Dear Banach space BBS subscribers, There is a move to consolidate several of the preprint servers into one mathematics server. Under this arrangement the current contents of the Banach space archive will be included in the archive at Los Alamos, http://xxx.lanl.gov/new/math.html The complete details are not yet available, but I intend to maintain an interface as before with links into the new archive. Preprint submission will change and preprints will be available in multiple forms, TeX, pdf, and postscript. The archive will be mirrored and preprints will be more widely circulated. When the details are more complete, I will send out further information. The target date for the change is February 1, 1998. IF YOU DO NOT WANT YOUR PREPRINTS ON THE CURRENT SERVER TO BE AVAILABLE ON THE NEW SERVER, SEND ME A MESSAGE BEFORE JANUARY 25, 1998 STATING THAT YOU WANT THE PREPRINT WITHDRAWN.

From alspach Tue Feb 10 11:09:42 1998 To: banach Subject: Abstract of a paper by V. Farmaki Content-Length: 2547
This is the abstract of the paper "Ramsey dichotomies with ordinal index" by V. Farmaki. The paper is typed in LaTeX2.09. The paper may be downloaded from the bulletin board by ftp to ftp.math.okstate.edu or transmitting the command get banach farmakirmsydichot.tex to: majordomo at littlewood.math.okstate.edu. Abstract:A system of uniform families on an infinite subset $M$ of $\nn$ is a collection $(\cca_{\xi})_{\xi<\omega_1}$ of families of finite subsets of $\nn$ (where, $\cca_k$ consists of all $k$--element subset of $M$, for $k\in \nn$) with the properties that each $\cca_{\xi}$ is thin (i.e. it does not contain proper initial segments of any of its element) and the Cantor--Bendixson index, defined for $\cca_{\xi}$, is equal to $\xi+1$ and stable when we restrict ourselves to any subset of $M$. We indicate how to extend the generalized Schreier families to a system of uniform families. Using that notion we establish the correct (countable) ordinal index generalization of the classical Ramsey theorem (which corresponds to the finite ordinal indices). Indeed, for a family $\ccf$ of finite subsets of $\nn$, we obtain the following: \begin{enumerate} \item [(i)] For every infinite subset $M$ of $\nn$ and every countable ordinal $\xi$, there is an infinite subset $L$ of $M$ such that either $\cca_{\xi}\cap [L]^{<\omega}\subseteq\ccf$ or $\cca_{\xi}\cap [L]^{<\omega}\subseteq [\nn]^{<\omega}\smallsetminus\ccf$;\\ (where $[L]^{<\omega}$ denotes the family of all finite subsets of $L$). \item [(ii)] If, in addition $\ccf$ is hereditary and pointwise closed, then for every infinite subset $M$ of $\nn$ there is a countable ordinal number $\xi$ such that: \begin{enumerate} \item [(a)] For every ordinal number $\zeta$ with $\zeta+1<\xi$ there is an infinite subset $L$ of $M$ such that $\cca_{\xi}\cap [L]^{<\omega}\subseteq\ccf$. \item [(b)] For every ordinal number $\zeta$ with $\xi<\zeta+1$ there is an infinite subset $L$ of $M$ such that $\ccf\cap [L]^{<\omega}\subseteq (\cca_{\zeta})^{*}\smallsetminus \cca_{\zeta}$; which gives $\cca_{\xi}\cap [L]^{<\omega}\subseteq [\nn]^{<\omega}\smallsetminus\ccf$;\\ (where generally $\cca^{*}$ denotes the family of all initial segments of elements of $\cca$). \item [(c)] For $\zeta=\xi+1$, both alternatives ((a) and (b)) may materialize. \end{enumerate} \item [(iii)] If $\ccf$ is hereditary, then $\ccf$ is not closed if and only if there is an infinite subset $M$ of $\nn$ such that $[M]^{<\omega}\subseteq \ccf$. \end{enumerate} File Length: 78546 bytes

