This is an announcement for the paper "Weighted composition operators
as Daugavet centers" by Romain Demazeux.


Abstract: We investigate the norm identity $\|uC_\varphi + T\| =
\|u\|_\infty + \|T\|$ for classes of operators on $C(S)$, where $S$
is a compact Hausdorff space without isolated point, and characterize
those weighted composition operators which satisfy this equation
for every weakly compact operator $T : C(S)\to C(S)$. We also give a
characterization of such weighted composition operator acting on the
disk algebra $A(D).$

This is an announcement for the paper "Restricted eigenvalue conditions
on subgaussian random matrices" by Shuheng Zhou.


Abstract: It is natural to ask: what kinds of matrices satisfy the
Restricted Eigenvalue (RE) condition? In this paper, we associate the
RE condition (Bickel-Ritov-Tsybakov 09) with the complexity of a subset
of the sphere in $\R^p$, where $p$ is the dimensionality of the data,
and show that a class of random matrices with independent rows, but
not necessarily independent columns, satisfy the RE condition, when
the sample size is above a certain lower bound.  Here we explicitly
introduce an additional covariance structure to the class of random
matrices that we have known by now that satisfy the Restricted Isometry
Property as defined in Candes and Tao 05 (and hence the RE condition),
in order to compose a broader class of random matrices for which the RE
condition holds.  In this case, tools from geometric functional analysis
in characterizing the intrinsic low-dimensional structures associated
with the RE condition has been crucial in analyzing the sample complexity
and understanding its statistical implications for high dimensional data.

This is an announcement for the paper "Some new thin sets of integers in
Harmonic Analysis" by Daniel Li, Herve Queffelec, Luis Rodriguez-Piazza.


Abstract: We randomly construct various subsets $\Lambda$ of the integers
which have both smallness and largeness properties. They are small since
they are very close, in various meanings, to Sidon sets: the continuous
functions with spectrum in $\Lambda$ have uniformly convergent series,
and their Fourier coefficients are in $\ell_p$ for all $p>1$; moreover,
all the Lebesgue spaces $L^q_\Lambda$ are equal for $q<+\infty$. On
the other hand, they are large in the sense that they are dense in the
Bohr group and that the space of the bounded functions with spectrum in
$\Lambda$ is non separable. So these sets are very different from the
thin sets of integers previously known.

This is an announcement for the paper "A coanalytic rank on super-ergodic
operators" by Mohammed Yahdi.


Abstract: Techniques from Descriptive Set Theory are applied in order
to study the Topological Complexity of families of operators naturally
connected to ergodic operators in infinite dimensional Banach Spaces. The
families of ergodic, uniform-ergodic,Cesaro-bounded and power-bounded
operators are shown to be Borel sets, while the family of super-ergodic
operators is shown to be either coanalytic or Borel according to
specific structures of the Space. Moreover, trees and coanalytic ranks
are introduced to characterize super-ergodic operators as well as spaces
where the above classes of operators do not coincide.

This is an announcement for the paper "A new metric invariant for Banach
spaces" by F. Baudier, N. J. Kalton, and G. Lancien.


Abstract: We show that if the Szlenk index of a Banach space $X$
is larger than the first infinite ordinal $\omega$ or if the Szlenk
index of its dual is larger than $\omega$, then the tree of all finite
sequences of integers equipped with the hyperbolic distance metrically
embeds into $X$. We show that the converse is true when $X$ is assumed
to be reflexive. As an application, we exhibit new classes of Banach
spaces that are stable under coarse-Lipschitz embeddings and therefore
under uniform homeomorphisms.

This is an announcement for the paper "A simple construction of
almost-Euclidean subspaces of $\ell_1^N$ via tensor products" by Piotr
Indyk and Stanislaw Szarek.


Abstract: It has been known since 1970's that the N-dimensional
$\ell_1$-space contains nearly Euclidean subspaces whose dimension
is $\Omega(N)$. However, proofs of existence of such subspaces
were probabilistic, hence non-constructive, which made the results
not-quite-suitable for subsequently discovered applications to
high-dimensional nearest neighbor search, error-correcting codes over
the reals, compressive sensing and other computational problems. In this
paper we present a "low-tech" scheme which, for any $a > 0$, allows to
exhibit nearly Euclidean $\Omega(N)$-dimensional subspaces of $\ell_1^N$
while using only $N^a$ random bits. Our results extend and complement
(particularly) recent work by Guruswami-Lee-Wigderson. Characteristic
features of our approach include (1) simplicity (we use only tensor
products) and (2) yielding arbitrarily small distortions, or "almost
Euclidean" subspaces.

volume-product at the simplex" by Jaegil Kim and Shlomo Reisner.


Abstract: It is proved that the simplex is a strict local minimum for
the volume-product P(K)=min vol(K)vol(K^z), in the Banach-Mazur space of
n-dimensional (classes of ) convex bodies. Here K^z is the polar body
of K about the point z and the minimum is taken over all the points
z in the interior of K. Linear local stability in the neighborhood of
the simplex is proved as well. In the proof, methods that were recently
introduced by Nazarov, Petrov, Ryabogin and Zvavitch are extended to
the non-symmetric setting.

This is an announcement for the paper "Maps of several variables of finite
total variation and Helly-type   selection principles" by Vyacheslav
V. Chistyakov and Yuliya V. Tretyachenko.


Abstract: Given a map from a rectangle in the n-dimensional real Euclidean
space into a metric semigroup, we introduce a concept of the total
variation, which generalizes a similar concept due to T. H. Hildebrandt
(1963) for real functions of two variables and A. S. Leonov (1998) for
real functions of n variables, and study its properties. We show that the
total variation has many classical properties of Jordan's variation such
as the additivity, generalized triangle inequality and sequential lower
semicontinuity. We prove two variants of a pointwise selection principle
of Helly-type, one of which is as follows: a pointwise precompact sequence
of metric semigroup valued maps on the rectangle, whose total variations
are uniformly bounded, admits a pointwise convergent subsequence.

Rostislav Grigorchuk (chair) and Oleg Musin are  organizing a one day 
Workshop on "Asymptotic and Extreme
Properties of Metric Spaces and Groups" for Monday, April 12. This meeting 
is directed to asymptotic and extreme properties of metric spaces, 
manifolds, groups, and groupoids. The home page for this Workshop is at
http://www.math.tamu.edu/~grigorch/conf/2010workshop.html

The Summer 2010 Workshop in Analysis and  Probability at Texas A&M 
University will be in session from July 6 until August 1.  For information 
about the Workshop, consult the Workshop Home Page, whose new URL is

Michael Anshelevich (chair), Jinho Baik, and Roland Speicher are 
organizing
a Concentration Week on "Orthogonal Polynomials in Probability Theory" for
the week of July 6-10. The theme of this Concentration Week is orthogonal 
polynomial techniques in probability theory, especially in the study of 
random matrices, free probability, and multiple stochastic integrals. Baik 
and Speicher will give mini-courses designed to introduce non specialists 
to these topics. The home page for this Concentration Week is at
http://www.math.tamu.edu/~manshel/OPPT/main.html

Ilijas Farah and David Kerr (chair) are organizing a  Concentration Week 
on "Set Theory and Functional Analysis" for the week of July 26-30. The 
broad theme will be recent applications of set theory in functional 
analysis, with emphasis on combinatorial phenomena and classifiability 
problems in operator algebras, dynamics, and Banach space theory. The 
program will include lecture series by Christian Rosendal, David Sherman, 
and Todor Tsankov. The home page for this Concentration Week is at
http://www.math.tamu.edu/~kerr/concweek10/index.html

The Workshop is supported in part by grants from the National Science 
Foundation (NSF). Minorities, women, graduate students, and young 
researchers are especially encouraged to attend.

Banach algebras" by Matthew Daws.


Abstract: A dual Banach algebra is a Banach algebra which is a dual space,
with the multiplication being separately weak$^*$-continuous. We show that
given a unital dual Banach algebra $\mc A$, we can find a reflexive Banach
space $E$, and an isometric, weak$^*$-weak$^*$-continuous homomorphism
$\pi:\mc A\to\mc B(E)$ such that $\pi(\mc A)$ equals its own bicommutant.

Abstract: \begin{abstract} {\it We study the class of all

which $
\Vert \sum_{_{k=1}}^n\xi_k\Vert _{E}\leq Cn^{q}$, where $\{\xi_k\}_{k\ge
1}\subset E$ is an arbitrary sequence of independent identically
distributed symmetric random variables on $[0,1]$ and $C>0$ does not
depend on $n$. We completely characterize all Lorentz spaces having this
property and complement classical results of Rodin and Semenov for Orlicz
spaces $exp(L_p)$, $p\ge 1$.  We further apply our results to the study
of Banach-Saks index sets in r.i.  spaces. \end{abstract}

This is an announcement for the paper "Spaces of small metric cotype"
by Ellen Veomett and Kevin Wildrick.


Abstract: Naor and Mendel's metric cotype extends the notion of the
Rademacher cotype of a Banach space to all metric spaces. Every Banach
space has metric cotype at least 2. We show that any metric space that
is bi-Lipschitz equivalent to an ultrametric space has infinimal metric
cotype 1. We discuss the invariance of metric cotype inequalities under
snowflaking mappings and Gromov-Hausdorff limits, and use these facts
to establish a partial converse of the main result.

This is an announcement for the paper "Sharp weighted estimates for
classical operators" by David Cruz-Uribe, Jose Maria Martell, and
Carlos Perez.


Abstract: We give a new proof of the sharp one weight $L^p$ inequality
for any operator $T$ that can be approximated by Haar shift operators
such as the Hilbert transform, any Riesz transform, the Beurling-Ahlfors
operator. Our proof avoids the Bellman function technique and two weight
norm inequalities. We use instead a recent result due to A. Lerner to
estimate the oscillation of dyadic operators. Our method is flexible
enough to prove the corresponding sharp one-weight norm inequalities
for some operators of harmonic analysis: the maximal singular integrals
associated to $T$, Dyadic square functions and paraproducts, and the
vector-valued maximal operator of C. Fefferman-Stein.  Also we can derive
a very sharp two-weight bump type condition for $T$.

