This is an announcement for the paper "Local automorphisms of the Hilbert ball" by Bernhard Lamel. Abstract: We prove an analogue of Alexander's Theorem for holomorphic mappings of the unit ball in a complex Hilbert space: Every holomorphic mapping which takes a piece of the boundary of the unit ball into the boundary of the unit ball and whose differential at some point of this boundary is onto is the restriction of an automorphism of the ball. We also show that it is enough to assume that the mapping is only Gateaux-holomorphic.

This is an announcement for the paper "On weakly extremal structures in Banach spaces" by J. Talponen. Abstract: This paper deals with the interplay of the geometry of the norm and the weak topology in Banach spaces. Both dual and intrinsic connections between weak forms of rotundity and smoothness ared discussed. Weakly exposed points, weakly locally uniformly rotund spaces, smoothness, duality and the interplay of all the above are studied. An example of a Banach space, which is midpoint locally uniformly rotund but not weakly locally uniformly rotund is given.

This is an announcement for the paper "The lower dimensional Busemann-Petty problem for bodies with the generalized axial symmetry" by Boris Rubin. Abstract: The lower dimensional Busemann-Petty problem asks, whether $n$-dimensional origin-symmetric convex bodies, having smaller $i$-dimensional sections, necessarily have smaller volumes. For $i=1$, the affirmative answer is obvious. For $i>3$, the answer is negative. For $i=2$ and $i=3$, the problem is still open, except when the body with smaller sections is a body of revolution. In this case the answer is affirmative. The paper contains a complete solution to the problem in the more general situation, when the body with smaller sections is invariant under orthogonal transformations preserving coordinate subspaces $R^{l}$ and $R^{n-l}$ of $R^{n}$ for arbitrary fixed $0<l<n$.

Abstract: This paper deals with the following types of problems: Assume a Banach space $X$ has some property (P). Can it be embedded into some Banach space $Z$ with a finite dimensional decomposition having property (P), or more generally, having a property related to (P)? Secondly, given a class of Banach spaces, does there exist a Banach space in this class, or in a closely related one, which is universal for this class?

This is an announcement for the paper "On the ``Multiple of the Inclusion Plus Compact'' problem" by George Androulakis and Frank Sanacory. Abstract: The ``multiple of the inclusion plus compact problem'' which was posed by T.W.~Gowers in 1996 and Th.~Schlumprecht in 2003, asks whether for every infinite dimensional Banach space $X$ there exists a closed subspace $Y$ of $X$ and a bounded linear operator from $Y$ to $X$ which is not a compact perturbation of a multiple of the inclusion map from $Y$ to $X$. We give sufficient conditions on the spreading models of seminormalized basic sequences of a Banach space $X$ which guarantee that the ``multiple of the inclusion plus compact'' problem has an affirmative answer for $X$. Our results strengthen a previous result of the first named author, E.~Odell, Th.~Schlumprecht and N.~Tomczak-Jaegermann as well as a result of Th.~Schlumprecht. We give an example of a Hereditarily Indecomposable Banach space where our results apply. For the proof of our main result we use an extension of E.~Odell's Schreier unconditionality result for arrays.

This is an announcement for the paper "Rosenthal operator spaces" by Marius Junge, Niels Jorgen Nielsen and Timur Oikhberg. Abstract: In 1969 Lindenstrauss and Rosenthal showed that if a Banach space is isomorphic to a complemented subspace of an L_p-space, then it is either a script L_p-space or isomorphic to a Hilbert space. This is the motivation of this paper where we study non--Hilbertian complemented operator subspaces of non commutative L_p-spaces and show that this class is much richer than in the commutative case. We investigate the local properties of some new classes of operator spaces for every $2<p< \infty$ which can be considered as operator space analogues of the Rosenthal sequence spaces from Banach space theory, constructed in 1970. Under the usual conditions on the defining sequence sigma we prove that most of these spaces are operator script L_p-spaces, not completely isomorphic to previously known such spaces. However it turns out that some column and row versions of our spaces are not operator script L_p-spaces and have a rather complicated local structure which implies that the Lindenstrauss--Rosenthal alternative does not carry over to the non-commutative case.

This is an announcement for the paper "A solution to a question of A. Koldobsky" by Emanuel Milman. Abstract: In 2000, A. Koldobsky asked whether two types of generalizations of the notion of an intersection-body, are in fact equivalent. The structures of these two types of generalized intersection-bodies have been studied by the author in [http://www.arxiv.org/math.MG/0512058], providing substantial positive evidence for a positive answer to this question. The purpose of this note is to construct a counter-example, which provides a surprising negative answer to this question in a strong sense. This negative answer implies the existence of a non-trivial non-negative function in the range of the spherical Radon transform.

Abstract: Properties of Lipschitz and d.c. surfaces of finite codimension in a Banach space, and properties of generated $\sigma$-ideals are studied. These $\sigma$-ideals naturally appear in the differentiation theory and in the abstract approximation theory. Using these properties, we improve an unpublished result of M. Heisler which gives an alternative proof of a result of D. Preiss on singular points of convex functions.

This is an announcement for the paper "A characterization of subspaces and quotients of reflexive Banach spaces with unconditional basis" by W. B. Johnson and Bentuo Zheng. Abstract: We prove that the dual or any quotient of a separable reflexive Banach space with the unconditional tree property has the unconditional tree property. Then we prove that a separable reflexive Banach space with the unconditional tree property embeds into a reflexive Banach space with an unconditional basis. This solves several long standing open problems. In particular, it yields that a quotient of a reflexive Banach space with an unconditional finite dimensional decomposition embeds into a reflexive Banach space with an unconditional basis.

This is an announcement for the paper "A decomposition theorem for frames and the Feichtinger conjecture" by Peter G. Casazza, Gitta Kutyniok, Darrin Speegle and Janet C. Tremain. Abstract: In this paper we study the Feichtinger Conjecture in frame theory, which was recently shown to be equivalent to the 1959 Kadison-Singer Problem in $C^{*}$-Algebras. We will show that every bounded Bessel sequence can be decomposed into two subsets each of which is an arbitrarily small perturbation of a sequence with a finite orthogonal decomposition. This construction is then used to answer two open problems concerning the Feichtinger Conjecture: 1. The Feichtinger Conjecture is equivalent to the conjecture that every unit norm Bessel sequence is a finite union of frame sequences. 2. Every unit norm Bessel sequence is a finite union of sets each of which is $\omega$-independent for $\ell_2$-sequences.

This is an announcement for the paper "Minimality properties of Tsirelson type spaces" by Denka Kutzarova, Denny Leung, Antonis Manoussakis and Wee Kee Tang. Abstract: In this paper, we study minimality properties of partly modified mixed Tsirelson spaces. A Banach space with a normalized basis (e_k) is said to be subsequentially minimal if for every normalized block basis (x_k) of (e_k), there is a further block (y_k) of (x_k) such that (y_k) is equivalent to a subsequence of (e_k). Sufficient conditions are given for a partly modified mixed Tsirelson space to be subsequentially minimal and connections with Bourgain's \ell^{1}-index are established. It is also shown that a large class of mixed Tsirelson spaces fails to be subsequentially minimal in a strong sense.

