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…

In this short note, we prove that the set of elementary tensors is weakly closed in the projective tensor product of two Banach spaces. As a result, we are able to answer a question from the literature proving that if $(x_n) \subset X$ and…

A net $(x_\alpha)$ in a vector lattice $X$ is said to be {unbounded order convergent} (or uo-convergent, for short) to $x\in X$ if the net $(\abs{x_\alpha-x}\wedge y)$ converges to 0 in order for all $y\in X_+$. In this paper, we study…

The new concepts are introduced of almost overcomplete sequence in a Banach space and almost overtotal sequence in a dual space. We prove that any of such sequences is relatively norm-compact and we obtain several applications of this fact.

In this paper, we study minimality properties of partly modified mixed Tsirelson spaces. A Banach space with a normalized basis (e_k) is said to be subsequentially minimal if for every normalized block basis (x_k) of (e_k), there is a…

We characterize the weak-star point of continuity property for subspaces of dual spaces with separable predual and we deduce that the weak-star point of continuity property is determined by subspaces with a Schauder basis in the natural…

Motivated by the equivalent definition of a continuous operator between Banach spaces in terms of weakly null nets, we introduce two types of continuous operators between Banach lattices using unbounded absolute weak convergence. We…

The space Weak L^1 consists of all measurable functions on [0,1] such that q(f) = sup_{c>0} c \lambda{t : |f(t)| > c} is finite, where \lambda denotes Lebesgue measure. Let \rho be the gauge functional of the unit ball {f : q(f) \leq 1} of…

Motivated by Rosenthal's famous $l^1$-dichotomy in Banach spaces, Haydon's theorem, and additionally by recent works on tame dynamical systems, we introduce the class of tame locally convex spaces. This is a natural locally convex analogue…

We show that if a Banach space X has the weak fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings and Y has the generalized Gossez-Lami Dozo property or is uniformly convex in every direction, then the direct sum of X and Y with a strictly…

We study the class of compact convex subsets of a topological vector space which admits a strictly convex and lower semicontinuous function. We prove that such a compact set is embeddable in a strictly convex dual Banach space endowed with…

We present some extensions of classical results that involve elements of the dual of Banach spaces, such as Bishop-Phelp's theorem and James' compactness theorem, but restricting to sets of functionals determined by geometrical properties.…

For an unbounded operator $S$ on a Banach space the existence of invariant subspaces corresponding to its spectrum in the left and right half-plane is proved. The general assumption on $S$ is the uniform boundedness of the resolvent along…

We generalize the notion of flat chains with arbitrary coefficient groups to Banach spaces and prove a sequential compactness result. We also remove the restriction that a flat chain have finite mass in order for its support to exist.

In this note we show that every Banach space $X$ not containing $\ell_1^n$ uniformly and with unconditional basis contains an arbitrarily distortable subspace.

Martingale-like sequences in vector lattice and Banach lattice frameworks are defined in the same way as martingales are defined in [Positivity 9 (2005), 437--456]. In these frameworks, a collection of bounded $X$-martingales is shown to be…

A well-known application of the Ramsey Theorem in the Banach Space Theory is the proof of the fact that every normalized basic sequence has a subsequence which generates a spreading model (the Brunel-Sucheston Theorem). Based on this…

We present equivalent conditions for a space $X$ with an unconditional basis to admit an equivalent norm with a strictly convex dual norm.

A Banach space has the weak fixed point property if its dual space has a weak$^*$ sequentially compact unit ball and the dual space satisfies the weak$^*$ uniform Kadec-Klee property; and it has the \fpp if there exists $\epsilon>0$ such…

We study long chains of iterated weak* derived sets, that is sets of all weak* limits of bounded nets, of subspaces with the additional property that the penultimate weak* derived set is a proper norm dense subspace of the dual. We extend…