From alspach Mon Mar 9 12:57:24 1998 To: banach Subject: Abstract of a paper by H. Rosenthal Content-Length: 1510
This is the abstract of the paper "The complete separable extension property" by H. Rosenthal. 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 command get banach rosenthalcomplete.tex to: majordomo at littlewood.math.okstate.edu. Abstract:This work introduces operator space analogues of the Separable Extension Property (SEP) for Banach spaces; the Complete Separable Extension Property (CSEP) and the Complete Separable Complemention Property (CSCP). The results use the technique of a new proof of Sobczyk's Theorem, which also yields new results for the SEP in the non-separable situation, e.g., $(\oplus_{n=1}^\infty Z_n)_{c_0}$ has the $(2+\ep)$-SEP for all $\ep>0$ if $Z_1,Z_2,\ldots$ have the 1-SEP; in particular, $c_0 (\ell^\infty)$ has the SEP. It is proved that e.g., $c_0(\bR\oplus\bC)$ has the CSEP (where $\bR$, $\bC$ denote Row, Column space respectively) as a consequence of the general principle: if $Z_1,Z_2,\ldots$ is a uniformly exact sequence of injective operator spaces, then $(\oplus_{n=1}^\infty Z_n)_{c_0}$ has the CSEP. Similarly, e.g., $\bK_0 \defeq (\oplus_{n=1}^\infty M_n)_{c_0}$ has the CSCP, due to the general principle: $(\oplus_{n=1}^\infty Z_n)_{c_0}$ has the CSCP if $Z_1,Z_2,\ldots$ are injective separable operator spaces. Further structural results are obtained for these properties, and several open problems and conjectures are discussed. File Length: 118843 bytes

The paper may be downloaded from the bulletin board by ftp to ftp.math.okstate.edu or transmitting the command get banach casazzalammersgen.latex to: majordomo at littlewood.math.okstate.edu. Abstract:We show that the classification problem for genus~$n$ Banach spaces can be reduced to the unconditionally primary case and that the critical case there is $n=2$. It is further shown that a genus~$n$ Banach space is unconditionally primary if and only if it contains a complemented subspace of genus~$(n-1)$. We begin the process of classifying the genus~2 spaces by showing they have a strong decomposition property. File Length: 46421 bytes

The paper may be downloaded from the bulletin board by ftp to ftp.math.okstate.edu or transmitting the command get banach vershyninstrmbases.latex to: majordomo at littlewood.math.okstate.edu. Abstract:We find a natural class of transformations ("flattened perturbations") of a norming M-basis in a Banach space $X$, which give a strong norming M-basis in $X$. This simplifies and generalizes the positive answer to the "strong M-basis problem" solved by P.~Terenzi. We also show that in general one cannot achieve uniformly minimality applying standard transformations to a given norming M-basis, despite of the existence in $X$ a uniformly minimal strong M-bases.

Most of the papers from the Banach archive are now available at xxx.lanl.gov. The ones missing are from the transition period of February and March 1998. These will be added shortly. If there are others missing let me know. Note that papers from the years before 1992 are archived in the 1992 section. No new papers will be added at the old site. Note that the new archive uses gzipped files. This is not a proprietary format and is distributed for many machines as part of the GNU project. (see http://www.netlib.no/netlib/gnu/gzip/) This is not the same format as pkzip files. The Infozip unzip will also unzip these files and is available for many operating systems. UNIX systems usually have gunzip, WinZip works on windows machines and MacGzip works for Macs. There are probably many other unarchivers which will work. Below is a list of mirrors of the archive. If you experience problems or you have suggestions, let me know. I am adding some web pages about the new archive and links to help.

Vershynin Comments: 15 pages Subj-class: Functional Analysis MSC-class: 46B03; 46B07; 52A21 \\ Absolutely representing system (ARS) in a Banach space $X$ is a set $D \subset X$ such that every vector $x$ in $X$ admits a representation by an absolutely convergent series $x = \sum_i a_i x_i$ with $(a_i)$ reals and $(x_i) \subset D$. We investigate some general properties of ARS. In particular, ARS in uniformly smooth and in B-convex Banach spaces are characterized via $\epsilon$-nets of the unit balls. Every ARS in a B-convex Banach space is quick, i.e. in the representation above one can achieve $\|a_i x_i\| < cq^i\|x\|$, $i=1,2,...$ for some constants $c>0$ and $q \in (0,1)$. \\ ( http://xxx.lanl.gov/abs/math/9804044 , 11kb) %-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%- %%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%% %%%---%%%---%%%---%%%---%%%---%%%---%%%---%%%---%%%---%%%---%%%---%%%---%%%--- For general information on the new math archive (partitioned by keyword subject classification), see http://xxx.lanl.gov/new/math.html For subscribe options to combined math archives, e-mail To: math at xxx.lanl.gov, Subject: subscribe ---------------------------------------------- Instructions for Retrieving Papers Below "number" should be replaced by the paper number, e.g., 9804044.