This is an announcement for the paper "Poincar\'{e} type inequalities on the discrete cube and in the CAR algebra" by Limor Ben-Efraim and Francoise Lust-Piquard. Abstract: We prove Lp Poincare inequalities for functions on the discrete cube and their discrete gradient. We thus recover an exponential inequality and the concentration phenomenon for the uniform probability on the cube first obtained by Bobkov and Gotze. Inequalities involving the discrete gradient and powers of the discrete Laplacian are also considered, for the Lp norm or more general ones. Similar results hold true, replacing functions on the cube by elements of the CAR algebra and considering the annihilation operators and the number operator.

This is an announcement for the paper "The weak Banach-Saks Property of the Space $(L_\mu^p)^m$" by Zhenglu Jiang and Xiaoyong Fu. Abstract: In this paper we show the weak Banach-Saks property of the Banach vector space $(L_\mu^p)^m$ generated by $m$ $L_\mu^p$-spaces for $1\leq p<+\infty,$ where $m$ is any given natural number. When $m=1,$ this is the famous Banach-Saks-Szlenk theorem. By use of this property, we also present inequalities for integrals of functions that are the composition of nonnegative continuous convex functions on a convex set of a vector space ${\bf R}^m$ and vector-valued functions in a weakly compact subset of the space $(L_\mu^p)^m$ for $1\leq p<+\infty$ and inequalities when these vector-valued functions are in a weakly* compact subset of the product space $(L_\mu^\infty)^m$ generated by $m$ $L_\mu^\infty$-spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "The maximum modulus of a trigonometric trinomial" by Stefan Neuwirth. Abstract: Let Lambda be a set of three integers and let C_Lambda be the space of 2pi-periodic functions with spectrum in Lambda endowed with the maximum modulus norm. We isolate the maximum modulus points x of trigonometric trinomials T in C_Lambda and prove that x is unique unless |T| has an axis of symmetry. This permits to compute the exposed and the extreme points of the unit ball of C_Lambda, to describe how the maximum modulus of T varies with respect to the arguments of its Fourier coefficients and to compute the norm of unimodular relative Fourier multipliers on C_Lambda. We obtain in particular the Sidon constant of Lambda.

This is an announcement for the paper "The Littlewood-Offord Problem and invertibility of random matrices" by Mark Rudelson and Roman Vershynin. Abstract: We prove two basic conjectures on the distribution of the smallest singular value of random n times n matrices with independent entries. Under minimal moment assumptions, we show that the smallest singular value is of order n^{-1/2}, which is optimal for Gaussian matrices. Moreover, we give a optimal estimate on the tail probability. This comes as a consequence of a new and essentially sharp estimate in the Littlewood-Offord problem: for i.i.d. random variables X_k and real numbers a_k, determine the probability P that the sum of a_k X_k lies near some number v. For arbitrary coefficients a_k of the same order of magnitude, we show that they essentially lie in an arithmetic progression of length 1/p.

This is an announcement for the paper "Khinchin's inequality, Dunford--Pettis and compact operators on the space $\pmb{C([0,1],X)}$" by Dumitru Popa. Abstract: We prove that if $X,Y$ are Banach spaces, $\Omega$ a compact Hausdorff space and $U\hbox{\rm :}\ C(\Omega,X)\rightarrow Y$ is a bounded linear operator, and if $U$ is a Dunford--Pettis operator the range of the representing measure $G(\Sigma) \subseteq DP(X,Y)$ is an uniformly Dunford--Pettis family of operators and $\|G\|$ is continuous at $\emptyset$. As applications of this result we give necessary and/or sufficient conditions that some bounded linear operators on the space $C([0,1],X)$ with values in $c_{0}$ or $l_{p}$, ($1\leq p<\infty$) be Dunford--Pettis and/or compact operators, in which, Khinchin's inequality plays an important role.

This is an announcement for the paper "Intersection bodies and generalized cosine transforms" by Boris Rubin. Abstract: Intersection bodies represent a remarkable class of geometric objects associated with sections of star bodies and invoking Radon transforms, generalized cosine transforms, and the relevant Fourier analysis. We review some known facts and give them new proofs. The main focus is interrelation between generalized cosine transforms of different kinds and their application to investigation of certain family of intersection bodies, which we call lambda-intersection bodies. The latter include k-intersection bodies (in the sense of A. Koldobsky) and unit balls of finite-dimensional subspaces of $L_p$-spaces. In particular, we show that restriction of the spherical Radon transforms and the generalized cosine transforms onto lower dimensional subspaces preserves their integral-geometric structure. We apply this result to the study of sections of lambda-intersection bodies. A number of new characterizations of this class of bodies and examples are given.

This is an announcement for the paper "Examples and counterexamples of type I isometric shifts" by Jesus Araujo. Abstract: We provide examples of nonseparable spaces $X$ for which $C(X)$ admits an isometric shift of type I, which solves in the negative a problem proposed by Gutek {\em et al.} (J. Funct. Anal. {\bf 101} (1991), 97-119). We also give two independent methods for obtaining separable examples. The first one allows us in particular to construct examples with infinitely many nonhomeomorphic components in a subset of the Hilbert space $\ell^2$. The second one applies for instance to sequences adjoined to any $n$-dimensional compact manifold (for $n \ge 2$) or to the Sierpi\'nski curve. The combination of both techniques lead to different examples involving a convergent sequence adjoined to the Cantor set: one method for the case when the sequence converges to a point in the Cantor set, and the other one for the case when it converges outside.

This is an announcement for the paper "Even infinite dimensional real Banach spaces" by Valentin Ferenczi and Eloi Medina Galego. Abstract: This article is a continuation of a paper of the first author \cite{F} about complex structures on real Banach spaces. We define a notion of even infinite dimensional real Banach space, and prove that there exist even spaces, including HI or unconditional examples from \cite{F} and $C(K)$ examples due to Plebanek \cite{P}. We extend results of \cite{F} relating the set of complex structures up to isomorphism on a real space to a group associated to inessential operators on that space, and give characterizations of even spaces in terms of this group. We also generalize results of \cite{F} about totally incomparable complex structures to essentially incomparable complex structures, while showing that the complex version of a space defined by S. Argyros and A. Manoussakis \cite{AM} provide examples of essentially incomparable complex structures which are not totally incomparable.

This is an announcement for the paper "Metrical characterization of super-reflexivity and linear type of Banach spaces" by Florent Baudier. Abstract: We prove that a Banach space X is not super-reflexive if and only if the hyperbolic infinite tree embeds metrically into X. We improve one implication of J.Bourgain's result who gave a metrical characterization of super-reflexivity in Banach spaces in terms of uniforms embeddings of the finite trees. A characterization of the linear type for Banach spaces is given using the embedding of the infinite tree equipped with a suitable metric.

