This is an announcement for the paper "Slicing inequalities for measures of convex bodies" by Alexander Koldobsky. Abstract: We consider a generalization of the hyperplane problem to arbitrary measures in place of volume and to sections of lower dimensions. We prove this generalization for unconditional convex bodies and for duals of bodies with bounded volume ratio. We also prove it for arbitrary symmetric convex bodies under the condition that the dimension of sections is less than $\lambda n$ for some $\lambda\in (0,1).$ The constant depends only on $\lambda.$ Finally, we show that the behavior of the minimal sections for some measures may be different from the case of volume.

This is an announcement for the paper "An application of virtual degeneracy to two-valued subsets of $L_{p}$-spaces" by Anthony Weston. Abstract: Suppose $0 < p < 2$ and that $(\Omega, \mu)$ is a measure space for which $L_{p}(\Omega, \mu)$ is at least two-dimensional. Kelleher, Miller, Osborn and Weston have shown that if a subset $B$ of $L_{p}(\Omega, \mu)$ does not have strict $p$-negative type, then $B$ is affinely dependent (when $L_{p}(\Omega, \mu)$ is considered as a real vector space). Examples show that the converse of this statement is not true in general. In this note we describe a class of subsets of $L_{p}(\Omega, \mu)$ for which the converse statement holds. We prove that if a two-valued set $B \subset L_{p}(\Omega, \mu)$ is affinely dependent (when $L_{p}(\Omega, \mu)$ is considered as a real vector space), then $B$ does not have strict $p$-negative type. This result is peculiar to two-valued subsets of $L_{p}(\Omega, \mu)$ and generalizes an elegant theorem of Murugan. It follows, moreover, that of certain types of isometry with range in $L_{p}(\Omega, \mu)$ cannot exist.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the optimal constants of the Bohnenblust--Hille and inequalities" by Daniel Pellegrino. Abstract: We find the optimal constants of the generalized Bohnenblust--Hille inequality for $m$-linear forms over $\mathbb{R}$ and with multiple exponents $ \left( 1,2,...,2\right)$, sometimes called mixed $\left( \ell _{1},\ell _{2}\right) $-Littlewood inequality. We show that these optimal constants are precisely $\left( \sqrt{2}\right) ^{m-1}$ and this is somewhat surprising since a series of recent papers have shown that the constants of the Bohnenblust--Hille inequality have a sublinear growth, and in several cases the same growth was obtained for the constants of the generalized Bohnenblust--Hille inequality. This result answers a question raised by Albuquerque et al. (2013) in a paper published in 2014 in the Journal of Functional Analysis. We also improve the best known constants of the generalized Hardy--Littlewood inequality in such a way that an unnatural behavior of the old estimates (that will be clear along the paper) does not happen anymore.

This is an announcement for the paper "Spaces of regular abstract martingales" by Vladimir G. Troitsky and Foivos Xanthos. Abstract: In \cite{Troitsky:05,Korostenski:08}, the authors introduced and studied the space $\mathcal M_r$ of regular martingales on a vector lattice and the space $M_r$ of bounded regular martingales on a Banach lattice. In this note, we study these two spaces from the vector lattice point of view. We show, in particular, that these spaces need not be vector lattices. However, if the underlying space is order complete then $\mathcal M_r$ is a vector lattice and $M_r$ is a Banach lattice under the regular norm.

This is an announcement for the paper "Robustness properties of dimensionality reduction with gaussian random matrices" by Bin Han and Zhiqiang Xu. Abstract: In this paper we study the robustness properties of dimensionality reduction with Gaussian random matrices having arbitrarily erased rows. We first study the robustness property against erasure for the almost norm preservation property of Gaussian random matrices by obtaining the optimal estimate of the erasure ratio for a small given norm distortion rate. As a consequence, we establish the robustness property of Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma and the robustness property of restricted isometry property with corruption for Gaussian random matrices. Secondly, we obtain a sharp estimate for the optimal lower and upper bounds of norm distortion rates of Gaussian random matrices under a given erasure ratio. This allows us to establish the strong restricted isometry property with the almost optimal RIP constants, which plays a central role in the study of phaseless compressed sensing.

This is an announcement for the paper "On complemented copies of $c_0(\omega_1)$ in $C(K^n)$ spaces" by Leandro Candido and Piotr Koszmider. Abstract: Given a compact Hausdorff space $K$ we consider the Banach space of real continuous functions $C(K^n)$ or equivalently the $n$-fold injective tensor product $\hat\bigotimes_{\varepsilon}C(K)$ or the Banach space of vector valued continuous functions $C(K, C(K, C(K ..., C(K)...)$. We address the question of the existence of complemented copies of $c_0(\omega_1)$ in $\hat\bigotimes_{\varepsilon}C(K)$ under the hypothesis that $C(K)$ contains an isomorphic copy of $c_0(\omega_1)$. This is related to the results of E. Saab and P. Saab that $X\hat\otimes_\varepsilon Y$ contains a complemented copy of $c_0$, if one of the infinite dimensional Banach spaces $X$ or $Y$ contains a copy of $c_0$ and of E. M. Galego and J. Hagler that it follows from Martin's Maximum that if $C(K)$ has density $\omega_1$ and contains a copy of $c_0(\omega_1)$, then $C(K\times K)$ contains a complemented copy $c_0(\omega_1)$. The main result is that under the assumption of $\clubsuit$ for every $n\in N$ there is a compact Hausdorff space $K_n$ of weight $\omega_1$ such that $C(K)$ is Lindel\"of in the weak topology, $C(K_n)$ contains a copy of $c_0(\omega_1)$, $C(K_n^n)$ does not contain a complemented copy of $c_0(\omega_1)$ while $C(K_n^{n+1})$ does contain a complemented copy of $c_0(\omega_1)$. This shows that additional set-theoretic assumptions in Galego and Hagler's nonseparable version of Cembrano and Freniche's theorem are necessary as well as clarifies in the negative direction the matter unsettled in a paper of Dow, Junnila and Pelant whether half-pcc Banach spaces must be weakly pcc.

This is an announcement for the paper "Convex hull deviation and contractibility" by Grigory Ivanov. Abstract: We study the Hausdorff distance between a set and its convex hull. Let $X$ be a Banach space, define the CHD-module of space $X$ as the supremum of this distance for all subset of the unit ball in $X$. In the case of finite dimensional Banach spaces we obtain the exact upper bound of the CHD-module depending on the dimension of the space. We give an upper bound for the CHD-module in $L_p$ spaces. We prove that CHD-module is not greater than the maximum of the Lipschitz constants of metric projection operator onto hyperplanes. This implies that for a Hilbert space CHD-module equals 1. We prove criterion of the Hilbert space and study the contractibility of proximally smooth sets in uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Operator Lipschitz functions on Banach spaces" by Jan Rozendaal, Fedor Sukochev and Anna Tomskova. Abstract: Let $X$, $Y$ be Banach spaces and let $\mathcal{L}(X,Y)$ be the space of bounded linear operators from $X$ to $Y$. We develop the theory of double operator integrals on $\mathcal{L}(X,Y)$ and apply this theory to obtain commutator estimates of the form \begin{align*} \|f(B)S-Sf(A)\|_{\mathcal{L}(X,Y)}\leq \textrm{const} \|BS-SA\|_{\mathcal{L}(X,Y)} \end{align*} for a large class of functions $f$, where $A\in\mathcal{L}(X)$, $B\in \mathcal{L}(Y)$ are scalar type operators and $S\in \mathcal{L}(X,Y)$. In particular, we establish this estimate for $f(t):=|t|$ and for diagonalizable operators on $X=\ell_{p}$ and $Y=\ell_{q}$, for $p<q$ and $p=q=1$, and for $X=Y=\mathrm{c}_{0}$. We also obtain results for $p\geq q$. We study the estimate above in the setting of Banach ideals in $\mathcal{L}(X,Y)$. The commutator estimates we derive hold for diagonalizable matrices with a constant independent of the size of the matrix.

This is an announcement for the paper "On automorphisms of the Banach space $\ell_\infty/c_0$" by Piotr Koszmider and Cristobal Rodriguez-Porras. Abstract: We investigate Banach space automorphisms $T:\ell_\infty/c_0\rightarrow\ell_\infty/c_0 $ focusing on the possibility of representing their fragments of the form $$T_{B,A}:\ell_\infty(A)/c_0(A)\rightarrow \ell_\infty(B)/c_0(B)$$ for $A, B\subseteq N$ infinite by means of linear operators from $\ell_\infty(A)$ into $\ell_\infty(B)$, infinite $A\times B$-matrices, continuous maps from $B^*=\beta B\setminus B$ into $A^*$, or bijections from $B$ to $A$. This leads to the analysis of general linear operators on $\ell_\infty/c_0$. We present many examples, introduce and investigate several classes of operators, for some of them we obtain satisfactory representations and for other give examples showing that it is impossible. In particular, we show that there are automorphisms of $\ell_\infty/c_0$ which cannot be lifted to operators on $\ell_\infty$ and assuming OCA+MA we show that every automorphism of $\ell_\infty/c_0$ with no fountains or with no funnels is locally, i.e., for some infinite $A, B\subseteq N$ as above, induced by a bijection from $B$ to $A$. This additional set-theoretic assumption is necessary as we show that the continuum hypothesis implies the existence of counterexamples of diverse flavours. However, many basic problems, some of which are listed in the last section, remain open.

Abstract: We show that the theory of the Gurarij operator space is the model-completion of the theory of operator spaces, it has a unique separable $1$-exact model, continuum many separable models, and no prime model. We also establish the corresponding facts for the Gurarij operator system. The proofs involve establishing that the theories of the Fra\"iss\'{e} limits of the classes of finite-dimensional $M_q$-spaces and $M_q$-systems are separably categorical and have quantifier-elimination. We conclude the paper by showing that no existentially closed operator system can be completely order isomorphic to a C$^*$ algebra.

This is an announcement for the paper "Pythagorean powers of hypercubes" by Assaf Naor and Gideon Schechtman. Abstract: For $n\in \mathbb{N}$ consider the $n$-dimensional hypercube as equal to the vector space $\mathbb{F}_2^n$, where $\mathbb{F}_2$ is the field of size two. Endow $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ with the Hamming metric, i.e., with the metric induced by the $\ell_1^n$ norm when one identifies $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ with $\{0,1\}^n\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$. Denote by $\ell_2^n(\mathbb{F}_2^n)$ the $n$-fold Pythagorean product of $\mathbb{F}_2^n$, i.e., the space of all $x=(x_1,\ldots,x_n)\in \prod_{j=1}^n \mathbb{F}_2^n$, equipped with the metric $$ \forall\, x,y\in \prod_{j=1}^n \mathbb{F}_2^n,\qquad d_{\ell_2^n(\mathbb{F}_2^n)}(x,y)= \sqrt{ \|x_1-y_1\|_1^2+\ldots+\|x_n-y_n\|_1^2}. $$ It is shown here that the bi-Lipschitz distortion of any embedding of $\ell_2^n(\mathbb{F}_2^n)$ into $L_1$ is at least a constant multiple of $\sqrt{n}$. This is achieved through the following new bi-Lipschitz invariant, which is a metric version of (a slight variant of) a linear inequality of Kwapie{\'n} and Sch\"utt (1989). Letting $\{e_{jk}\}_{j,k\in \{1,\ldots,n\}}$ denote the standard basis of the space of all $n$ by $n$ matrices $M_n(\mathbb{F}_2)$, say that a metric space $(X,d_X)$ is a KS space if there exists $C=C(X)>0$ such that for every $n\in 2\mathbb{N}$, every mapping $f:M_n(\mathbb{F}_2)\to X$ satisfies \begin{equation*}\label{eq:metric KS abstract} \frac{1}{n}\sum_{j=1}^n\mathbb{E}\left[d_X\Big(f\Big(x+\sum_{k=1}^ne_{jk}\Big),f(x)\Big)\right]\le C \mathbb{E}\left[d_X\Big(f\Big(x+\sum_{j=1}^ne_{jk_j}\Big),f(x)\Big)\right], \end{equation*} where the expectations above are with respect to $x\in M_n(\mathbb{F}_2)$ and $k=(k_1,\ldots,k_n)\in \{1,\ldots,n\}^n$ chosen uniformly at random. It is shown here that $L_1$ is a KS space (with $C= 2e^2/(e^2-1)$, which is best possible), implying the above nonembeddability statement.

