This is an announcement for the paper "Random sets of isomorphism of linear operators on Hilbert space" by Roman Vershynin. Abstract: This note deals with a problem of the probabilistic Ramsey theory. Given a linear operator T on a Hilbert space with an orthogonal basis, we define the isomorphic structure Sigma(T) as the family of all finite subsets of the basis such that T restricted to their span is a nice isomorphism. We give an optimal bound on the size of Sigma(T). This improves and extends in several ways the principle of restricted invertibility due to Bourgain and Tzafriri. With an appropriate notion of randomness, we obtain a randomized principle of restricted invertibility.

This is an announcement for the paper "A universal Lipschitz extension property of Gromov hyperbolic spaces" by A. Brudnyi and Yu. Brudnyi. Abstract: A metric space has the universal Lipschitz extension property if for each subspace S embedded quasi-isometrically into an arbitrary metric space M there exists a continuous linear extension of Banach-valued Lipschitz functions on S to those on all of M. We show that the finite direct sum of Gromov hyperbolic spaces of bounded geometry is universal in the sense of this definition.

This is an announcement for the paper "Polynomial bounds for large Bernoulli sections of $\ell_1^N$" by S. Artstein-Avidan, O. Friedland, V. Milman, and S. Sodin. Abstract: We prove a quantitative version of the bound on the smallest singular value of a Bernoulli covariance matrix (due to Bai and Yin). Then we use this bound, together with several recent developments, to show that the distance from a random (1-delta) n - dimensional section of l_1^n, realised as an image of a sign matrix, to an Euclidean ball is polynomial in 1/delta (and independent of n), with high probability.

This is an announcement for the paper "More mixed Tsirelson spaces that are not isomorphic to their modified versions" by Denny H. Leung and Wee-Kee Tang. Abstract: The class of mixed Tsirelson spaces is an important source of examples in the recent development of the structure theory of Banach spaces. The related class of modifed mixed Tsirelson spaces has also been well studied. In the present paper, we investigate the problem of comparing isomorphically the mixed Tsirelson space T[(S_n,\theta_{n})_{n=1}^{\infty}] and its modified version T_{M}[(S_{n},\theta_{n})_{n=1}^{\infty}]. It is shown that these spaces are not isomorphic for a large class of parameters (\theta_{n}).

Dear Friends, The Department of Mathematical Sciences of Kent State University is planning a Conference to Celebrate the Life and Work of Vladimir Gurariy. The meeting will take place on Friday-Saturday, March 10-11, 2006. There will be several components to this meeting which will only be able to touch on the contributions, in so many different areas, that Vladimir made. In particular, speakers at the meeting will include Per Enflo (Kent), Wolfgang Lusky (Paderborn), Mikhail Ostrovskii (New York), Peter Sarnak (Princeton), and Juan Seoane (Kent). We anticipate several other speakers, and we also invite participants to offer talks at this meeting. In addition, there will be a concert on Friday evening featuring performances of piano and vocal music composed by Vladimir. It will be a great help to the organizers if people could let us know of their intended participation. With thanks and best wishes, Richard Aron (aron at math.kent.edu), Joe Diestel (j_diestel at hotmail.com), Per Enflo (enflo at math.kent.edu), Victor Lomonosov (lomonoso at math.kent.edu), Andrew Tonge (tonge at math.kent.edu), and Artem Zvavitch (zvavitch at math.kent.edu). _______________________________________________ Banach mailing list Banach at math.okstate.edu http://mail.math.okstate.edu/mailman/listinfo/banach

This is an announcement for the paper "$H^{\infty}$ functional calculus and square functions on noncommutative $L^p$-spaces" by Marius Junge, Christian Le Merdy and Quanhua Xu. Abstract: In this work we investigate semigroups of operators acting on noncommutative $L^p$-spaces. We introduce noncommutative square functions and their connection to sectoriality, variants of Rademacher sectoriality, and $H^\infty$ functional calculus. We discuss several examples of noncommutative diffusion semigroups. This includes Schur multipliers, $q$-Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroups, and the noncommutative Poisson semigroup on free groups.

This is an announcement for the paper "A stochastic Datko-Pazy theorem" by Bernhard Haak, Jan van Neerven and Mark Veraar. Abstract: Let $H$ be a Hilbert space and $E$ a Banach space. In this note we present a sufficient condition for an operator $R: H\to E$ to be $\ga$--radonifying in terms of Riesz sequences in $H$. This result is applied to recover a result of Lutz Weis and the second named author on the $R$-boundedness of resolvents, which is used to obtain a Datko-Pazy type theorem for the stochastic Cauchy problem. We also present some perturbation results.

This is an announcement for the paper "Linearly ordered compacta and Banach spaces with a projectional resolution of the identity" by Wieslaw Kubis. Abstract: We construct a compact linearly ordered space $K$ of weight aleph one, such that the space $C(K)$ is not isomorphic to a Banach space with a projectional resolution of the identity, while on the other hand, $K$ is a continuous image of a Valdivia compact and every separable subspace of $C(K)$ is contained in a 1-complemented separable subspace. This answers two questions due to O. Kalenda and V. Montesinos.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the structure of asymptotic l_p spaces" by E. Odell, Th. Schlumprecht, and A. Zsak. Abstract: We prove that if X is a separable, reflexive space which is asymptotic l_p, then X embeds into a reflexive space Z having an asymptotic l_p finite-dimensional decomposition. This result leads to an intrinsic characterization of subspaces of spaces with an asymptotic l_p FDD. More general results of this type are also obtained.