This is an announcement for the paper "Weakly null sequences with upper estimates" by Daniel Freeman. Abstract: We prove that if $(v_i)$ is a normalized basic sequence and X is a Banach space such that every normalized weakly null sequence in X has a subsequence that is dominated by $(v_i)$, then there exists a uniform constant $C\geq1$ such that every normalized weakly null sequence in X has a subsequence that is C-dominated by $(v_i)$. This extends a result of Knaust and Odell, who proved this for the cases in which $(v_i)$ is the standard basis for $\ell_p$ or $c_0$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Convex-transitive characterizations of Hilbert spaces" by Jarno Talponen. Abstract: In this paper we investigate real convex-transitive Banach spaces X, which admit a 1-dimensional bicontractive projection P on X. Various mild conditions regarding the weak topology and the geometry of the norm are provided, which guarantee that such an X is in fact isometrically a Hilbert space. The results obtained can be regarded as partial answers to the well-known Banach-Mazur rotation problem, as well as to a question posed by B. Randrianantoanina in 2002 about convex-transitive spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Strong peak points and denseness of strong peak functions" by Han Ju Lee. Abstract: Let $C_b(K)$ be the set of all bounded continuous (real or complex) functions on a complete metric space $K$ and $A$ a closed subspace of $C_b(K)$. Using the variational method, it is shown that the set of all strong peak functions in $A$ is dense if and only if the set of all strong peak points is a norming subset of $A$. As a corollary we show that if $X$ is a locally uniformly convex, complex Banach space, then the set of all strong peak functions in $\mathcal{A}(B_X)$ is a dense $G_\delta$ subset. Moreover if $X$ is separable, smooth and locally uniformly convex, then the set of all norm and numerical strong peak functions in $\mathcal{A}_u(B_X:X)$ is a dense $G_\delta$ subset. In case that a set of uniformly strongly exposed points of a (real or complex) Banach space $X$ is a norming subset of $\mathcal{P}({}^n X)$ for some $n\ge 1$, then the set of all strongly norm attaining elements in $\mathcal{P}({}^n X)$ is dense, in particular, the set of all points at which the norm of $\mathcal{P}({}^n X)$ is Fr\'echet differentiable is a dense $G_\delta$ subset.

This is an announcement for the paper "Pointwise convergence for semigroups in vector-valued $L^p$ spaces" by Robert J Taggart. Abstract: Suppose that T_t is a symmetric diffusion semigroup on L^2(X). We show that the tensor extension of T_t to L^p(X;B), where B belongs to a certain class of UMD spaces, exhibits pointwise convergence almost everywhere as t approaches zero. Our principal tools are vector-valued versions of maximal theorems due to Hopf--Dunford--Schwartz and Stein. These are proved using subpositivity and estimates on the bounded imaginary powers of the generator of T_t. An extension of these results to analytic continuations of T_t is also given.

This is an announcement for the paper "A filtered version of the bipolar theorem of Brannath and Schachermayer" by Gordan Zitkovic. Abstract: We extend the Bipolar Theorem of Brannath and Schachermayer (1999) to the space of nonnegative cadlag supermartingales on a filtered probability space. We formulate the notion of fork-convexity as an analogue to convexity in this setting. As an intermediate step in the proof of our main result we establish a conditional version of the Bipolar theorem. In an application to mathematical finance we describe the structure of the set of dual processes of the utility maximization problem of Kramkov and Schachermayer (1999) and give a budget-constraint characterization of admissible consumption processes in an incomplete semimartingale market.

This is an announcement for the paper "The Euclidean distortion of the lamplighter group" by Tim Austin, Assaf Naor, and Alain Valette. Abstract: We show that the cyclic lamplighter group $C_2 \bwr C_n$ embeds into Hilbert space with distortion ${\rm O}\left(\sqrt{\log n}\right)$. This matches the lower bound proved by Lee, Naor and Peres in~\cite{LeeNaoPer}, answering a question posed in that paper. Thus the Euclidean distortion of $C_2 \bwr C_n$ is $\Theta\left(\sqrt{\log n}\right)$. Our embedding is constructed explicitly in terms of the irreducible representations of the group. Since the optimal Euclidean embedding of a finite group can always be chosen to be equivariant, as shown by Aharoni, Maurey and Mityagin~\cite{AhaMauMit} and by Gromov (see~\cite{deCTesVal}), such representation-theoretic considerations suggest a general tool for obtaining upper and lower bounds on Euclidean embeddings of finite groups.

(delta-convex) function on a normed linear space is a function representable as a difference of two continuous convex functions. We show that an infinite dimensional analogue of Hartman's theorem on stability of d.c. functions under compositions does not hold in general. However, we prove that it holds in some interesting particular cases. Our main results about compositions are proved in the more general context of d.c. mappings between normed linear spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Quotients of continuous convex functions on nonreflexive Banach spaces" by P. Holicky, O. Kalenda, L. Vesely, and L. Zajicek. Abstract: On each nonreflexive Banach space X there exists a positive continuous convex function f such that 1/f is not a d.c. function (i.e., a difference of two continuous convex functions). This result together with known ones implies that X is reflexive if and only if each everywhere defined quotient of two continuous convex functions is a d.c. function. Our construction gives also a stronger version of Klee's result concerning renormings of nonreflexive spaces and non-norm-attaining functionals.

This is an announcement for the paper "A new infinite game in Banach spaces with applications" by Edward Odell, Thomas Schlumprecht and Andras Zsak. Abstract: We consider the following two-player game played on a separable, infinite-dimensional Banach space X. Player S chooses a positive integer k_1 and a finite-codimensional subspace X_1 of X. Then player P chooses x_1 in the unit sphere of X_1. Moves alternate thusly, forever. We study this game in the following setting. Certain normalized, 1-unconditional sequences (u_i) and (v_i) are fixed so that S has a winning strategy to force P to select x_i's so that if the moves are (k_1,X_1,x_1,k_2,X_2,x_2,...), then (x_i) is dominated by (u_{k_i}) and/or (x_i) dominates (v_{k_i}). In particular, we show that for suitable (u_i) and (v_i) if X is reflexive and S can win both of the games above, then X embeds into a reflexive space Z with an FDD which also satisfies analogous block upper (u_i) and lower (v_i) estimates. Certain universal space consequences ensue.

This is an announcement for the paper "An extension of a Bourgain--Lindenstrauss--Milman inequality" by Omer Friedland and Sasha Sodin. Abstract: Let || . || be a norm on R^n. Averaging || (\eps_1 x_1, \cdots, \eps_n x_n) || over all the 2^n choices of \eps = (\eps_1, \cdots, \eps_n) in \{ -1, +1 \}^n, we obtain an expression ||| . ||| which is an unconditional norm on R^n. Bourgain, Lindenstrauss and Milman showed that, for a certain (large) constant \eta > 1, one may average over (\eta n) (random) choices of \eps and obtain a norm that is isomorphic to ||| . |||. We show that this is the case for any \eta > 1. Archive classification: math.FA math.PR The source file(s), kkh_18.6.tex: 12943 bytes, is(are) stored in gzipped form as 0706.2638.gz with size 5kb.

This is an announcement for the paper "The wreath product of Z with Z has Hilbert compression exponent 2/3" by Tim Austin, Assaf Naor, and Yuval Peres. Abstract: We consider the wreath product $\Z\bwr \Z $, and prove that any Lipschitz function $f:\Z\bwr \Z \to L_2$ satisfies $$\liminf_{d_{\Z\bwr\Z}(x,y)\to \infty}\frac{\|f(x)-f(y)\|_2}{d_{\Z\bwr\Z}(x,y)^{2/3}}<\infty. $$ On the other hand, as as shown by Tessera in~\cite{Tess06}, there exists a Lipschitz function $g:\Z\bwr \Z \to L_2$ and a real $c>0$ such that $\|f(x)-f(y)\|_2 \ge c\,d_{\Z\bwr\Z}(x,y)^{2/3}$ for all $x,y \in \Z\bwr\Z$. Thus the Hilbert compression exponent of $\Z\bwr \Z$ is exactly $\frac23$, answering a question posed by Arzhantseva, Guba and Sapir~\cite{AGS06} and by Tessara~\cite{Tess06}. Our proof is based on an application of K. Ball's notion of Markov type.