This is an announcement for the paper "Intersection Theorems for Closed Convex Sets and Applications" by Hichem Ben-El-Mechaiekh. Abstract: A number of landmark existence theorems of nonlinear functional analysis follow in a simple and direct way from the basic separation of convex closed sets in finite dimension via elementary versions of the Knaster-Kuratowski-Mazurkiewicz principle - which we extend to arbitrary topological vector spaces - and a coincidence property for so-called von Neumann relations. The method avoids the use of deeper results of topological essence such as the Brouwer fixed point theorem or the Sperner's lemma and underlines the crucial role played by convexity. It turns out that the convex KKM principle is equivalent to the Hahn-Banach theorem, the Markov-Kakutani fixed point theorem, and the Sion-von Neumann minimax principle.

We also give examples of compact non metrizable spaces K such that the minimum cardinality of a maximal equilateral set in C(K) is countable.

This is an announcement for the paper "Concerning the Szlenk index" by Ryan Causey. Abstract: We discuss pruning and coloring lemmas on regular families. We discuss several applications of these lemmas to computing the Szlenk index of certain $w^*$ compact subsets of the dual of a separable Banach space. Applications include estimates of the Szlenk index of Minkowski sums, infinite direct sums of separable Banach spaces, constant reduction, and three space properties. We also consider using regular families to construct Banach spaces with prescribed Szlenk index. As a consequence, we give a characterization of which countable ordinals occur as the Szlenk index of a Banach space, prove the optimality of a previous universality result, and compute the Szlenk index of the injective tensor product of separable Banach spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "The Metric Approximation Property and Lipschitz-Free Spaces over Subsets of $\mathbb{R}^N$" by Eva Pernecka and Richard J. Smith. Abstract: We prove that for certain subsets $M \subseteq \mathbb{R}^N$, $N \geqslant 1$, the Lipschitz-free space $\mathcal{F}(M)$ has the metric approximation property (MAP), with respect to any norm on $\mathbb{R}^N$. In particular, $\mathcal{F}(M)$ has the MAP whenever $M$ is a finite-dimensional compact convex set. This should be compared with a recent result of Godefroy and Ozawa, who showed that there exists a compact convex subset $M$ of a separable Banach space, for which $\mathcal{F}(M)$ fails the approximation property.

This is an announcement for the paper "Ellipsoidal cones in normed vector spaces" by Farhad Jafari and Tyrrell B. McAllister. Abstract: We give two characterizations of cones over ellipsoids in real normed vector spaces. Let $C$ be a closed convex cone with nonempty interior such that $C$ has a bounded section of codimension $1$. We show that $C$ is a cone over an ellipsoid if and only if every bounded section of $C$ has a center of symmetry. We also show that $C$ is a cone over an ellipsoid if and only if the affine span of $\partial C \cap \partial(a - C)$ has codimension $1$ for every point $a$ in the interior of $C$. These results generalize the finite-dimensional cases proved in (Jer\'onimo-Castro and McAllister, 2013).

This is an announcement for the paper "Concentration analysis in Banach spaces" by Sergio Solimini and Cyril Tintarev. Abstract: The concept of a profile decomposition formalizes concentration compactness arguments on the functional-analytic level, providing a powerful refinement of the Banach-Alaoglu weak-star compactness theorem. We prove existence of profile decompositions for general bounded sequences in uniformly convex Banach spaces equipped with a group of bijective isometries, thus generalizing analogous results previously obtained for Sobolev spaces and for Hilbert spaces. Profile decompositions in uniformly convex Banach spaces are based on the notion of $\Delta$-convergence by T. C. Lim instead of weak convergence, and the two modes coincide if and only if the norm satisfies the well-known Opial condition, in particular, in Hilbert spaces and $\ell^{p}$-spaces, but not in $L^{p}(\mathbb R^{N})$, $p\neq2$. $\Delta$-convergence appears naturally in the context of fixed point theory for non-expansive maps. The paper also studies connection of $\Delta$-convergence with Brezis-Lieb Lemma and gives a version of the latter without an assumption of convergence a.e.

Abstract: The abscissas of convergence, uniform convergence and absolute convergence of vector valued Dirichlet series with respect to the original topology and with respect to the weak topology $\sigma(X,X')$ of a locally convex space $X$, in particular of a Banach space $X$, are compared. The relation of their coincidence with geometric or topological properties of the underlying space $X$ is investigated. Cotype in the context of Banach spaces, and nuclearity and certain topological invariants for Fr\'echet spaces play a relevant role.

Abstract: We introduce the notions of type and cotype of multilinear operators between Banach spaces and the resulting classes of such mappings are studied in the setting of the theory of Banach/quasi-Banach ideals of multilinear operators. Distinctions between the linear and the multilinear theories are pointed out, typical multilinear features of the theory are emphasized and many illustrative examples are provided. The classes we introduce are related to the multi-ideals generated by the linear ideals of operators of some type/cotype and are proved to be maximal and Aron-Berner stable.

This is an announcement for the paper "Some alternative definitions for the ''plus-minus'' interpolation spaces $\left\langle A_{0},A_{1}\right\rangle _{\theta}$ of Jaak Peetre" by Michael Cwikel. Abstract: The Peetre "plus-minus" interpolation spaces $\left\langle A_{0},A_{1}\right\rangle _{\theta}$ are defined variously via conditions about the unconditional convergence of certain Banach space valued series whose terms have coefficients which are powers of 2 or, alternatively, powers of e. It may seem intuitively obvious that using powers of 2, or of e, or powers of some other constant number greater than 1 in such definitions should produce the same space to within equivalence of norms. To allay any doubts, we here offer an explicit proof of this fact, via a "continuous" definition of the same spaces where integrals replace the above mentioned series. This apparently new definition, which is also in some sense a "limiting case" of the above mentioned "discrete" definitions, may be relevant in the study of the connection between the Peetre "plus-minus" interpolation spaces and Calderon complex interpolation spaces when both the spaces of the underlying couple are are Banach lattices on the same measure space. Related results can probably be obtained for the Gustavsson-Peetre variant of the "plus-minus" spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Improving integrability via absolute summability: a general version of Diestel's Theorem" by Daniel Pellegrino, Pilar Rueda and Enrique Sanchez-Perez. Abstract: A classical result by J. Diestel establishes that the composition of a summing operator with a (strongly measurable) Pettis integrable function gives a Bochner integrable function. In this paper we show that a much more general result is possible regarding the improvement of the integrability of vector valued functions by the summability of the operator. After proving a general result, we center our attention in the particular case given by the $(p,\sigma)$-absolutely continuous operators, that allows to prove a lot of special results on integration improvement for selected cases of classical Banach spaces ---including $C(K)$, $L^p$ and Hilbert spaces--- and operators ---$p$-summing, $(q,p)$-summing and $p$-approximable operators---.

This is an announcement for the paper "Closed ideals of operators on and complemented subspaces of Banach spaces of functions with countable support" by William B. Johnson, Tomasz Kania, and Gideon Schechtman. Abstract: Let $\lambda$ be an infinite cardinal number and let $\ell_\infty^c(\lambda)$ denote the subspace of $\ell_\infty(\lambda)$ consisting of all functions which assume at most countably many non zero values. We classify all infinite dimensional complemented subspaces of $\ell_\infty^c(\lambda)$, proving that they are isomorphic to $\ell_\infty^c(\kappa)$ for some cardinal number $\kappa$. Then we show that the Banach algebra of all bounded linear operators on $\ell_\infty^c(\lambda)$ or $\ell_\infty(\lambda)$ has the unique maximal ideal consisting of operators through which the identity operator does not factor. Using similar techniques, we obtain an alternative to Daws' approach description of the lattice of all closed ideals of $\mathscr{B}(X)$, where $X = c_0(\lambda)$ or $X=\ell_p(\lambda)$ for some $p\in [1,\infty)$, and we classify the closed ideals of $\mathscr{B}(\ell_\infty^c(\lambda))$ that contain the ideal of weakly compact operators.

This is an announcement for the paper "Separable elastic Banach spaces are universal" by Dale E. Alspach and Bunyamin Sari. Abstract: A Banach space $X$ is elastic if there is a constant $K$ so that whenever a Banach space $Y$ embeds into $X$, then there is an embedding of $Y$ into $X$ with constant $K$. We prove that $C[0,1]$ embeds into separable infinite dimensional elastic Banach spaces, and therefore they are universal for all separable Banach spaces. This confirms a conjecture of Johnson and Odell. The proof uses incremental embeddings into $X$ of $C(K)$ spaces for countable compact $K$ of increasing complexity. To achieve this we develop a generalization of Bourgain's basis index that applies to unconditional sums of Banach spaces and prove a strengthening of the weak injectivity property of these $C(K)$ that is realized on special reproducible bases.

This is an announcement for the paper "k-Extreme Points in Symmetric Spaces of Measurable Operators" by Malgorzata M. Czerwinska and Anna Kaminska. Abstract: Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a semifinite von Neumann algebra with a faithful, normal, semifinite trace $\tau$ and $E$ be a strongly symmetric Banach function space on $[0,\tau(1))$. We show that an operator $x$ in the unit sphere of $E\left(\mathcal{M},\tau\right)$ is $k$-extreme, $k\in\mathbb N$, whenever its singular value function $\mu(x)$ is $k$-extreme and one of the following conditions hold (i) $\mu(\infty,x)=\lim_{t\to\infty}\mu(t,x)=0$ or (ii) $n(x)\mathcal{M} n(x^*)=0$ and $|x|\geq \mu(\infty,x)s(x)$, where $n(x)$ and $s(x)$ are null and support projections of $x$, respectively. The converse is true whenever $\mathcal{M}$ is non-atomic. The global $k$-rotundity property follows, that is if $\mathcal{M}$ is non-atomic then $E$ is $k$-rotund if and only if $E\left(\mathcal{M},\tau\right)$ is $k$-rotund. As a consequence of the noncommutive results we obtain that $f$ is a $k$-extreme point of the unit ball of the strongly symmetric function space $E$ if and only if its decreasing rearrangement $\mu(f)$ is $k$-extreme and $|f|\geq \mu(\infty,f)$. We conclude with the corollary on orbits $\Omega(g)$ and $\Omega'(g)$. We get that $f$ is a $k$-extreme point of the orbit $\Omega(g)$, $g\in L_1+L_{\infty}$, or $\Omega'(g)$, $g\in L_1[0,\alpha)$, $\alpha<\infty$, if and only if $\mu(f)=\mu(g)$ and $|f|\geq \mu(\infty,f)$. From this we obtain a characterization of $k$-extreme points in Marcinkiewicz spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Diagonals of injective tensor products of Banach lattices with bases" by Donghai Ji, Byunghoon Lee and Qingying Bu. Abstract: In this paper, we show that four main diagonal spaces of injective tensor products are pairwise isometrically isomorphic. When E is a Banach lattice, we show that the tensor diagonal of E is a 1-unconditional basic sequence in both the n-fold injective tensor product of E and the n-fold symmetric injective tensor product of E.

