The paper may be downloaded from the bulletin board by ftp to ftp.math.okstate.edu or transmitting the commands begin send basterobernuespena.tex end to: banach-files at math.okstate.edu. Abstract:The classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality states that for $A_1,A_2\subset\R^n$ compact, $$ |A_1+A_2|^{1/n}\ge |A_1|^{1/n}+|A_2|^{1/n}\eqno(1) $$ where $|\cdot|$ denotes the Lebesgue measure on $\R^n$. In 1986 V. Milman {\bf [Mil 1]} discovered that if $B_1$ and $B_2$ are balls there is always a relative position of $B_1$ and $B_2$ for which a perturbed inverse of $(1)$ holds. More precisely:\lq\lq{\sl There exists a constant $C>0$ such that for all $n\in\N$ and any balls $B_1,B_2\subset\R^n$ we can find a linear transformation $u\colon\R^n\to\R^n$ with $|{\rm det}(u)|=1$ and $$|u(B_1)+B_2|^{1/n}\le C(|B_1|^{1/n}+|B_2|^{1/n})"$$} The aim of this paper is to extend this Milman's result to a larger class of sets.

The paper is typed in LATeX. The paper may be downloaded from the bulletin board by ftp to ftp.math.okstate.edu or transmitting the commands begin send asmarmontsmithanal.ltx end to: banach-files at math.okstate.edu. Abstract:Let $\Sigma$\ be a $\sigma$-algebra over $\Omega$, and let $M(\Sigma)$\ denote the Banach space of complex measures. Consider a representation $T_t$\ for $t\in\Bbb R$\ acting on $M(\Sigma)$. We show that under certain, very weak hypotheses, that if for a given $\mu \in M(\Sigma)$\ and all $A \in \Sigma$\ the map $t \mapsto T_t \mu(A)$\ is in $H^\infty(\Bbb R)$, then it follows that the map $t \mapsto T_t \mu$\ is Bochner measurable. The proof is based upon the idea of the Analytic Radon Nikod\'ym Property. Straightforward applications yield a new and simpler proof of Forelli's main result concerning analytic measures ({\it Analytic and quasi-invariant measures}, Acta Math., {\bf 118} (1967), 33--59).

The paper may be downloaded from the bulletin board by ftp to ftp.math.okstate.edu or transmitting the commands begin send ferencziucindecomp.ltx end to: banach-files at math.okstate.edu. Abstract:A {\em hereditarily indecomposable (or H.I.)} Banach space is an infinite dimensional Banach space such that no subspace can be written as the topological sum of two infinite dimensional subspaces. As an easy consequence, no such space can contain an unconditional basic sequence. This notion was first introduced in 1993 by T.Gowers and B.Maurey, who constructed the first known example of a hereditarily indecomposable space. Gowers-Maurey space is reflexive, however it is not uniformly convex. In this article, we provide an example of a uniformly convex hereditarily indecomposable space, using similar methods as Gowers and Maurey, and using the theory of complex interpolation for a family of Banach spaces of Coifman, Cwikel, Rochberg, Sagher and Weiss.

The Department would prefer senior candidates (Full Professors or Associates with several years experience) specializing in an area compatible with the current research interests of the Department (Banach spaces, operator theory, function theory, PDE's). This is an ideal opportunity for someone on sabbatical leave in Fall '95. Interested parties should contact me _immediately_!

Abstract:We prove a number of results concerning the embedding of a Banach lattice $X$ into an r.i. space $Y$. For example we show that if $Y$ is an r.i. space on $[0,\infty)$ which is $p$-convex for some $p>2$ and has nontrivial concavity then any Banach lattice $X$ which is $r$-convex for some $r>2$ and embeds into $Y$ must embed as a sublattice. Similar conclusions can be drawn under a variety of hypotheses on $Y$; if $X$ is an r.i. space on $[0,1]$ one can replace the hypotheses of $r$-convexity for some $r>2$ by $X\neq L_2.$ We also show that if $Y$ is an order-continuous Banach lattice which contains no complemented sublattice lattice-isomorphic to $\ell_2,$ $X$ is an order-continuous Banach lattice so that $\ell_2$ is not complementably lattice finitely representable in $X$ and $X$ is isomorphic to a complemented subpace of $Y$ then $X$ is isomorphic to a complemented sublattice of $Y^N$ for some integer $N.$ File length:111K