We prove that a countable group $G$ is representable in a separable real Banach space $X$ in several general cases, including when $G=\{-1,1\} \times H$, $H$ finite and $\dim X \geq |H|$, or when $G$ contains a normal subgroup with two elements and $X$ is of the form $c_0(Y)$ or $\ell_p(Y)$, $1 \leq p <+\infty$. This is a consequence of a result inspired by methods of S. Bellenot and stating that under rather general conditions on a separable real Banach space $X$ and a countable bounded group $G$ of isomorphisms on $X$ containing $-Id$, there exists an equivalent norm on $X$ for which $G$ is equal to the group of isometries on $X$. We also extend methods of K. Jarosz to prove that any complex Banach space of dimension at least $2$ may be renormed to admit only trivial real isometries, and that any real Banach space which is a cartesian square may be renormed to admit only trivial and conjugation real isometries. It follows that every real space of dimension at least $4$ and with a complex structure up to isomorphism may be renormed to admit exactly two complex structures up to isometry, and that every real cartesian square may be renormed to admit a unique complex structure up to isometry.

This is an announcement for the paper "Characterizations of the Radon-Nikodym Property in terms of inverse limits" by Jeff Cheeger and Bruce Kleiner. Abstract: We show that a separable Banach space has the Radon-Nikodym Property if and only if it is isomorphic to the limit of an inverse system, V_1<--- V_2<---...<--- V_k<---..., where the V_i's are finite dimensional Banach spaces, and the bonding maps V_{k-1}<--- V_k are quotient maps. We also show that the inverse system can be chosen to be a good finite dimensional approximation (GFDA), a notion introduced our earlier paper "On the differentiability of Lipschtz maps from metric measure spaces into Banach spaces". As a corollary, it follows that the differentiation and bi-Lipschitz non-embedding theorems in that paper, which were proved for maps into GFDA targets, are optimal in the sense that they hold for targets with the Radon-Nikodym Property.

This is an announcement for the paper "Randomized series and geometry of Banach spaces" by Han Ju Lee. Abstract: We study some properties of the randomized series and their applications to the geometric structure of Banach spaces. For $n\ge 2$ and $1<p<\infty$, it is shown that $\ell_\infty^n$ is representable in a Banach space $X$ if and only if it is representable in the Lebesgue-Bochner $L_p(X)$. New criteria for various convexity properties in Banach spaces are also studied. It is proved that a Banach lattice $E$ is uniformly monotone if and only if its $p$-convexification $E^{(p)}$ is uniformly convex and that a K\"othe function space $E$ is upper locally uniformly monotone if and only if its $p$-convexification $E^{(p)}$ is midpoint locally uniformly convex.

This is an announcement for the paper "A Maurey type result for operator spaces" by Marius Junge and Hun Hee Lee. Abstract: The little Grothendieck theorem for Banach spaces says that every bounded linear operator between $C(K)$ and $\ell_2$ is 2-summing. However, it is shown in \cite{J05} that the operator space analogue fails. Not every cb-map $v : \K \to OH$ is completely 2-summing. In this paper, we show an operator space analogue of Maurey's theorem : Every cb-map $v : \K \to OH$ is $(q,cb)$-summing for any $q>2$ and hence admits a factorization $\|v(x)\| \leq c(q) \|v\|_{cb} \|axb\|_q$ with $a,b$ in the unit ball of the Schatten class $S_{2q}$.

The main result of this paper states that in the category of unital subspaces of noncommutative probability Lp-spaces, the unital completely isometric maps come from *-isomorphisms of the underlying von Neumann algebras. Unfortunately we are only able to treat the case of bounded operators.

This is an announcement for the paper "Nice surjections on spaces of operators" by T s s R K Rao. Abstract: A bounded linear operator is said to be nice if its adjoint preserves extreme points of the dual unit ball. Motivated by a description due to Labuschagne and Mascioni \cite{LM} of such maps for the space of compact operators on a Hilbert space, in this article we consider a description of nice surjections on ${\mathcal K}(X,Y)$ for Banach spaces $X,Y$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions when nice surjections are given by composition operators. Our results imply automatic continuity of these maps with respect to other topologies on spaces of operators. We also formulate the corresponding result for ${\mathcal L}(X,Y)$ thereby proving an analogue of the result from \cite{LM} for $L^p$ ($1 <p \neq 2 <\infty$) spaces. We also formulate results when nice operators are not of the canonical form, extending and correcting the results from \cite{KS}.

This is an announcement for the paper "Extremal problems in Minkowski space related to minimal networks" by Konrad J Swanepoel. Abstract: We solve the following problem of Z. F\"uredi, J. C. Lagarias and F. Morgan [FLM]: Is there an upper bound polynomial in $n$ for the largest cardinality of a set S of unit vectors in an n-dimensional Minkowski space (or Banach space) such that the sum of any subset has norm less than 1? We prove that |S|\leq 2n and that equality holds iff the space is linearly isometric to \ell^n_\infty, the space with an n-cube as unit ball. We also remark on similar questions raised in [FLM] that arose out of the study of singularities in length-minimizing networks in Minkowski spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Tracial gauge norms on finite von Neumann algebras satisfying the weak Dixmier property" by Junsheng Fang, Don Hadwin, Eric Nordgren, and Junhao Shen. Abstract: In this paper we set up a representation theorem for tracial gauge norms on finite von Neumann algebras satisfying the weak Dixmier property in terms of Ky Fan norms. Examples of tracial gauge norms on finite von Neumann algebras satisfying the weak Dixmier property include unitarily invariant norms on finite factors (type ${\rm II}\sb 1$ factors and $M_n(\cc)$) and symmetric gauge norms on $L^\infty[0,1]$ and $\cc^n$. As the first application, we obtain that the class of unitarily invariant norms on a type ${\rm II}\sb 1$ factor coincides with the class of symmetric gauge norms on $L^\infty[0,1]$ and von Neumann's classical result~\cite{vN} on unitarily invariant norms on $M_n(\cc)$. As the second application, Ky Fan's dominance theorem~\cite{Fan} is obtained for finite von Neumann algebras satisfying the weak Dixmier property. As the third application, some classical results in non-commutative $L^p$-theory (e.g., non-commutative H$\ddot{\text{o}}$lder's inequality, duality and reflexivity of non-commutative $L^p$-spaces) are obtained for general unitarily invariant norms on finite factors. We also investigate the extreme points of $\NN(\M)$, the convex compact set (in the pointwise weak topology) of normalized unitarily invariant norms (the norm of the identity operator is 1) on a finite factor $\M$. We obtain all extreme points of $\NN(M_2(\cc))$ and many extreme points of $\NN(M_n(\cc))$ ($n\geq 3$). For a type ${\rm II}\sb 1$ factor $\M$, we prove that if $t$ ($0\leq t\leq 1$) is a rational number then the Ky Fan $t$-th norm is an extreme point of $\NN(\M)$.