This is an announcement for the paper "Proximity to $\ell_p$ and $c_0$ in Banach spaces" by Ryan Causey. Abstract: We construct a class of minimal trees and use these trees to establish a number of coloring theorems on general trees. Among the applications of these trees and coloring theorems are quantification of the Bourgain $\ell_p$ and $c_0$ indices, dualization of the Bourgain $c_0$ index, establishing sharp positive and negative results for constant reduction, and estimating the Bourgain $\ell_p$ index of an arbitrary Banach space $X$ in terms of a subspace $Y$ and the quotient $X/Y$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Ball generated property of direct sums of Banach spaces" by Jan-David Hardtke. Abstract: A Banach space $X$ is said to have the ball generated property (BGP) if every closed, bounded, convex subset of $X$ can be written as an intersection of finite unions of closed balls. In 2002 S. Basu proved that the BGP is stable under (infinite) $c_0$- and $\ell^p$-sums for $1<p<\infty$. We will show here that for any absolute, normalised norm $\|\cdot\|_E$ on $\mathbb{R}^2$ satisfying a certain smoothness condition the direct sum $X\oplus_E Y$ of two Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ with respect to $\|\cdot\|_E$ enjoys the BGP whenever $X$ and $Y$ have the BGP.

This is an announcement for the paper "Proper subspaces and compatibility" by Esteban Andruchow, Eduardo Chiumiento and Maria Eugenia Di Iorio y Lucero. Abstract: Let $\mathcal{E}$ be a Banach space contained in a Hilbert space $\mathcal{L}$. Assume that the inclusion is continuous with dense range. Following the terminology of Gohberg and Zambicki\v{\i}, we say that a bounded operator on $\mathcal{E}$ is a proper operator if it admits an adjoint with respect to the inner product of $\mathcal{L}$. By a proper subspace $\mathcal{S}$ we mean a closed subspace of $\mathcal{E}$ which is the range of a proper projection. If there exists a proper projection which is also self-adjoint with respect to the inner product of $\mathcal{L}$, then $\mathcal{S}$ belongs to a well-known class of subspaces called compatible subspaces. We find equivalent conditions to describe proper subspaces. Then we prove a necessary and sufficient condition to ensure that a proper subspace is compatible. Each proper subspace $\mathcal{S}$ has a supplement $\mathcal{T}$ which is also a proper subspace. We give a characterization of the compatibility of both subspaces $\mathcal{S}$ and $\mathcal{T}$. Several examples are provided that illustrate different situations between proper and compatible subspaces.

Abstract: We introduce non-linear versions of the classical cotype of Banach spaces. We show that spaces with l.u.st and cotype, and that spaces having Fourier cotype enjoy our non-linear cotype. We apply these concepts to get results on convergence of vector-valued power series in infinite many variables and on $\ell_{1}$-multipliers of vector-valued Dirichlet series. Finally we introduce cotype with respect to indexing sets, an idea that includes our previous definitions.

This is an announcement for the paper "Smoothness of bounded linear operators" by Kallol Paul, Debmalya Sain and Puja Ghosh. Abstract: We prove that for a bounded linear operator $T$ on a Hilbert space $\mathbb{H},$ $T \bot_B A \Leftrightarrow \langle Tx, Ax \rangle = 0 $ for some $x \in S_{\mathbb{H}}, \|Tx\| = \|T\| $ iff the norm attaining set $M_T = \{ x \in S_{\mathbb{H}} : \|Tx\| = \|T\|\} $ is a unit sphere of some finite dimensional subspace $H_0$ of $\mathbb{H}$ i.e., $M_T = S_{H_0} $ and $\|T\|_{{H_0}^{\bot}} < \|T\|.$ We also prove that if $T$ is a bounded linear operator on a Banach space $\mathbb{X}$ with the norm attaining set $M_T = D \cup(-D)$ ( $D$ is a non-empty compact connected subset of $S_{\mathbb{X}}$) and $\sup_{y \in C} \|Ty\| < \|T\|$ for all closed subsets $C$ of $S_{\mathbb{X}}$ with $d(M_T,C) > 0,$ then $T \bot_B A \Leftrightarrow Tx \bot_B Ax $ for some $x \in M_T.$ Using these results we characterize smoothness of compact operators on normed linear spaces and smoothness of bounded linear operators on Hilbert as well as Banach spaces. This is for the first time that a characterization of smoothness of bounded linear operators on a normed linear space has been obtained. We prove that $T \in B(\mathbb{X}, \mathbb{Y})$ (where $\mathbb{X}$ is a real Banach space and $\mathbb{Y}$ is a real normed linear space) is smooth iff $T$ attains its norm at unique (upto muliplication by scalar) vector $ x \in S_{\mathbb{X}},$ $Tx$ is a smooth point of $\mathbb{Y} $ and $\sup_{y \in C} \|Ty\| < \|T\|$ for all closed subsets $C$ of $S_{\mathbb{X}}$ with $d(\pm x,C) > 0.$ Archive classification: math.FA Mathematics Subject Classification: 46B20, 46B50 Remarks: 13 pages Submitted from: kalloldada at gmail.com The paper may be downloaded from the archive by web browser from URL http://front.math.ucdavis.edu/1503.03683 or http://arXiv.org/abs/1503.03683

This is an announcement for the paper "Equipped graded graphs, projective limits of simplices, and their boundaries" by A.Vershik. Abstract: In this paper, we develop a theory of equipped graded graphs (or Bratteli diagrams) and an alternative theory of projective limits of finite-dimensional simplices. An equipment is an additional structure on the graph, namely, a system of ``cotransition'' probabilities on the set of its paths. The main problem is to describe all probability measures on the path space of a graph with given cotransition probabilities; it goes back to the problem, posed by E.~B.~Dynkin in the 1960s, of describing exit and entrance boundaries for Markov chains. The most important example is the problem of describing all central measures, to which one can reduce the problems of describing states on AF-algebras or characters on locally finite groups. We suggest an unification of the whole theory, an interpretation of the notions of Martin, Choquet, and Dynkin boundaries in terms of equipped graded graphs and in terms of the theory of projective limits of simplices. In the last section, we study the new notion of ``standardness'' of projective limits of simplices and of equipped Bratteli diagrams, as well as the notion of ``lacunarization.''

This is an announcement for the paper "Norm-attaining functionals and proximinal subspaces" by Martin Rmoutil. Abstract: G. Godefroy asked whether, on any Banach space, the set of norm-attaining functionals contains a 2-dimensional linear subspace. We prove that a recent construction due to C.J. Read provides an example of a space which does not have this property. This is done through a study of the relation between the following two sentences where X is a Banach space and Y is a closed subspace of finite codimension in X: (A) Y is proximinal in X. (B) The annihilator of Y consists of norm-attaining functionals. We prove that these are equivalent if X is the Read's space. Moreover, we prove that any non-reflexive Banach space X with any given closed subspace Y of finite codimension at least 2 admits an equivalent norm such that (B) is true and (A) is false.

This is an announcement for the paper "Uncountable equilateral sets in Banach spaces of the form $C(K)$" by Piotr Koszmider. Abstract: The paper is concerned with the problem whether a nonseparable Banach space must contain an uncountable set of vectors such that the distances between every two distinct vectors of the set are the same. Such sets are called equilateral. We show that Martin's axiom and the negation of the continuum hypothesis imply that every nonseparable Banach space of the form $C(K)$ has an uncountable equilateral set. We also show that one cannot obtain such a result without an additional set-theoretic assumption since we construct an example of nonseparable Banach space of the form $C(K)$ which has no uncountable equilateral set (or equivalently no uncountable $(1+\varepsilon)$-separated set in the unit sphere for any $\varepsilon>0$) making another consistent combinatorial assumption. The compact $K$ is a version of the split interval obtained from a sequence of functions which behave in an anti-Ramsey manner. It remains open if there is an absolute example of a nonseparable Banach space of the form different than $C(K)$ which has no uncountable equilateral set. It follows from the results of S. Mercourakis, G. Vassiliadis that our example has an equivalent renorming in which it has an uncountable equilateral set. It remains open if there are consistent examples which have no uncountable equilateral sets in any equivalent renorming. It follows from the results of S. Todorcevic that it is consistent that every nonseparable Banach space has an equivalent renorming in in which it has an uncountable equilateral set.

This is an announcement for the paper "Equivalence after extension for compact operators on Banach spaces" by Sanne ter Horst, Miek Messerschmidt, and Andre C.M. Ran. Abstract: In recent years the coincidence of the operator relations equivalence after extension and Schur coupling was settled for the Hilbert space case, by showing that equivalence after extension implies equivalence after one-sided extension. In this paper we investigate consequences of equivalence after extension for compact Banach space operators. We show that generating the same operator ideal is necessary but not sufficient for two compact operators to be equivalent after extension. In analogy with the necessary and sufficient conditions on the singular values for compact Hilbert space operators that are equivalent after extension, we prove the necessity of similar relationships between the $s$-numbers of two compact Banach space operators that are equivalent after extension, for arbitrary $s$-functions. We investigate equivalence after extension for operators on $\ell^{p}$-spaces. We show that two operators that act on different $\ell^{p}$-spaces cannot be equivalent after one-sided extension. Such operators can still be equivalent after extension, for instance all invertible operators are equivalent after extension, however, if one of the two operators is compact, then they cannot be equivalent after extension. This contrasts the Hilbert space case where equivalence after one-sided extension and equivalence after extension are, in fact, identical relations. Finally, for general Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$, we investigate consequences of an operator on $X$ being equivalent after extension to a compact operator on $Y$. We show that, in this case, a closed finite codimensional subspace of $Y$ must embed into $X$, and that certain general Banach space properties must transfer from $X$ to $Y$. We also show that no operator on $X$ can be equivalent after extension to an operator on $Y$, if $X$ and $Y$ are essentially incomparable Banach spaces.

Abstract: We study semigroups of bounded operators on a Banach space such that the members of the semigroup are continuous with respect to various weak topologies and we give sufficient conditions for the generator of the semigroup to be closed with respect to the topologies involved.

This is an announcement for the paper "Uncountable sets of unit vectors that are separated by more than 1" by Tomasz Kania and Tomasz Kochanek. Abstract: Let $X$ be a Banach space. We study the circumstances under which there exists an uncountable set $\mathcal A\subset X$ of unit vectors such that $\|x-y\|>1$ for distinct $x,y\in \mathcal A$. We prove that such a set exists if $X$ is quasi-reflexive and non-separable; if $X$ is additionally super-reflexive then one can have $\|x-y\|\geqslant 1+\varepsilon$ for some $\varepsilon>0$ that depends only on $X$. If $K$ is a compact, Hausdorff space, then $X=C(K)$ contains such a set of cardinality equal to the density of $X$; this solves a problem left open by S. K. Mercourakis and G. Vassiliadis.

This is an announcement for the paper "Separable Lindenstrauss spaces whose duals lack the weak$^*$ fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings" by Emanuele Casini, Enrico Miglierina, and Lukasz Piasecki. Abstract: In this paper we study the $w^*$-fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings. First we show that the dual space $X^*$ lacks the $w^*$-fixed point property whenever $X$ contains an isometric copy of the space $c$. Then, the main result of our paper provides several characterizations of weak-star topologies that fail the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings in $\ell_1$ space. This result allows us to obtain a characterization of all separable Lindenstrauss spaces $X$ inducing the failure of $w^*$-fixed point property in $X^*$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Modulus of supporting convexity and supporting smoothness" by Grigory Ivanov. Abstract: We introduce the moduli of the supporting convexity and the supporting smoothness of the Banach space which characterize the deviation of the unit sphere from an arbitrary supporting hyperplane. We show that the modulus of supporting smoothness, the Banas modulus, and the modulus of smoothness are equivalent at zero, respectively the modulus of supporting convexity is equivalent at zero to the modulus of convexity. We prove a Day-Nordlander type result for these moduli.

Abstract: A new method of defining hereditarily indecomposable Banach spaces is presented. This method provides a unified approach for constructing reflexive HI spaces and also HI spaces with no reflexive subspace. All the spaces presented here satisfy the property that the composition of any two strictly singular operators is a compact one. This yields the first known example of a Banach space with no reflexive subspace such that every operator has a non-trivial closed invariant subspace.

