This is an announcement for the paper "The Banach space $S$ is complementably minimal and subsequentially prime" by George Androulakis and Thomas Schlumprecht. Abstract: We first include a result of the second author showing that the Banach space $S$ is complementably minimal. We then show that every block sequence of the unit vector basis of $S$ has a subsequence which spans a space isomorphic to its square. By the Pe{\l}czy\'nski decomposition method it follows that every basic sequence in $S$ which spans a space complemented in $S$ has a subsequence which spans a space isomorphic to $S$ (i.e. $S$ is a subsequentially prime space).

We show that the VC dimension of a convex body governs its entropy.

A map f: A -> F is an s-nearisometry if |x-y|-s \le |fx-fy| \le |x-y|+s for all x,y in A. The article gives a survey on the stability problem: How well can an s-nearisometry be approximated by a true isometry? The first result on this problem was given by Hyers and Ulam in 1945 for surjective nearisometries between Hilbert spaces. The present article contains an addendum to the published paper, giving recent results on nearsurjective maps of Banach spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Lipschitz spaces and $M$-ideals" by Heiko Berninger and Dirk Werner. Abstract: For a metric space $(K,d)$ the Banach space $\Lip(K)$ consists of all scalar-valued bounded Lipschitz functions on $K$ with the norm $\|f\|_{L}=\max(\|f\|_{\infty},L(f))$, where $L(f)$ is the Lipschitz constant of $f$. The closed subspace $\lip(K)$ of $\Lip(K)$ contains all elements of $\Lip(K)$ satisfying the $\lip$-condition $\lim_{0<d(x,y)\to 0}|f(x)-f(y)|/d(x,y)=0$. For $K=([0,1],|\,{\cdot}\,|^{\alpha})$, $0<\alpha<1$, we prove that $\lip(K)$ is a proper $M$-ideal in a certain subspace of $\Lip(K)$ containing a copy of $\ell^{\infty}$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Grothendieck's Theorem for operator spaces" by Gilles Pisier and Dimitri Shlyakhtenko. Abstract: We prove several versions of Grothendieck's Theorem for completely bounded linear maps $T\colon \ E \to F^*$, when $E$ and $F$ are operator spaces. We prove that if $E,F$ are $C^*$-algebras, of which at least one is exact, then every completely bounded $T\colon \ E \to F^*$ can be factorized through the direct sum of the row and column Hilbert operator spaces. Equivalently $T$ can be decomposed as $T=T_r+T_c$ where $T_r$ (resp. $T_c$) factors completely boundedly through a row (resp. column) Hilbert operator space. This settles positively (at least partially) some earlier conjectures of Effros-Ruan and Blecher on the factorization of completely bounded bilinear forms on $C^*$-algebras. Moreover, our result holds more generally for any pair $E,F$ of ``exact" operator spaces. This yields a characterization of the completely bounded maps from a $C^*$-algebra (or from an exact operator space) to the operator Hilbert space OH. As a corollary we prove that, up to a complete isomorphism, the row and column Hilbert operator spaces and their direct sums are the only operator spaces $E$ such that both $E$ and its dual $E^*$ are exact. We also characterize the Schur multipliers which are completely bounded from the space of compact operators to the trace class.

This is an announcement for the paper "A note on the method of minimal vectors" by George Androulakis. Abstract: The methods of "minimal vectors" were introduced by Ansari and Enflo and strengthened by Pearcy, in order to prove the existence of hyperinvariant subspaces for certain operators on Hilbert space. In this note we present the method of minimal vectors for operators on super-reflexive Banach spaces and we give a new sufficient condition for the existence of hyperinvariant subspaces of certain operators on these spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Uniformly convex operators and martingale type" by J Wenzel. Abstract: The concept of uniform convexity of a Banach space was generalized to linear operators between Banach spaces and studied by Beauzamy [1976]. Under this generalization, a Banach space X is uniformly convex if and only if its identity map I_X is. Pisier showed that uniformly convex Banach spaces have martingale type p for some p>1. We show that this fact is in general not true for linear operators. To remedy the situation, we introduce the new concept of martingale subtype and show, that it is equivalent, also in the operator case, to the existence of an equivalent uniformly convex norm on X. In the case of identity maps it is also equivalent to having martingale type p for some p>1. Our main method is to use sequences of ideal norms defined on the class of all linear operators and to study the factorization of the finite summation operators. There is a certain analogy with the theory of Rademacher type.

This is an announcement for the paper "The average distance property of classical Banach spaces II" by Aicke Hinrichs and J. Wenzel. Abstract: A Banach space X has the average distance property (ADP) if there exists a unique real number r such that for each positive integer n and all x_1,...,x_n in the unit sphere of X there is some x in the unit sphere of X such that 1/n \sum_{k=1}^n ||x_k-x|| = r. We show that l_p does not have the average distance property if p>2. This completes the study of the ADP for l_p spaces.