This is an announcement for the paper "A note on curves equipartition" by M. A. Lopez and S. Reisner. Abstract: The problem of the existence of an equi-partition of a curve in $\R^n$ has recently been raised in the context of computational geometry. The problem is to show that for a (continuous) curve $\Gamma : [0,1] \to \R^n$ and for any positive integer $N$, there exist points $t_0=0<t_1<...<t_{N-1}<1=t_N$, such that $d(\Gamma(t_{i-1}),\Gamma(t_i))=d(\Gamma(t_{i}),\Gamma(t_{i+1}))$ for all $i=1,...,N$, where $d$ is a metric or even a semi-metric (a weaker notion) on $\R^n$. We show here that the existence of such points, in a much broader context, is a consequence of Brower's fixed point theorem.

This is an announcement for the paper "Notes on the geometry of space of polynomials" by Han Ju Lee. Abstract: We show that the symmetric injective tensor product space $\hat{\otimes}_{n,s,\varepsilon}E$ is not complex strictly convex if $E$ is a complex Banach space of $\dim E \ge 2$ and if $n\ge 2$ holds. It is also reproved that $\ell_\infty$ is finitely represented in $\hat{\otimes}_{n,s,\varepsilon}E$ if $E$ is infinite dimensional and if $n\ge 2$ holds, which was proved in the other way by Dineen.

This is an announcement for the paper "Multiplication operators on $L(L_p)$ and $\ell_p$-strictly singular operators" by William B. Johnson and Gideon Schechtman. Abstract: A classification of weakly compact multiplication operators on $L(L_p)$, $1<p<\infty$, is given. This answers a question raised by Saksman and Tylli in 1992. The classification involves the concept of $\ell_p$-strictly singular operators, and we also investigate the structure of general $\ell_p$-strictly singular operators on $L_p$. The main result is that if an operator $T$ on $L_p$, $1<p<2$, is $\ell_p$-strictly singular and $T_{|X}$ is an isomorphism for some subspace $X$ of $L_p$, then $X$ embeds into $L_r$ for all $r<2$, but $X$ need not be isomorphic to a Hilbert space. It is also shown that if $T $ is convolution by a biased coin on $L_p$ of the Cantor group, $1\le p <2$, and $T_{|X}$ is an isomorphism for some reflexive subspace $X$ of $L_p$, then $X$ is isomorphic to a Hilbert space. The case $p=1$ answers a question asked by Rosenthal in 1976.

This is an announcement for the paper "Embeddings of discrete groups and the speed of random walks" by Assaf Naor and Yuval Peres. Abstract: For a finitely generated group G and a banach space X let \alpha^*_X(G) (respectively \alpha^#_X(G)) be the supremum over all \alpha\ge 0 such that there exists a Lipschitz mapping (respectively an equivariant mapping) f:G\to X and c>0 such that for all x,y\in G we have \|f(x)-f(y)\|\ge c\cdot d_G(x,y)^\alpha. In particular, the Hilbert compression exponent (respectively the equivariant Hilbert compression exponent) of G is \alpha^*(G)=\alpha^*_{L_2}(G) (respectively \alpha^#(G)= \alpha_{L_2}^#(G)). We show that if X has modulus of smoothness of power type p, then \alpha^#_X(G)\le \frac{1}{p\beta^*(G)}. Here \beta^*(G) is the largest \beta\ge 0 for which there exists a set of generators S of G and c>0 such that for all t\in \N we have \E\big[d_G(W_t,e)\big]\ge ct^\beta, where \{W_t\}_{t=0}^\infty is the canonical simple random walk on the Cayley graph of G determined by S, starting at the identity element. This result is sharp when X=L_p, generalizes a theorem of Guentner and Kaminker and answers a question posed by Tessera. We also show that if \alpha^*(G)\ge 1/2 then \alpha^*(G\bwr \Z)\ge \frac{2\alpha^*(G)}{2\alpha^*(G)+1}. This improves the previous bound due to Stalder and ValetteWe deduce that if we write \Z_{(1)}= \Z and \Z_{(k+1)}\coloneqq \Z_{(k)}\bwr \Z then \alpha^*(\Z_{(k)})=\frac{1}{2-2^{1-k}}, and use this result to answer a question posed by Tessera in on the relation between the Hilbert compression exponent and the isoperimetric profile of the balls in G. We also show that the cyclic lamplighter groups C_2\bwr C_n embed into L_1 with uniformly bounded distortion, answering a question posed by Lee, Naor and Peres. Finally, we use these results to show that edge Markov type need not imply Enflo type.

This is an announcement for the paper "Pointwise estimates for marginals of convex bodies" by Ronen Eldan and Boaz Klartag. Abstract: We prove a pointwise version of the multi-dimensional central limit theorem for convex bodies. Namely, let X be an isotropic random vector in R^n with a log-concave density. For a typical subspace E in R^n of dimension n^c, consider the probability density of the projection of X onto E. We show that the ratio between this probability density and the standard gaussian density in E is very close to 1 in large parts of E. Here c > 0 is a universal constant. This complements a recent result by the second named author, where the total-variation metric between the densities was considered.

This is an announcement for the paper "The geometry of Minkowski spaces --- a survey. Part I" by Horst Martini, Konrad J Swanepoel and Gunter Weiss. Abstract: We survey elementary results in Minkowski spaces (i.e. finite dimensional Banach spaces) that deserve to be collected together, and give simple proofs for some of them. We place special emphasis on planar results. Many of these results have often been rediscovered as lemmas to other results. In Part I we cover the following topics: The triangle inequality and consequences such as the monotonicity lemma, geometric characterizations of strict convexity, normality (Birkhoff orthogonality), conjugate diameters and Radon curves, equilateral triangles and the affine regular hexagon construction, equilateral sets, circles: intersection, circumscribed, characterizations, circumference and area, inscribed equilateral polygons.

This is an announcement for the paper "Semilattice structures of spreading models" by Denny H. Leung and Wee-Kee Tang. Abstract: Given a Banach space X, denote by SP_{w}(X) the set of equivalence classes of spreading models of X generated by normalized weakly null sequences in X. It is known that SP_{w}(X) is a semilattice, i.e., it is a partially ordered set in which every pair of elements has a least upper bound. We show that every countable semilattice that does not contain an infinite increasing sequence is order isomorphic to SP_{w}(X) for some separable Banach space X.

This is an announcement for the paper "A remark on hypercontractive semigroups and operator ideals" by Gilles Pisier. Abstract: In this note, we answer a question raised by Johnson and Schechtman \cite{JS}, about the hypercontractive semigroup on $\{-1,1\}^{\NN}$. More generally, we prove the folllowing theorem. Let $1<p<2$. Let $(T(t))_{t>0}$ be a holomorphic semigroup on $L_p$ (relative to a probability space). Assume the following mild form of hypercontractivity: for some large enough number $s>0$, $T(s)$ is bounded from $L_p$ to $L_2$. Then for any $t>0$, $T(t)$ is in the norm closure in $B(L_p)$ (denoted by $\overline{\Gamma_2}$) of the subset (denoted by ${\Gamma_2}$) formed by the operators mapping $L_p$ to $L_2$ (a fortiori these operators factor through a Hilbert space).