Dear Subscribers, In the merged archive at xxx.lanl.gov Banach spaces is in the larger category functional analysis (FA). As a result I am filtering the postings and crosslistings to FA and forwarding only those that seem to fit within the general area of Banach spaces. Because I am doing the filtering, my ignorance and prejudices may cause me to eliminate some postings that you might feel really should be forwarded. Postings with MSC-class 46A-E will almost always be forwarded. Also postings to MG (metric geometry) and OA (operator algebras) which are crosslisted to FA will get serious consideration. However if one of these is your main area of interest you should consider subscribing directly to xxx.lanl.gov. You can help alleviate problems caused by my filtering by alerting me to omissions and if you submit a paper to the archive that you want advertised on this list which you think I might not forward, send me a note. As with anything new there will no doubt be some problems. Feel free to make suggestions. Dale Alspach alspach at math.okstate.edu

This is an announcement for the paper "Matrix compact sets and operator approximation properties" by Corran Webster. Abstract: The relationship between the operator approximation property and the strong operator approximation property has deep significance in the theory of operator algebras. The original definitions of Effros and Ruan, unlike the classical analogues, make no mention of compact operators or compact sets. In this paper we introduce ``compact matrix sets'' which correspond to the two different operator approximation properties, and show that a space has the operator approximation property if and only if the ``operator compact'' operators are contained in the closure of the finite rank operators. We also investigate when the two types of compactness agree, and introduce a natural condition which guarantees that they do.

This is an announcement for the paper "The dual of the Bourgain-Delbaen space" by Dale Alspach. Abstract: It is shown that a script L_infty-space with separable dual constructed by Bourgain and Delbaen has small Szlenk index and thus does not have a quotient isomorphic to C(omega^omega). It follows that this is a script L_infty-space which is the same size as c_0 in the sense of the Szlenk index but does not contain c_0. This has some consequences in the theory of uniform homeomorphism of Banach spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "The normed and Banach envelopes of Weak L^1" by Denny H. Leung. Abstract: 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 the quasi- norm q, and let N be the null space of \rho. The normed envelope of Weak L^1, which we denote by W, is the space (Weak L^1/N, \rho). The Banach envelope of Weak L^1, \overline{W}, is the completion of W. We show that \overline{W} is isometrically lattice isomorphic to a sublattice of W. It is also shown that all rearrangement invariant Banach function spaces are isometrically isomorphic to a sublattice of W.

This is an announcement for the paper "Extremal Approximately Convex Functions and Estimating the Size of Convex Hulls" by S. J. Dilworth, Ralph Howard, and James W. Roberts. Abstract: A real valued function $f$ defined on a convex $K$ is an approximately convex function iff it satisfies $$ f((x+y)/2) \le (f(x)+f(y))/2 + 1. $$ A thorough study of approximately convex functions is made. The principal results are a sharp universal upper bound for lower semi-continuous approximately convex functions that vanish on the vertices of a simplex and an explicit description of the unique largest bounded approximately convex function~$E$ vanishing on the vertices of a simplex. A set $A$ in a normed space is an approximately convex set iff for all $a,b\in A$ the distance of the midpoint $(a+b)/2$ to $A$ is $\le 1$. The bounds on approximately convex functions are used to show that in $\R^n$ with the Euclidean norm, for any approximately convex set $A$, any point $z$ of the convex hull of $A$ is at a distance of at most $[\log_2(n-1)]+1+(n-1)/2^{[\log_2(n-1)]}$ from $A$. Examples are given to show this is the sharp bound. Bounds for general norms on $R^n$ are also given.

The list software has been down for the last few weeks due to local system changes. Email file retrieval is still not functional from this list server however all papers are available from the Los Alamos archive or by using the web interface at http://www.math.okstate.edu/~alspach/banach/ I will be distributing some messages that were held while the sytem was down. There has been a slight change in the addresses. To send a message to the subscribers to the list, send it to banach at math.okstate.edu just as before. To subscribe or unsubscribe, retrieve a file by email (when it is working again), etc., use majordomo at math.okstate.edu Because of all the system changes I had to reconfigure many things. If you find that something about majordomo or the banach web pages is not working, send me a message. Remember that all new papers will only be stored at the Los Alamos archive and its mirrors.