Abstract: We prove a variant of a Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma for
matrices with circulant structure. This approach allows to minimise
the randomness used, is easy to implement and provides good running
times. The price to be paid is the higher dimension of the target
space $k=O(\varepsilon^{-2}\log^3n)$ instead of the classical bound
$k=O(\varepsilon^{-2}\log n)$.

This is an announcement for the paper "The Gelfand widths of
$\ell_p$-balls for $0<p\leq 1$" by Simon Foucart, Alain Pajor, Holger
Rauhut, and Tino Ullrich.


Abstract: We provide sharp lower and upper bounds for the Gelfand widths
of $\ell_p$-balls in the $N$-dimensional $\ell_q^N$-space for $0<p\leq 1$
and $p<q \leq 2$. Such estimates are highly relevant to the novel theory
of compressive sensing, and our proofs rely on methods from this area.

Abstract: For a sequence in $\mathbb{L}^0_+$, we provide simple

Abstract: We continue our study of the Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma and
its connection to circulant matrices started in \cite{HV}. We reduce
the bound on $k$ from $k=O(\varepsilon^{-2}\log^3n)$ proven there to
$k=O(\varepsilon^{-2}\log^2n)$.  Our technique differs essentially from
the one used in \cite{HV}. We employ the discrete Fourier transform and
singular value decomposition to deal with the dependency caused by the
circulant structure.

embedding and the maximal theorem in the context of Banach space
geometry" by Tuomas Hyt\"onen and Mikko Kemppainen.


Abstract: Hyt\"onen, McIntosh and Portal (J. Funct. Anal., 2008) proved
two vector-valued generalizations of the classical Carleson embedding
theorem, both of them requiring the boundedness of a new vector-valued
maximal operator, and the other one also the type p property of the
underlying Banach space as an assumption. We show that these conditions
are also necessary for the respective embedding theorems, thereby
obtaining new equivalences between analytic and geometric properties of
Banach spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "A characterization of Schauder
frames which are near-Schauder bases" by Rui Liu and Bentuo Zheng.


Abstract: A basic problem of interest in connection with the study
of Schauder frames in Banach spaces is that of characterizing those
Schauder frames which can essentially be regarded as Schauder bases. In
this paper, we give a solution to this problem using the notion of
the minimal-associated sequence spaces and the minimal-associated
reconstruction operators for Schauder frames. We prove that a Schauder
frame is a near-Schauder basis if and only if the kernel of the
minimal-associated reconstruction operator contains no copy of $c_0$. In
particular, a Schauder frame of a Banach space with no copy of $c_0$
is a near-Schauder basis if and only if the minimal-associated sequence
space contains no copy of $c_0$. In these cases, the minimal-associated
reconstruction operator has a finite dimensional kernel and the dimension
of the kernel is exactly the excess of the near-Schauder basis. Using
these results, we make related applications on Besselian frames and
near-Riesz bases.

Abstract: In the spirit of the work of Grothendieck, we introduce and

difference with the 2-fold case in which there are four. Using a symmetric
version of a result of Carne we also describe which natural symmetric
tensor norms preserve Banach algebras.

This is an announcement for the paper "Smooth extension of functions
on non-separable Banach spaces" by Mar Jimenez-Sevilla and Luis

Abstract: Let us consider a Banach space $X$ with the property that
every Lipschitz function can be uniformly approximated by Lipschitz and
$C^1$-smooth functions (this is the case either for a weakly compactly
generated Banach space $X$ with a $C^1$-smooth norm, or a Banach space
$X$ bi-Lipschitz homeomorphic to a subset of $c_0(\Gamma)$, for some
set $\Gamma$, such that the coordinate functions of the homeomorphism
are $C^1$-smooth). Then for every closed subspace $Y\subset X$ and every
$C^1$-smooth (Lipschitz) function $f:Y\to\Real$, there is a $C^1$-smooth
(Lipschitz, repectively) extension of $f$ to $X$. An analogous result
can be stated for real-valued functions defined on closed convex subsets
of $X$.

This is an announcement for the paper "The ideal center of the dual of
a Banach lattice" by Mehmet Orhon.


Abstract: Let $E$ be a Banach lattice. Its ideal center $Z(E)$ is embedded
naturally in the ideal center $Z(E')$ of its dual. The embedding may be
extended to a contractive algebra and lattice homomorphism of $Z(E)''$
into $Z(E')$. We show that the extension is onto $Z(E')$ if and only if
$E$ has a topologically full center. (That is, for each $x\in E$, the
closure of $Z(E)x$ is the closed ideal generated by $x$.) The result can
be generalized to the ideal center of the order dual of an Archimedean
Riesz space and in a modified form to the orthomorphisms on the order
dual of an Archimedean Riesz space.

This is an announcement for the paper "Improved bounds in the metric
cotype inequality for Banach spaces" by Ohad Giladi, Manor Mendel,
and Assaf Naor.


Abstract: It is shown that if (X, ||.||_X) is a Banach space with
Rademacher cotype q then for every integer n there exists an even integer
m< n^{1+1/q}$ such that for every f:Z_m^n --> X we have
  \sum_{j=1}^n \Avg_x [ ||f(x+ (m/2) e_j)-f(x) ||_X^q ] < C m^q
  \Avg_{\e,x} [
||f(x+\e)-f(x) ||_X^q ],
  where the expectations are with respect to uniformly chosen x\in
  Z_m^n and
\e\in \{-1,0,1\}^n, and all the implied constants may depend only on
q and the Rademacher cotype q constant of X. This improves the bound
of m< n^{2+\frac{1}{q}} from [Mendel, Naor 2008]. The proof of the
above inequality is based on a ``smoothing and approximation" procedure
which simplifies the proof of the metric characterization of Rademacher
cotype of [Mendel, Naor 2008]. We also show that any such ``smoothing
and approximation" approach to metric cotype inequalities must require
m> n^{(1/2)+(1/q)}.

Abstract: The Kruglov property and the Kruglov operator play an important
role in the study of geometric properties of r.i. function spaces. We
prove that the boundedness of the Kruglov operator in a r.i. space is
equivalent to the uniform boundedness on this space of a sequence of
operators defined by random permutations. It is shown also that there
is no minimal r.i. space with the Kruglov property.

matrices: extreme singular values" by Mark Rudelson and Roman Vershynin.


Abstract: The classical random matrix theory is mostly focused on
asymptotic spectral properties of random matrices as their dimensions
grow to infinity. At the same time many recent applications from convex
geometry to functional analysis to information theory operate with random
matrices in fixed dimensions. This survey addresses the non-asymptotic
theory of extreme singular values of random matrices with independent
entries. We focus on recently developed geometric methods for estimating
the hard edge of random matrices (the smallest singular value).

This is an announcement for the paper "Numerical index of absolute
sums of Banach spaces" by Miguel Martin, Javier Meri, Mikhail Popov,
and Beata Randrianantoanina.


Abstract: We study the numerical index of absolute sums of Banach spaces,
giving general conditions which imply that the numerical index of the sum
is less or equal than the infimum of the numerical indices of the summands
and we provide some examples where the equality holds covering the already
known case of $c_0$-, $\ell_1$- and $\ell_\infty$-sums and giving as
a new result the case of $E$-sums where $E$ has the RNP and $n(E)=1$
(in particular for finite-dimensional $E$ with $n(E)=1$). We also show
that the numerical index of a Banach space $Z$ which contains a dense
increasing union of one-complemented subspaces is greater or equal than
the limit superior of the numerical indices of those subspaces. Using
these results, we give a detailed short proof of the already known fact
that the numerical indices of all infinite-dimensional $L_p(\mu)$-spaces
coincide.

This is an announcement for the paper "L_1 embeddings of the Heisenberg
group and fast estimation of graph isoperimetry" by Assaf Naor.


Abstract: We survey connections between the theory of bi-Lipschitz
embeddings and the Sparsest Cut Problem in combinatorial optimization. The
story of the Sparsest Cut Problem is a striking example of the deep
interplay between analysis, geometry, and probability on the one hand, and
computational issues in discrete mathematics on the other. We explain how
the key ideas evolved over the past 20 years, emphasizing the interactions
with Banach space theory, geometric measure theory, and geometric group
theory. As an important illustrative example, we shall examine recently
established connections to the the structure of the Heisenberg group,
and the incompatibility of its Carnot-Carath\'eodory geometry with the
geometry of the Lebesgue space $L_1$.

Abstract: A linear continuous nonzero operator G:X->Y is a Daugavet
center if every rank-1 operator T:X->Y satisfies ||G+T||=||G||+||T||. We
study the case when either X or Y is a sum $X_1 \oplus_F X_2$ of two
Banach spaces $X_1$ and $X_2$ by some two-dimensional Banach space F. We
completely describe the class of those F such that for some spaces $X_1$
and $X_2$ there exists a Daugavet center acting from $X_1\oplus_F X_2$,
and the class of those F such that for some pair of spaces $X_1$ and
$X_2$ there is a Daugavet center acting into $X_1\oplus_F X_2$. We also
present several examples of such Daugavet centers.

Abstract: The main results of the paper: {\bf (1)} The dual Banach
space $X^*$ contains a linear subspace $A\subset X^*$ such that the
set $A^{(1)}$ of all limits of weak$^*$ convergent bounded nets in
$A$ is a proper norm-dense subset of $X^*$ if and only if $X$ is a
non-quasi-reflexive Banach space containing an infinite-dimensional
subspace with separable dual. {\bf (2)} Let $X$ be a non-reflexive
Banach space. Then there exists a convex subset $A\subset X^*$ such that
$A^{(1)}\neq {\overline{A}\,}^*$ (the latter denotes the weak$^*$ closure
of $A$). {\bf (3)} Let $X$ be a quasi-reflexive Banach space and $A\subset
X^*$ be an absolutely convex subset. Then $A^{(1)}={\overline{A}\,}^*$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Strictly positive support points
of convex sets in $\mathbb{L}^0_+$" by Constantinos Kardaras.