This is an announcement for the paper "A Banach space dichotomy for quotients of subspaces" by Valentin Ferenczi. Abstract: A Banach space $X$ with a Schauder basis is defined to have the restricted quotient hereditarily indecomposable (QHI) property if $X/Y$ is hereditarily indecomposable (HI) for any infinite codimensional subspace $Y$ with a successive finite-dimensional decomposition on the basis of $X$. A reflexive space with the restricted QHI property is in particular HI, has HI dual, and is saturated with subspaces which are HI and have HI dual. The following dichotomy theorem is proved: any infinite dimensional Banach space contains a quotient of subspace which either has an unconditional basis, or has the restricted QHI property.

This is an announcement for the paper "Still more on norms of completely positive maps" by Stanislaw J. Szarek. Abstract: King and Ruskai asked whether the norm of a completely positive map acting between Schatten classes of operators is equal to that of its restriction to the real subspace of self-adjoint operators. Proofs have been promptly supplied by Watrous and Audenaert. Here we provide one more proof, in fact of a slightly more general fact, under the (slightly weaker) assumption of 2-positivity. The argument is elementary and self-contained.

This is an announcement for the paper "A remark on two duality relations" by Emanuel Milman. Abstract: We remark that an easy combination of two known results yields a positive answer, up to log(n) terms, to a duality conjecture that goes back to Pietsch. In particular, we show that for any two symmetric convex bodies K,T in R^n, denoting by N(K,T) the minimal number of translates of T needed to cover K, one has: N(K,T) <= N(T*,(C log(n))^{-1} K*)^{C log(n) loglog(n)}, where K*,T* are the polar bodies to K,T, respectively, and C > 1 is a universal constant. As a corollary, we observe a new duality result (up to log(n) terms) for Talagrand's \gamma_p functionals.

This is an announcement for the paper "A lower bound for the equilateral number of normed spaces" by Konrad J Swanepoel and Rafael Villa. Abstract: We show that if the Banach-Mazur distance between an n-dimensional normed space X and ell infinity is at most 3/2, then there exist n+1 equidistant points in X. By a well-known result of Alon and Milman, this implies that an arbitrary n-dimensional normed space admits at least e^{c sqrt(log n)} equidistant points, where c>0 is an absolute constant. We also show that there exist n equidistant points in spaces sufficiently close to n-dimensional ell p (1 < p < infinity).

This is an announcement for the paper "L_p moments of random vectors via majorizing measures" by Olivier Guedon and Mark Rudelson. Abstract: For a random vector X in R^n, we obtain bounds on the size of a sample, for which the empirical p-th moments of linear functionals are close to the exact ones uniformly on an n-dimensional convex body K. We prove an estimate for a general random vector and apply it to several problems arising in geometric functional analysis. In particular, we find a short Lewis type decomposition for any finite dimensional subspace of L_p. We also prove that for an isotropic log-concave random vector, we only need about n^{p/2} \log n sample points so that the empirical p-th moments of the linear functionals are almost isometrically the same as the exact ones. We obtain a concentration estimate for the empirical moments. The main ingredient of the proof is the construction of an appropriate majorizing measure to bound a certain Gaussian process.

This is an announcement for the paper "Norm equalities for operators" by Vladimir Kadets, Miguel Martin, and Javier Meri. Abstract: A Banach space $X$ has the Daugavet property if the Daugavet equation $\|\Id + T\|= 1 + \|T\|$ holds for every rank-one operator $T:X \longrightarrow X$. We show that the most natural attempts to introduce new properties by considering other norm equalities for operators (like $\|g(T)\|=f(\|T\|)$ for some functions $f$ and $g$) lead in fact to the Daugavet property of the space. On the other hand there are equations (for example $\|\Id + T\|= \|\Id - T\|$) that lead to new, strictly weaker properties of Banach spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "A note on subgaussian estimates for linear functionals on convex bodies" by Apostolos Giannopoulos, Alain Pajor, and Grigoris Paouris. Abstract: We give an alternative proof of a recent result of Klartag on the existence of almost subgaussian linear functionals on convex bodies. If $K$ is a convex body in ${\mathbb R}^n$ with volume one and center of mass at the origin, there exists $x\neq 0$ such that $$|\{ y\in K:\,|\langle y,x\rangle |\gr t\|\langle\cdot ,x\rangle\|_1\}|\ls\exp (-ct^2/\log^2(t+1))$$ for all $t\gr 1$, where $c>0$ is an absolute constant. The proof is based on the study of the $L_q$--centroid bodies of $K$. Analogous results hold true for general log-concave measures.

This is an announcement for the paper "Beyond Hirsch Conjecture: walks on random polytopes and smoothed complexity of the simplex method" by Roman Vershynin. Abstract: The smoothed analysis of algorithms is concerned with the expected running time of an algorithm under slight random perturbations of arbitrary inputs. Spielman and Teng proved that the shadow-vertex simplex method had polynomial smoothed complexity. On a slight random perturbation of arbitrary linear program, the simplex method finds the solution after a walk on polytope(s) with expected length polynomial in the number of constraints n, the number of variables d and the inverse standard deviation of the perturbation 1/sigma. We show that the length of walk in the simplex method is actually polylogarithmic in the number of constraints n. Spielman-Teng's bound on the walk was O(n^{86} d^{55} sigma^{-30}), up to logarithmic factors. We improve this to O(min(d^5 log^2(n), d^9 log^4(d), d^3 sigma^{-4})). This shows that the tight Hirsch conjecture n-d on the the length of walk on polytopes is not a limitation for the smoothed Linear Programming. Random perturbations create short paths between vertices. We propose a randomized phase-I for solving arbitrary linear programs. Instead of finding a vertex of a feasible set, we add a vertex at random to the feasible set. This does not affect the solution of the linear program with constant probability. So, in expectation it takes a constant number of independent trials until a correct solution is found. This overcomes one of the major difficulties of smoothed analysis of the simplex method -- one can now statistically decouple the walk from the smoothed linear program. This yields a much better reduction of the smoothed complexity to a geometric quantity -- the size of planar sections of random polytopes. We also improve upon the known estimates for that size.