This is an announcement for the paper "Lomonosov's theorem cannot be extended to chains of four operators" by Vladimir G.Troitsky. Abstract: We show that the celebrated Lomonosov theorem cannot be improved by increasing the number of commuting operators. Specifically, we prove that if T is the operator on l_1 without a non-trivial closed invariant subspace constructed by C.J.Read, then there are three operators S_1, S_2 and K (non-multiples of the identity) such that T commutes with S_1, S_1 commutes with S_2, S_2 commutes with K, and K is compact. It is also shown that the commutant of T contains only series of T.

Besides trigonometric functions, orthogonal systems formed by Haar, Walsh and Rademacher functions as well as by Gaussian random variables are treated. The main feature, however, is the consideration of functions taking their values in a Banach space. The reader will learn that some well-known classical theorems extend to the vector-valued case and some not. This fact is used to create special classes of operators which turn out to be ideals. In the setting of spaces, the text provides a unified approach to such famous concepts like Rademacher type and cotype, B-convexity, superreflexivity and the UMD-property. Large parts of the presentation are understandable for graduate students of mathematics with a basic knowledge in Banach space theory. A long list of unsolved problems may serve as a starting point for own research.

Megginson Hardback ISBN 0-387-98431-3 $64.95 1998 616pp Graduate Texts in Mathematics 183 Published: October 1998 Springer-Verlag New York, Inc. A detailed description of this book, including a section-by-section synopsis, can be found on the web at http://www.math.lsa.umich.edu/~meggin/ibst.html The purpose of this book is to serve as a text for a graduate course in functional analysis emphasizing Banach space theory. Its intended audience is graduate students who have had the standard courses in analysis and measure theory up to and including elementary properties of the L_p spaces, but who may not yet have seen any of the basic results from a first course in functional analysis, such as the uniform boundedness principle and the various forms of the Hahn-Banach theorem. See the Table of Contents below for an outline of the material presented, and the web address given above for a far more detailed description of the contents. The book is sprinkled liberally with examples, both to show the theory at work and to illustrate why certain hypotheses in theorems are necessary. The book is also sprinkled liberally with historical notes and citations of original sources, with special attention given to mentioning dates within the body of the text so that the reader can get a feeling for the time frame within which the different parts of Banach space theory evolved. Over 450 exercises provide supplementary examples and counterexamples and give students practice in the use of the results developed in the text.

From alspach Thu Oct 29 11:54:08 1998 To: banach at math.okstate.edu Subject: Abstract of a paper by Vladimir Pestov
This is an announcement for the paper "Amenable groups and measure concentration on spheres" by Vladimir Pestov. Abstract: It is proved that a discrete group $G$ is amenable if and only if for every unitary representation of $G$ in an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $\cal H$ the maximal uniform compactification of the unit sphere $\s_{\cal H}$ has a $G$-fixed point, that is, the pair $(\s_{\cal H},G)$ has the concentration property in the sense of Milman. Consequently, the maximal $U({\cal H})$-equivariant compactification of the sphere in a Hilbert space $\cal H$ has no fixed points, which answers a 1987 question by Milman.

This is an announcement for the paper "The bottleneck conjecture" by Greg Kuperberg. Abstract: The Mahler volume of a centrally symmetric convex body K is defined as M(K) = (Vol K)(Vol K^o), where K^o is the polar body of K. Mahler conjectured that this volume is minimized when K is a cube. We introduce the bottleneck conjecture, which stipulates that a certain convex body K^diamond in K x K^o has least volume when K is an ellipsoid. If true, the bottleneck conjecture would strengthen the best current lower bound on the Mahler volume due to Bourgain and Milman. We also generalize the bottleneck conjecture in the context of indefinite orthogonal geometry and prove some special cases of the generalization.

This is an announcement for the paper "frames of translates" by Peter G. Casazza, Ole Christensen, and Nigel J. Kalton. Abstract: We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a subfamily of regularly spaced translates of a function to form a frame (resp. a Riesz basis) for its span. One consequence is that if the translates are taken only from a subset of the natural numbers, then this family is a frame if and only if it is a Riesz basis. We also consider arbitrary sequences of translates and show that for sparse sets, having an upper frame bound is equivalent to the family being a frame sequence. Finally, we use the fractional Hausdorff dimension to identify classes of exact frame sequences.