This is an announcement for the paper "$(\beta)$-distortion of some infinite graphs" by Florent P. Baudier and Sheng Zhang. Abstract: A distortion lower bound of $\Omega(\log(h)^{1/p})$ is proven for embedding the complete countably branching hyperbolic tree of height $h$ into a Banach space admitting an equivalent norm satisfying property $(\beta)$ of Rolewicz with modulus of power type $p\in(1,\infty)$ (in short property ($\beta_p$)). Also it is shown that a distortion lower bound of $\Omega(\ell^{1/p})$ is incurred when embedding the parasol graph with $\ell$ levels into a Banach space with an equivalent norm with property ($\beta_p$). The tightness of the lower bound for trees is shown adjusting a construction of Matou\v{s}ek to the case of infinite trees. It is also explained how our work unifies and extends a series of results about the stability under nonlinear quotients of the asymptotic structure of infinite-dimensional Banach spaces. Finally two other applications regarding metric characterizations of asymptotic properties of Banach spaces, and the finite determinacy of bi-Lipschitz embeddability problems are discussed.

This is an announcement for the paper "The Ascoli property for function spaces and the weak topology of Banach and Fr\'echet spaces" by S. Gabriyelyan, J. Kakol, and G. Plebanek. Abstract: Following [3] we say that a Tychonoff space $X$ is an Ascoli space if every compact subset $\mathcal{K}$ of $C_k(X)$ is evenly continuous; this notion is closely related to the classical Ascoli theorem. Every $k_\mathbb{R}$-space, hence any $k$-space, is Ascoli. Let $X$ be a metrizable space. We prove that the space $C_{k}(X)$ is Ascoli iff $C_{k}(X)$ is a $k_\mathbb{R}$-space iff $X$ is locally compact. Moreover, $C_{k}(X)$ endowed with the weak topology is Ascoli iff $X$ is countable and discrete. Using some basic concepts from probability theory and measure-theoretic properties of $\ell_1$, we show that the following assertions are equivalent for a Banach space $E$: (i) $E$ does not contain isomorphic copy of $\ell_1$, (ii) every real-valued sequentially continuous map on the unit ball $B_{w}$ with the weak topology is continuous, (iii) $B_{w}$ is a $k_\mathbb{R}$-space, (iv) $B_{w}$ is an Ascoli space. We prove also that a Fr\'{e}chet lcs $F$ does not contain isomorphic copy of $\ell_1$ iff each closed and convex bounded subset of $F$ is Ascoli in the weak topology. However we show that a Banach space $E$ in the weak topology is Ascoli iff $E$ is finite-dimensional. We supplement the last result by showing that a Fr\'{e}chet lcs $F$ which is a quojection is Ascoli in the weak topology iff either $F$ is finite dimensional or $F$ is isomorphic to the product $\mathbb{K}^{\mathbb{N}}$, where $\mathbb{K}\in\{\mathbb{R},\mathbb{C}\}$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Sidonicity and variants of Kaczmarz's problem" by Jean Bourgain and Mark Lewko. Abstract: We prove that a uniformly bounded system of orthonormal functions satisfying the $\psi_2$ condition: (1) must contain a Sidon subsystem of proportional size, (2) must satisfy the Rademacher-Sidon property, and (3) must have its 5-fold tensor satisfy the Sidon property. On the other hand, we construct a uniformly bounded orthonormal system that satisfies the $\psi_2$ condition but which is not Sidon. These problems are variants of Kaczmarz's Scottish book problem (problem 130) which, in its original formulation, was answered negatively by Rudin. A corollary of our argument is a new, elementary proof of Pisier's theorem that a set of characters satisfying the $\psi_2$ condition is Sidon.

Abstract: It was proved by Argyros and Dodos that, for many classes $ C $ of separable Banach spaces which share some property $ P $, there exists an isomorphically universal space that satisfies $ P $ as well. We introduce a variant of their amalgamation technique which provides an isometrically universal space in the case that $ C $ consists of spaces with a monotone Schauder basis. For example, we prove that if $ C $ is a set of separable Banach spaces which is analytic with respect to the Effros-Borel structure and every $ X \in C $ is reflexive and has a monotone Schauder basis, then there exists a separable reflexive Banach space that is isometrically universal for $ C $.

We apply our results to the Kuratowski measure of non compactness and to the study of the Szlenk index of a Banach space. As a consequence, we obtain, for any countable ordinal $\alpha$, a characterization of the Banach spaces with Szlenk index bounded by $\omega^{\alpha+1}$ in terms of the existence an equivalent renorming. This extends a result by Knaust, Odell and Schlumprecht on Banach spaces with Szlenk index equal to $\omega$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Differentiability of Distance Function and The Proximinal Condition implying Convexity" by Triloki Nath. Abstract: A necessary and sufficient condition for the differentiability of the distance function generated by an almost proximinal closed set has been given for normed linear spaces with locally uniformly convex and differentiable norm. We prove that the proximinal condition of Giles [6] is true for almost sun. In such spaces if the proximinal condition is satisfied and the distance function is uniformly differentiable on a dense set then it turn in the differentiability on all off the set (generating the distance function). The proximinal condition ensures about the convexity of almost sun in some spaces under a differentiability condition of the distance function. A necessary and sufficient condition is derived for the convexity of Chebyshev sets in Banach spaces with rotund dual.

Abstract: The relationship between order bounded operators and order continuous operators has been investigated by several authors. The purpose of this paper is to study the relationship between order bounded operators, topologically bounded operators and topologically continuous operators. We give conditions for (i) the space of topologically continuous operators to be an ideal of the space of order bounded operators; this result generalizes the Nakano-Roberts Theorem; (ii) the space of topologically continuous operators to be a band of the space of order bounded operators; (iii) the space of order bounded operators to coincide with the space of topologically bounded operators; (iv) the space of order bounded operators to coincide with the space of topologically continuous operators. In addition, a set of counterexamples are given for illustration purpose; these counterexamples are interesting in their own rights and contribute to the literature.

This is an announcement for the paper "Composition operators on vector-valued analytic function spaces: a survey" by Jussi Laitila and Hans-Olav Tylli. Abstract: We survey recent results about composition operators induced by analytic self-maps of the unit disk in the complex plane on various Banach spaces of analytic functions taking values in infinite-dimensional Banach spaces. We mostly concentrate on the research line into qualitative properties such as weak compactness, initiated by Liu, Saksman and Tylli (1998), and continued in several other papers. We discuss composition operators on strong, respectively weak, spaces of vector-valued analytic functions, as well as between weak and strong spaces. As concrete examples, we review more carefully and present some new observations in the cases of vector-valued Hardy and BMOA spaces, though the study of composition operators has been extended to a wide range of spaces of vector-valued analytic functions, including spaces defined on other domains. Several open problems are stated.

This is an announcement for the paper "An isometrically universal Banach space induced by a non-universal Boolean algebra" by Christina Brech and Piotr Koszmider. Abstract: Given a Boolean algebra $A$, we construct another Boolean algebra $B$ with no uncountable well-ordered chains such that the Banach space of real valued continuous functions $C(K_A)$ embeds isometrically into $C(K_B)$, where $K_A$ and $K_B$ are the Stone spaces of $A$ and $B$ respectively. As a consequence we obtain the following: If there exists an isometrically universal Banach space for the class of Banach spaces of a given uncountable density $\kappa$, then there is another such space which is induced by a Boolean algebra which is not universal for Boolean algebras of cardinality $\kappa$. Such a phenomenon cannot happen on the level of separable Banach spaces and countable Boolean algebras. This is related to the open question if the existence of an isometrically universal Banach space and of a universal Boolean algebra are equivalent on the nonseparable level (both are true on the separable level).

This is an announcement for the paper "Weak Banach-Saks property and Koml\'os' theorem for preduals of JBW$^*$-triples" by Antonio M. Peralta and Hermann Pfitzner. Abstract: We show that the predual of a JBW$^*$-triple has the weak Banach-Saks property, that is, reflexive subspaces of a JBW$^*$-triple predual are super-reflexive. We also prove that JBW$^*$-triple preduals satisfy the Koml\'os property (which can be considered an abstract version of the weak law of large numbers). The results rely on two previous papers from which we infer the fact that, like in the classical case of $L^1$, a subspace of a JBW$^*$-triple predual contains $\ell_1$ as soon as it contains uniform copies of $\ell_1^n$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Volumes of unit balls of mixed sequence spaces" by Henning Kempka and Jan Vybiral. Abstract: The volume of the unit ball of the Lebesgue sequence space $\ell_p^m$ is very well known since the times of Dirichlet. We calculate the volume of the unit ball in the mixed norm $\ell^n_q(\ell_p^m)$, whose special cases are nowadays popular in machine learning under the name of group lasso. We consider the real as well as the complex case. The result is given by a closed formula involving the gamma function, only slightly more complicated than the one of Dirichlet. We close by an overview of open problems.

Abstract: In this note we study the structure of Lipschitz-free Banach spaces. We show that every Lipschitz-free Banach space contains a complemented copy of $\ell_1$. This result has many consequences for the structure of Lipschitz-free Banach spaces. Moreover, we give an example of a countable compact metric space $K$ such that $F(K)$ is not isomorphic to a subspace of $L_1$ and we show that whenever $M$ is a subset of $R^n$, then $F(M)$ is weakly sequentially complete; in particular, $c_0$ does not embed into $F(M)$.

Abstract: In the framework of Asplund spaces, we use two equivalent instruments - rich families and suitable models from logic - for performing separable reductions of various statements on Frechet subdifferentiability of functions. This way, isometrical results are actually obtained and several existed proofs are substantially simplified. Everything is based on a new structural characterization of Asplund spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "$\mathcal A$-compact mappings" by Pablo Turco. Abstract: For a fixed Banach operator ideal $\mathcal A$, we study $\mathcal A$-compact polynomials and $\mathcal A$-compact holomorphic mappings. We show that the behavior of $\mathcal A$-compact polynomials is determined by its behavior in any neighborhood of any point. We transfer some known properties of $\mathcal A$-compact operators to $\mathcal A$-compact polynomials. In order to study $\mathcal A$-compact holomorphic functions, we appeal to the $\mathcal A$-compact radius of convergence which allows us to characterize the functions in this class. Under certain hypothesis on the ideal $\mathcal A$, we give examples showing that our characterization is sharp.

This is an announcement for the paper "Probability inequalities and tail estimates on metric semigroups" by Apoorva Khare and Bala Rajaratnam. Abstract: The goal of this work is to study probability inequalities leading to tail estimates in a general metric semigroup $\mathscr{G}$ with a translation-invariant metric $d_{\mathscr{G}}$. We begin by proving inequalities including those by Ottaviani-Skorohod, L\'evy, Mogul'skii, and Khinchin-Kahane in arbitrary semigroups $\mathscr{G}$. We then show a variant of Hoffmann-J{\o}rgensen's inequality, which unifies and significantly strengthens several versions in the Banach space literature, including those by Johnson and Schechtman [Ann. Prob. 17], Klass and Nowicki [Ann. Prob. 28], and Hitczenko and Montgomery-Smith [Ann. Prob. 29]. Moreover, our version of the inequality holds more generally, in the minimal mathematical framework of a metric semigroup $\mathscr{G}$. This inequality has important consequences (as in the Banach space literature) in obtaining tail estimates and approximate bounds for sums of independent semigroup-valued random variables, their moments, and decreasing rearrangements. In particular, we obtain the "correct" universal constants in several cases, including in all normed linear spaces as well as in all compact, discrete, or abelian Lie groups.

Abstract: In this paper, we develop basic theory for the Orlicz affine surface areas for log-concave and $s$-concave functions. Our definitions were motivated by recently developed 1) Orlicz affine and geominimal surface areas for convex bodies, and 2) $L_p$ affine surface areas for log-concave and $s$-concave functions. We prove some basic properties for these newly introduced functional affine invariants, and establish related functional affine isoperimetric inequalities as well as generalized functional Blaschke-Santal\'o and inverse Santal\'o inequalities.