Abstract: We show that a reflexive subspace of the predual of a von Neumann algebra embeds into a noncommutative Lp space for some p>1. This is a noncommutative version of Rosenthal's result for commutative Lp spaces. Similarly for 1 < q < 2, an infinite dimensional subspace X of a noncommutative Lq space either contains lq or embeds in Lp for some q < p < 2. The novelty in the noncommutative setting is a double sided change of density.

This is an announcement for the paper "On volume distribution in 2-convex bodies" by Boaz Klartag and Emanuel Milman. Abstract: We consider convex sets whose modulus of convexity is uniformly quadratic. First, we observe several interesting relations between different positions of such ``2-convex'' bodies; in particular, the isotropic position is a finite volume-ratio position for these bodies. Second, we prove that high dimensional 2-convex bodies posses one-dimensional marginals that are approximately Gaussian. Third, we improve for 1<p<=2 some bounds on the isotropic constant of quotients of subspaces of L_p and S_p^m, the Schatten Class space.

This is an announcement for the paper "On Gaussian marginals of uniformly convex bodies" by Emanuel Milman. Abstract: We show that many uniformly convex bodies have Gaussian marginals in most directions in a strong sense, which takes into account the tails of the distributions. These include uniformly convex bodies with power type 2, and power type p>2 with some additional type condition. In particular, all unit-balls of subspaces of L_p for 1<p<\infty have Gaussian marginals in this strong sense. Using the weaker Kolmogorov metric, we can extend our results to arbitrary uniformly convex bodies with power type p, for 2<=p<4. These results are obtained by putting the bodies in (surprisingly) non-isotropic positions and by a new concentration of volume observation for uniformly convex bodies.

This is an announcement for the paper "Some strongly bounded classes of Banach spaces" by Pandelis Dodos and Valentin Ferenczi. Abstract: We show that the classes of separable reflexive Banach spaces and of spaces with separable dual are strongly bounded. This gives a new proof of a recent result of E. Odell and Th. Schlumprecht, asserting that there exists a separable reflexive Banach space containing isomorphic copies of every separable uniformly convex Banach spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Decomposable quadratic forms in Banach spaces" by S.V. Konyagin and L. Vesely. Abstract: A continuous quadratic form on a real Banach space $X$ is called {\em decomposable} if it is the difference of two nonnegative (i.e., positively semidefinite) continuous quadratic forms. We prove that if $X$ belongs to a certain class of superreflexive Banach spaces, including all $L_p(\mu)$ spaces with $2\le p<\infty$, then each continuous quadratic form on $X$ is decomposable. On the other hand, on each infinite-dimensional $L_1(\mu)$ space there exists a continuous quadratic form $q$ that is not delta-convex (i.e., $q$ is not representable as difference of two continuous convex functions); in particular, $q$ is not decomposable. Related results concerning delta-convexity are proved and some open problems are stated.

This is an announcement for the paper "Sharp estimates of martingale transforms in higher dimensions and applications to the Ahlfors-Beurling operator" by Oliver Dragicevic, Stefanie Petermichl, and Alexander Volberg. Abstract: The main aspiration of this note is to construct several different Haar-type systems in euclidean spaces of higher dimensions and prove sharp Lp bounds for the corresponding martingale transforms. In dimension one this was a result of Burkholder. The motivation for working in this direction is the search for Lp estimates of the Ahlfors-Beurling operator.

This is an announcement for the paper "Generalized Jacobian for functions with infinite dimensional range and domain" by Zsolt P\'ales and Vera Zeidan. Abstract: In this paper, locally Lipschitz functions acting between infinite dimensional normed spaces are considered. When the range is a dual space and satisfies the Radon--Nikod\'ym property, Clarke's generalized Jacobian will be extended to this setting. Characterization and fundamental properties of the extended generalized Jacobian are established including the nonemptiness, the $\beta$-compactness, the $\beta$-upper semicontinuity, and a mean-value theorem. A connection with known notions is provided and chain rules are proved using key results developed. This included the vectorization and restriction theorem, and the extension theorem. Therefore, the generalized Jacobian introduced in this paper is proved to enjoy all the properties required of a derivative like-set.

This is an announcement for the paper "Shadow systems and volume of polar convex bodies" by Mathieu Meyer and Shlomo Reisner. Abstract: We prove that the reciprocal of the volume of the polar bodies, about the Santal\'o point, of a {\em shadow system\/} of convex bodies $K_t$, is a convex function of $t$. Thus extending to the non-symmetric case a result of Campi and Gronchi. The case that the reciprocal of the volume is an affine function of $t$ is also investigated and is characterized under certain conditions. We apply these results to prove exact reverse Santal\'o inequality for polytopes in $\rd{d}$ that have at most $d+3$ vertices.

This is an announcement for the paper "Coefficient quantization in Banach spaces" by S. J. Dilworth, E. Odell, Th. Schlumprecht, and Andras Zsak. Abstract: Let (e_i) be a dictionary for a separable Banach space X. We consider the problem of approximation by linear combinations of dictionary elements with quantized coefficients drawn usually from a `finite alphabet'. We investigate several approximation properties of this type and connect them to the Banach space geometry of X. The existence of a total minimal system with one of these properties, namely the coefficient quantization property, is shown to be equivalent to X containing c_0.

