonality and semi-inner-products. As an application of the present study, some distance formulae are…

We show that for any separable reflexive Banach space $X$ and a large class of Banach spaces $E$, including those with a subsymmetric shrinking basis but also all spaces $L_p$ for $1\leq p \leq \infty$, every bounded linear map ${\mathcal…

In this article, we establish the existence of a norm-one projection from the space of all \emph{two-Lipschitz} operators onto the space of all bounded bilinear operators under certain conditions on the corresponding codomain spaces, using…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and let $(\xi_j)_{j\ge 1}$ be an i.i.d. sequence of symmetric random variables with finite moments of all orders. We prove that the following assertions are equivalent: (1). There exists a constant $K$ such that $$…