Abstract: We introduce the concept of strictly positive support points
of convex sets in $\mathbb{L}^0_+$, the nonnegative orthant of the
topological vector space $\mathbb{L}^0$ of all random variables built over
a probability space.  Traditional functional-analytic definitions fail,
due to the fact that the topological dual of $\mathbb{L}^0$ is trivial
when the underlying probability space is nonatomic. A necessary and
sufficient condition for an element of a convex set in $\mathbb{L}^0_+$
to be a strictly positive support point of the set is given, inspired
from ideas in financial mathematics.

This is an announcement for the paper "Direct sums and the Szlenk index"
by Philip A. H. Brooker.


Abstract: For $\alpha$ an ordinal and $1<p<\infty$, we determine
a necessary and sufficient condition for an $\ell_p$-direct sum of
operators to have Szlenk index not exceeding $\omega^\alpha$. It
follows from our results that the Szlenk index of an $\ell_p$-direct
sum of operators is determined in a natural way by the behaviour of the
$\varepsilon$-Szlenk indices of its summands. Our methods give similar
results for $c_0$-direct sums.

This is an announcement for the paper "Factorisation properties and
space ideals associated with the Szlenk   index" by Philip A. H. Brooker.


Abstract: For $\alpha$ an ordinal, we study factorisation properties of
the operator ideal $\mathscr{SZ}_\alpha$ of $\alpha$-Szlenk operators. We
obtain quantitative factorisation results for Asplund operators in
terms of the Szlenk index and a partial characterisation of those
ordinals $\alpha$ for which $\mathscr{SZ}_\alpha$ has the factorisation
property. Our investigations lead to the study of a class of space ideals
defined in terms of a renorming property involving the Szlenk index.

This is an announcement for the paper "Spanning and independence
properties of frame partitions" by Bernhard G. Bodmann, Peter G. Casazza,

Abstract: We answer a number of open problems in frame theory concerning
the decomposition of frames into linearly independent and/or spanning
sets. We prove that in finite dimensional Hilbert spaces, Parseval frames
with norms bounded away from 1 can be decomposed into a number of sets
whose complements are spanning, where the number of these sets only
depends on the norm bound. We also prove, assuming the Kadison-Singer
conjecture is true, that this holds for infinite dimensional Hilbert
spaces. Further, we prove a stronger result for Parseval frames whose
norms are uniformly small, which shows that in addition to the spanning
property, the sets can be chosen to be independent, and the complement
of each set to contain a number of disjoint, spanning sets.

This is an announcement for the paper "A generalized unified Pietsch
domination theorem and applications" by Daniel Pellegrino and Joedson
Santos.


Abstract: This paper has a twofold purpose. Firstly, we provide
a new version of the Pietsch Domination Theorem that contains all
the previous versions (to the best of our knowledge) as particular
cases; our second goal is to characterize the arbitrary nonlinear
mappings $f:X_{1}\times\cdots\times X_{n}\rightarrow Y$ that satisfy
a quite natural Pietsch Domination-type theorem around a given point
$(a_{1},...,a_{n})\in$ $X_{1}\times\cdots\times X_{n};$ as it will be
shown, the new Pietsch Domination-type theorem plays a crucial role in
this task. The characterization of such mappings lead to the idea of a
kind of weighted summability for arbitrary mappings.

This is an announcement for the paper "How close is the sample covariance
matrix to the actual covariance matrix?" by Roman Vershynin.


Abstract: Given a distribution in R^n, a classical estimator of its
covariance matrix is the sample covariance matrix obtained from a
sample of N independent points.  What is the optimal sample size N =
N(n) that guarantees estimation with a fixed accuracy in the operator
norm? Suppose the distribution is supported in a centered Euclidean
ball of radius \sqrt{n}. We conjecture that the optimal sample size is
N = O(n) for all distributions with finite fourth moment, and we prove
this up to an iterated logarithmic factor. This problem is motivated
by the optimal theorem of Rudelson which states that N = O(n \log n)
for distributions with finite second moment, and a recent result of
Adamczak, Litvak, Pajor and Tomczak-Jaegermann which guarantees that N =
O(n) for sub-exponential distributions.

This is an announcement for the paper "Characterization of convex
$\mu$-compact sets" by M.E.Shirokov.


Abstract: The class of $\mu$-compact sets can be considered as a natural
extension of the class of compact metrizable subsets of locally convex
spaces, to which the particular results well known for compact sets can
be generalized. This class contains all compact sets as well as many
noncompact sets widely used in applications. In this paper we give a
characterization of a convex $\mu$-compact set in terms of properties of
functions defined on this set.  Namely, we prove that the class of convex
$\mu$-compact sets can be characterized by continuity of the operation
of convex closure of a function (= the double Fenchel transform) with
respect to monotonic pointwise converging sequences of continuous bounded
and of lower semicontinuous lower bounded functions.

This is an announcement for the paper "Improved bounds in the scaled
Enflo type inequality for Banach spaces" by Ohad Giladi and Assaf Naor.


Abstract: It is shown that if (X,||.||_X) is a Banach space with
Rademacher type p \ge 1, then for every integer n there exists an even
integer m < Cn^{2-1/p}log n (C is an absolute constant), such that for
every f:Z_m^n --> X, \Avg_{x,\e}[||f(x+ m\e/2)-f(x)}||_X^p] < C(p,X)
m^p\sum_{j=1}^n\Avg_x[||f(x+e_j)-f(x)||_X^p], where the expectation is
with respect to uniformly chosen x \in Z_m^n and \e \in \{-1,1\}^n, and
C(p,X) is a constant that depends on p and the Rademacher type constant of
X. This improves a bound of m < Cn^{3-2/p} that was obtained in [Mendel,
Naor 2007]. The proof is based on an augmentation of the ``smoothing
and approximation'' scheme, which was implicit in [Mendel, Naor 2007].

Abstract: Multipliers have been recently introduced as operators
for Bessel sequences and frames in Hilbert spaces. These operators
are defined by a fixed multiplication pattern (the symbol) which is
inserted between the analysis and synthesis operators. In this paper,
we will generalize the concept of Bessel multipliers for p-Bessel
and p-Riesz sequences in Banach spaces. It will be shown that bounded
symbols lead to bounded operators. Symbols converging to zero induce
compact operators. Furthermore, we will give sufficient conditions for
multipliers to be nuclear operators. Finally, we will show the continuous
dependency of the multipliers on their parameters.

Abstract: Let $X$ be a Banach space. We prove that, for a large class

$E-\bigcup _{q\in\Gamma}\ell_{q}(X)$, where $\Gamma$ is any subset
of $(0,\infty]$, and $E-c_{0}(X)$ contain closed infinite-dimensional
subspaces of $E$ (if non-empty, of course). This result is applied in
several particular cases and it is also shown that the same technique
can be used to improve a result on the existence of spaces formed by
norm-attaining linear operators.

This is an announcement for the paper "Pervasive algebras and maximal
subalgebras" by Pamela Gorkin and Anthony G. O'Farrell.


Abstract: A uniform algebra $A$ on its Shilov boundary $X$ is {\em
maximal} if $A$ is not $C(X)$ and there is no uniform algebra properly
contained between $A$ and $C(X)$. It is {\em essentially pervasive}
if $A$ is dense in $C(F)$ whenever $F$ is a proper closed subset of the
essential set of $A$. If $A$ is maximal, then it is essentially pervasive
and proper. We explore the gap between these two concepts. We show the
following: (1) If $A$ is pervasive and proper, and has a nonconstant
unimodular element, then $A$ contains an infinite descending chain
of pervasive subalgebras on $X$. (2) It is possible to imbed a copy
of the lattice of all subsets of $\N$ into the family of pervasive
subalgebras of some $C(X)$. (3) In the other direction, if $A$ is
strongly logmodular, proper and pervasive, then it is maximal. (4) This
fails if the word \lq strongly' is removed. We discuss further examples,
involving Dirichlet algebras, $A(U)$ algebras, Douglas algebras, and
subalgebras of $H^\infty(\mathbb{D})$. We develop some new results that
relate pervasiveness, maximality and relative maximality to support sets
of representing measures.

Abstract: We show that if there exists a Lipschitz homeomorphism $T$
between the nets in the Banach spaces $C(X)$ and $C(Y)$ of continuous
real valued functions on compact spaces $X$ and $Y$, then the spaces $X$
and $Y$ are homeomorphic provided $l(T) \times l(T^{-1})<\frac{6}{5}$. By
$l(T)$ and $l(T^{-1})$ we denote the Lipschitz constants of the maps
$T$ and $T^{-1}$. This improves the classical result of Jarosz and the
recent result of Dutrieux and Kalton where the constant obtained is
$\frac{17}{16}$. We also estimate the distance of the map $T$ from the
isometry of the spaces $C(X)$ and $C(Y)$.

every Lipschitz function $f:X\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$, and every
$\varepsilon>0$, there exists a Lipschitz, real analytic function
$g:X\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ such that $|f(x)-g(x)|\leq \varepsilon$
and $\textrm{Lip}(g)\leq C\textrm{Lip}(f)$. This result is new even
in the case when $X$ is a Hilbert space. Furthermore we characterize
the class of Banach spaces having this approximation property as those
Banach spaces $X$ having a Lipschitz, real-analytic separating function
(meaning a Lipschitz, real analytic function $Q:X\to [0, +\infty)$
such that $Q(0)=0$ and $Q(x)\geq \|x\|$ for $\|x\|\geq 1$).

This is an announcement for the paper "Spaces not containing $\ell_1$
have weak aproximate fixed point property" by Ondrej F.K. Kalenda.


Abstract: A nonempty closed convex bounded subset $C$ of a Banach space
is said to have the weak approximate fixed point property if for every
continuous map $f:C\to C$ there is a sequence $\{x_n\}$ in $C$ such that
$x_n-f(x_n)$ converge weakly to $0$. We prove in particular that $C$
has this property whenever it contains no sequence equivalent to the
standard basis of $\ell_1$. As a byproduct we obtain a characterization
of Banach spaces not containing $\ell_1$ in terms of the weak topology.