This is an announcement for the paper "Complex interpolation of compact operators mapping into the couple (FL^{\infty},FL_{1}^{\infty})" by Michael Cwikel and Svante Janson. Abstract: If (A_0,A_1) and (B_0,B_1) are Banach couples and a linear operator T from A_0 + A_1 to B_0 + B_1 maps A_0 compactly into B_0 and maps A_1 boundedly into B_1, does T necessarily also map [A_0,A_1]_s compactly into [B_0,B_1]_s for s in (0,1)? After 42 years this question is still not answered, not even in the case where T is also compact from A_1 to B_1. But affirmative answers are known for many special choices of (A_0,A_1) and (B_0,B_1). Furthermore it is known that it would suffice to resolve this question in the special case where (B_0,B_1) is the special couple (l^\infty(FL^\infty), l^\infty(FL^\infty_1)). Here FL^\infty is the space of all sequences which are Fourier coefficients of bounded functions, FL^\infty_1 is the weighted space of all sequences (a_n) such that (e^n a_n) is in FL^\infty, and thus B_0 and B_1 are the spaces of bounded sequences of elements in these spaces (i.e., they are spaces of doubly indexed sequences). We provide an affirmative answer to this question in the related but simpler case where (B_0,B_1) is the special couple (FL^\infty,FL^\infty_1).

This is an announcement for the paper "On unitary representability of topological groups" by Jorge Galindo. Abstract: We prove that the additive group $(E^\ast,\tau_k(E))$ of an $\mathscr{L}_\infty$-Banach space $E$, with the topology $\tau_k(E)$ of uniform convergence on compact subsets of $E$, is topologically isomorphic to a subgroup of the unitary group of some Hilbert space (is \emph{unitarily representable}). This is the same as proving that the topological group $(E^\ast,\tau_k(E))$ is uniformly homeomorphic to a subset of $\ell_2^\kappa$ for some $\kappa$. As an immediate consequence, preduals of commutative von Neumann algebras or duals of commutative $C^\ast$-algebras are unitarily representable in the topology of uniform convergence on compact subsets. The unitary representability of free locally convex spaces (and thus of free Abelian topological groups) on compact spaces, follows as well. The above facts cannot be extended to noncommutative von Neumann algebras or general Schwartz spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Composite cosine transforms" by E. Ournycheva and B. Rubin. Abstract: The cosine transforms of functions on the unit sphere play an important role in convex geometry, the Banach space theory, stochastic geometry and other areas. Their higher-rank generalization to Grassmann manifolds represents an interesting mathematical object useful for applications. We introduce more general integral transforms that reveal distinctive features of higher-rank objects in full generality. We call these new transforms the composite cosine transforms, by taking into account that their kernels agree with the composite power function of the cone of positive definite symmetric matrices. We show that injectivity of the composite cosine transforms can be studied using standard tools of the Fourier analysis on matrix spaces. In the framework of this approach, we introduce associated generalized zeta integrals and give new simple proofs to the relevant functional relations. Our technique is based on application of the higher-rank Radon transform on matrix spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Quotient normed cones" by Oscar Valero. Abstract: Given a normed cone $(X,p)$ and a subcone $Y,$ we construct and study the quotient normed cone $(X/Y,\tilde{p})$ generated by $Y$. In particular we characterize the bicompleteness of $(X/Y,\tilde{p})$ in terms of the bicompleteness of $(X,p),$ and prove that the dual quotient cone $((X/Y)^{*},\|\cdot \|_{\tilde{p},u})$ can be identified as a distinguished subcone of the dual cone $(X^{*},\|\cdot \|_{p,u})$. Furthermore, some parts of the theory are presented in the general setting of the space $CL(X,Y)$ of all continuous linear mappings from a normed cone $(X,p)$ to a normed cone $(Y,q),$ extending several well-known results related to open continuous linear mappings between normed linear spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Volume inequalities for isotropic measures" by Erwin Lutwak, Deane Yang, and Gaoyong Zhang. Abstract: A direct approach to Ball's simplex inequality is presented. This approach, which does not use the Brascamp-Lieb inequality, also gives Barthe's characterization of the simplex for Ball's inequality and extends it from discrete to arbitrary measures. It also yields the dual inequality, along with equality conditions, and it does both for arbitrary measures.

This is an announcement for the paper "Basic topological and geometric properties of Cesaro--Orlicz spaces" by Yunan Cui, Henryk Hudzik, Narin Petrot, Suthep Suantai and Alicja Szymaszkiewicz. Abstract: Necessary and sufficient conditions under which the Cesaro--Orlicz sequence space $\cfi$ is nontrivial are presented. It is proved that for the Luxemburg norm, Cesaro--Orlicz spaces $\cfi$ have the Fatou property. Consequently, the spaces are complete. It is also proved that the subspace of order continuous elements in $\cfi$ can be defined in two ways. Finally, criteria for strict monotonicity, uniform monotonicity and rotundity (= strict convexity) of the spaces $\cfi$ are given.

This is an announcement for the paper "On Gateaux differentiability of pointwise Lipschitz mappings" by Jakub Duda. Abstract: We prove that for every function $f:X\to Y$, where $X$ is a separable Banach space and $Y$ is a Banach space with RNP, there exists a set $A\in\tilde\mcA$ such that $f$ is Gateaux differentiable at all $x\in S(f)\setminus A$, where $S(f)$ is the set of points where $f$ is pointwise-Lipschitz. This improves a result of Bongiorno. As a corollary, we obtain that every $K$-monotone function on a separable Banach space is Hadamard differentiable outside of a set belonging to $\tilde\mcC$; this improves a result due to Borwein and Wang. Another corollary is that if $X$ is Asplund, $f:X\to\R$ cone monotone, $g:X\to\R$ continuous convex, then there exists a point in $X$, where $f$ is Hadamard differentiable and $g$ is Frechet differentiable.