This is an announcement for the paper "Characterization of $1$-almost greedy bases" by F. Albiac and J. L. Ansorena. Abstract: This article closes the cycle of characterizations of greedy-like bases in the isometric case initiated in [F. Albiac and P. Wojtaszczyk, Characterization of $1$-greedy bases, J. Approx. Theory 138 (2006)] with the characterization of $1$-greedy bases and continued in [F. Albiac and J. L. Ansorena, Characterization of $1$-quasi-greedy bases, arXiv:1504.04368v1 [math.FA] (2015)] with the characterization of $1$-quasi-greedy bases. Here we settle the problem of providing a characterization of $1$-almost greedy bases in (real or complex) Banach spaces. We show that a (semi-normalized) basis in a Banach space is almost-greedy with almost greedy constant equal to $1$ if and only if it is quasi-greedy with suppression quasi-greedy constant equal to $1$ and has Property (A).

Abstract: A sharp quantitative version of the $L_p-$mixed volume inequality is established. This is achieved by exploiting an improved Jensen inequality. This inequality is a generalization of Pinsker-Csisz\'ar-Kullback inequality for the Tsallis entropy. Finally, a sharp quantitative version of the $L_p-$Brunn-Minkowski inequality is also proved as a corollary.

This is an announcement for the paper "On Lipschitz extension from finite subsets" by Assaf Naor and Yuval Rabani. Abstract: We prove that for every $n\in \mathbb{N}$ there exists a metric space $(X,d_X)$, an $n$-point subset $S\subseteq X$, a Banach space $(Z,\|\cdot\|_Z)$ and a $1$-Lipschitz function $f:S\to Z$ such that the Lipschitz constant of every function $F:X\to Z$ that extends $f$ is at least a constant multiple of $\sqrt{\log n}$. This improves a bound of Johnson and Lindenstrauss. We also obtain the following quantitative counterpart to a classical extension theorem of Minty. For every $\alpha\in (1/2,1]$ and $n\in \mathbb{N}$ there exists a metric space $(X,d_X)$, an $n$-point subset $S\subseteq X$ and a function $f:S\to \ell_2$ that is $\alpha$-H\"older with constant $1$, yet the $\alpha$-H\"older constant of any $F:X\to \ell_2$ that extends $f$ satisfies $$ \|F\|_{\mathrm{Lip}(\alpha)}\gtrsim (\log n)^{\frac{2\alpha-1}{4\alpha}}+\left(\frac{\log n}{\log\log n}\right)^{\alpha^2-\frac12}. $$ We formulate a conjecture whose positive solution would strengthen Ball's nonlinear Maurey extension theorem, serving as a far-reaching nonlinear version of a theorem of K\"onig, Retherford and Tomczak-Jaegermann. We explain how this conjecture would imply as special cases answers to longstanding open questions of Johnson and Lindenstrauss and Kalton.

As a consequence we obtain an MLUR space $X$ with the properties D2P, that every non-empty relatively weakly open subset of its unit ball $B_X$ has diameter 2, and the LD2P+, that for every slice of $B_X$ and every norm 1 element $x$ inside the slice there is another element $y$ inside the slice of distance as close to 2 from $x$ as desired. An example of an MLUR space with the D2P, the LD2P+, and with convex combinations of slices of arbitrary small diameter is also given.

This is an announcement for the paper "Domination spaces and factorization of linear and multilinear summing operators" by E. Dahia, D. Achour, P. Rueda and E. A. Sanchez Perez. Abstract: It is well known that not every summability property for non linear operators leads to a factorization theorem. In this paper we undertake a detailed study of factorization schemes for summing linear and nonlinear operators. Our aim is to integrate under the same theory a wide family of classes of mappings for which a Pietsch type factorization theorem holds. We analyze the class of linear operators that are defined by a summability inequality involving a homogeneous map. Our construction includes the cases of absolutely $p$-summing linear operators, $(p,\sigma)$-absolutely continuous linear operators, factorable strongly $p$-summing multilinear operators, $(p_1,\ldots,p_n)$-dominated multilinear operators and dominated $(p_1,\ldots, p_n;\sigma)$-continuous multilinear operators.

This is an announcement for the paper "Rademacher functions in Morrey spaces" by Sergei V. Astashkin and Lech Maligranda. Abstract: The Rademacher functions are investigated in the Morrey spaces M(p,w) on [0,1] for 1 \le p <\infty and weight w being a quasi-concave function. They span l_2 space in M(p,w) if and only if the weight w is smaller than the function log_2^{-1/2}(2/t) on (0,1). Moreover, if 1 < p < \infty the Rademacher sunspace R_p is complemented in M(p,w) if and only if it is isomorphic to l_2. However, the Rademacher subspace is not complemented in M(1,w) for any quasi-concave weight w. In the last part of the paper geometric structure of Rademacher subspaces in Morrey spaces M(p,w) is described. It turns out that for any infinite-dimensional subspace X of R_p the following alternative holds: either X is isomorphic to l_2 or X contains a subspace which is isomorphic to c_0 and is complemented in R_p.

This is an announcement for the paper "The Kadec-Pe\l czynski theorem in $L^p$, $1\le p<2$" by Istvan Berkes and Robert Tichy. Abstract: By a classical result of Kadec and Pe\l czynski (1962), every normalized weakly null sequence in $L^p$, $p>2$ contains a subsequence equivalent to the unit vector basis of $\ell^2$ or to the unit vector basis of $\ell^p$. In this paper we investigate the case $1\le p<2$ and show that a necessary and sufficient condition for the first alternative in the Kadec-Pe\l czynski theorem is that the limit random measure $\mu$ of the sequence satisfies $\int_{\mathbb{R}} x^2 d\mu (x)\in L^{p/2}$.

Abstract: In this paper we consider generalized square function norms of holomorphic functions with values in a Banach space. One of the main results is a characterization of embeddings of the form \[L^p(X)\subseteq \gamma(X) \subseteq L^q(X),\] in terms of the type $p$ and cotype $q$ for the Banach space $X$. As an application we prove $L^p$-estimates for vector-valued Littlewood-Paley-Stein $g$-functions and derive an embedding result for real and complex interpolation spaces under type and cotype conditions.

This is an announcement for the paper "Rethinking Polyhedrality for Lindenstrauss Spaces" by Emanuele Casini, Enrico Miglierina, and Lukasz Piasecki. Abstract: A recent example by the authors (see arXiv:1503.09088 [math.FA]) shows that an old result of Zippin about the existence of an isometric copy of $c$ in a separable Lindenstrauss space is incorrect. The same example proves that some characterizations of polyhedral Lindenstrauss spaces, based on the result of Zippin, are false. The main result of the present paper provides a new characterization of polyhedrality for the preduals of $\ell_{1}$ and gives a correct proof for one of the older. Indeed, we prove that for a space $X$ such that $X^{*}=\ell_{1}$ the following properties are equivalent: (1) $X$ is a polyhedral space; (2) $X$ does not contain an isometric copy of $c$; (3) $\sup\left\{ x^{*}(x)\,:\, x^{*}\in\mathrm{ext}\left(B_{X^{*}}\right)\setminus D(x)\right\} <1$ for each $x\in S_{X}$, where $D(x)=\left\{ x^{*}\in S_{X^{*}}:x^{*}(x)=1\right\}$. By known theory, from our result follows that a generic Lindenstrauss space is polyhedral if and only if it does not contain an isometric copy of $c$. Moreover, a correct version of the result of Zippin is derived as a corollary of the main result.

This is an announcement for the paper "Strong extensions for $q$-summing operators acting in $p$-convex function spaces for $1 \le p \le q$" by O. Delgado and E. A. Sanchez Perez. Abstract: Let $1\le p\le q<\infty$ and let $X$ be a $p$-convex Banach function space over a $\sigma$-finite measure $\mu$. We combine the structure of the spaces $L^p(\mu)$ and $L^q(\xi)$ for constructing the new space $S_{X_p}^{\,q}(\xi)$, where $\xi$ is a probability Radon measure on a certain compact set associated to $X$. We show some of its properties, and the relevant fact that every $q$-summing operator $T$ defined on $X$ can be continuously (strongly) extended to $S_{X_p}^{\,q}(\xi)$. This result turns out to be a mixture of the Pietsch and Maurey-Rosenthal factorization theorems, which provide (strong) factorizations for $q$-summing operators through $L^q$-spaces when $1 \le q \le p$. Thus, our result completes the picture, showing what happens in the complementary case $1\le p\le q$, opening the door to the study of the multilinear versions of $q$-summing operators also in these cases.

This is an announcement for the paper "Bezout Inequality for Mixed volumes" by Ivan Soprunov and Artem Zvavitch. Abstract: In this paper we consider the following analog of Bezout inequality for mixed volumes: $$V(P_1,\dots,P_r,\Delta^{n-r})V_n(\Delta)^{r-1}\leq \prod_{i=1}^r V(P_i,\Delta^{n-1})\ \text{ for }2\leq r\leq n.$$ We show that the above inequality is true when $\Delta$ is an $n$-dimensional simplex and $P_1, \dots, P_r$ are convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We conjecture that if the above inequality is true for all convex bodies $P_1, \dots, P_r$, then $\Delta$ must be an $n$-dimensional simplex. We prove that if the above inequality is true for all convex bodies $P_1, \dots, P_r$, then $\Delta$ must be indecomposable (i.e. cannot be written as the Minkowski sum of two convex bodies which are not homothetic to $\Delta$), which confirms the conjecture when $\Delta$ is a simple polytope and in the 2-dimensional case. Finally, we connect the inequality to an inequality on the volume of orthogonal projections of convex bodies as well as prove an isomorphic version of the inequality.

This is an announcement for the paper "Nonlinear Operator Ideals Between Metric Spaces and Banach Spaces, Part I" by Manaf Adnan Saleh Saleh. Abstract: In this paper we present part I of nonlinear operator ideals theory between metric spaces and Banach spaces. Building upon the definition of operator ideal between arbitrary Banach spaces of A. Pietsch we pose three types of nonlinear versions of operator ideals. We introduce several examples of nonlinear ideals and the relationships between them. For every space ideal $\mathsf{A}$ can be generated by a special nonlinear ideal which consists of those Lipschitz operators admitting a factorization through a Banach space $\mathbf{M}\in\mathsf{A}$. We investigate products and quotients of nonlinear ideals. We devote to constructions three types of new nonlinear ideals from given ones. A ``new'' is a rule defining nonlinear ideals $\mathfrak{A}^{L}_{new}$, $\textswab{A}^{L}_{new}$, and $\textfrak{A}^{L}_{new}$ for every $\mathfrak{A}$, $\textswab{A}^{L}$, and $\textfrak{A}^{L}$ respectively, are called a Lipschitz procedure. Considering the class of all stable objects for a given Lipschitz procedure we obtain nonlinear ideals having special properties. We present the concept of a (strongly) $p-$Banach nonlinear ideal ($0<p<1$) and prove that the nonlinear ideals of Lipschitz nuclear operators, Lipschitz Hilbert operators, products and quotient are strongly $r-$Banach nonlinear ideals ($0<r<1$).

This is an announcement for the paper "Ideal structure of the algebra of bounded operators acting on a Banach space" by Tomasz Kania and Niels Jakob Laustsen. Abstract: We construct a Banach space $Z$ such that the lattice of closed two-sided ideals of the Banach algebra $\mathscr{B}(Z)$ of bounded operators on $Z$ is as follows: $$ \{0\}\subset \mathscr{K}(Z)\subset\mathscr{E}(Z) \raisebox{-.5ex}% {\ensuremath{\overset{\begin{turn}{30}$\subset$\end{turn}}% {\begin{turn}{-30}$\subset$\end{turn}}}}\!\!% \begin{array}{c}\mathscr{M}_1\\[1mm]\mathscr{M}_2\end{array}\!\!\!% \raisebox{-1.25ex}% {\ensuremath{\overset{\raisebox{1.25ex}{\ensuremath{\begin{turn}{-30}$\subset$\end{turn}}}}% {\raisebox{-.25ex}{\ensuremath{\begin{turn}{30}$\subset$\end{turn}}}}}}\,\mathscr{B}(Z). $$ We then determine which kinds of approximate identities (bounded/left/right), if any, each of the four non-trivial closed ideals of $\mathscr{B}(Z)$ contain, and we show that the maximal ideal $\mathscr{M}_1$ is generated as a left ideal by two operators, but not by a single operator, thus answering a question left open in our collaboration with Dales, Kochanek and Koszmider (\emph{Studia Math.} 2013). In contrast, the other maximal ideal $\mathscr{M}_2$ is not finitely generated as a left ideal. The Banach space $Z$ is the direct sum of Argyros and Haydon's Banach space $X_{\text{AH}}$ which has very few operators and a certain subspace $Y$ of $X_{\text{AH}}$. The key property of~$Y$ is that every bounded operator from $Y$ into $X_{\text{AH}}$ is the sum of a scalar multiple of the inclusion mapping and a compact operator.