Abstract: We give counterexamples to a conjecture of Bourgain, Casazza, Lindenstrauss and Tzafriri that if X has a unique unconditional basis (up to permutation) then so does c_0(X). In particular, we show that for Tsirelson's space T, every unconditional basis of c_0(T) must be equivalent to a subsequence of the canonical basis but c_0(T) still fails to have a unique unconditional basis. We also give some positive results including a simpler proof that c_0(l_1)has a unique unconditional basis.

This is an announcement for the paper "Local theory of frames and Schauder bases for Hilbert space" by Peter G. Casazza. Abstract: We develope a local theory for frames on finite dimensional Hilbert spaces. In particular, a bounded frame on a finite dimensional Hilbert space contains a subset which is a good Riesz basis for a percentage (arbitrarily close to one) of the space. We also construct a normalized frame for a Hilbert space which contains a subset which is a Schauder basis for H but does not contain any subset which is a Riesz basis for H.

Abstract: We show that every frame for a Hilbert space H can be written as a (multiple of a) sum of three orthonormal bases for H. A result of N.J. Kalton is included which shows that this is best possible in that: A frame can be represented as a linear combination of two orthonormal bases if and only if it is a Riesz basis. We further show that every frame can be written as a (multiple of a) sum of two normalized tight frames or as a sum of an orthonormal basis and a Riesz basis for H. Finally, every frame can be represented as a (multiple of a) average of two orthonormal bases for a larger Hilbert space.

Define the difference body by $$ K-K= \{ x-y \mid x,y \in K \}. $$ We estimate the volume of the section of $K-K$ by a linear subspace $F$ via the maximal volume of sections of $K$ parallel to $F$. We prove that for any $m$-dimensional subspace $F$ there exists $x \in R^n$, such that $$ vol ((K-K) \cap F) \le C^m ( \min ( n/m, \sqrt{m} ) )^m \cdot vol (K \cap (F+x)), $$ for some absolute constant $C$. We show that for small dimensions of $F$ this estimate is exact up to a multiplicative constant.

Assume that $0$ is an interior point of $K$ and define $$ M(K) =\int_{S^{n-1}} \| \omega \|_K d \mu (\omega), $$ where $\mu$ is the uniform measure on the sphere. Let $K^{\circ}$ be the polar body of $K$. We use the difference body estimate to prove that $K$ can be embedded into $R^n$ so that $$ M(K) \cdot M(K^{\circ}) \le C n^{1/3} \log^a n $$ for some absolute constants $C$ and $a$. We apply this result to show that the distance between two $n$-dimensional convex bodies does not exceed $n^{4/3}$ up to a logarithmic factor.

This is an announcement for the paper "Symmetric approximation of frames and bases in Hilbert spaces" by M. Frank, V. I. Paulsen and T. R. Tiballi . Abstract: We consider existence and uniqueness of symmetric approximation of frames by normalized tight frames and of symmetric orthogonalization of bases by orthonormal bases in Hilbert spaces H . More precisely, we determine whether a given frame or basis possesses a normalized tight frame or orthonormal basis that is quadratically closest to it, if there exists such frames or bases at all. A crucial role is played by the Hilbert-Schmidt property of the operator (P-|F|) , where F is the adjoint operator of the frame transform F*: H --> l_2 of the initial frame or basis and (1-P) is the projection onto the kernel of F . The result is useful in wavelet theory.

This is an announcement for the paper "Injective isometries in Orlicz spaces" by Beata Randrianantoanina. Abstract: We show that injective isometries in Orlicz space $L_M$ have to preserve disjointness, provided that Orlicz function $M$ satisfies $\Delta_2$-condition, has a continuous second derivative $M''$, satisfies another ``smoothness type'' condition and either $\lim_{t\to0} M''(t) = \infty$ or $M''(0) = 0$ and $M''(t)>0$ for all $t>0$. The fact that surjective isometries of any rearrangement-invariant function space have to preserve disjointness has been determined before. However dropping the assumption of surjectivity invalidates the general method. In this paper we use a differential technique.