This is an announcement for the paper "Infinite asymptotic games" by Christian Rosendal. Abstract: We study infinite asymptotic games in Banach spaces with an F.D.D. and prove that analytic games are determined by characterising precisely the conditions for the players to have winning strategies. These results are applied to characterise spaces embeddable into $\ell_p$ sums of finite dimensional spaces, extending results of Odell and Schlumprecht, and to study various notions of homogeneity of bases and Banach spaces. These results are related to questions of rapidity of subsequence extraction from normalised weakly null sequences.

This is an announcement for the paper "Uniform uncertainty principle for Bernoulli and subgaussian ensembles" by Shahar Mendelson, Alain Pajor and Nicole Tomczak-Jaegermann. Abstract: We present a simple solution to a question posed by Candes, Romberg and Tao on the uniform uncertainty principle for Bernoulli random matrices. More precisely, we show that a rectangular k*n random subgaussian matrix (with k < n) has the property that by arbitrarily extracting any m (with m < k) columns, the resulting submatrices are arbitrarily close to (multiples of) isometries of a Euclidean space. We obtain the optimal estimate for m as a function of k,n and the degree of "closeness" to an isometry. We also give a short and self-contained solution of the reconstruction problem for sparse vectors.

This is an announcement for the paper "Sublinear Higson corona and Lipschitz extensions" by M.Cencelj, J.Dydak, J.Smrekar, and A.Vavpetic. Abstract: The purpose of the paper is to characterize the dimension of sublinear Higson corona $\nu_L(X)$ of $X$ in terms of Lipschitz extensions of functions: Theorem: Suppose $(X,d)$ is a proper metric space. The dimension of the sublinear Higson corona $\nu_L(X)$ of $X$ is the smallest integer $m\ge 0$ with the following property: Any norm-preserving asymptotically Lipschitz function $f'\colon A\to \R^{m+1}$, $A\subset X$, extends to a norm-preserving asymptotically Lipschitz function $g'\colon X\to \R^{m+1}$. One should compare it to the result of Dranishnikov \cite{Dr1} who characterized the dimension of the Higson corona $\nu(X)$ of $X$ is the smallest integer $n\ge 0$ such that $\R^{n+1}$ is an absolute extensor of $X$ in the asymptotic category $\AAA$ (that means any proper asymptotically Lipschitz function $f\colon A\to \R^{n+1}$, $A$ closed in $X$, extends to a proper asymptotically Lipschitz function $f'\colon X\to \R^{n+1}$). \par In \cite{Dr1} Dranishnikov introduced the category $\tilde \AAA$ whose objects are pointed proper metric spaces $X$ and morphisms are asymptotically Lipschitz functions $f\colon X\to Y$ such that there are constants $b,c > 0$ satisfying $|f(x)|\ge c\cdot |x|-b$ for all $x\in X$. We show $\dim(\nu_L(X))\leq n$ if and only if $\R^{n+1}$ is an absolute extensor of $X$ in the category $\tilde\AAA$. \par As an application we reprove the following result of Dranishnikov and Smith \cite{DRS}: Theorem: Suppose $(X,d)$ is a proper metric space of finite asymptotic Assouad-Nagata dimension $\asdim_{AN}(X)$. If $X$ is cocompact and connected, then $\asdim_{AN}(X)$ equals the dimension of the sublinear Higson corona $\nu_L(X)$ of $X$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Classes of strictly singular operators and their products" by George Androulakis, Gleb Sirotkin, and Vladimir G. Troitsky. Abstract: V.~D. Milman proved in~\cite{Milman:70} that the product of two strictly singular operators on $L_p[0,1]$ ($1\le p<\infty$) or on $C[0,1]$ is compact. In this note we utilize Schreier families $\mathcal{S}_\xi$ in order to define the class of $\mathcal{S}_\xi $-strictly singular operators, and then we refine the technique of Milman to show that certain products of operators from this class are compact, under the assumption that the underlying Banach space has finitely many equivalence classes of Schreier-spreading sequences. Finally we define the class of ${\mathcal S}_\xi$-hereditarily indecomposable Banach spaces and we examine the operators on them.

This is an announcement for the paper "A problem of Kusner on equilateral sets" by Konrad J. Swanepoel. Abstract: R. B. Kusner [R. Guy, Amer. Math. Monthly 90 (1983), 196--199] asked whether a set of vectors in a d-dimensional real vector space such that the l-p distance between any pair is 1, has cardinality at most d+1. We show that this is true for p=4 and any d >= 1, and false for all 1<p<2 with d sufficiently large, depending on p. More generally we show that the maximum cardinality is at most $(2\lceil p/4\rceil-1)d+1$ if p is an even integer, and at least $(1+\epsilon_p)d$ if 1<p<2, where $\epsilon_p>0$ depends on p.

Abstract: We establish new functional versions of the Blaschke-Santal\'o inequality on the volume product of a convex body which generalize to the non-symmetric setting an inequality of K.~Ball and we give a simple proof of the case of equality. As a corollary, we get some inequalities for $\log$-concave functions and Legendre transforms which extend the recent result of Artstein, Klartag and Milman, with its equality case.