This is an announcement for the paper "Systems of reproducing kernels
and their biorthogonal: completeness or   non-completeness?" by Anton
Baranov and Yurii Belov.


Abstract: Let $\{v_n\}$ be a complete minimal system in a Hilbert
space $\mathcal{H}$ and let $\{w_m\}$ be its biorthogonal system. It
is well known that $\{w_m\}$ is not necessarily complete. However the
situation may change if we consider systems of reproducing kernels in a
reproducing kernel Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ of analytic functions. We
study the completeness problem for a class of spaces with a Riesz basis
of reproducing kernels and for model subspaces $K_\Theta$ of the Hardy
space. We find a class of spaces where systems biorthogonal to complete
systems of reproducing kernels are always complete, and show that in
general this is not true. In particular we answer the question posed
by N.K. Nikolski and construct a model subspace with a non-complete
biorthogonal system.

This is an announcement for the paper "M-ideals of homogeneous
polynomials" by Veronica Dimant.


Abstract: We study the problem of whether $\mathcal{P}_w(^nE)$, the
space of $n$-homogeneous polynomials which are weakly continuous on
bounded sets, is an $M$-ideal in the space of continuous $n$-homogeneous
polynomials $\mathcal{P}(^nE)$. We obtain conditions that assure this
fact and present some examples. We prove that if $\mathcal{P}_w(^nE)$
is an $M$-ideal in $\mathcal{P}(^nE)$, then $\mathcal{P}_w(^nE)$
coincides with $\mathcal{P}_{w0}(^nE)$ ($n$-homogeneous
polynomials that are weakly continuous on bounded sets at 0). We
introduce a polynomial version of property $(M)$ and derive that if
$\mathcal{P}_w(^nE)=\mathcal{P}_{w0}(^nE)$ and $\mathcal{K}(E)$ is an
$M$-ideal in $\mathcal{L}(E)$, then $\mathcal{P}_w(^nE)$ is an $M$-ideal
in $\mathcal{P}(^nE)$. We also show that if $E^*$ has the approximation
property and $\mathcal{P}_w(^nE)$ is an $M$-ideal in $\mathcal{P}(^nE)$,
then the set of $n$-homogeneous polynomials whose Aron-Berner extension
do not attain the norm is nowhere dense in $\mathcal{P}(^nE)$. Finally,
we face an analogous $M$-ideal problem for block diagonal polynomials.

This is an announcement for the paper "Frequent hypercyclicity, chaos,
and unconditional Schauder decompositions" by Manuel De la Rosa,
Leonhard Frerick, Sophie Grivaux, and Alfredo Peris.


Abstract: We prove that if X is any complex separable infinite-dimensional
Banach space with an unconditional Schauder decomposition, X supports
an operator T which is chaotic and frequently hypercyclic. This result
is extended to complex Frechet spaces with a continuous norm and an
unconditional Schauder decomposition, and also to complex Frechet spaces
with an unconditional basis, which gives a partial positive answer to
a problem posed by Bonet. We also solve a problem of Bes and Chan in
the negative by presenting hypercyclic, but non-chaotic operators on
\C^\N. We extend the main result to C_0-semigroups of operators.  Finally,
in contrast with the complex case, we observe that there are real Banach
spaces with an unconditional basis which support no chaotic operator.

Abstract: The norm of the Riesz projection from $L^\infty(\T^n)$ to
$L^p(\T^n)$ is considered. It is shown that for $n=1$, the norm equals
$1$ if and only if $p\le 4$ and that the norm behaves asymptotically
as $p/(\pi e)$ when $p\to \infty$. The critical exponent $p_n$ is the
supremum of those $p$ for which the norm equals $1$. It is proved that
$2+2/(2^n-1)\le p_n <4$ for $n>1$; it is unknown whether the critical
exponent for $n=\infty$ exceeds $2$.

This is an announcement for the paper "The symmetric Radon-Nikod\'ym
property for tensor norms" by Daniel Carando and Daniel Galicer.


Abstract: We introduce the symmetric-Radon-Nikod\'ym property (sRN
property) for finitely generated s-tensor norms $\beta$ of order
$n$ and prove a Lewis type theorem for s-tensor norms with this
property. As a consequence, if $\beta$ is a projective s-tensor
norm with the sRN property, then for every Asplund space $E$, the
canonical map $\widetilde{\otimes}_{ \beta }^{n,s} E' \rightarrow
\Big(\widetilde{\otimes}_{ \beta' }^{n,s} E \Big)'$ is a metric
surjection.  This can be rephrased as the isometric isomorphism
$\mathcal{Q}^{min}(E) = \mathcal{Q}(E)$ for certain polynomial ideal
$\Q$. We also relate the sRN property of an s-tensor norm with the Asplund
or Radon-Nikod\'{y}m properties of different tensor products. Similar
results for full tensor products are also given. As an application,
results concerning the ideal of $n$-homogeneous extendible polynomials are
obtained, as well as a new proof of the well known isometric isomorphism
between nuclear and integral polynomials on Asplund spaces.

Abstract: We study spaces with directionally asymptotically controlled
ellipsoids approximating the unit ball in finite-dimensions. These
ellipsoids are the unique minimum volume ellipsoids, which contain
the unit ball of the corresponding finite-dimensional subspace. The
directional control here means that we evaluate the ellipsoids with a
given functional of the dual space. The term asymptotical refers to the
fact that we take '$\limsup$' over finite-dimensional subspaces.
  This leads to some isomorphic and isometric characterizations of Hilbert
spaces. An application involving Mazur's rotation problem is given. We
also discuss the complexity of the family of ellipsoids as the dimension
and geometry vary.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the density of Banach {$C(K)$}
spaces with the Grothendieck property" by Christina Brech.


Abstract: Using the method of forcing we prove that consistently
there is a Banach space of continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff
space with the Grothendieck property and with density less than the
continuum. It follows that the classical result stating that ``no
nontrivial complemented subspace of a Grothendieck $C(K)$ space is
separable'' cannot be strengthened by replacing ``is separable'' by
``has density less than that of $l_\infty$'', without using an additional
set-theoretic assumption. Such a strengthening was proved by Haydon,
Levy and Odell, assuming Martin's axiom and the negation of the continuum
hypothesis. Moreover, our example shows that certain separation properties
of Boolean algebras are quite far from the Grothendieck property.

This is an announcement for the paper "Thin-very tall compact scattered
spaces which are hereditarily separable" by Christina Brech and Piotr
Koszmider.


Abstract: We strengthen the property $\Delta$ of a function
$f:[\omega_2]^2\rightarrow [\omega_2]^{\leq \omega}$ considered
by Baumgartner and Shelah. This allows us to consider new types of
amalgamations in the forcing used by Rabus, Juh\'asz and Soukup to
construct thin-very tall compact scattered spaces. We consistently
obtain spaces $K$ as above where $K^n$ is hereditarily separable for each
$n\in\N$. This serves as a counterexample concerning cardinal functions
on compact spaces as well as having some applications in Banach spaces:
the Banach space $C(K)$ is an Asplund space of density $\aleph_2$ which
has no Fr\'echet smooth renorming, nor an uncountable biorthogonal system.

This is an announcement for the paper "On universal Banach spaces of
density continuum" by Christina Brech and Piotr Koszmider.


Abstract: We consider the question whether there exists a Banach space $X$
of density continuum such that every Banach space of density not bigger
than continuum isomorphically embeds into $X$ (called a universal Banach
space of density $\cc$). It is well known that $\ell_\infty/c_0$ is such
a space if we assume the continuum hypothesis. However, some additional
set-theoretic assumption is needed, as we prove in the main result of
this paper that it is consistent with the usual axioms of set-theory
that there is no universal Banach space of density $\cc$. Thus, the
problem of the existence of a universal Banach space of density $\cc$
is undecidable using the usual axioms of set-theory.
  We also prove that it is consistent that there are universal Banach
spaces of density $\cc$, but $\ell_\infty/c_0$ is not among them. This
relies on the proof of the consistency of the nonexistence of an
isomorphic embedding of $C([0,\cc])$ into $\ell_\infty/c_0$.

This is an announcement for the paper "On biorthogonal systems whose
functionals are finitely supported" by Christina Brech and Piotr
Koszmider.


Abstract: We show that for each natural $n>1$ it is consistent that there
is a compact Hausdorff space $K_{2n}$ such that in $C(K_{2n})$ there
is no uncountable (semi)biorthogonal sequence $(f_\xi,\mu_\xi)_{\xi\in
\omega_1}$ where $\mu_\xi$'s are atomic measures with supports consisting
of at most $2n-1$ points of $K_{2n}$, but there are biorthogonal systems
$(f_\xi,\mu_\xi)_{\xi\in \omega_1}$ where $\mu_\xi$'s are atomic measures
with supports consisting of $2n$ points. This complements a result of
Todorcevic that it is consistent that each nonseparable Banach space
$C(K)$ has an uncountable biorthogonal system where the functionals are
measures of the form $\delta_{x_\xi}-\delta_{y_\xi}$ for $\xi<\omega_1$
and $x_\xi,y_\xi\in K$. It also follows that it is consistent that the
irredundance of the Boolean algebra $Clop(K)$ or the Banach algebra
$C(K)$ for $K$ totally disconnected can be strictly smaller than the
sizes of biorthogonal systems in $C(K)$. The compact spaces exhibit an
interesting behaviour with respect to known cardinal functions: the
hereditary density of the powers $K_{2n}^k$ is countable up to $k=n$
and it is uncountable (even the spread is uncountable) for $k>n$.

and A. Peris.


Abstract: We study Li-Yorke chaos and distributional chaos for operators
on Banach spaces. More precisely, we characterize Li-Yorke chaos in
terms of the existence of irregular vectors. Sufficient ``computable''
criteria for distributional and Li-Yorke chaos are given, together with
the existence of dense scrambled sets under some additional conditions. We
also obtain certain spectral properties. Finally, we show that every
infinite dimensional separable Banach space admits a distributionally
chaotic operator which is also hypercyclic.