We also show another result that is related to an old question of whether $$P(\max_{1\le i\le k} |X_i|<t) \ge P(\max_{1\le i\le m} |X_i|<t) \ P(\max_{m+1\le i\le k} |X_i|<t)$$ where $X_1,\dots,X_k$ are jointly Gaussian random variables with zero mean, and $m<k.$ We show that the quantity in the left-hand side has a local minimum at the point where the random variables $X_i$ and $X_j$ are independent for any choice of $1\le i\le m$ and $m+1\le j\le k.$ File length:18K

Abstract:We extend ideas of Garling to consider the so called Hardy martingales in a more general setting of H^p theory of compact abelian groups with ordered dual. As a consequence, we obtain a new proof of a result of Helson and Lowdenslager which generalizes Jensen's Inequality for H^1 functions. File length:22K

The paper may be downloaded from the bulletin board by ftp to ftp.math.okstate.edu or transmitting the commands begin send banaszczykszarek.ltx end to: banach-files at math.okstate.edu. Abstract:Let $\| \cdot \|$ be the euclidean norm on ${\bf R}^n$ and $\gamma_n$ the (standard) Gaussian measure on ${\bf R}^n$ with density $(2 \pi )^{-n/2} e^{- \| x\|^2 /2}$. Let $\vartheta$ ($ \simeq 1.3489795$) be defined by $\gamma_1 ([ - \vartheta /2, \vartheta /2]) = 1/2$ and let $L$ be a lattice in ${\bf R}^n$ generated by vectors of norm $\leq \vartheta$. Then, for any closed convex set $V$ in ${\bf R}^n$ with $\gamma_n (V) \geq \frac{1}{2}$ and for any $a \in {\bf R}^n$, $(a +L) \cap V \neq \phi$. The above statement can be viewed as a ``nonsymmetric'' version of Minkowski Theorem. File length:11K