This is an announcement for the paper "Best constants for Lipschitz embeddings of metric spaces into $c_0$" by N.J. Kalton and G. Lancien. Abstract: We answer a question of Aharoni by showing that every separable metric space can be Lipschitz 2-embedded into $c_0$ and this result is sharp; this improves earlier estimates of Aharoni, Assouad and Pelant. We use our methods to examine the best constant for Lipschitz embeddings of the classical $\ell_p-$spaces into $c_0$ and give other applications. We prove that if a Banach space embeds almost isometrically into $c_0$, then it embeds linearly almost isometrically into $c_0$. We also study Lipschitz embeddings into $c_0^+$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Boundaries for algebras of holomorphic functions on Banach spaces" by Yun Sung Choi Kwang Hee Han Han Ju Lee. Abstract: We study the relations between boundaries for algebras of holomorphic functions on Banach spaces and complex convexity of their balls. In addition, we show that the Shilov boundary for algebras of holomorphic functions on an order continuous sequence space $X$ is the unit sphere $S_X$ if $X$ is locally c-convex. In particular, it is shown that the unit sphere of the Orlicz-Lorentz sequence space $\lambda_{\varphi, w}$ is the Shilov boundary for algebras of holomorphic functions on $\lambda_{\varphi, w}$ if $\varphi$ satisfies the $\delta_2$-condition.

This is an announcement for the paper "Bishop's theorem and differentiability of a subspace of $C_b(K)$" by Yun Sung Choi, Han Ju Lee, and Hyun Gwi Song. Abstract: Let $K$ be a Hausdorff space and $C_b(K)$ be the Banach algebra of all complex bounded continuous functions on $K$. We study the G\^{a}teaux and Fr\'echet differentiability of subspaces of $C_b(K)$. Using this, we show that the set of all strong peak functions in a nontrivial separating separable subspace $H$ of $C_b(K)$ is a dense $G_\delta$ subset of $H$, if $K$ is compact. This gives a generalized Bishop's theorem, which says that the closure of the set of strong peak point for $H$ is the smallest closed norming subset of $H$. The classical Bishop's theorem was proved for a separating subalgebra $H$ and a metrizable compact space $K$. In the case that $X$ is a complex Banach space with the Radon-Nikod\'ym property, we show that the set of all strong peak functions in $A_b(B_X)=\{ f\in C_b(B_X) : f|_{B_X^\circ} \mbox{ is holomorphic}\}$ is dense. As an application, we show that the smallest closed norming subset of $A_b(B_X)$ is the closure of the set of all strong peak points for $A_b(B_X)$. This implies that the norm of $A_b(B_X)$ is G\^{a}teaux differentiable on a dense subset of $A_b(B_X)$, even though the norm is nowhere Fr\'echet differentiable when $X$ is nontrivial. We also study the denseness of norm attaining holomorphic functions and polynomials. Finally we investigate the existence of numerical Shilov boundary.

This is an announcement for the paper "Counterexamples for the convexity of certain matricial inequalities" by Marius Junge and Quanhua Xu. Abstract: In \cite{CL} Carlen and Lieb considered Minkowski type inequalities in the context of operators on a Hilbert space. More precisely, they considered the homogenous expression \[ f_{pq}(x_1,...,x_n) \lel \big(tr\big((\sum_{k=1}^n x_k^q)^{p/q}\big)\big)^{1/p} \pl \] defined for positive matrices. The concavity for $q=1$ and $p<1$ yields strong subadditivity for quantum entropy. We discuss the convexity of $f_{pq}$ and show that, contrary to the commutative case, there exists a $q_0>1$ such that $f_{1q}$ is not convex for all $1<q<q_0$. This is achieved by constructing a family of interesting channels on $2\times 2$ matrices.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the linear independence of spikes and sines" by Joel A. Tropp. Abstract: The purpose of this work is to survey what is known about the linear independence of spikes and sines. The paper provides new results for the case where the locations of the spikes and the frequencies of the sines are chosen at random. This problem is equivalent to studying the spectral norm of a random submatrix drawn from the discrete Fourier transform matrix. The proof involves methods from geometric functional analysis.

This is an announcement for the paper "Sharp constants related to the triangle inequality in Lorentz spaces" by Sorina Barza, Viktor Kolyada, and Javier Soria. Abstract: We study the Lorentz spaces $L^{p,s}(R,\mu)$ in the range $1<p<s\le \infty$, for which the standard functional $$ ||f||_{p,s}=\left(\int_0^\infty (t^{1/p}f^*(t))^s\frac{dt}{t}\right)^{1/s} $$ is only a quasi-norm. We find the optimal constant in the triangle inequality for this quasi-norm, which leads us to consider the following decomposition norm: $$ ||f||_{(p,s)}=\inf\bigg\{\sum_{k}||f_k||_{p,s}\bigg\}, $$ where the infimum is taken over all finite representations $f=\sum_{k}f_k. $ We also prove that the decomposition norm and the dual norm $$ ||f||_{p,s}'= \sup\left\{ \int_R fg\,d\mu: ||g||_{p',s'}=1\right\} $$ agree for all values $p,s>1$.

This is an announcement for the paper "The extremal volume ellipsoids of convex bodies, their symmetry properties, and their determination in some special cases" by Osman Gueler and Filiz Guertuna. Abstract: A convex body K has associated with it a unique circumscribed ellipsoid CE(K) with minimum volume, and a unique inscribed ellipsoid IE(K) with maximum volume. We first give a unified, modern exposition of the basic theory of these extremal ellipsoids using the semi-infinite programming approach pioneered by Fritz John in his seminal 1948 paper. We then investigate the automorphism groups of convex bodies and their extremal ellipsoids. We show that if the automorphism group of a convex body K is large enough, then it is possible to determine the extremal ellipsoids CE(K) and IE(K) exactly, using either semi-infinite programming or nonlinear programming. As examples, we compute the extremal ellipsoids when the convex body K is the part of a given ellipsoid between two parallel hyperplanes, and when K is a truncated second order cone or an ellipsoidal cylinder.

This is an announcement for the paper "Conical square functions in UMD Banach spaces" by Tuomas Hytonen, Jan van Neerven, and Pierre Portal. Abstract: We study conical square function estimates for Banach-valued functions, and introduce a vector-valued analogue of the Coifman-Meyer-Stein tent spaces. Following recent work of Auscher-McIntosh-Russ, the tent spaces in turn are used to construct a scale of vector-valued Hardy spaces associated with a given bisectorial operator \(A\) with certain off-diagonal bounds, such that \(A\) always has a bounded \(H^{\infty}\)-functional calculus on these spaces. This provides a new way of proving functional calculus of \(A\) on the Bochner spaces \(L^p(\R^n;X)\) by checking appropriate conical square function estimates, and also a conical analogue of Bourgain's extension of the Littlewood-Paley theory to the UMD-valued context. Even when \(X=\C\), our approach gives refined \(p\)-dependent versions of known results.

This is an announcement for the paper "Some classes of rational functions and related Banach spaces" by R. M. Dudley, Sergiy Sidenko, Zuoqin Wang, and Fangyun Yang. Abstract: For positive integers d, r, and M, we consider the class of rational functions on real d-dimensional space whose denominators are products of at most r functions of the form 1+Q(x) where each Q is a quadratic form with eigenvalues bounded above by M and below by 1/M. Each numerator is a monic monomial of the same degree as the corresponding denominator. Then we form the Banach space of countable linear combinations of such rational functions with absolutely summable coefficients, normed by the infimum of sums of absolute values of the coefficients. We show that for rational functions whose denominators are rth powers of a specific 1+Q, or differences of two such rational functions with the same numerator, the norm is achieved by and only by the obvious combination of one or two functions respectively. We also find bounds for coefficients in partial-fraction decompositions of some specific rational functions, which in some cases are quite sharp.