This is an announcement for the paper "Persistence of Banach lattices under nonlinear order isomorphisms" by Denny H. Leung and Wee-Kee Tang. Abstract: Ordered vector spaces E and F are said to be order isomorphic if there is a (not necessarily linear) bijection between them that preserves order. We investigate some situations under which an order isomorphism between two Banach lattices implies the persistence of some linear lattice structure. For instance, it is shown that if a Banach lattice E is order isomorphic to C(K) for some compact Hausdorff space K, then E is (linearly) isomorphic to C(K) as a Banach lattice. Similar results hold for Banach lattices order isomorphic to c_0, and for Banach lattices that contain a closed sublattice order isomorphic to c_0.

This is an announcement for the paper "The Dvoretsky-Rogers Theorem for vector valued integrals on function spaces" by P. Rueda and E.A. Sanchez-Perez. Abstract: We show a Dvoretsky-Rogers type Theorem for the adapted version of the $q$-summing operators to the topology of the convergence of the vector valued integrals on Banach function spaces. In the pursuit of this objective we prove that the mere summability of the identity map does not guaranty that the space has to be finite dimensional, contrarily to the classical case. Some local compactness assumptions on the unit balls are required. Our results open the door to new convergence theorems and tools regarding summability of series of integrable functions and approximation in function spaces, since we may find infinite dimensional spaces in which convergence of the integrals ---our vector valued version of convergence in the weak topology--- is equivalent to the convergence with respect to the norm. Examples and applications are also given.

This is an announcement for the paper "Closed ideals in $\mathcal{L}(X)$ and $\mathcal{L}(X^*)$ when $X$ contains certain copies of $\ell_p$ and $c_0$" by Ben Wallis. Abstract: Suppose $X$ is a real or complexified Banach space containing a complemented copy of $\ell_p$, $p\in(1,2)$, and a copy (not necessarily complemented) of either $\ell_q$, $q\in(p,\infty)$, or $c_0$. Then $\mathcal{L}(X)$ and $\mathcal{L}(X^*)$ each admit continuum many closed ideals. If in addition $q\geq p'$, $\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{p'}=1$, then the closed ideals of $\mathcal{L}(X)$ and $\mathcal{L}(X^*)$ each fail to be linearly ordered. We obtain additional results in the special cases of $\mathcal{L}(\ell_1\oplus\ell_q)$ and $\mathcal{L}(\ell_p\oplus c_0)$, $1<p<2<q<\infty$.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the composition ideals of Lipschitz mappings" by khalil saadi. Abstract: We study in this paper some property of Lipschitz mappings which admit factorization through an operator ideal. We try to construct Lipschitz cross-norms from known tensor norms in order to represent certain classes of Lipschitz mappings. Inspired by the definition of p-summing linear operators we introduce a new concpet in the the category of Lipschitz mappings that is called strictly Lipschitz p-summing.

Abstract: We show that the decreasing rearrangement of the Fourier series with respect to the Jacobi polynomials for functions in $L_p$ does not converge unless $p=2$. As a by-product of our work on quasi-greedy bases in $L_{p}(\mu)$, we show that no normalized unconditional basis in $L_p$, $p\not=2$, can be semi-normalized in $L_q$ for $q\not=p$, thus extending a classical theorem of Kadets and Pe{\l}czy{\'n}ski from 1968.

Abstract: We prove uniform estimates for the expected value of averages of order statistics of bivariate functions in terms of their largest values by a direct analysis. As an application, uniform estimates for the expected value of averages of order statistics of sequences of independent random variables in terms of Orlicz norms are obtained. In the case where the bivariate functions are matrices, we provide a ``minimal'' probability space which allows us to $C$-embed certain Orlicz spaces $\ell_M^n$ into $\ell_1^{cn^3}$, $c,C>0$ being absolute constants.

This is an announcement for the paper "Class of operators determined by ordinal indices" by Kevin Beanland, Ryan Causey, Daniel Freeman, and Ben Wallis. Abstract: We introduce and study the Bourgain index of an operator between two Banach spaces. In particular, we study the Bourgain $\ell_p$ and $c_0$ indices of an operator. Several estimates for finite and infinite direct sums are established. We define classes determined by these indices and show that some of these classes form operator ideals. We characterize the ordinals which occur as the index of an operator and establish exactly when the defined classes are closed. We study associated indices for non-preservation of $\ell_p^\xi$ and $c_0^\xi$ spreading models and indices characterizing weak compactness of operators between separable Banach spaces. We also show that some of these classes are operator ideals and discuss closedness and distinctness of these classes.

This is an announcement for the paper "Embeddings between weighted Copson and Ces\`{a}ro function spaces" by Amiran Gogatishvili, Rza Mustafayev, and Tugce Unver. Abstract: In this paper embeddings between weighted Copson function spaces ${\operatorname{Cop}}_{p_1,q_1}(u_1,v_1)$ and weighted Ces\`{a}ro function spaces ${\operatorname{Ces}}_{p_2,q_2}(u_2,v_2)$ are characterized. In particular, two-sided estimates of the optimal constant $c$ in the inequality \begin{equation*} \bigg( \int_0^{\infty} \bigg( \int_0^t f(\tau)^{p_2}v_2(\tau)\,d\tau\bigg)^{\frac{q_2}{p_2}} u_2(t)\,dt\bigg)^{\frac{1}{q_2}} \le c \bigg( \int_0^{\infty} \bigg( \int_t^{\infty} f(\tau)^{p_1} v_1(\tau)\,d\tau\bigg)^{\frac{q_1}{p_1}} u_1(t)\,dt\bigg)^{\frac{1}{q_1}}, \end{equation*} where $p_1,\,p_2,\,q_1,\,q_2 \in (0,\infty)$, $p_2 \le q_2$ and $u_1,\,u_2,\,v_1,\,v_2$ are weights on $(0,\infty)$, are obtained. The most innovative part consists of the fact that possibly different parameters $p_1$ and $p_2$ and possibly different inner weights $v_1$ and $v_2$ are allowed. The proof is based on the combination duality techniques with estimates of optimal constants of the embeddings between weighted Ces\`{a}ro and Copson spaces and weighted Lebesgue spaces, which reduce the problem to the solutions of the iterated Hardy-type inequalities.

This is an announcement for the paper "One side James' Compactness Theorem" by Bernardo Cascales, Jose Orihuela and Antonio Perez. Abstract: We present some extensions of classical results that involve elements of the dual of Banach spaces, such as Bishop-Phelp's theorem and James' compactness theorem, but restricting to sets of functionals determined by geometrical properties. The main result, which answers a question posed by F. Delbaen, is the following: Let $E$ be a Banach space such that $(B_{E^\ast}, \omega^\ast)$ is convex block compact. Let $A$ and $B$ be bounded, closed and convex sets with distance $d(A,B) > 0$. If every $x^\ast \in E^\ast$ with \[ \sup(x^\ast,B) < \inf(x^\ast,A) \] attains its infimum on $A$ and its supremum on $B$, then $A$ and $B$ are both weakly compact. We obtain new characterizations of weakly compact sets and reflexive spaces, as well as a result concerning a variational problem in dual Banach spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "The Dual Form of the Approximation Property for a Banach Space and a Subspace" by T. Figiel and W. B. Johnson. Abstract: Given a Banach space X and a subspace Y, the pair (X,Y) is said to have the approximation property (AP) provided there is a net of finite rank bounded linear operators on X all of which leave the subspace Y invariant such that the net converges uniformly on compact subsets of X to the identity operator. The main result is an easy to apply dual formulation of this property. Applications are given to three space properties; in particular, if X has the approximation property and its subspace Y is script L-infinity, then X/Y has the approximation property.

We also show that the weak Banach-Saks property, the Schur property, the Dunford-Pettis property, the analytic Radon-Nikodym property, the set of Banach spaces whose set of unconditionally converging operators is complemented in its bounded oper- ators, the set of Banach spaces whose set of weakly compact operators is complemented in its bounded operators, and the set of Banach spaces whose set of Banach-Saks opera- tors is complemented in its bounded operators, are all non Borel in SB.

This is an announcement for the paper "Functional calculus for $C_{0}$-groups using (co)type" by Jan Rozendaal. Abstract: We study the functional calculus properties of generators of $C_{0}$-groups under type and cotype assumptions on the underlying Banach space. In particular, we show the following. Let $-\mathrm{i}A$ generate a $C_{0}$-group on a Banach space $X$ with type $p\in[1,2]$ and cotype $q\in[2,\infty)$. Then $A$ has a bounded $\mathcal{H}^{\infty}$-calculus from $\mathrm{D}_{A}(\tfrac{1}{p}-\tfrac{1}{q},1)$ to $X$, i.e.\ $f(A):\mathrm{D}_{A}(\tfrac{1}{p}-\tfrac{1}{q},1)\to X$ is bounded for each bounded holomorphic function $f$ on a sufficiently large strip. %Hence $A$ has a bounded calculus for the class of bounded holomorphic functions which decay polynomially of order $\alpha>\frac{1}{p}-\frac{1}{q}$ at infinity. Under additional geometric assumptions, satisfied by $\mathrm{L}^{p}$-spaces, we cover the case $\alpha=\frac{1}{p}-\frac{1}{q}$. As a corollary of our main theorem, for sectorial operators we quantify the gap between bounded imaginary powers and a bounded $\mathcal{H}^{\infty}$-calculus in terms of the type and cotype of the underlying Banach space. For cosine functions we obtain similar results as for $C_{0}$-groups. We extend our results to $R$-bounded operator-valued calculi, and we give an application to the theory of rational approximation of $C_{0}$-groups.

This is an announcement for the paper "Duality on Banach spaces and a Borel parametrized version of Zippin's theorem" by Bruno de Mendonca Braga. Abstract: Let SB be the standard coding for separable Banach spaces as subspaces of $C(\Delta)$. In these notes, we show that if $\mathbb{B} \subset \text{SB}$ is a Borel subset of spaces with separable dual, then the assignment $X \mapsto X^*$ can be realized by a Borel function $\mathbb{B}\to \text{SB}$. Moreover, this assignment can be done in such a way that the functional evaluation is still well defined (Theorem $1$). Also, we prove a Borel parametrized version of Zippin's theorem, i.e., we prove that there exists $Z \in \text{SB}$ and a Borel function that assigns for each $X \in \mathbb{B}$ an isomorphic copy of $X$ inside of $Z$ (Theorem $5$).

This is an announcement for the paper "An uniform estimate of the relative projection constant" by Tomasz Kobos. Abstract: The main goal of the paper is to provide a quantitative lower bound greater than $1$ for the relative projection constant $\lambda(Y, X)$, where $X$ is a subspace of $\ell_{2p}^m$ space and $Y \subset X$ is an arbitrary hyperplane. As a consequence, we establish that for every integer $n \geq 4$ there exists an $n$-dimensional normed space $X$ such that for an every hyperplane $Y$ and every projection $P:X \to Y$ the inequality $||P|| > 1 + \left (2 \left ( n + 3 \right )^{2} \right )^{-100(n+3)^2}$ holds. This gives a non-trivial lower bound in a variation of problem proposed by Bosznay and Garay in $1986$.