This is an announcement for the paper "A quantitative version of James'
compactness theorem" by Bernardo Cascales, Ondrej F.K. Kalenda and
Jiri Spurny.


Abstract: We introduce two measures of weak non-compactness $Ja_E$ and
$Ja$ that quantify, via distances, the idea of boundary behind James'
compactness theorem. These measures tell us, for a bounded subset $C$ of
a Banach space $E$ and for given $x^*\in E^*$, how far from $E$ or $C$
one needs to go to find $x^{**}\in \overline{C}^{w^*}\subset E^{**}$
with $x^{**}(x^*)=\sup x^* (C)$. A quantitative version of James'
compactness theorem is proved using $Ja_E$ and $Ja$, and in particular
it yields the following result: {\it Let $C$ be a closed convex bounded
subset of a Banach space $E$ and $r>0$. If there is an element $x_0^{**}$
in $\overline{C}^{w^*}$ whose distance to $C$ is greater than $r$, then
there is $x^*\in E^*$ such that each $x^{**}\in\overline{C}^{w^*}$ at
which $\sup x^*(C)$ is attained has distance to $E$ greater than $r/2$.}
We indeed establish that $Ja_E$ and $Ja$ are equivalent to other measures
of weak non-compactness studied in the literature.  We also collect
particular cases and examples showing when the inequalities between the
different measures of weak non-compactness can be equalities and when
the inequalities are sharp.

Abstract: The inclusion theorem for absolutely summing linear operators
asserts that under certain assumptions on $p_{1},p_{2},q_{1}$ and
$q_{2},$ every absolutely $(q_{1},p_{1})$-summing linear operator is
also absolutely $(q_{2},p_{2}% )$-summing. In this note we obtain some
variants of this result in a completely nonlinear setting.

Abstract: We extend the classical Brunel-Sucheston definition of
the spreading model by introducing the $\mathcal{F}$-sequences
$(x_s)_{s\in\mathcal{F}}$ in a Banach space and the plegma families
in $\mathcal{F}$ where $\mathcal{F}$ is a regular thin family. The
new concept yields a transfinite increasing hierarchy of classes of
1-subsymmetric sequences. We explore the corresponding theory and
we present examples establishing this hierarchy and illustrating the
limitation of the theory.

This is an announcement for the paper "Sets of unit vectors with small
pairwise sums" by Konrad J. Swanepoel.


Abstract: We study the sizes of delta-additive sets of unit vectors
in a d-dimensional normed space: the sum of any two vectors has norm
at most delta. One-additive sets originate in finding upper bounds of
vertex degrees of Steiner Minimum Trees in finite dimensional smooth
normed spaces (Z. F\"uredi, J. C. Lagarias, F. Morgan, 1991). We show
that the maximum size of a delta-additive set over all normed spaces
of dimension d grows exponentially in d for fixed delta>2/3, stays
bounded for delta<2/3, and grows linearly at the threshold delta=2/3.
Furthermore, the maximum size of a 2/3-additive set in d-dimensional
normed space has the sharp upper bound of d, with the single exception
of spaces isometric to three-dimensional l^1 space, where there exists
a 2/3-additive set of four unit vectors.

intersection bodies" by Jaegil Kim, Vladyslav Yaskin and Artem Zvavitch.


Abstract: Busemann's theorem states that the intersection body of an
origin-symmetric convex body is also convex. In this paper we provide
a version of Busemann's theorem for p-convex bodies. We show that
the intersection body of a p-convex body is q-convex for certain
q. Furthermore, we discuss the sharpness of the previous result by
constructing an appropriate example. This example is also used to show
that IK, the intersection body of K, can be much farther away from the
Euclidean ball than K. Finally, we extend these theorems to some general
measure spaces with log-concave and $s$-concave measures

This is an announcement for the paper "Geometric, spectral and asymptotic
properties of averaged products of   projections in Banach spaces"
by Catalin Badea and Yuri I. Lyubich.


Abstract: According to the von Neumann-Halperin and Lapidus theorems,
in a Hilbert space the iterates of products or, respectively, of convex
combinations of orthoprojections are strongly convergent. We extend
these results to the iterates of convex combinations of products of some
projections in a complex Banach space. The latter is assumed uniformly
convex or uniformly smooth for the orthoprojections, or reflexive for
more special projections, in particular, for the hermitian ones. In all
cases the proof of convergence is based on a known criterion in terms
of the boundary spectrum.

method of alternating projections" by Catalin Badea, Sophie Grivaux and

Abstract: A generalization of the cosine of the Friedrichs angle between
two subspaces to a parameter associated to several closed subspaces of
a Hilbert space is given. This parameter is used to analyze the rate of
convergence in the von Neumann-Halperin method of cyclic alternating
projections. General dichotomy theorems are proved, in the Hilbert or
Banach space situation, providing conditions under which the alternative
QUC/ASC (quick uniform convergence versus arbitrarily slow convergence)
holds. Several meanings for ASC are proposed.

This is an announcement for the paper "On strictly singular operators
between separable Banach spaces" by Kevin Beanland and Pandelis Dodos.


Abstract: Let $X$ and $Y$ be separable Banach spaces and denote
by $\sss\sss(X,Y)$ the subset of $\llll(X,Y)$ consisting of all
strictly singular operators. We study various ordinal ranks on the set
$\sss\sss(X,Y)$. Our main results are summarized as follows. Firstly,
we define a new rank $\rs$ on $\sss\sss(X,Y)$.  We show that $\rs$ is
a co-analytic rank and that dominates the rank $\varrho$ introduced by
Androulakis, Dodos, Sirotkin and Troitsky [Israel J. Math., 169 (2009),
221-250]. Secondly, for every $1\leq p<+\infty$ we construct a Banach
space $Y_p$ with an unconditional basis such that $\sss\sss(\ell_p,
Y_p)$ is a co-analytic non-Borel subset of $\llll(\ell_p,Y_p)$ yet every
strictly singular operator $T:\ell_p\to Y_p$ satisfies $\varrho(T)\leq
2$. This answers a question of Argyros.

Abstract: A generalization of Young's inequality for convolution
with sharp constant is conjectured for scenarios where more than two
functions are being convolved, and it is proven for certain parameter
ranges. The conjecture would provide a unified proof of recent entropy
power inequalities of Barron and Madiman, as well as of a (conjectured)
generalization of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality. It is shown that
the generalized Brunn-Minkowski conjecture is true for convex sets;
an application of this to the law of large numbers for random sets
is described.

This is an announcement for the paper "Noncompactness and noncompleteness
in isometries of Lipschitz spaces" by Jesus Araujo and Luis Dubarbie.


Abstract: We solve the following two questions concerning
surjective linear isometries between spaces of Lipschitz functions
$\mathrm{Lip}(X,E)$ and $\mathrm{Lip}(Y,F)$, for strictly convex normed
spaces $E$ and $F$ and metric spaces $X$ and $Y$:
  \begin{enumerate} \item Characterize those base spaces $X$ and $Y$
  for which all isometries are
weighted composition maps.
  \item Give a condition independent of base spaces under which all
  isometries
are weighted composition maps.
  \end{enumerate} In particular, we prove that requirements of
  completeness on $X$ and $Y$ are
not necessary when $E$ and $F$ are not complete, which is in sharp
contrast with results known in the scalar context. We also give the
special form of this kind of isometries.

Abstract: We prove that each non-separable completely metrizable convex
subset of a Frechet space is homeomorphic to a Hilbert space. This
resolves an old (more than 30 years) problem of infinite-dimensional
topology. Combined with the topological classification of separable convex
sets due to Klee, Dobrowoslki and Torunczyk, this result implies that each
closed convex subset of a Frechet space is homemorphic to $[0,1]^n\times
[0,1)^m\times l_2(k)$ for some cardinals $0\le n\le\omega$, $0\le m\le 1$
and $k\ge 0$.

summation operators on trees" by Mikhail Lifshits and Werner Linde.


Abstract: We investigate compactness properties of weighted summation
operators $V_{\alpha,\sigma}$ as mapping from $\ell_1(T)$ into
$\ell_q(T)$ for some $q\in (1,\infty)$. Those operators are defined
by $$ (V_{\alpha,\sigma} x)(t) :=\alpha(t)\sum_{s\succeq t}\sigma(s)
x(s)\,,\quad t\in T\;, $$ where $T$ is a tree with induced partial
order $t \preceq s$ (or $s \succeq t$) for $t,s\in T$. Here $\alpha$
and $\sigma$ are given weights on $T$. We introduce a metric $d$
on $T$ such that compactness properties of $(T,d)$ imply two--sided
estimates for $e_n(V_{\alpha,\sigma})$, the (dyadic) entropy numbers
of $V_{\alpha,\sigma}$. The results are applied for concrete trees as
e.g.~moderate increasing, biased or binary trees and for weights with
$\alpha(t)\sigma(t)$ decreasing either polynomially or exponentially. We
also give some probabilistic applications for Gaussian summation schemes
on trees.

This is an announcement for the paper "Weakly convex sets and modulus
of nonconvexity" by Maxim V. Balashov and Dusan Repovs.


Abstract: We consider a definition of a weakly convex set which is a
generalization of the notion of a weakly convex set in the sense of Vial
and a proximally smooth set in the sense of Clarke, from the case of the
Hilbert space to a class of Banach spaces with the modulus of convexity
of the second order. Using the new definition of the weakly convex set
with the given modulus of nonconvexity we prove a new retraction theorem
and we obtain new results about continuity of the intersection of two
continuous set-valued mappings (one of which has nonconvex images) and new
affirmative solutions of the splitting problem for selections. We also
investigate relationship between the new definition and the definition
of a proximally smooth set and a smooth set.

This is an announcement for the paper "Best approximation in numerical
radius" by Asuman Guven Aksoy and Grzegorz Lewicki.