Abstract: We establish an abstract critical point theorem for locally Lipschitz functionals that does not require any compactness condition of Palais-Smale type. It generalizes and unifies three other critical point theorems established in [Jabri-Moussaoui] for $C^{1}$-functionals under slightly stronger assumptions. Our approach uses continuous selections of multivalued mappings.

This is an announcement for the paper "A nonsmooth variational approach to differential problems. A case study of nonresonance under the first eigenvalue for a strongly nonlinear elliptic problem" by Youssef Jabri. Abstract: We adapt a technique of nonsmooth critical point theory developed by Degiovanni-Zani for a semilinear problem involving the Laplacian to the the case of the $p$-Laplacian. We suppose only coercivity conditions on the potential and impose no growth condition of the nonlinearity. The coercivity is obtained using similar nonresonance conditions to [Mawhin-Ward-Willem] and to [Landesman-Lazer] in two different results and using some comparison functions and comparison spaces in a third one. It is also shown that neither of the three theorems implies the two others.

This is an announcement for the paper "Set theory and cyclic vectors" by Nik Weaver. Abstract: Let H be a separable, infinite dimensional Hilbert space and let S be a countable subset of H. Then most positive operators on H have the property that every nonzero vector in the span of S is cyclic, in the sense that the set of operators in the positive part of the unit ball of B(H) with this property is comeager for the strong operator topology. Suppose \kappa is a regular cardinal such that \kappa \geq \omega_1 and 2^{<\kappa} = \kappa. Then it is relatively consistent with ZFC that 2^\omega = \kappa and for any subset S \subset H of cardinality less than \kappa the set of positive operators in the unit ball of B(H) for which every nonzero vector in the span of S is cyclic is comeager for the strong operator topology.

This is an announcement for the paper "Hahn-Banach operators" by M.I. Ostrovskii. Abstract: We consider real spaces only. Definition. An operator $T:X\to Y$ between Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ is called a Hahn-Banach operator if for every isometric embedding of the space $X$ into a Banach space $Z$ there exists a norm-preserving extension $\tilde T$ of $T$ to $Z$. A geometric property of Hahn-Banach operators of finite rank acting between finite-dimensional normed spaces is found. This property is used to characterize pairs of finite-dimensional normed spaces $(X,Y)$ such that there exists a Hahn-Banach operator $T:X\to Y$ of rank $k$. The latter result is a generalization of a recent result due to B.L. Chalmers and B. Shekhtman.

This is an announcement for the paper "Projections in normed linear spaces and sufficient enlargements" by M. I. Ostrovskii. Abstract: Definition. A symmetric with respect to 0 bounded closed convex set A in a finite dimensional normed space X is called a sufficient enlargement for X (or of B(X)) if for arbitrary isometric embedding of X into a Banach space Y there exists a projection P:Y\to X such that P(B(Y)) is a subset of A (by B(X) we denote the unit ball). The notion of sufficient enlargement is implicit in the paper: B.Grunbaum, Projection constants, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 95 (1960) 451--465. It was explicilty introduced by the author in: M.I.Ostrovskii, Generalization of projection constants: sufficient enlargements, Extracta Math., 11 (1996), 466--474. The main purpose of the present paper is to continue investigation of sufficient enlargements started in the papers cited above. In particular the author investigate sufficient enlargements whose support functions are in some directions close to those of the unit ball of the space, sufficient enlargements of minimal volume, sufficient enlargements for euclidean spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Weak* sequential closures in Banach space theory and their applications" by M. I. Ostrovskii. Abstract: Let X be a Banach space. Given a subset A of the dual space X* denote by $A_{(1)}$ the weak* sequential closure of A, i.e., the set of all limits of weak*-convergent sequences in A. The study of weak* sequential closures of linear subspaces of the duals of separable Banach spaces was initiated by S.Banach. The first results of this study were presented in the appendix to his book "Theorie des operations lineaires" (1932). It is natural to suppose that the reason for studying weak* sequential closures by S. Banach and S. Mazurkiewicz was the lack of acquaintance of S. Banach and his school with concepts of general topology. Although the name "General topology" was introduced later, the subject did already existed. F. Hausdorff introduced topological spaces in his book published in 1914, Alexandroff-Urysohn (1924) studied compactness, and A.Tychonoff published his theorem on compactness of products in 1929. Also J.von Neumann introduced the notion of a weak topology in his paper published in 1929. Using the notions of a topological space and the Tychonoff theorem, more elegant treatment of weak and weak* topologies, and the duality of Banach spaces was developed by L.Alaoglu, N.Bourbaki and S.Kakutani (1938-1940). Nevertheless, an "old-fashioned" treatment of S.Banach still attracts attention. It happens because the "sequential" approach is very useful in several contexts. The main purpose of the paper is to describe the history of this direction of research and to give an up-to-date (1999) survey of the results on weak* sequential closures and their applications.