This is an announcement for the paper "Robust dimension reduction, fusion frames, and Grassmannian packings" by Gitta Kutyniok, Ali Pezeshki, Robert Calderbank, and Taotao Liu. Abstract: We consider estimating a random vector from its noisy projections onto low dimensional subspaces constituting a fusion frame. A fusion frame is a collection of subspaces, for which the sum of the projection operators onto the subspaces is bounded below and above by constant multiples of the identity operator. We first determine the minimum mean-squared error (MSE) in linearly estimating the random vector of interest from its fusion frame projections, in the presence of white noise. We show that MSE assumes its minimum value when the fusion frame is tight. We then analyze the robustness of the constructed linear minimum MSE (LMMSE) estimator to erasures of the fusion frame subspaces. We prove that tight fusion frames consisting of equi-dimensional subspaces have maximum robustness (in the MSE sense) with respect to erasures of one subspace, and that the optimal subspace dimension depends on signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). We also prove that tight fusion frames consisting of equi-dimensional subspaces with equal pairwise chordal distances are most robust with respect to two and more subspace erasures. We call such fusion frames equi-distance tight fusion frames, and prove that the chordal distance between subspaces in such fusion frames meets the so-called simplex bound, and thereby establish connections between equi-distance tight fusion frames and optimal Grassmannian packings. Finally, we present several examples for construction of equi-distance tight fusion frames.

This is an announcement for the paper "Characterization of the matrix whose norm is determined by its action on decreasing sequences: The exceptional cases" by Chang-Pao Chen, Chun-Yen Shen, and Kuo-Zhong Wang. Abstract: Let $A=(a_{j,k})_{j,k \ge 1}$ be a non-negative matrix. In this paper, we characterize those $A$ for which $\|A\|_{\ell_p,\ell_q}$ are determined by their actions on non-negative decreasing sequences, where one of $p$ and $q$ is 1 or $\infty$. The conditions forcing on $A$ are sufficient and they are also necessary for non-negative finite matrices.

This is an announcement for the paper "How can we recover Baire class one functions?" by Dominique Lecomte. Abstract: Let X and Y be separable metrizable spaces, and f:X-->Y be a function. We want to recover f from its values on a small set via a simple algorithm. We show that this is possible if f is Baire class one, and in fact we get a characterization. This leads us to the study of sets of Baire class one functions and to a characterization of the separability of the dual space of an arbitrary Banach space.

This is an announcement for the paper "Geometry of sets of quantum maps: a generic positive map acting on a high-dimensional system is not completely positive" by Stanislaw J. Szarek, Elisabeth Werner and Karol Zyczkowski. Abstract: We investigate the set a) of positive, trace preserving maps acting on density matrices of size N, and a sequence of its nested subsets: the sets of maps which are b) decomposable, c) completely positive, d) extended by identity impose positive partial transpose and e) are superpositive. Working with the Hilbert-Schmidt (Euclidean) measure we derive tight explicit two-sided bounds for the volumes of all five sets. A sample consequence is the fact that, as N increases, a generic positive map becomes not decomposable and, a fortiori, not completely positive. Due to the Jamiolkowski isomorphism, the results obtained for quantum maps are closely connected to similar relations between the volume of the set of quantum states and the volumes of its subsets (such as states with positive partial transpose or separable states) or supersets. Our approach depends on systematic use of duality to derive quantitative estimates, and on various tools of classical convexity, high-dimensional probability and geometry of Banach spaces, some of which are not standard.

This is an announcement for the paper "Characterizing arbitrarily slow convergence in the method of alternating projections" by H.H. Bauschke, F. Deutsch and H. Hundal. Abstract: In 1997, Bauschke, Borwein, and Lewis have stated a trichotomy theorem that characterizes when the convergence of the method of alternating projections can be arbitrarily slow. However, there are two errors in their proof of this theorem. In this note, we show that although one of the errors is critical, the theorem itself is correct. We give a different proof that uses the multiplicative form of the spectral theorem, and the theorem holds in any real or complex Hilbert space, not just in a real Hilbert space.

This is an announcement for the paper "Trees, linear orders and G\^ateaux smooth norms" by Richard J. Smith. Abstract: We introduce a linearly ordered set Z and use it to prove a necessity condition for the existence of a G\^ateaux smooth norm on C(T), where T is a tree. This criterion is directly analogous to the corresponding equivalent condition for Fr\'echet smooth norms. In addition, we prove that if C(T) admits a G\^ateaux smooth lattice norm then it also admits a lattice norm with strictly convex dual norm.

This is an announcement for the paper "Gruenhage compacta and strictly convex dual norms" by Richard J. Smith. Abstract: We prove that if K is a Gruenhage compact space then C(K)* admits an equivalent, strictly convex dual norm. As a corollary, we show that if X is a Banach space and X* is the |.|-closed linear span of K, where K is a Gruenhage compact in the w*-topology and |.| is equivalent to a coarser, w*-lower semicontinuous norm on X*, then X* admits an equivalent, strictly convex dual norm. We give a partial converse to the first result by showing that if T is a tree, then C(T)* admits an equivalent, strictly convex dual norm if and only if T is a Gruenhage space. Finally, we present some stability properties satisfied by Gruenhage spaces; in particular, Gruenhage spaces are stable under perfect images.

This is an announcement for the paper "On an extension of the Blaschke-Santalo inequality" by David Alonso-Gutierrez. Abstract: Let $K$ be a convex body and $K^\circ$ its polar body. Call $\phi(K)=\frac{1}{|K||K^\circ|}\int_K\int_{K^\circ}\langle x,y\rangle^2 dxdy$. It is conjectured that $\phi(K)$ is maximum when $K$ is the euclidean ball. In particular this statement implies the Blaschke-Santalo inequality. We verify this conjecture when $K$ is restricted to be a $p$--ball.

This is an announcement for the paper "Finite dimensional subspaces of noncommutative $L_p$ spaces" by Hun Hee Lee. Abstract: We prove the following noncommutative version of Lewis's classical result. Every n-dimensional subspace E of Lp(M) (1<p<\infty) for a von Neumann algebra M satisfies d_{cb}(E, RC^n_{p'}) \leq c_p n^{\abs{1/2-1/p}} for some constant c_p depending only on $p$, where $1/p +1/p' =1$ and $RC^n_{p'} = [R_n\cap C_n, R_n+C_n]_{1/p'}$. Moreover, there is a projection $P:Lp(M) --> Lp(M)$ onto E with $\norm{P}_{cb} \leq c_p n^{\abs{1/2-1/p}}.$ We follow the classical change of density argument with appropriate noncommutative variations in addition to the opposite trick.

This is an announcement for the paper "Banach spaces without minimal subspaces" by Valentin Ferenczi and Christian Rosendal. Abstract: We prove three new dichotomies for Banach spaces \`a la W. T. Gowers' dichotomies. The three dichotomies characterise respectively the spaces having no minimal subspaces, having no subsequentially minimal basic sequences, and having no subspaces crudely finitely representable in all of their subspaces. We subsequently use these results to make progress on the program of Gowers of classifying Banach spaces by finding characteristic spaces present in every space. Also, the results are used to embed any partial order of size $\aleph_1$ into the subspaces of any space without a minimal subspace ordered by isomorphic embeddability. Finally, we analyse several examples of spaces and classify them according to which side of the dichotomies they fall.