Abstract: Let $X$ be a reflexive Banach space. In this paper we give a
necessary and sufficient condition for an operator $T\in \mathcal{K}(X)$
to have the best approximation in numerical radius from the convex
subset $\mathcal{U} \subset \mathcal{K}(X),$ where $\mathcal{K}(X)$
denotes the set of all linear, compact operators from $X$ into $X.$ We
will also present an application to minimal extensions with respect to
the numerical radius. In particular some results on best approximation
in norm will be generalized to the case of the numerical radius.

of a separable almost Daugavet space $X$ such that the quotient space
$X/Z$ contains no copy of $\ell_1$, then $Z$ has the almost Daugavet
property, too.

This is an announcement for the paper "Representation of Ito integrals
by Lebesgue/Bochner integrals" by Qi Lu, Jiongmin Yong and Xu Zhang.


Abstract: In [22], it was proved that as long as the integrand has
certain properties, the corresponding It\^o integral can be written as
a (parameterized) Lebesgue integral (or a Bochner integral). In this
paper, we show that such a question can be answered in a more positive
and refined way. To do this, we need to characterize the dual of the
Banach space of some vector-valued stochastic processes having different
integrability with respect to the time variable and the probability
measure. The later can be regarded as a variant of the classical Riesz
Representation Theorem, and therefore it will be useful in studying
other problems. Some remarkable consequences are presented as well,
including a reasonable definition of exact controllability for stochastic
differential equations and a condition which implies a Black-Scholes
market to be complete.

Abstract: We prove that the Kalton-Peck twisted sum $Z_2^n$ of

n$ and bounded GL constant. This is the first concrete example which
shows different explicit orders of growth in the GL and GL-l.u.st.\

Abstract: We study the typical behavior of bounded linear operators

norm, strong-star, strong, weak polynomial and weak topologies. In
particular, we investigate typical spectral properties, the problem of
unitary equivalence of typical operators, and their embeddability into
C_0-semigroups. Our results provide information on the applicability of
Baire category methods in the theory of Hilbert space operators.

Abstract: Let a random simplex in a d-dimensional convex body be the
convex hull of d+1 random points from the body. We study the following
question: As a function of the convex body, is the expected volume of
a random simplex monotone non-decreasing under inclusion? We show that
this holds if d is 1 or 2, and does not hold if d >= 4. We also prove
similar results for higher moments of the volume of a random simplex, in
particular for the second moment, which corresponds to the determinant of
the covariance matrix of the convex body.  These questions are motivated
by the slicing conjecture.

Abstract: We show that if the conclusion of the well known Stampacchia
Theorem, on variational inequalities, holds on a Banach space X, then X
is isomorphic to a Hilbert space. Motivated by this we obtain a relevant
result concerning self-dual Banach spaces and investigate some connections
between existing notions of orthogonality and self-duality. Moreover, we
revisit the notion of the cosine of a linear operator and show that it can
be used to characterize Hilbert space structure. Finally, we present some
consequences of our results to quadratic forms and to evolution triples.

This is an announcement for the paper "A characterization of inner
product spaces" by Mohammad Sal Moslehian and John M. Rassias.


Abstract: In this paper we present a new criterion on
characterization of real inner product spaces. We conclude
that a real normed space $(X, \|\cdot\|)$ is an inner product
space if $$\sum_{\varepsilon_i \in \{-1,1\}} \left\|x_1 +
\sum_{i=2}^k\varepsilon_ix_i\right\|^2=\sum_{\varepsilon_i \in \{-1,1\}}
\left(\|x_1\| + \sum_{i=2}^k\varepsilon_i\|x_i\|\right)^2\,,$$ for some
positive integer $k\geq 2$ and all $x_1, \ldots, x_k \in X$. Conversely,
if $(X, \|\cdot\|)$ is an inner product space, then the equality above
holds for all $k\geq 2$ and all $x_1, \ldots, x_k \in X$.

My son called and  said that Nigel's daughter told him that Nigel died.
Nigel suffered a severe stroke a couple of days ago and did not recover.
It is a devastating loss for all of us.

This is an announcement for the paper "Dvoretzky type theorems for
multivariate polynomials and sections of convex bodies" by V.L. Dolnikov
and R.N. Karasev.


Abstract: In this paper we prove the Gromov--Milman conjecture (the
Dvoretzky type theorem) for homogeneous polynomials on $\mathbb R^n$,
and improve bounds on the number $n(d,k)$ in the analogous conjecture
for odd degrees $d$ (this case is known as the Birch theorem) and
complex polynomials.
  We also consider a stronger conjecture on the homogeneous polynomial fields
in the canonical bundle over real and complex Grassmannians. The latter
conjecture is much stronger and false in general, but it is proved in
the cases of $d=2$ (for $k$'s of certain type), odd $d$, the complex
Grassmannian (for odd and even $d$ and any $k$). Corollaries for the
John ellipsoid of projections or sections of a convex body are deduced
from the case $d=2$ of the polynomial field conjecture.

Abstract: We introduce the concept of average best $m$-term
approximation widths with respect to a probability measure on the unit
ball of $\ell_p^n$. We estimate these quantities for the embedding
$id:\ell_p^n\to\ell_q^n$ with $0<p\le q\le \infty$ for the normalized
cone and surface measure. Furthermore, we consider certain tensor product
weights and show that a typical vector with respect to such a measure
exhibits a strong compressible (i.e. nearly sparse) structure.

This is an announcement for the paper "The numerical measure of a complex
matrix" by Thierry Gallay and Denis Serre.


Abstract: We introduce and carefully study a natural probability measure
over the numerical range of a complex matrix $A \in M_n(\C)$. This
numerical measure $\mu_A$ can be defined as the law of the random
variable $<AX,X> \in \C$ when the vector $X \in \C^n$ is uniformly
distributed on the unit sphere. If the matrix $A$ is normal, we show
that $\mu_A$ has a piecewise polynomial density $f_A$, which can be
identified with a multivariate $B$-spline. In the general (nonnormal)
case, we relate the Radon transform of $\mu_A$ to the spectrum of a
family of Hermitian matrices, and we deduce an explicit representation
formula for the numerical density which is appropriate for theoretical
and computational purposes. As an application, we show that the density
$f_A$ is polynomial in some regions of the complex plane which can be
characterized geometrically, and we recover some known results about
lacunas of symmetric hyperbolic systems in $2+1$ dimensions. Finally,
we prove under general assumptions that the numerical measure of a
matrix $A \in M_n(\C)$ concentrates to a Dirac mass as the size $n$
goes to infinity.

Abstract: In this note we show that a recent new proof of
Bohnenblust-Hille inequality, due to Defant et al, combined with the
better known constant for Littlewood 4/3 theorem and the optimal
constants of Khinchin inequality, due to Haagerup, provide quite
better estimates for the constants involved in the Bohnenblust-Hille
inequality. For example, if $2\leq m\leq13,$ we show that the constants
$C_{m}=2^{(m-1)/2}$ can be replaced by $2^{\frac{m^{2}+m-6}{4m}%
}K_{G}^{2/m}$, which are substantially better than $C_{m}$ (here $K_{G}$
denotes the complex Grothendieck

Edward Odell, Thomas Schlumprecht, and Andras  Zsak.


Abstract: We prove two dichotomy theorems about sequences of operators
into $L_1$ given by random matrices. In the second theorem we assume
that the entries of each random matrix form a sequence of independent,
symmetric random variables. Then the corresponding sequence of operators
either uniformly factor the identity operators on $\ell_1^k$ $(k\in\mathbb
N$) or uniformly approximately factor through $\mathrm{c}_0$. The
first theorem has a slightly weaker conclusion still related to
factorization properties but makes no assumption on the random
matrices. Indeed, it applies to operators defined on an arbitrary
sequence of Banach spaces. These results provide information on the
closed ideal structure of the Banach algebra of all operators on the
space $\big(\bigoplus_{n=1}^\infty\ell_1^n \big)_{\mathrm{c}_0}$.

Abstract: Given an operator ideal I, a Banach space E has the
I-approximation property if operators on E can be uniformly approximated
on compact subsets of E by operators belonging to I. In this paper the I-
approximation property is studied in projective tensor products, spaces
of linear functionals, spaces of homogeneous polynomials (in particular,
spaces of linear operators), spaces of holomorphic functions and their
preduals.

Dear Colleagues,

The Department of Mathematics of the University of Missouri, Columbia, 
MO, is in the process of establishing a website in honor of Nigel 
Kalton, who passed away recently.

The website will consist of several parts. We hope to be able to post 
downloadable pdf files of his works, supply a list of his students and 
co-authors, indicate his editorial activity, establish a photo gallery, 
and comment on some of his other significant activities, such as playing 
chess. We also plan to have a section in which students, collaborators, 
and friends will be able to recall fond reminiscences and express their 
appreciation of Nigel.

Apart from alerting you to this activity, the purpose of this message is 
to solicit contributions you may be able to make to this Kalton Memorial 
Website, such as, photos, stories, reminiscences, etc.

Please send all material to

This is an announcement for the paper "On the existence of J-class
operators" by Amir Nasseri.


Abstract: In this note we answer in the negative the question raised by
G.Costakis and A.Manoussos, whether there exists a J-class operator on
every non-separable Banach space. In par- ticular we show that there
exists a non-separable Banach space constructed by A.Arvanitakis,
S.Argyros and A.Tolias such that the J-set of every operator on this
space has empty interior for each non-zero vector. On the other hand,
on non-separable spaces which are reflexive there always exist a J-class
operator.

This is an announcement for the paper "A note on Mahler's conjecture"
by Shlomo Reisner, Carsten Schutt and Elisabeth M. Werner.


Abstract: Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with Santal\'o
point at $0$. We show that if $K$ has a point on the boundary with
positive generalized Gau{\ss} curvature, then the volume product $|K|
|K^\circ|$ is not minimal. This means that a body with minimal volume
product has Gau{\ss} curvature equal to $0$ almost everywhere and thus
suggests strongly that a minimal body is a polytope.

This is an announcement for the paper "Subspace structure of some operator
and Banach spaces" by Timur Oikhberg and Christian Rosendal.