This is an announcement for the paper "On conditional weak topologies under a simplified approach derived the framework of conditional sets" by Jose Miguel Zapata. Abstract: The purpose of this manuscript is to introduce a simplified approach derived from the framework of conditional sets, which is a novel approach to study dynamic and conditional settings, as those that arise in mathematical finance. Under this approach, and with the aim of providing an analytic basis for the study of dynamic and conditional risk measures, we carry out a study of the conditional weak topologies and conditional weak compactness, extending some well-known results to this framework and culminating with the proof of conditional versions of Eberlein-\v{S}mulian and Amir-Lindenstrauss Theorems. In pursuing this aim we study the algebraic structure of conditional spaces conditionally finitely generated and state conditional versions of Baire Category Theorem and Uniform Boundedness Principle.

This is an announcement for the paper "Bohnenblust-Hille inequalities for Lorentz spaces via interpolation" by Andreas Defant and Mieczyslaw Mastylo. Abstract: We prove that the Lorentz sequence space $\ell_{\frac{2m}{m+1},1}$ is, in a~precise sense, optimal among all symmetric Banach sequence spaces satisfying a Bohnenblust-Hille type inequality for $m$-linear forms or $m$-homogeneous polynomials on $\mathbb{C}^n$. Motivated by this result we develop methods for dealing with subtle Bohnenblust-Hille type inequalities in the setting of Lorentz spaces. Based on an interpolation approach and the Blei-Fournier inequalities involving mixed type spaces, we prove multilinear and polynomial Bohnenblust-Hille type inequalities in Lorentz spaces with subpolynomial and subexponential constants. Improving a remarkable result of Balasubramanian-Calado-Queff\'{e}lec, we show an application to the theory of Dirichlet series.

This is an announcement for the paper "$L^p$-norms and Mahler's measure of polynomials on the $n$-dimensional torus" by Andreas Defant and Mieczyslaw Mastylo. Abstract: We prove Nikol'skii type inequalities which for polynomials on the $n$-dimensional torus $\mathbb{T}^n$ relate the $L^p$-with the $L^q$-norm (with respect to the normalized Lebesgue measure and $0 <p <q < \infty$). Among other things we show that $C=\sqrt{q/p}$ is the best constant such that $\|P\|_{L^q}\leq C^{\text{deg}(P)} \|P\|_{L^p}$ for all homogeneous polynomials $P$ on $\mathbb{T}^n$. We also prove an exact inequality between the $L^p$-norm of a polynomial $P$ on $\mathbb{T}^n$ and its Mahler measure $M(P)$, which is the geometric mean of $|P|$ with respect to the normalized Lebesgue measure on $\mathbb{T}^n$. Using extrapolation we transfer this estimate into a Khintchine-Kahane type inequality, which, for polynomials on $\mathbb{T}^n$, relates a certain exponential Orlicz norm and Mahler's measure. Applications are given, including some interpolation estimates.

This is an announcement for the paper "Chaining, Interpolation, and Convexity" by Ramon van Handel. Abstract: We show that classical chaining bounds on the suprema of random processes in terms of entropy numbers can be systematically improved when the underlying set is convex: the entropy numbers need not be computed for the entire set, but only for certain "thin" subsets. This phenomenon arises from the observation that real interpolation can be used as a natural chaining mechanism. Unlike the general form of Talagrand's generic chaining method, which is sharp but often difficult to use, the resulting bounds involve only entropy numbers but are nonetheless sharp in many situations in which classical entropy bounds are suboptimal. Such bounds are readily amenable to explicit computations in specific examples, and we discover some old and new geometric principles for the control of chaining functionals as special cases.

This is an announcement for the paper "Smooth and polyhedral approximation in Banach spaces" by Victor Bible and Richard J. Smith. Abstract: We show that norms on certain Banach spaces $X$ can be approximated uniformly, and with arbitrary precision, on bounded subsets of $X$ by $C^{\infty}$ smooth norms and polyhedral norms. In particular, we show that this holds for any equivalent norm on $c_0(\Gamma)$, where $\Gamma$ is an arbitrary set. We also give a necessary condition for the existence of a polyhedral norm on a weakly compactly generated Banach space, which extends a well-known result of Fonf.

This is an announcement for the paper "An elementary approach to the problem of column selection in a rectangular matrix" by Stephane Chretien and Sebastien Darses. Abstract: The problem of extracting a well conditioned submatrix from any rectangular matrix (with normalized columns) has been studied for some time in functional and harmonic analysis; see \cite{BourgainTzafriri:IJM87,Tropp:StudiaMath08,Vershynin:IJM01} for methods using random column selection. More constructive approaches have been proposed recently; see the recent contributions of \cite{SpielmanSrivastava:IJM12,Youssef:IMRN14}. The column selection problem we consider in this paper is concerned with extracting a well conditioned submatrix, i.e. a matrix whose singular values all lie in $[1-\epsilon,1+\epsilon]$. We provide individual lower and upper bounds for each singular value of the extracted matrix at the price of conceding only one log factor in the number of columns, when compared to the Restricted Invertibility Theorem of Bourgain and Tzafriri. Our method is fully constructive and the proof is short and elementary.

This is an announcement for the paper "Sequence-singular operators" by Gleb Sirotkin and Ben Wallis. Abstract: In this paper we study two types of collections of operators on a Banach space on the subject of forming operator ideals. One of the types allows us to construct an uncountable chain of closed ideals in each of the operator algebras $\mathcal{L}(\ell_1\oplus\ell_q)$, $1<q<\infty$, and $\mathcal{L}(\ell_1\oplus c_0)$. This finishes answering a longstanding question of Pietsch.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the interval of fluctuation of the singular values of random" by Olivier Guedon, Alexander E. Litvak, Alain Pajor, and Nicole Tomczak-Jaegermann. Abstract: Let $A$ be a matrix whose columns $X_1,\dots, X_N$ are independent random vectors in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Assume that the tails of the 1-dimensional marginals decay as $\mathbb{P}(|\langle X_i, a\rangle|\geq t)\leq t^{-p}$ uniformly in $a\in S^{n-1}$ and $i\leq N$. Then for $p>4$ we prove that with high probability $A/{\sqrt{n}}$ has the Restricted Isometry Property (RIP) provided that Euclidean norms $|X_i|$ are concentrated around $\sqrt{n}$. We also show that the covariance matrix is well approximated by the empirical covariance matrix and establish corresponding quantitative estimates on the rate of convergence in terms of the ratio $n/N$. Moreover, we obtain sharp bounds for both problems when the decay is of the type $ \exp({-t^{\alpha}})$ with $\alpha \in (0,2]$, extending the known case $\alpha\in[1, 2]$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Banach space-valued extensions of linear operators on $L^{\infty}$" by Nick Lindemulder. Abstract: Let $E$ and $G$ be two Banach function spaces, let $T \in \mathcal{L}(E,Y)$, and let ${\langle X,Y \rangle}$ be a Banach dual pair. In this paper we give conditions for which there exists a (necessarily unique) bounded linear operator $T_{Y} \in \mathcal{L}(E(Y),G(Y))$ with the property that \[ {\langle x,T_{Y}e \rangle} = T{\langle x,e \rangle} \quad\quad \forall e \in E(Y), x \in X. \] Our first main result states that, in case ${\langle X,Y \rangle} = {\langle Y^{*}, Y \rangle}$ with $Y$ a reflexive Banach space, for the existence of $T_{Y}$ it sufficient that $T$ is dominated by a positive operator. Our second main result concerns the case that $T$ is an adjoint operator on $L^{\infty}(A)$: we suppose that $E = L^{\infty}(A)$ for a semi-finite measure space $(A,\mathscr{A},\mu)$, that ${\langle F, G \rangle}$ is a K\"othe dual pair, and that $T$ is $\sigma(L^{\infty}(A),L^{1}(A))$-to-$\sigma(G,F)$ continuous. Then $T_{Y}$ exists provided that $T$ is dominated by a positive operator, in which case $T_{Y}$ is $\sigma(L^{\infty}(A;Y),L^{1}(A;X))$-to-$\sigma(G(Y),F \tilde{\otimes} X)$ continuous; here $F \tilde{\otimes} X$ denotes the closure of $F \otimes X$ in $F(X)$. We also consider situations in which the existence is automatic and we furthermore show that in certain situations it is necessary that $T$ is regular. As an application of this result we consider conditional expectation on Banach space-valued $L^{\infty}$-spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Factorization of the identity through operators with large diagonal" by Niels Jakob Laustsen, Richard Lechner, and Paul F.X. Mueller. Abstract: Given a Banach space $X$ with an unconditional basis, we consider the following question: does the identity on $X$ factor through every bounded operator on $X$ with large diagonal relative to the unconditional basis? We show that on Gowers' space with its unconditional basis there exists an operator for which the answer to the question is negative. By contrast, for any operator on the mixed-norm Hardy spaces $H^p(H^q)$, where $1 \leq p,q < \infty$, with the bi-parameter Haar system, this problem always has a positive solution. The one-parameter $H^p$ spaces were treated first by Andrew in 1979.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the problem of compact totally disconnected reflection of nonmetrizability" by Piotr Koszmider. Abstract: We construct a ZFC example of a nonmetrizable compact space $K$ such that every totally disconnected closed subspace $L\subseteq K$ is metrizable. In fact, the construction can be arranged so that every nonmetrizable compact subspace may be of fixed big dimension. Then we focus on the problem if a nonmetrizable compact space $K$ must have a closed subspace with a nonmetrizable totally disconnected continuous image. This question has several links with the the structure of the Banach space $C(K)$, for example, by Holszty\'nski's theorem, if $K$ is a counterexample, then $C(K)$ contains no isometric copy of a nonseparable Banach space $C(L)$ for $L$ totally disconnected. We show that in the literature there are diverse consistent counterexamples, most eliminated by Martin's axiom and the negation of the continuum hypothesis, but some consistent with it. We analyze the above problem for a particular class of spaces. OCA+MA however, implies the nonexistence of any counterexample in this class but the existence of some other absolute example remains open.

We study the problem of the existence and uniqueness of a subspace $Y$ that complements $X_{\pi}$ in $X$. Similar questions for $G$-invariant complement to $X_{\pi}$ are considered. We prove that every non-amenable discrete group $G$ has a representation with non-complemented $X_{\pi}$ and find some conditions that provide an $G$-invariant complement. A special attention is given to representations on $C(K)$ that arise from an action of $G$ on a metric compact $K$.

Moreover, we define a superclass of the continuous images of weakly Radon-Nikod\'ym compact spaces and study its relation with Corson compacta and weakly Radon-Nikod\'ym compacta.

This is an announcement for the paper "Brascamp-Lieb inequality and quantitative versions of Helly's theorem" by Silouanos Brazitikos. Abstract: We provide a number of new quantitative versions of Helly's theorem. For example, we show that for every family $\{P_i:i\in I\}$ of closed half-spaces $$P_i=\{ x\in {\mathbb R}^n:\langle x,w_i\rangle \leq 1\}$$ in ${\mathbb R}^n$ such that $P=\bigcap_{i\in I}P_i$ has positive volume, there exist $s\leq \alpha n$ and $i_1,\ldots , i_s\in I$ such that $$|P_{i_1}\cap\cdots\cap P_{i_s}|\leq (Cn)^n\,|P|,$$ where $\alpha , C>0$ are absolute constants. These results complement and improve previous work of B\'{a}r\'{a}ny-Katchalski-Pach and Nasz\'{o}di. Our method combines the work of Srivastava on approximate John's decompositions with few vectors, a new estimate on the corresponding constant in the Brascamp-Lieb inequality and an appropriate variant of Ball's proof of the reverse isoperimetric inequality.