This is an announcement for the paper "Uniform approximation of continuous mappings by smooth mappings with no critical points on Hilbert manifolds" by Daniel Azagra and Manuel Cepedello Boiso. Abstract: We prove that every continuous mapping from a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $X$ into $\mathbb{R}^{m}$ can be uniformly approximated by $C^\infty$ smooth mappings {\em with no critical points}. This kind of result can be regarded as a sort of very strong approximate version of the Morse-Sard theorem. Some consequences of the main theorem are as follows. Every two disjoint closed subsets of $X$ can be separated by a one-codimensional smooth manifold which is a level set of a smooth function with no critical points; this fact may be viewed as a nonlinear analogue of the geometrical version of the Hahn-Banach theorem. In particular, every closed set in $X$ can be uniformly approximated by open sets whose boundaries are $C^\infty$ smooth one-codimensional submanifolds of $X$. Finally, since every Hilbert manifold is diffeomorphic to an open subset of the Hilbert space, all of these results still hold if one replaces the Hilbert space $X$ with any smooth manifold $M$ modelled on $X$.

This is an announcement for the paper "A solution of one problem of Lindenstrauss and Rosenthal on subspace homogeneous and quotient homogeneous Banach spaces with application to the approximation problem and to the Schroeder - Bernstein problem" by Eugene Tokarev. Abstract: In article is constructed a wide couple of pairwice non-isomorphic separable superreflexive Banach spaces E that are subspace homogeneous. Their conjugates are quotient homogeneous. None of this couple neither isomorphic to its Cartesian square nor has the approximation property. At the same time, any such E is isomorphic to E+ E+ W for some Banach space W and, hence, solves the Schroeder - Bernstein problem.

This is an announcement for the paper "On sub B-convex Banach spaces" by Eugene Tokarev. Abstract: In the article is introduced a new class of Banach spaces that are called sub B-convex. Namely, a Banach space X is said to be sub B-convex if it may be represented as a direct sum l_1+ W, where W is B-convex. It will be shown that any separable sub B-convex Banach space X may be almost isometrically embedded in a separable Banach space G(X) of the same cotype as X, which has a series of properties. Namely, G(X) is an approximate envelope, i.e. any separable Banach space which is finitely representable in G(X) may be almost isometrically embedded into G(X); G(X)is almost isotropic; G(X) is existentially closed in a class of all spaces that are finitely equivalent to it; the conjugate space to G(X) is of cotype 2; every operator from its conjugate into the Hilbert space is absolutely summing; every projection P in G(X) of finite rank has a norm that infinitely growth with the dimension of its range. If, in addition, X is of cotype 2, then G(X) has more impressive properties: every operator from G(X) into the Hilbert space is absolutely summing; the injective and projective tensor products of G(X) by itself are identical.

This is an announcement for the paper "An example of a Banach space with a subsymmetric basis, which has the hereditarily approximation property" by Eugene Tokarev. Abstract: W.B. Johnson has constructed a series of Banach spaces non isomorphic to the Hilbert one that have the hereditarily approximation property (shortly hereditarily AP): all their subspaces also have the AP. All these examples were ''sufficiently'' non-symmetric and this fact allows Johnson to ask: whether there exists any Banach space $X$ with symmetric (or, at least, subsymmetric) basis, distinct from the Hilbert space such that each its subspace has the AP? In this paper is shown that there is a Banach space with a subsymmetric basis (non-equivalent to any symmetric one), which enjoys the hereditarily AP.

Abstract: To describe a set of functions, which forms a reflexive subspace B of the classical Banach space L a special function that characterizes their average integral growth is introduced. It is shown that this function essentially depends on the geometry of B. By the way, one question of la Vallee Poussin is answered. Also a short proof of the known result about the existence of an uncomplemented subspace isomorphic to the Hilbert space in every Lebesgue - Riesz space Lp (1<p<2) is obtained.

This is an announcement for the paper "On factorization of operators between Banach spaces" by Eugene Tokarev. Abstract: A finite-dimensional analogue of the known Gordon-Lewis constant of a Banach space X is introduced; in its definition are used only finite rank operators. It is shown that there exist Banach spaces such that the standard Gordon-Lewis constant of X is finite and its finite-dimensional analogue GLfin(X) is infinite. Moreover, for any Banach space X of cotype 2 its finite-dimensional constant GLfin(X) is finite too.