Abstract: We construct a family of separable Hilbertian operator spaces,
such that the relation of complete isomorphism between the subspaces of
each member of this family is complete $\ks$. We also investigate some
interesting properties of completely unconditional bases of the spaces
from this family. In the Banach space setting, we construct a space for
which the relation of isometry of subspaces is equivalent to equality
of real numbers.

Abstract: For an operator $T \in B(X,Y)$, we denote by $a_m(T)$,
$c_m(T)$, $d_m(T)$, and $t_m(T)$ its approximation, Gelfand, Kolmogorov,
and absolute numbers. We show that, for any infinite dimensional Banach
spaces $X$ and $Y$, and any sequence $\alpha_m \searrow 0$, there exists
$T \in B(X,Y)$ for which the inequality $$ 3 \alpha_{\lceil m/6 \rceil}
\geq a_m(T) \geq \max\{c_m(t), d_m(T)\} \geq \min\{c_m(t), d_m(T)\}
\geq t_m(T) \geq \alpha_m/9 $$ holds for every $m \in \N$. Similar
results are obtained for other $s$-scales.

property" by Ramon van Handel.


Abstract: Let F be a separable uniformly bounded family of measurable
functions on a standard measurable space, and let N_{[]}(F,\epsilon,\mu)
be the smallest number of \epsilon-brackets in L^1(\mu) needed to cover
F. The following are equivalent:
  1. F is a universal Glivenko-Cantelli class.
  2. N_{[]}(F,\epsilon,\mu)<\infty for every \epsilon>0 and every
  probability
measure \mu.
  3. F is totally bounded in L^1(\mu) for every probability measure
  \mu.  4. F does not contain a Boolean \sigma-independent sequence.
  In particular, universal Glivenko-Cantelli classes are uniformity
  classes for
general sequences of almost surely convergent random measures.

Abstract: We answer in the affirmative the following question raised
by H. H. Corson in 1961: "Is it possible to cover every Banach space
X by bounded convex sets with nonempty interior in such a way that no
point of X belongs to infinitely many of them?" Actually we show the way
to produce in every Banach space X a bounded convex tiling of order 2,
i.e. a covering of X by bounded convex closed sets with nonempty interior
(tiles) such that the interiors are pairwise disjoint and no point of
X belongs to more than two tiles.

been submitted or not. The titles are:
- Hermitian operators on complex Banach lattices and a problem of  
Garth Dales.
- Uniform homeomorphisms of Banach spaces and asymptotic structure.
- Examples of uniformly homeomorphic Banach spaces.
- The uniform structure of Banach spaces.
We would be grateful for any information on the status of these  
papers, which will be submitted in Nigel's name if needed. Please  
kindly write to casazzap at missouri.edu and to godefroy at math.jussieu.fr  
if you know something. Your help is appreciated.

This is an announcement for the paper "Property $(\beta)$ and uniform
quotient maps" by Vegard Lima and N. Lovasoa Randrianarivony.


Abstract: In 1999, Bates, Johnson, Lindenstrauss, Preiss and Schechtman
asked whether a Banach space that is a uniform quotient of $\ell_p$,
$1 < p \neq 2 < \infty$, must be isomorphic to a linear quotient of
$\ell_p$. We apply the geometric property $(\beta)$ of Rolewicz to the
study of uniform and Lipschitz quotient maps, and answer the above
question positively for the case $1<p<2$. We also give a necessary
condition for a Banach space to have $c_0$ as a uniform quotient.

Schauder's theorem" by Volker Runde.


Abstract: Schauder's theorem asserts that a bounded linear operator
between Banach spaces is compact if ad only if its adjoint is. We give a
new proof of this result, which is both short and completely elementary
in the sense that it does not depend on anything beyond basic functional
analysis, i.e., the Hahn--Banach theorem and some of its consequences;
in particular, we avoid the Arzela--Ascoli theorem (and any kind of
related diagonal argument).

This is an announcement for the paper "Points fixes des applications
compactes dans les espaces ULC" by Robert Cauty.


Abstract: A topological space is locally equiconnected if there exists
a neighborhood $U$ of the diagonal in $X\times X$ and a continuous
map $\lambda:U\times[0,1]\to X$ such that $\lambda(x,y,0)=x$,
$\lambda(x,y,1)=y$ et $\lambda(x,x,t)=x$ for $(x,y)\in U$ and $(x,t)\in
X\times[0,1]$. This class contains all ANRs, all locally contractible
topological groups and the open subsets of convex subsets of linear
topological spaces. In a series of papers, we extended the fixed point
theory of compact continuous maps, which was well developped for ANRs, to
all separeted locally equiconnected spaces. This generalization includes
a proof of Schauder's conjecture for compact maps of convex sets. This
paper is a survey of that work. The generalization has two steps: the
metrizable case, and the passage from the metrizable case to the general
case. The metrizable case is, by far, the most difficult. To treat this
case, we introduced in [4] the notion of algebraic ANR. Since the proof
that metrizable locally equiconnected spaces are algebraic ANRs is rather
difficult, we give here a detaled sketch of it in the case of a compact
convex subset of a metrizable t.v.s.. The passage from the metrizable
case to the general case uses a free functor and representations of
compact spaces as inverse limits of some special inverse systems of
metrizable compacta.

This is an announcement for the paper "Definable operators on Hilbert
spaces" by Isaac Goldbring.


Abstract: Let H be an infinite-dimensional (real or complex) Hilbert
space, viewed as a metric structure in its natural signature. We
characterize the definable linear operators on H as exactly the "scalar
plus compact" operators.

This is an announcement for the paper "Adjoint operators on Banach spaces"
by Tepper L Gill, Francis Mensah and Woodford W. Zachary.


Abstract: In this paper, we report on new results related to the
existence of an adjoint for operators on separable Banach spaces and
discuss a few interesting applications. (Some results are new even for
Hilbert spaces.) Our first two applications provide an extension of
the Poincar\'{e} inequality and the Stone-von Neumann version of the
spectral theorem for a large class of $C_0$-generators of contraction
semigroups on separable Banach spaces. Our third application provides a
natural extension of the Schatten-class of operators to all separable
Banach spaces. As a part of this program, we introduce a new class of
separable Banach spaces. As a side benefit, these spaces also provide a
natural framework for the (rigorous) construction of the path integral
as envisioned by Feynman.

This is an announcement for the paper "Invertibility threshold for
$H^\infty$ trace algebras, and effective   matrix inversions" by Nikolai
Nikolski and Vasily Vasyunin.


Abstract: For a given $\delta$, $0<\delta<1$, a
Blaschke sequence $\sigma=\{\lambda_j\}$ is constructed
such that every function $f$, $f\in H^\infty$, having
$\delta<\delta_f=\inf_{\lambda\in\sigma}|f(\lambda)|\le\|f\|_\infty\le1$
is invertible in the trace algebra $H^\infty|\sigma$ (with a norm estimate
of the inverse depending on $\delta_f$ only), but there exists $f$ with
$\delta=\delta_f\le\|f\|_\infty\le1$, which does not. As an application,
a counterexample to a stronger form of the Bourgain--Tzafriri restricted
invertibility conjecture for bounded operators is exhibited, where an
``orthogonal (or unconditional) basis'' is replaced by a ``summation
block orthogonal basis''.

This is an announcement for the paper "Extracting long basic sequences
from systems of dispersed vectors" by Jarno Talponen.


Abstract: We study Banach spaces satisfying some geometric or
structural properties involving tightness of transfinite sequences of
nested linear subspaces. These properties are much weaker than WCG and
closely related to Corson's property (C). Given a transfinite sequence
of normalized vectors, which is dispersed or null in some sense, we
extract a subsequence which is a biorthogonal sequence, or even a weakly
null monotone basic sequence, depending on the setting. The Separable
Complementation Property is established for spaces with an M-basis under
rather weak geometric properties. We also consider an analogy of the
Baire Category Theorem for the lattice of closed linear subspaces.

$id:\ell_p^n\to\ell_q^n$ with $0<p\le q\le \infty$ for the normalized

This is an announcement for the paper "Interpolating thin-shell and
sharp large-deviation estimates for   isotropic log-concave measures"
by Olivier Guedon and Emanuel Milman.


Abstract: Given an isotropic random vector $X$ with log-concave density
in Euclidean space $\Real^n$, we study the concentration properties
of $|X|$. We show in particular that: \[ \P(|X| \geq (1+t) \sqrt{n})
\leq \exp(-c n^{\frac{1}{2}} \min(t^3,t)) \;\;\; \forall t > 0 ~,
\] for some universal constant $c>0$. This improves the best known
deviation results above the expectation on the thin-shell and mesoscopic
scales due to Fleury and Klartag, respectively, and recovers the sharp
large-deviation estimate of Paouris. Another new feature of our estimate
is that it improves when $X$ is $\psi_\alpha$ ($\alpha \in (1,2]$), in
precise agreement with the sharp Paouris estimates. The upper bound on
the thin-shell width $\sqrt{\Var(|X|)}$ we obtain is of the order of
$n^{1/3}$, and improves down to $n^{1/4}$ when $X$ is $\psi_2$. Our
estimates thus continuously interpolate between a new best known
thin-shell estimate and the sharp Paouris large-deviation one.

This is an announcement for the paper "Maximal theorems and square
functions for analytic operators on   Lp-spaces" by Christian Le Merdy
and Quanhua Xu.


Abstract: Let T : Lp --> Lp be a contraction, with p strictly between
1 and infinity, and assume that T is analytic, that is, there exists a
constant K such that n\norm{T^n-T^{n-1}} < K for any positive integer
n. Under the assumption that T is positive (or contractively regular), we
establish the boundedness of various Littlewood-Paley square functions
associated with T. As a consequence we show maximal inequalities
of the form $\norm{\sup_{n\geq 0}\, (n+1)^m\bigl\vert T^n(T-I)^m(x)
\bigr\vert}_p\,\lesssim\, \norm{x}_p$, for any nonnegative integer
m. We prove similar results in the context of noncommutative Lp-spaces.
We also give analogs of these maximal inequalities for bounded analytic
semigroups, as well as applications to R-boundedness properties.