This is an announcement for the paper "Utility-based super-replication prices of unbounded contingent claims and duality of cones" by Frank Oertel and Mark Owen. Abstract: Consider a financial market in which an agent trades with utility-induced restrictions on wealth. We prove that the utility-based super-replication price of an unbounded (but sufficiently integrable) contingent claim is equal to the supremum of its discounted expectations under pricing measures with finite entropy. Central to our proof is the representation of a cone $C_\V$ of utility-based super-replicable contingent claims as the polar cone of the set of finite entropy separating measures. $C_\V$ is shown to be the closure, under a relevant weak topology, of the cone of all (sufficiently integrable) contingent claims that can be dominated by a zero-financed terminal wealth. As our approach shows, those terminal wealths need {\it not} necessarily stem from {\it admissible} trading strategies only. We investigate also the natural dual of this result, and show that the polar cone of $C_\V$ is the cone generated by separating measures with {\it finite loss-entropy}. For an agent whose utility function is unbounded from above, the set of pricing measures with finite loss-entropy can be slightly larger than the set of pricing measures with finite entropy. Indeed, we prove that the former set is the closure of the latter under a suitable weak topology. Finally, we show how our framework can be applied to another field of mathematical economics and how it sheds a different light on Farkas' Lemma and its infinite dimensional version there.

This is an announcement for the paper "On utility-based super-replication prices of contingent claims with unbounded payoffs" by Frank Oertel and Mark Owen. Abstract: Consider a financial market in which an agent trades with utility-induced restrictions on wealth. For a utility function which satisfies the condition of reasonable asymptotic elasticity at $-\infty$ we prove that the utility-based super-replication price of an unbounded (but sufficiently integrable) contingent claim is equal to the supremum of its discounted expectations under pricing measures with finite {\it loss-entropy}. For an agent whose utility function is unbounded from above, the set of pricing measures with finite loss-entropy can be slightly larger than the set of pricing measures with finite entropy. Indeed, the former set is the closure of the latter under a suitable weak topology. Central to our proof is the representation of a cone $C_U$ of utility-based super-replicable contingent claims as the polar cone to the set of finite loss-entropy pricing measures. The cone $C_U$ is defined as the closure, under a relevant weak topology, of the cone of all (sufficiently integrable) contingent claims that can be dominated by a zero-financed terminal wealth. We investigate also the natural dual of this result and show that the polar cone to $C_U$ is generated by those separating measures with finite loss-entropy. The full two-sided polarity we achieve between measures and contingent claims yields an economic justification for the use of the cone $C_U$, and an open question.

This is an announcement for the paper "The sum and chain rules for maximal monotone operators" by M.D. Voisei. Abstract: This paper is primarily concerned with the problem of maximality for the sum $A+B$ and composition $L^{*}ML$ in non-reflexive Banach space settings under qualifications constraints involving the domains of $A,B,M$. Here $X$, $Y$ are Banach spaces with duals $X^{*}$, $Y^{*}$, $A,B:X\rightrightarrows X^{*}$, $M:Y\rightrightarrows Y^{*}$ are multi-valued maximal monotone operators, and $L:X\rightarrow Y$ is linear bounded. Based on the Fitzpatrick function, new characterizations for the maximality of an operator as well as simpler proofs, improvements of previously known results, and several new results on the topic are presented.

This is an announcement for the paper "The little Grothendieck theorem and Khintchine inequalities for symmetric spaces of measurable operators" by Fran\c coise Lust-Piquard and Quanhua Xu. Abstract: We prove the little Grothendieck theorem for any 2-convex noncommutative symmetric space. Let $\M$ be a von Neumann algebra equipped with a normal faithful semifinite trace $\t$, and let $E$ be an r.i. space on $(0,\;\8)$. Let $E(\M)$ be the associated symmetric space of measurable operators. Then to any bounded linear map $T$ from $E(\M)$ into a Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ corresponds a positive norm one functional $f\in E_{(2)}(\M)^*$ such that $$\forall\; x\in E(\M)\quad \|T(x)\|^2\le K^2\,\|T\|^2 f(x^*x+xx^*),$$ where $E_{(2)}$ denotes the 2-concavification of $E$ and $K$ is a universal constant. As a consequence we obtain the noncommutative Khintchine inequalities for $E(\M)$ when $E$ is either 2-concave or 2-convex and $q$-concave for some $q<\8$. We apply these results to the study of Schur multipliers from a 2-convex unitary ideal into a 2-concave one.

This is an announcement for the paper "The complexity of classifying separable Banach spaces up to isomorphism" by Valentin Ferenczi, Alain Louveau, and Christian Rosendal. Abstract: It is proved that the relation of isomorphism between separable Banach spaces is a complete analytic equivalence relation, i.e., that any analytic equivalence relation Borel reduces to it. Thus, separable Banach spaces up to isomorphism provide complete invariants for a great number of mathematical structures up to their corresponding notion of isomorphism. The same is shown to hold for (1) complete separable metric spaces up to uniform homeomorphism, (2) separable Banach spaces up to Lipschitz isomorphism, and (3) up to (complemented) biembeddability, (4) Polish groups up to topological isomorphism, and (5) Schauder bases up to permutative equivalence. Some of the constructions rely on methods recently developed by S. Argyros and P. Dodos.

This is an announcement for the paper "Unconditionality with respect to orthonormal systems in noncommutative $L_2$ spaces" by Hun Hee Lee. Abstract: Orthonormal systems in commutative $L_2$ spaces can be used to classify Banach spaces. When the system is complete and satisfies certain norm condition the unconditionality with respect to the system characterizes Hilbert spaces. As a noncommutative analogue we introduce the notion of unconditionality of operator spaces with respect to orthonormal systems in noncommutative $L_2$ spaces and show that the unconditionality characterizes operator Hilbert spaces when the system is complete and satisfy certain norm condition. The proof of the main result heavily depends on free probabilistic tools such as contraction principle for $*$-free Haar unitaries, comparision of averages with respect to $*$-free Haar unitaries and $*$-free circular elements and $K$-covexity, type 2 and cotype 2 with respect to $*$-free circular elements.