From today forward all new hotel reservations must be made by participants directly with the hotels. A list is given below. Fortunately, we have been able to distribute all of the money available for participants. No additional funds will be available. **************************************************** 1.- MORNING SPEAKERS P.Casazza (University of Missouri) Complemented unconditional basic sequences in Banach lattices G.Debs (Universite de Paris VI) Descriptive complexity of the set of norm-attaining linear functionals R.Deville (Universite de Bordeaux) Analytic approximation in Banach spaces G.Godefroy (Universite de Paris VI) Smoothness and descriptive set theory T.Gowers (University College London) Spaces containing \ell_p R.Haydon (Oxford University) Trees in renorming theory: The Last Chapter B.Maurey (Universite de Paris VII) Some exotic Banach spaces R.Paya (Universidad de Granada) Some results related to the Bishop-Phelps theorem D.Preiss (University College London) Some conjectures on the differentiability of Lipschitz mappings N.Tomczak-Jaegermann (University of Alberta) Bounded distortions and unconditional basic sequences S.Troyanski (Universidad de Valencia/University of Sofia) On sigma-uniformly rotund Banach spaces M.Valdivia (Universidad de Valencia) Interpolation property and complemented subspaces in spaces of polynomials 2.- OPEN SEMINARS The afternoon seminars will be organized upon arrival of the participants. On Wednesday evening and Thursday morning a list of seminars will be drawn up and posted, each with the name of a proposer/coordinator. Those interested in one or more of these seminars will be invited to offer to speak or otherwise participate. Since this is a "Workshop", a typical "talk" will consist of a presentation and discussion of open problems and possible directions for future development. Formal lectures, such as given in the morning, will not be appropriate. Anyone may propose and/or organize additional seminars on any topic what-so-ever. We expect to have a sufficient number of class rooms. 3.- HOW TO GET TO THE "FACULTAD DE MATEMATICAS" The Workshop will take place at the "Facultad de Matematicas" at the new Campus outside the city. - THE WORKSHOP BUS This bus will take people from the hotels to the University (Workshop) in the morning and take them back to the centre of the city at the end of the day. MORNING: The workshop bus will leave from "Jardin de Floridablanca" across the street from Hotel Casa Emilio and very near to Hotel Pacoche at 9.20 a.m. and then will pass by "Plaza de Cetina" very near to Hotel Rincon de Pepe and Hotel Huertanica. EVENING: the bus will return to the center of Murcia at the end of the day, at a time to be specified. - PUBLIC BUSES Bus number 39 goes directly from the city to the University. It leaves from "Plaza Fuensanta" across the street from the main entrance to the department store "El Corte Ingles" every 15 minutes between 7.45 a.m. and 10 a.m. and then every 30 minutes. Buses return at the same intervals with the last bus leaving the Campus at 21.00. Between 18.30 and 20.30 the intervals are 15 minutes. - PEOPLE USING THEIR OWN CARS People who wish to use their own car should take motorway A-7 (E-15) in the direction to Alicante and exit at "Universidad". The Campus is about 5 kilometers from the centre of Murcia. 4.- LIST OF PARTICIPANTS Acosta Vigil, Maria Dolores; Aguirre Bago, Fco.; Alamino Prats, Jeronimo; Azagra, Daniel; Benitez, Julio; Bernues Pardo, Julio; Besbes, Mourad; Blasco de la Cruz, Oscar; Bombal, Fernando; Cabello Pinar, Juan C.; Cascales, Bernardo; Casazza, Pete; Cassier, Gilles; Castillo, Jesus M.F.; Cerda, Joan; Contreras Marquez, Manuel; Debs, Gabriel; Delabriere, Sylvie; Deville, Robert; Diaz Madrigal, Santiago; Fabian, Marian; Fernandez Carrion, Antonio; Fernandez, Pedro; Ferrer Llopis, Jesus; Finet, Catherine; Fonf, Vladimir; Garcia Castejon, Felicisimo; Garcia Del Amo, Alejandro; Godefroy, Gilles; Gonzalez, Manuel; Gonalez, Raquel; Gowers,Tim; Haydon, Richard; Hensgen, Wolfgang; Hernandez, Francisco; Hernando, Beatriz; Indurain Eraso, Esteban; Jaramillo, Jesus; Jayne, John; Jimenez Vargas, Antonio ;Jorda, Enrique ;Kutzarova Denka; Lacien, Gilles; Leiderman, Arkady; Llanova, Jose G.; Manjabacas, Guillermo; Martinez, Abejon, Antonio; Maurey, Bernard; Mena Jurado, Juan Fco.; Molto, Anibal; Montesinos, Vicente; Moreno, Jose Pedro; Munoz, Gustavo; Navarro Pascual, Juan C.; Orihuela, Jose; Pallares, Antonio; Papini, Pier Luigi; Paya, Rafael; Plans, Antonio; Preiss, David; Ribarska, Nadya; Rodriguez, Baltasar; Rodriguez-Piazza, Luis; Rogers, C.A.; Sanchez Fernandez, Fernando; Schmets, Jean; Signes, Teresa; Suarez Granero, Antonio; Tomczak-Jaegermann, Nicole; Troyanski, Stanimir; Valdivia, Manuel; Vera, Gabriel; Vidal Vazquez, Ricardo 5.- LIST OF HOTELS HOTEL TEL.

<<<<<<<<<DO NOT REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE OR MAIL TO BANACH-DIST.>>>>>>>>>>> This is the abstract of the paper "Universal Non-Completely-Continuous Operators" by M. Girardi and W.B. Johnson. The paper is typed in AMSTeX. The paper may be downloaded from the bulletin board by ftp to ftp.math.okstate.edu or transmitting the commands begin send girardijohnsonuop.atx end to: banach-files at math.okstate.edu. Abstract:A bounded linear operator between Banach spaces is called {\it completely continuous} if it carries weakly convergent sequences into norm convergent sequences. Isolated is a universal operator for the class of non-completely-continuous operators from $L_1$ into an arbitrary Banach space, namely, the operator from $L_1$ into $\ell_\infty$ defined by $$ T_0 (f) =\left( \int r_n f \, d\mu \right)_{n\ge 0} \ , $$ where $r_n$ is the $n^{\text{th}}$ Rademacher function. It is also shown that there does not exist a universal operator for the class of non-completely-continuous operators between two arbitrary Banach space. The proof uses the factorization theorem for weakly compact operators and a Tsirelson-like space. File length:36K