This is an announcement for the paper "On properties of symmetric Banach function spaces and Peetre's interpolation spaces" by Eugene Tokarev. Abstract: A set of all symmetric Banach function spaces defined on [0,1] is equipped with the partial order by the relation of continuous inclusion. Properties of symmetric spaces, which do not depend of their position in the ordered structure, are studied. With the help of the J. Peetre's interpolation scheme it is shown that for any pair of symmetric spaces E, F such that F is absolutely continuously included in E there exists an intermediate (so called, Peetre's) space K(E,F;W), where W is a space with an unconditional basis, that is reflexive or, respectively, weakly sequentially complete provided W also is reflexive or, respectively, weakly sequentially complete.

This is an announcement for the paper "The operator Hilbert space $OH$ and type III von Neumann algebras" by Gilles Pisier. Abstract: We prove that the operator Hilbert space $OH$ does not embed completely isomorphically into the predual of a semi-finite von~Neumann algebra. This complements Junge's recent result that it admits such an embedding in the non semi-finite case.

This is an announcement for the paper "The optimal order for the p-th moment of sums of independent random variables with respect to symmetric norms and related combinatorial estimates" by Marius Junge. Abstract: We calculate the p-the moment of the sum of n independent random variables with respect to symmetric norm in R^n. The order of growth for upper bound p/ln p obtained in ths estimate is optimal. The result extends to generalized Lorentz spaces l_{f,w} under mild assumptions on f. Indeed, the key combinatorial estimate is obtained for the weak l_1 (l_{1,infinity})-norm. Similar results have been obtained independently by Montgomery-Smith using different techniques and avoiding the combinatorial estimate.

This is an announcement for the paper "Measures of non-compactness of operators on Banach lattices" by Vladimir G. Troitsky. Abstract: Andreu et al [2] and Sadovskii [11] used representation spaces to study measures of non-compactness and spectral radii of operators on Banach lattices. In this paper, we develop representation spaces based on the nonstandard hull construction (which is equivalent to the ultrapower construction). As a particular application, we present a simple proof and some extensions of the main result of de Pagter and Schep [6] on the monotonicity of the measure of non-compactness and the spectral radius of AM-compact operators. We also use the representation spaces to characterize d-convergence and discuss the relationship between d-convergence and the measures of non-compactness.

This is an announcement for the paper "Complemented subspaces of L_p determined by partitions and weights" by Dale Alspach and Simei Tong. Abstract: Many of the known complemented subspaces of L_p have realizations as sequence spaces. In this paper a systematic approach to defining these spaces which uses partitions and weights is introduced. This approach gives a unified description of many well-known complemented subspaces of L_p. It is proved that the class of spaces with such norms is stable under (p,2) sums. By introducing the notion of an envelope norm, we obtain a necessary condition for a Banach sequence space with norm given by partitions and weights to be isomorphic to a subspace of L_p. Using this we define a space Y_n with norm given by partitions and weights with distance to any subspace of L_p growing with n. This allows us to construct an example of a Banach space with norm given by partitions and weights which is not isomorphic to a subspace of L_p.

This is an announcement for the paper "Complete isometries - an illustration of noncommutative functional analysis" by David P. Blecher and Damon M. Hay. Abstract: This article, addressed to a general audience of functional analysts, is intended to be an illustration of a few basic principles from `noncommutative functional analysis', more specifically the new field of {\em operator spaces.} In our illustration we show how the classical characterization of (possibly non-surjective) isometries between function algebras generalizes to operator algebras. We give some variants of this characterization, and a new proof which has some advantages.

This is an announcement for the paper "Power-bounded operators and related norm estimates" by Nigel Kalton, Stephen Montgomery-Smith, Krzysztof Oleszkiewicz and Yuri Tomilov. Abstract: We consider whether L = limsup_{n to infty} n ||T^{n+1}-T^n|| < infty implies that the operator T is power bounded. We show that this is so if L<1/e, but it does not necessarily hold if L=1/e. As part of our methods, we improve a result of Esterle, showing that if sigma(T) = {1} and T != I, then liminf_{n to infty} n ||T^{n+1}-T^n|| >= 1/e. The constant 1/e is sharp. Finally we describe a way to create many generalizations of Esterle's result, and also give many conditions on an operator which imply that its norm is equal to its spectral radius.

This is an announcement for the paper "Quantum normal families: normal families of holomorphic functions and mappings on a Banach space" by Kang-Tae Kim and Steven Krantz. Abstract: The authors lay the foundations for the study of normal families of holomorphic functions and mappings on an infinite-dimensional normed linear space. Characterizations of normal families, in terms of value distribution, spherical derivatives, and other geometric properties are derived. Montel-type theorems are established. A number of different topologies on spaces of holomorphic mappings are considered. Theorems about normal families are formulated and proved in the language of these various topologies. Normal functions are also introduced. Characterizations in terms of automorphisms and also in terms of invariant derivatives are presented.