This is an announcement for the paper "Dispersion of mass and the complexity of randomized geometric algorithms" by Luis Rademacher, Santosh Vempala. Abstract: How much can randomness help computation? Motivated by this general question and by volume computation, one of the few instances where randomness provably helps, we analyze a notion of dispersion and connect it to asymptotic convex geometry. We obtain a nearly quadratic lower bound on the complexity of randomized volume algorithms for convex bodies in R^n (the current best algorithm has complexity roughly n^4, conjectured to be n^3). Our main tools, dispersion of random determinants and dispersion of the length of a random point from a convex body, are of independent interest and applicable more generally; in particular, the latter is closely related to the variance hypothesis from convex geometry. This geometric dispersion also leads to lower bounds for matrix problems and property testing.

This is an announcement for the paper "Smooth norms and approximation in Banach spaces of the type C(K)" by Petr Hajek and Richard Haydon. Abstract: We prove two theorems about differentiable functions on the Banach space C(K), where K is compact. (i) If C(K) admits a non-trivial function of class C^m and of bounded support, then all continuous real-valued functions on C(K) may be uniformly approximated by functions of class C^m. (ii) If C(K) admits an equivalent norm with locally uniformly convex dual norm, then C(K) admits an equivalent norm which is of class C^m (except at 0).

This is an announcement for the paper "A c_0-saturated Banach space with no long unconditional basic sequences" by Jordi Lopez Abad and Stevo Todorcevic. Abstract: We present a Banach space $\mathfrak X$ with a Schauder basis of length $\omega\_1$ which is saturated by copies of $c\_0$ and such that for every closed decomposition of a closed subspace $X=X\_0\oplus X\_1$, either $X\_0$ or $X\_1$ has to be separable. This can be considered as the non-separable counterpart of the notion of hereditarily indecomposable space. Indeed, the subspaces of $\mathfrak X$ have ``few operators'' in the sense that every bounded operator $T:X \rightarrow \mathfrak{X}$ from a subspace $X$ of $\mathfrak{X}$ into $\mathfrak{X}$ is the sum of a multiple of the inclusion and a $\omega\_1$-singular operator, i.e., an operator $S$ which is not an isomorphism on any non-separable subspace of $X$. We also show that while $\mathfrak{X}$ is not distortable (being $c\_0$-saturated), it is arbitrarily $\omega\_1$-distortable in the sense that for every $\lambda>1$ there is an equivalent norm $\||\cdot \||$ on $\mathfrak{X}$ such that for every non-separable subspace $X$ of $\mathfrak{X}$ there are $x,y\in S\_X$ such that $\||\cdot \|| / \||\cdot \||\ge \la$.

Abstract: We introduce a flexible almost isometric version of the almost transitivity property of Banach spaces. With the help of this new notion we generalize to several directions a strong recent rotational characterization of Hilbert spaces due to Randrianantoanina. This chracterization is a partial answer to the classical Banach-Mazur rotation problem.

This is an announcement for the paper "Stochastic integration in UMD Banach spaces" by Jan van Neerven, Mark Veraar, Lutz Weis. Abstract: In this paper we construct a theory of stochastic integration of processes with values in $\calL(H,E)$, where $H$ is a separable Hilbert space and $E$ is a UMD Banach space. The integrator is an $H$-cylindrical Brownian motion. Our approach is based on a two-sided $L^p$-decoupling inequality for UMD spaces due to Garling, which is combined with the theory of stochastic integration of $\calL(H,E)$-valued functions introduced recently by two of the authors. We obtain various characterizations of the stochastic integral and prove versions of the It\^o isometry, the Burkholder-Davis-Gundy inequalities, and the representation theorem for Brownian martingales.

This is an announcement for the paper "Embedding vector-valued Besov spaces into spaces of $\gamma$-radonifying operators" by Nigel Kalton, Jan van Neerven, Mark Veraar, and Lutz Weis. Abstract: It is shown that a Banach space $E$ has type $p$ if and only for some (all) $d\ge 1$ the Besov space $B_{p,p}^{(\frac1p-\frac12)d}(\R^d;E)$ embeds into the space $\g(L^2(\R^d),E)$ of $\g$-radonifying operators $L^2(\R^d)\to E$. A similar result characterizing cotype $q$ is obtained. These results may be viewed as $E$-valued extensions of the classical Sobolev embedding theorems.