SCHEDULE: This will be announced in the third SUMIRFAS announcement, about one week before the conference. The first talk on Friday will be at 11 a.m. and the last talk on Sunday will end at 4 p.m. Most participants will be arriving thursday and leaving monday. SPEAKERS: The main speakers will include Hari Bercovici, Evareste Gine, Vladimir Koltchinskii, Joram Lindenstrauss, Ted Odell, Vern Paulsen, Norberto Salinas, and Gideon Schechtman. There will also be a number of 20 minute talks. HOUSING: Since this is summer graduation weekend at A&M, you will probably have difficulty making reservations directly. We have reserved a bloc of rooms at Hampton Inn, which is close to campus. You will need to go through Jan Want, (jan.want at math.tamu.edu, (409) 845-3261, FaX (409) 845-6028 ) to get one of these rooms. Please tell Jan whether you are requesting support, the type of accomodation you desire (smoking or nonsmoking), which night(s) you need the room, and give her a roommate preference. We expect to be able to cover housing, possibly in a double room, for most participants. Preference will be given to participants who do not have other sources of support, such as sponsored research grants. IMPORTANT: Our reserved block of rooms at the Hampton Inn will expire on July 28 in the sense that any rooms left that have not been booked for a workshop participant by that time will be released to the general public. Those were the terms they gave us. So if you wait, you may have a great deal of difficulty getting a room. Contact Dave Larson ( larson at math.tamu.edu ) about this if you have trouble, and he or Jan Want will try to assist you. Apart from graduation, there is also another large convention in town during this time, so rooms are scarce. BANQUET: Srdjan Petrovic (PETROVIC at IU-MATH.MATH.INDIANA.EDU) and Hari Bercovici of Indiana University will be organizing a Banquet on Saturday, Aug 12 in honor of Carl Pearcys 60th birthday. They will provide you with additional information about this. WORKSHOP: A number of participants in our Informal Summer Workshop on Linear Analysis and Probability will be present at A&M for varying periods of time during the summer preceeding and following SUMIRFAS.

The paper is typed in LaTeX. The paper may be downloaded from the bulletin board by ftp to ftp.math.okstate.edu or transmitting the commands begin send wenzelwpmart.ltx end to: banach-files at math.okstate.edu. Abstract:The concept of Rademacher type $p$ ($1\leq p\leq2$) plays an important role in the local theory of Banach spaces. In \cite{mas88} Mascioni considers a weakening of this concept and shows that for a Banach space $X$ weak Rademacher type $p$ implies Rademacher type $r$ for all $r<p$. As with Rademacher type $p$ and weak Rademacher type $p$, we introduce the concept of Haar type $p$ and weak Haar type $p$ by replacing the Rademacher functions by the Haar functions in the respective definitions. We show that weak Haar type $p$ implies Haar type $r$ for all $r<p$. This solves a problem left open by Pisier \cite{pis75}. The method is to compare Haar type ideal norms related to different index sets. File length:46K

Abstract:Aldroubi has shown how one can construct any frame $\gtu$ starting with one frame $\ftu $,using a bounded operator $U$ on $l^2(N)$. We study the overcompleteness of the frames in terms of properties of $U$. We also discuss perturbation of frames in the sense that two frames are ``close'' if a certain operator is compact. In this way we obtain an equivalence relation with the property that members of the same equivalence class have the same overcompleteness. On the other hand we show that perturbation in the Paley-Wiener sense does not have this property. \\ Finally we construct a frame which is norm-bounded below, but which does not contain a Riesz basis.The construction is based on the delicate difference between the unconditional convergence of the frame representation, and the fact that a convergent series in the frame elements need not converge unconditionally.