Biorthogonal Systems in Banach Spaces Springer Series: CMS Books in Mathematics Authors: Hajek, P., Montesinos Santalucia, V., Vanderwerff, J., Zizler, V. ISBN: 978-0-387-68914-2 The main theme of this book is the relation between the global structure of Banach spaces and the various types of generalized "coordinate systems" - or "bases" - they possess. This subject is not new and has been investigated since the inception of the study of Banach spaces. In this book, the authors systematically investigate the concepts of Markushevich bases, fundamental systems, total systems and their variants. The material naturally splits into the case of separable Banach spaces, as is treated in the first two chapters, and the nonseparable case, which is covered in the remainder of the book. This book contains new results, and a substantial portion of this material has never before appeared in book form. The book will be of interest to both researchers and graduate students. Topics covered in this book include: - Biorthogonal Systems in Separable Banach Spaces - Universality and Szlenk Index - Weak Topologies and Renormings - Biorthogonal Systems in Nonseparable Spaces - Transfinite Sequence Spaces - Applications Petr Hajek is Professor of Mathematics at the Mathematical Institute of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic.

This is an announcement for the paper "The Effros-Ruan conjecture for bilinear forms on C$^*$-algebras" by Uffe Haagerup and Magdalena Musat. Abstract: In 1991 Effros and Ruan conjectured that a certain Grothendieck-type inequality for a bilinear form on C$^*$-algebras holds if (and only if) the bilinear form is jointly completely bounded. In 2002 Pisier and Shlyakhtenko proved that this inequality holds in the more general setting of operator spaces, provided that the operator spaces in question are exact. Moreover, they proved that the conjecture of Effros and Ruan holds for pairs of C$^*$-algebras, of which at least one is exact. In this paper we prove that the Effros-Ruan conjecture holds for general C$^*$-algebras, with constant one. More precisely, we show that for every jointly completely bounded (for short, j.c.b.) bilinear form on a pair of C$^*$-algebras $A$ and $B$\,, there exist states $f_1$\,, $f_2$ on $A$ and $g_1$\,, $g_2$ on $B$ such that for all $a\in A$ and $b\in B$\,, \begin{equation*} |u(a, b)|\leq \|u\|_{jcb}(f_1(aa^*)^{1/2}g_1(b^*b)^{1/2}+f_2(a^*a)^{1/2}g_2(bb^*)^{1/2})\,. \end{equation*} While the approach by Pisier and Shlyakhtenko relies on free probability techniques, our proof uses more classical operator algebra theory, namely, Tomita-Takesaki theory and special properties of the Powers factors of type III$_\lambda$\,, $0< \lambda< 1$\,.

This is an announcement for the paper "Coefficient quantization for frames in Banach spaces" by P.G. Casazza, S.J. Dilworth, E. Odell, Th.Schlumprecht, and Andras Zsak. Abstract: Let $(e_i)$ be a fundamental system of a Banach space. We consider the problem of approximating linear combinations of elements of this system by linear combinations using quantized coefficients. We will concentrate on systems which are possibly redundant. Our model for this situation will be frames in Banach spaces.

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to participate in the summer school on "Fourier analytic and probabilistic methods in geometric functional analysis and convexity" in August 13-20, 2008. The school is being organized by the NSF funded Focused Research Group collaborative project on the same subject (http://www.math.ucdavis.edu/~geofunction/). It is oriented towards graduate students, postdocs and researchers who wish to get an introduction to the subject. The school will feature several series's of lectures. Confirmed speakers include Alexander Barvinok (University of Michigan), Piotr Indyk (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), Fedor Nazarov (University of Wisconsin-Madison), Krzysztof Oleszkiewicz (University of Warsaw), Rolf Schneider (University of Freiburg), Santosh S. Vempala (Georgia Institute of Technology). The school will be hosted by the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Kent State University in August 13-20, 2008. Kent is located in the suburbs of Cleveland, Ohio, where summers are quite beautiful. We plan to spend one of the evenings at the nearby Blossom Music Center, the summer home of the renowned Cleveland Orchestra. With NSF funding we will be able to cover local, and, probably, travel expenses for a limited number of participants, so we ask you to reply as soon as possible to Dmitry Ryabogin (ryabogin at math.kent.edu) or Artem Zvavitch (zvavitch at math.kent.edu). Graduate students and Postdoctoral fellows are especially encouraged to apply. For further information and breaking news, please, consult http://www.math.kent.edu/math/FAPR.cfm Again, please note that your early response will help us gauge the needs for housing, lecture room(s), etc. We hope to be sending out information regarding housing by the end of December. We hope to see you in Kent next August.

This is an announcement for the paper "Convex-transitivity and function spaces" by Jarno Talponen. Abstract: It is shown that the Bochner space L^{p}([0,1],X) is convex-transitive for any convex-transitive X and 1\leq p\leq \infty. If H is an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space and C_{0}(L) is convex-transitive, then C_{0}(L,H) is convex-transitive. Some new fairly concrete examples of convex-transitive spaces are provided.

This is an announcement for the paper "Small subspaces of L_p" by R.Haydon, E.Odell, Th.Schlumprecht. Abstract: We prove that if $X$ is a subspace of $L_p$ $(2<p<\infty)$ then either $X$ embeds isomorphically into $\ell_p \oplus \ell_2$ or $X$ contains a subspace $Y$, which is isomorphic to $\ell_p(\ell_2)$. We also give an intrinsic characterization of when $X$ embeds into $\ell_p \oplus \ell_2$ in terms of weakly null trees in $X$ or equivalently in terms of the ``infinite asymptotic game'' played in $X$. This solves problems concerning small subspaces of $L_p$ originating in the 1970's. The techniques used were developed over several decades, the most recent being that of weakly null trees developed in the 2000's.

G. Christensen and G. Olafsson Status: R
This is an announcement for the paper "Coorbit spaces for dual pairs" by J. G. Christensen and G. Olafsson. Abstract: This paper contains a generalization of the coorbit space theory initiated in the 1980's by H.G. Feichtinger and K.H. Groechenig. This theory has been a powerful tool in characterizing Banach spaces of functions with the use of integrable representations of locally compact groups. Examples are a wavelet characterization of the Besov spaces and a characterization of some Bergman spaces by the discrete series representation of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$. We suggest a generalization of the coorbit space theory, which is able to account for a wider range of Banach spaces and also for quasi Banach spaces. A few examples of Banach spaces which could not be covered by the previous theory are described.

This is an announcement for the paper "Upper bound for isometric embeddings \ell_2^m\to\ell_p^n" by Yuri I. Lyubich. Abstract: The isometric embeddings $\ell_{2;K}^m\to\ell_{p;K}^n$ ($m\geq 2$, $p\in 2\N$) over a field $K\in{R, C, H}$ are considered, and an upper bound for the minimal $n$ is proved. In the commutative case ($K\neq H$) the bound was obtained by Delbaen, Jarchow and Pe{\l}czy{\'n}ski (1998) in a different way.