This is an announcement for the paper "Some remarks on stronger versions
of the Boundary Problem for Banach   spaces" by Jan-David Hardtke.


Abstract: Let $X$ be a real Banach space. A subset $B$ of the dual unit
sphere of $X$ is said to be a boundary for $X$, if every element of $X$
attains its norm on some functional in $B$. The well-known Boundary
Problem originally posed by Godefroy asks whether a bounded subset of
$X$ which is compact in the topology of pointwise convergence on $B$ is
already weakly compact. This problem was recently solved by H.Pfitzner
in the positive. In this note we collect some stronger versions of
the solution to the Boundary Problem, most of which are restricted to
special types of Banach spaces. We shall use the results and techniques
of Pfitzner, Cascales et al., Moors and others.

This is an announcement for the paper "Geometry of the Banach spaces
C(beta mathbb N times K, l_p) for compact   metric spaces K" by Dale
E. Alspach and Eloi Medina Galego .


Abstract: In this paper we provide the complete isomorphic classification

functions, 1 <= p < infinity, defined on the topological product of
the Stone-Cech compactification of the natural numbers mathbb N and an
arbitrary infinite compact metric space K.
  In order to do this, we first prove that c_0 is the only infinite
  dimensional
separable C(K) space, Z, up to an isomorphism, which satisfies each one
of the following statements:
  (1) Z is a quotient of C(beta mathbb N, l_p) for every 1< p< infinity.
  (2) Z is isomorphic to a complemented subspace of C(beta mathbb N,
  l_1).  (3) C(beta mathbb N, l_p) is isomorphic to the injective tensor
  product of
itself and Z, for every 1 <= p < infinity.

This is an announcement for the paper "Hereditarily indecomposable,
separable L_\infty spaces with \ell_1 dual   having few operators,
but not very few operators" by Matthew Tarbard.


Abstract: Given a natural number $k \geq 2$, we construct a hereditarily
indecomposable, $\mathscr{L}_{\infty}$ space, $X_k$ with dual isomorphic
to $\ell_1$. We exhibit a non-compact, strictly singular operator $S$
on $X_k$, with the property that $S^k = 0$ and $S^j (0 \leq j \leq k-1)$
is not a compact perturbation of any linear combination of $S^l, l \neq
j$. Moreover, every bounded linear operator on this space has the form
$\sum_{i=0}^{k-1} \lambda_i S^i +K$ where the $\lambda_i$ are scalars
and $K$ is compact. In particular, this construction answers a question
of Argyros and Haydon ( "A hereditarily indecomposable space that solves
the scalar-plus-compact problem").

Abstract: We show that the absolute numerical index of the space
$L_p(\mu)$ is $p^{-\frac{1}{p}} q^{-\frac{1}{q}}$ (where $1/p+1/q=1$). In
other words, we prove that $$ \sup\left\{\int |x|^{p-1}|Tx|\, d\mu
\, : \ x\in L_p(\mu),\,\|x\|_p=1\right\} \,\geq \,p^{-\frac{1}{p}}
q^{-\frac{1}{q}}\,\|T\| $$ for every $T\in \mathcal{L}(L_p(\mu))$ and that
this inequality is the best possible when the dimension of $L_p(\mu)$
is greater than one. We also give lower bounds for the best constant
of equivalence between the numerical radius and the operator norm in
$L_p(\mu)$ for atomless $\mu$ when restricting to rank-one operators or
narrow operators.

we construct a separable Banach space $X$ with the Schur property
that cannot be renormed to have a certain quantitative form of weak

This is an announcement for the paper "Sharp bounds on the rate of
convergence of the empirical covariance   matrix" by Radoslaw Adamczak,
Alexander E. Litvak, Alain Pajor, and Nicole  Tomczak-Jaegermann.


Abstract: Let $X_1,..., X_N\in\R^n$ be independent centered random
vectors with log-concave distribution and with the identity as covariance
matrix. We show that with overwhelming probability at least $1 - 3
\exp(-c\sqrt{n}\r)$ one has $
  \sup_{x\in S^{n-1}} \Big|\frac{1/N}\sum_{i=1}^N (|<X_i, x>|^2 - \E|<X_i,
x>|^2\r)\Big|
  \leq C \sqrt{\frac{n/N}},$ where $C$ is an absolute positive
  constant. This
result is valid in a more general framework when the linear forms
$(<X_i,x>)_{i\leq N, x\in S^{n-1}}$ and the Euclidean norms $(|X_i|/\sqrt
n)_{i\leq N}$ exhibit uniformly a sub-exponential decay. As a consequence,
if $A$ denotes the random matrix with columns $(X_i)$, then with
overwhelming probability, the extremal singular values $\lambda_{\rm
min}$ and $\lambda_{\rm max}$ of $AA^\top$ satisfy the inequalities $ 1 -
C\sqrt{{n/N}} \le {\lambda_{\rm min}/N} \le \frac{\lambda_{\rm max}/N}
\le 1 + C\sqrt{{n/N}} $ which is a quantitative version of Bai-Yin
theorem \cite{BY} known for random matrices with i.i.d. entries.

of metrizable spaces" by Taras Banakh and Arkady Leiderman.


Abstract: We prove that each metrizable space (of cardinality less
or equal to continuum) has a (first countable) uniform Eberlein
compactification and each scattered metrizable space has a scattered
hereditarily paracompact compactification. Each compact scattered
hereditarily paracompact space is uniform Eberlein and belongs to
the smallest class of compact spaces, that contain the empty set, the
singleton, and is closed under producing the Aleksandrov compactification
of the topological sum of a family of compacta from that class.

This is an announcement for the paper "A $c_0$ saturated Banach space
with tight structure" by Spiros A. Argyros and Giorgos Petsoulas.


Abstract: It is shown that variants of the HI methods could yield objects
closely connected to the classical Banach spaces. Thus we present a new
$c_0$ saturated space, denoted as $\mathfrak{X}_0$, with rather tight
structure. The space $\mathfrak{X}_0$ is not embedded into a space with
an unconditional basis and its complemented subspaces have the following
structure. Everyone is either of type I, namely, contains an isomorph of
$\mathfrak{X}_0$ itself or else is isomorphic to a subspace of $c_0$ (type
II). Furthermore for any analytic decomposition of $\mathfrak{X}_0$ into
two subspaces one is of type I and the other is of type II. The operators
of $\mathfrak{X}_0$ share common features with those of HI spaces.

Abstract: This paper present an overview of some of the applications of
the martingale transform inequalities of D.L.~Burkholder to $L^p$-bounds
for singular integrals concentrating on $L^p$-bounds for the Hilbert,
Riesz, Beurling-Ahlfors transforms and other multipliers obtained by
projections (conditional expectations) of transformations of stochastic
integrals. The aim is to obtain optimal, or near optimal, bounds in
these inequalities.
  Connections to other areas of mathematics where these inequalities
and the techniques to prove them have become of considerable interest
in recent years, are also discussed.

in addition, there exists a subspace of an Asplund generated space which
is not Asplund generated which has density character exactly b.

This is an announcement for the paper "Strictly convex norms and topology"
by Jose Orihuela, Richard J. Smith, and Stanimir Troyanski.


Abstract: We introduce a new topological property called (*) and the
corresponding class of topological spaces, which includes spaces with
$G_\delta$-diagonals and Gruenhage spaces. Using (*), we characterise
those Banach spaces which admit equivalent strictly convex norms, and
give an internal topological characterisation of those scattered compact
spaces $K$, for which the dual Banach space $C(K)^*$ admits an equivalent
strictly convex dual norm. We establish some relationships between (*)
and other topological concepts, and the position of several well-known
examples in this context. For instance, we show that $C(\mathcal{K})^*$
admits an equivalent strictly convex dual norm, where $\mathcal{K}$
is Kunen's compact space. Also, under the continuum hypothesis CH,
we give an example of a compact scattered non-Gruenhage space having (*).

This is an announcement for the paper "On the continuity and regularity
of convex extensions" by Orest Bucicovschi and Jiri Lebl.


Abstract: We study continuity and regularity of convex extensions of
functions from a compact set $C$ to its convex hull $K$. We show that
if $C$ contains the relative boundary of $K$, and $f$ is a continuous
convex function on $C$, then $f$ extends to a continuous convex function
on $K$ using the standard convex roof construction. In fact, a necessary
and sufficient condition for $f$ to extend from any set to a continuous
convex function on the convex hull is that $f$ extends to a continuous
convex function on the relative boundary of the convex hull. We give
examples showing that the hypotheses in the results are necessary. In
particular, if $C$ does not contain the entire relative boundary of
$K$, then there may not exist any continuous convex extension of $f$.
Finally, when $\partial K$ and $f$ are $C^1$ we give a necessary and
sufficient condition for the convex roof construction to be $C^1$ on all
of $K$. We also discuss an application of the convex roof construction
in quantum computation.

This is an announcement for the paper "Positive definite metric spaces"
by Mark W. Meckes.


Abstract: Magnitude is a numerical invariant of finite metric spaces,
recently introduced by T.\ Leinster, which is analogous in precise
senses to the cardinality of finite sets or the Euler characteristic of
topological spaces.  It has been extended to infinite metric spaces in
several a priori distinct ways. This paper develops the theory of a class
of metric spaces, positive definite metric spaces, for which magnitude
is more tractable than in general.  In particular, it is shown that all
the proposed definitions of magnitude coincide for compact positive
definite metric spaces. Some additional results are proved about the
behavior of magnitude as a function of such spaces, and a number of
examples of positive definite metric spaces are found, including all
subsets of $L_p$ for $p\le 2$ and Euclidean spheres equipped with the
geodesic distance. Finally, some facts about the magnitude of compact
subsets of $\ell_p^n$ for $p \le 2$ are proved, generalizing results of
Leinster for $p=1,2$, using properties of these spaces which are somewhat
stronger than positive definiteness.