The paper may be downloaded from the bulletin board by ftp to ftp.math.okstate.edu or transmitting the commands begin send haydontree.atx end to: banach-files at math.okstate.edu. Abstract:Trees are very agreeable objects to work with, offering a diversity of behaviour within a structure that is sufficiently simple to admit precise analysis. Thus we are able to offer fairly satisfactory necessary and sufficient conditions on a tree $\Upsilon $ for the existence of equivalent LUR or strictly convex norms on $\C_0(\Upsilon )$ and for norms with the Kadec Property. In particular, we show that for a {\sl finitely branching} tree $\Upsilon $ the space $\C_0(\Upsilon )$ admits a Kadec renorming. Since some finitely branching trees fail the condition for strictly convex renormability, we obtain an example of a Banach space that is Kadec renormable but not strictly convexifiable. Consideration of specially tailored examples enables us to answer the ``three-space problem'' for strictly convex renorming: there exists a Banach space $X$ with a closed subspace $Y$ such that both $Y$ and the quotient $X/Y$ admit strictly convex norms, while $X$ does not. We also solve a problem about the the property of mid-point locally uniform convexity (MLUR), showing that this does not imply LUR renormability. In the case of smoothness properties of renormings, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a Fr\'echet-smooth renorming, which turns out (rather surprisingly) to be the same as the condition for LUR renormability. We also show that when $\C_0(\Upsilon )$ admits a Fr\'echet smooth norm it even admits a $\C^\infty$ norm. By considering another specially tailored tree we obtain solution to the quotient problem for Fr\'echet differentiable renorming: there is a Banach space $X$ with a Fr\'echet differentiable norm and a closed subspace $Y$ such that the quotient space $X/Y$ admits no Fr\'echet differentiable renorming. We have few results about G\^ateaux differentiability, though we do give an example of a space $X$ (as always, of the form $\C_0(\Upsilon )$) which is not strictly convexifiable even though it admits an equivalent norm with strictly convex dual norm. This seems to be the first example of a space with a G\^ateaux smooth norm which is not strictly convexifiable. Finally we include some results that are not about renorming theory in the strict sense. The theorem of Ekeland and Lebourg already cited in this introduction was in fact proved with hypothesis weaker than the existence of a Fr\'echet smooth norm. They needed only a non-trivial Fr\'echet differentiable function of bounded support, what is usually referred to as a ``bump function''. A number of more recent results have been established subject to hypotheses of this type, including the interesting variational results of Deville, Godefroy and Zizler [\DGZtwo]. Using a non-linear version of our technique for the construction of Fr\'echet differentiable norms, as presented in [\Haydonfive], we show that $\C_0(\Upsilon )$ admits a $\C^\infty$ bump function for every tree $\Upsilon $, so that there certainly exist spaces that admit bump functions but no good norms. Finally, using another result from [\Haydonfive], we show that $\C_0(\Upsilon )$ always admits $\C^\infty$ partitions of unity. File length:152K

We study the overcompleteness of the frames in terms of properties of $U$. We also discuss perturbation of frames in the sense that two frames are ``close'' if a certain operator is compact. In this way we obtain an equivalence relation with the property that members of the same equivalence class have the same overcompleteness. On the other hand we show that perturbation in the Paley-Wiener sense does not have this property. \\ Finally we construct a frame which is norm-bounded below, but which does not contain a Riesz basis.The construction is based on the delicate difference between the unconditional convergence of the frame representation, and the fact that a convergent series in the frame elements need not converge unconditionally.

Abstract:In noncommutative probability theory independence can be based on free products instead of tensor products. This yields a highly noncommutative theory: free probability . Here we show that the classical Shannon's entropy power inequality has a counterpart for the free analogue of entropy . The free entropy (introduced recently by the second named author), consistently with Boltzmann's formula $S=k\log W$, was defined via volumes of matricial microstates. Proving the free entropy power inequality naturally becomes a geometric question. Restricting the Minkowski sum of two sets means to specify the set of pairs of points which will be added. The relevant inequality, which holds when the set of "addable" points is sufficiently large, differs from the Brunn-Minkowski inequality by having the exponent $1/n$ replaced by $2/n$. Its proof uses the rearrangement inequality of Brascamp-Lieb-L\"uttinger . File length:22K

Abstract:Let $X$ be a Banach space and $(\Omega,\Sigma)$ be a measure space. We provide a characterization of sequences in the space of $X$-valued countably additive measures on $\Omega,\Sigma)$ of bounded variation that generate complemented copies of $\ell_1$. As application, we prove that if a dual Banach space $E^*$ has Pe\l czy\'nski's property (V*) then so does the space of $E^*$-valued countably additive measures with bounded variation. Another application, we show that for a Banach space $X$, the space $\ell_\infty(X)$ contains a complemented copy of $\ell_1$ if and only if $X$ contains all $\ell_1^n$ uniformly complemented.