This is an announcement for the paper "From the Mahler conjecture to Gauss linking integrals" by Greg Kuperberg. Abstract: We establish a version of the bottleneck conjecture, which in turn implies a partial solution to the Mahler conjecture on the product $v(K) = (\Vol K)(\Vol K^\circ)$ of the volume of a symmetric convex body $K \in \R^n$ and its polar body $K^\circ$. The Mahler conjecture asserts that the Mahler volume $v(K)$ is minimized (non-uniquely) when $K$ is an $n$-cube. The bottleneck conjecture (in its least general form) asserts that the volume of a certain domain $K^\diamond \subset K \times K^\dual$ is minimized when $K$ is an ellipsoid. It implies the Mahler conjecture up to a factor of $(\pi/4)^n \gamma_n$, where $\gamma_n$ is a monotonic factor that begins at $4/\pi$ and converges to $\sqrt{2}$. This strengthen a result of Bourgain and Milman, who showed that there is a constant $c$ such that the Mahler conjecture is true up to a factor of $c^n$. The proof uses a version of the Gauss linking integral to obtain a constant lower bound on $\Vol K^\diamond$, with equality when $K$ is an ellipsoid. The proof applies to a more general bottleneck conjecture concerning the join of any two necks of complementary pseudospheres in an indefinite inner product space. Because the calculations are similar, we will also analyze traditional Gauss linking integrals in the sphere $S^{n-1}$ and in hyperbolic space $H^{n-1}$.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the best constants in noncommutative Khintchine-type inequalities" by Uffe Haagerup and Magdalena Musat. Abstract: We obtain new proofs with improved constants of the Khintchine-type inequality with matrix coefficients in two cases. The first case is the Pisier and Lust-Piquard noncommutative Khintchine inequality for $p=1$\,, where we obtain the sharp lower bound of $\frac1{\sqrt{2}}$ in the complex Gaussian case and for the sequence of functions $\{e^{i2^nt}\}_{n=1}^\infty$\,. The second case is Junge's recent Khintchine-type inequality for subspaces of the operator space $R\oplus C$\,, which he used to construct a cb-embedding of the operator Hilbert space $OH$ into the predual of a hyperfinite factor. Also in this case, we obtain a sharp lower bound of $\frac1{\sqrt{2}}$\,. As a consequence, it follows that any subspace of a quotient of $(R\oplus C)^*$ is cb-isomorphic to a subspace of the predual of the hyperfinite factor of type $III_1$\,, with cb-isomorphism constant $\leq \sqrt{2}$\,. In particular, the operator Hilbert space $OH$ has this property.

This is an announcement for the paper "Spaces of continuous functions over Dugundji compacta" by Taras Banakh and Wieslaw Kubis. Abstract: We show that for every Dugundji compact $K$ the Banach space $C(K)$ is $1$-Plichko and the space $P(K)$ of probability measures on $K$ is Valdivia compact. Combining this result with the existence of a non-Valdivia compact group, we answer a question of Kalenda.

This is an announcement for the paper "Uniformly gamma-radonifying families of operators and the linear stochastic Cauchy problem in Banach spaces" by Bernhard Haak and Jan van Neerven. Abstract: We introduce the notion of uniform $\gamma$--radonification of a family of operators, which unifies the notions of $R$--boundedness of a family of operators and $\gamma$--radonification of an individual operator. We study the the properties of uniformly $\gamma$--radonifying families of operators in detail and apply our results to the stochastic abstract Cauchy problem $$ dU(t) = AU(t)\,dt + B\,dW(t), \quad U(0)=0. $$ Here, $A$ is the generator of a strongly continuous semigroup of operators on a Banach space $E$, $B$ is a bounded linear operator from a separable Hilbert space $H$ into $E$, and $W_H$ is an $H$--cylindrical Brownian motion.

This is an announcement for the paper "An example of an almost greedy uniformly bounded orthonormal basis for $L_p([0,1])$" by Morten Nielsen. Abstract: We construct a uniformly bounded orthonormal almost greedy basis for $L_p([0,1])$, $1<p<\infty$. The example shows that it is not possible to extend Orlicz's theorem, stating that there are no uniformly bounded orthonormal unconditional bases for $L_p([0,1])$, $p\not=2$, to the class of almost greedy bases.

This is an announcement for the paper "Trigonometric quasi-greedy bases for $L^p(\bT;w)$" by Morten Nielsen. Abstract: We give a complete characterization of $2\pi$-periodic weights $w$ for which the usual trigonometric system forms a quasi-greedy basis for $L^p(\bT;w)$, i.e., bases for which simple thresholding approximants converge in norm. The characterization implies that this can happen only for $p=2$ and whenever the system forms a quasi-greedy basis, the basis must actually be a Riesz basis.

This is an announcement for the paper "Differentiating maps into L^1 and the geometry of BV functions" by Jeff Cheeger and Bruce Kleiner. Abstract: This is one of a series of papers examining the interplay between differentiation theory for Lipschitz maps, X--->V, and bi-Lipschitz nonembeddability, where X is a metric measure space and V is a Banach space. Here, we consider the case V=L^1 where differentiability fails. We establish another kind of differentiability for certain X, including R^n and H, the Heisenberg group with its Carnot-Cartheodory metric. It follows that H does not bi-Lipschitz embed into L^1, as conjectured by J. Lee and A. Naor. When combined with their work, this provides a natural counter example to the Goemans-Linial conjecture in theoretical computer science; the first such counterexample was found by Khot-Vishnoi. A key ingredient in the proof of our main theorem is a new connection between Lipschitz maps to L^1 and functions of bounded variation, which permits us to exploit recent work on the structure of BV functions on the Heisenberg group.

This is an announcement for the paper "A new proof of the paving property for uniformly bounded matrices" by Joel A. Tropp. Abstract: This note presents a new proof of an important result due to Bourgain and Tzafriri that provides a partial solution to the Kadison--Singer problem. The result shows that every unit-norm matrix whose entries are relatively small in comparison with its dimension can be paved by a partition of constant size. That is, the coordinates can be partitioned into a constant number of blocks so that the restriction of the matrix to each block of coordinates has norm less than one half. The original proof of Bourgain and Tzafriri involves a long, delicate calculation. The new proof relies on the systematic use of symmetrization and Khintchine inequalities to estimate the norm of some random matrices. The key new ideas are due to Rudelson.

This is an announcement for the paper "Spaces of functions with countably many discontinuities" by R Haydon, A Molto and J Orihuela. Abstract: Let $\Gamma$ be a Polish space and let $K$ be a separable and poointwise compact set of real-valued functions on $\Gamma$. It is shown that if each function in $K$ has only countably many discontinuities then $C(K)$ may be equipped with a $T_p$-lower semicontinuous and locally uniformly convex norm, equivalent to the supremum norm.