Abstract:Let $E$ be a Banach space that does not contain any copy of $\ell^1$ and $\A$ be a non commutative $C^*$-algebra. We prove that every absolutely summing operator from $\A$ into $E^*$ is compact, thus answering a question of Pe\l czynski. As application, we show that if $G$ is a compact metrizable abelian group and $\Lambda$ is a Riesz subset of its dual then every countably additive $\A^*$-valued measure with bounded variation and whose Fourier transform is supported by $\Lambda$ has relatively compact range. Extensions of the same result to symmetric spaces of measurable operators are also presented. File length:29K

Abstract:In this work, we introduce a new Asymptotic Norming Property (ANP) which lies between the strongest and weakest of the existing ones, and obtain isometric characterisations of it. The corresponding w*-ANP turns out to be equivalent on the one hand, to Property $(V)$ introduced by Sullivan, and to a ball separation property on the other. We also study stability properties of this new ANP and its w*-version. File length:24K

Abstract:We obtain the following characterization of Hilbert spaces. Let $E$ be a Banach space whose unit sphere $S$ has a hyperplane of symmetry. Then $E$ is a Hilbert space iff any of the following two conditions is fulfilled: a) the isometry group ${\rm Iso}\, E$ of $E$ has a dense orbit in S; b) the identity component $G_0$ of the group ${\rm Iso}\, E$ endowed with the strong operator topology acts topologically irreducible on $E$. Some related results on infinite dimentional Coxeter groups generated by isometric reflexions are given which allow to analyse the structure of isometry groups containing sufficiently many reflexions.

The paper may be downloaded from the bulletin board by ftp to ftp.math.okstate.edu or transmitting the commands begin send pisierthmkirchberg.tex end to: banach-files at math.okstate.edu. Abstract:Recently, E.\ Kirchberg [K1--2] revived the study of pairs of $C^*$-algebras $A,B$ such that there is only one $C^*$-norm on the algebraic tensor product $A\otimes B$, or equivalently such that $A \otimes_{\rm min}B = A\otimes_{\rm max}B$. Recall that a $C^*$-algebra is called nuclear cf.\ [L, EL] if this happens for any $C^*$-algebra $B$. Kirchberg [K1] constructed the first example of a non-nuclear $C^*$-algebra such that $A\otimes_{\rm min} A^{op} = A \otimes_{\rm max} A^{op}$. He also proved the following striking result [K2] for which we give a very simple proof and which we extend. \proclaim Theorem 0.1. {\bf (Kirchberg [K2]).} Let $F$ be any free group and let $C^*(F)$ be the (full) $C^*$-algebra of $F$, then $$C^*(F) \otimes_{\rm min} B(H) = C^*(F) \otimes_{\rm max} B(H).$$ File length:44K

Abstract:Let $u_1,\ldots,u_n$ be unitary operators on a Hilbert space $H$. We study the norm $$\left\|\sum^{i=n}_{i=1} u_i \otimes \bar u_i\right\|\leqno (1)$$ of the operator $\sum u_i \otimes \bar u_i$ acting on the Hilbertian tensor product $H\otimes_2 \overline H$. The main result of this note is Theorem 1. For any $n$-tuple $u_1,\ldots, u_n$ of unitary operators in $B(H)$, we have $$2\sqrt{n-1} \le \left\|\sum^n_1 u_i \otimes \bar u_i\right\|.\leqno (6)$$ In other words, the right side of (6) is minimal exactly when $u_i = \lambda(g_i)$.

Abstract:Suppose that a real nonatomic function space on $[0,1]$ is equipped with two re\-arran\-ge\-ment-invariant norms $\|\cdot\|$ and $|||\cdot|||$. We study the question whether or not the fact that $(X,\|\cdot\|)$ is isometric to $(X,|||\cdot|||)$ implies that $\|f\|= |||f|||$ for all $f$ in $X$. We show that in strictly monotone Orlicz and Lorentz spaces this is equivalent to asking whether or not the norms are defined by equal Orlicz functions, resp. Lorentz weights. We show that the above implication holds true in most rearrangement-invariant spaces, but we also identify a class of Orlicz spaces where it fails. We provide a complete description of Orlicz functions $\varphi \neq\psi$ with the property that $L_\varphi$ and $L_\psi$ are isometric. File length:50K