Abstract: A Banach space $X$ has Pe\l czy\' nski's property (V) if for every Banach space $Y$ every unconditionally converging operator $T\colon X\to Y$ is weakly compact. In 1962, Aleksander Pe\l czy\' nski showed that $C(K)$ spaces for a compact Hausdorff space $K$ enjoy the property (V), and some generalizations of this theorem have been proved since then. We introduce several possibilities of quantifying the property (V). We prove some characterizations of the introduced quantitative versions of this property, which allow us to prove a quantitative version of Pelczynski's result about $C(K)$ spaces and generalize it. Finally, we study the relationship of several properties of operators including weak compactness and unconditional convergence, and using the results obtained we establish a relation between quantitative versions of the property (V) and quantitative versions of other well known properties of Banach spaces.

Abstract: In this paper we study the properties of the normal cone to the proximally smooth set. We give the complete characterization of the proximally smooth set through the monotony properties of its normal cone in an arbitrary uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space.

Abstract: In this paper we study sufficient conditions for an operator to have an almost-invariant half-space. As a consequence, we show that if $X$ is an infinite-dimensional complex Banach space then every operator $T\in\mathcal{L}(X)$ admits an essentially-invariant half-space. We also show that whenever a closed algebra of operators possesses a common AIHS, then it has a common invariant half-space as well.

This is an announcement for the paper "Uo-convergence and its applications to Ces\`aro means in Banach lattices" by Niushan Gao, Vladimir G. Troitsky, and Foivos Xanthos. Abstract: A net $(x_\alpha)$ in a vector lattice $X$ is said to uo-converge to $x$ if $|x_\alpha-x|\wedge u\xrightarrow{\rm o}0$ for every $u\ge 0$. In the first part of this paper, we study some functional-analytic aspects of uo-convergence. We prove that uo-convergence is stable under passing to and from regular sublattices. This fact leads to numerous applications presented throughout the paper. In particular, it allows us to improve several results in [26,27]. In the second part, we use uo-convergence to study convergence of Ces\`aro means in Banach lattices. In particular, we establish an intrinsic version of Koml\'os' Theorem, which extends the main results of [35,16,31] in a uniform way. We also develop a new and unified approach to Banach-Saks properties and Banach-Saks operators based on uo-convergence. This approach yields, in particular, short direct proofs of several results in [21,24,25].

This is an announcement for the paper "Strict singularity of a Volterra-type integral operator on $H^p$" by Santeri Miihkinen. Abstract: We prove that a Volterra-type integral operator $T_gf(z) = \int_0^z f(\zeta)g'(\zeta)d\zeta, \, z \in \mathbb D,$ defined on Hardy spaces $H^p, \, 1 \le p < \infty,$ fixes an isomorphic copy of $\ell^p,$ if the operator $T_g$ is not compact. In particular, this shows that the strict singularity of the operator $T_g$ coincides with the compactness of the operator $T_g$ on spaces $H^p.$ As a consequence, we obtain a new proof for the equivalence of the compactness and the weak compactness of the operator $T_g$ on $H^1$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Snowflake universality of Wasserstein spaces" by Alexandr Andoni, Assaf Naor, and Ofer Neiman. Abstract: For $p\in (1,\infty)$ let $\mathscr{P}_p(\mathbb{R}^3)$ denote the metric space of all $p$-integrable Borel probability measures on $\mathbb{R}^3$, equipped with the Wasserstein $p$ metric $\mathsf{W}_p$. We prove that for every $\varepsilon>0$, every $\theta\in (0,1/p]$ and every finite metric space $(X,d_X)$, the metric space $(X,d_{X}^{\theta})$ embeds into $\mathscr{P}_p(\mathbb{R}^3)$ with distortion at most $1+\varepsilon$. We show that this is sharp when $p\in (1,2]$ in the sense that the exponent $1/p$ cannot be replaced by any larger number. In fact, for arbitrarily large $n\in \mathbb{N}$ there exists an $n$-point metric space $(X_n,d_n)$ such that for every $\alpha\in (1/p,1]$ any embedding of the metric space $(X_n,d_n^\alpha)$ into $\mathscr{P}_p(\mathbb{R}^3)$ incurs distortion that is at least a constant multiple of $(\log n)^{\alpha-1/p}$. These statements establish that there exists an Alexandrov space of nonnegative curvature, namely $\mathscr{P}_{\! 2}(\mathbb{R}^3)$, with respect to which there does not exist a sequence of bounded degree expander graphs. It also follows that $\mathscr{P}_{\! 2}(\mathbb{R}^3)$ does not admit a uniform, coarse, or quasisymmetric embedding into any Banach space of nontrivial type. Links to several longstanding open questions in metric geometry are discussed, including the characterization of subsets of Alexandrov spaces, existence of expanders, the universality problem for $\mathscr{P}_{\! 2}(\mathbb{R}^k)$, and the metric cotype dichotomy problem.

This is an announcement for the paper "Narrow Orthogonally Additive Operators on Lattice-Normed Spaces" by Xiao Chun Fang and Marat Pliev. Abstract: The aim of this article is to extend results of M.~Popov and second named author about orthogonally additive narrow operators on vector lattices. The main object of our investigations are an orthogonally additive narrow operators between lattice-normed spaces. We prove that every $C$-compact laterally-to-norm continuous orthogonally additive operator from a Banach-Kantorovich space $V$ to a Banach lattice $Y$ is narrow. We also show that every dominated Uryson operator from Banach-Kantorovich space over an atomless Dedekind complete vector lattice $E$ to a sequence Banach lattice $\ell_p(\Gamma)$ or $c_0(\Gamma)$ is narrow. Finally, we prove that if an orthogonally additive dominated operator $T$ from lattice-normed space $(V,E)$ to Banach-Kantorovich space $(W,F)$ is order narrow then the order narrow is its exact dominant $\ls T\rs$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Quantitative affine approximation for UMD targets" by Tuomas Hytonen, Sean Li, and Assaf Naor. Abstract: It is shown here that if $(Y,\|\cdot\|_Y)$ is a Banach space in which martingale differences are unconditional (a UMD Banach space) then there exists $c=c(Y)\in (0,\infty)$ with the following property. For every $n\in \mathbb{N}$ and $\varepsilon\in (0,1/2]$, if $(X,\|\cdot\|_X)$ is an $n$-dimensional normed space with unit ball $B_X$ and $f:B_X\to Y$ is a $1$-Lipschitz function then there exists an affine mapping $\Lambda:X\to Y$ and a sub-ball $B^*=y+\rho B_X\subseteq B_X$ of radius $\rho\ge \exp(-(1/\varepsilon)^{cn})$ such that $\|f(x)-\Lambda(x)\|_Y\le \varepsilon \rho$ for all $x\in B^*$. This estimate on the macroscopic scale of affine approximability of vector-valued Lipschitz functions is an asymptotic improvement (as $n\to \infty$) over the best previously known bound even when $X$ is $\mathbb{R}^n$ equipped with the Euclidean norm and $Y$ is a Hilbert space.

This is an announcement for the paper "Dvoretzky's theorem and the complexity of entanglement detection" by Guillaume Aubrun and Stanislaw Szarek. Abstract: The well-known Horodecki criterion asserts that a state $\rho$ on $\mathbb{C}^d \otimes \mathbb{C}^d$ is entangled if and only if there exists a positive map $\Phi : \mathsf{M}_d \to \mathsf{M}_d$ such that the operator $(\Phi \otimes \mathsf{I})(\rho)$ is not positive semi-definite. We show that that the number of such maps needed to detect all the robustly entangled states (i.e., states $\rho$ which remain entangled even in the presence of substantial randomizing noise) exceeds $\exp(c d^3 / \log d)$. The proof is based on a study of the approximability of the set of states (resp. of separable states) by polytopes with few vertices or with few faces, and ultimately relies on the Dvoretzky--Milman theorem about the dimension of almost spherical sections of convex bodies. The result can be interpreted as a geometrical manifestation of the complexity of entanglement detection.

This is an announcement for the paper "Haar meager sets revisited" by Martin Dolezal, Martin Rmoutil, Benjamin Vejnar, and Vaclav Vlasak. Abstract: In the present article we investigate Darji's notion of Haar meager sets from several directions. We consider alternative definitions and show that some of them are equivalent to the original one, while others fail to produce interesting notions. We define Haar meager sets in nonabelian Polish groups and show that many results, including the facts that Haar meager sets are meager and form a $\sigma$-ideal, are valid in the more general setting as well. The article provides various examples distinguishing Haar meager sets from Haar null sets, including decomposition theorems for some subclasses of Polish groups. As a corollary we obtain, for example, that $\mathbb Z^\omega$, $\mathbb R^\omega$ or any Banach space can be decomposed into a Haar meager set and a Haar null set. We also establish the stability of non-Haar meagerness under Cartesian product.

In order to do so, we provide bounds for the gaussian concentration of the $\ell_p$-norm.

This is an announcement for the paper "Riemann integrability versus weak continuity" by Gonzalo Martinez-Cervantes. Abstract: In this paper we focus on the relation between Riemann integrability and weak continuity. A Banach space $X$ is said to have the weak Lebesgue property if every Riemann integrable function from $[0,1]$ into $X$ is weakly continuous almost everywhere. We prove that the weak Lebesgue property is stable under $\ell_1$-sums and obtain new examples of Banach spaces with and without this property. Furthermore, we characterize Dunford-Pettis operators in terms of Riemann integrability and provide a quantitative result about the size of the set of $\tau$-continuous non Riemann integrable functions, with $\tau$ a locally convex topology weaker than the norm topology.

This is an announcement for the paper "John's ellipsoid and the integral ratio of a log-concave function" by David Alonso-Gutierrez, Bernardo Gonzalez Merino, Carlos Hugo Jimenez, and Rafael Villa. Abstract: We extend the notion of John's ellipsoid to the setting of integrable log-concave functions. This will allow us to define the integral ratio of a log-concave function, which will extend the notion of volume ratio, and we will find the log-concave function maximizing the integral ratio. A reverse functional a?ne isoperimetric inequality will be given, written in terms of this integral ratio. This can be viewed as a stability version of the functional affine isoperimetric inequality.

Abstract: A Banach space is said to be Grothendieck if weak and weak$^*$ convergent sequences in the dual space coincide. This notion has been quantificated by H. Bendov\'{a}. She has proved that $\ell_\infty$ has the quantitative Grothendieck property, namely, it is 1-Grothendieck. Our aim is to show that Banach spaces from a certain wider class are 1-Grothendieck, precisely, $C(K)$ is 1-Grothendieck provided $K$ is a totally disconnected compact space such that its algebra of clopen subsets has the so called Subsequential completeness property.

This is an announcement for the paper "Optimal domain of $q$-concave operators and vector measure representation of $q$-concave Banach lattices" by O. Delgado and E.A. Sanchez Perez. Abstract: Given a Banach space valued $q$-concave linear operator $T$ defined on a $\sigma$-order continuous quasi-Banach function space, we provide a description of the optimal domain of $T$ preserving $q$-concavity, that is, the largest $\sigma$-order continuous quasi-Banach function space to which $T$ can be extended as a $q$-concave operator. We show in this way the existence of maximal extensions for $q$-concave operators. As an application, we show a representation theorem for $q$-concave Banach lattices through spaces of integrable functions with respect to a vector measure. This result culminates a series of representation theorems for Banach lattices using vector measures that have been obtained in the last twenty years.

In this paper, we address this problem in the simpler case where $X$ is a random matrix but with the additional constraint that the selected columns be almost orthogonal to a given vector $v$.

Abstract: We investigate complex structures on twisted Hilbert spaces, with special attention paid to the Kalton-Peck $Z_2$ space and to the hyperplane problem. We consider (nontrivial) twisted Hilbert spaces generated by centralizers obtained from an interpolation scale of K\"othe function spaces. We show there are always complex structures on the Hilbert space that cannot be extended to the twisted Hilbert space. If, however, the scale is formed by rearrangement invariant K\"othe function spaces then there are complex structures on it that can be extended to a complex structure of the twisted Hilbert space. Regarding the hyperplane problem we show that no complex structure on $\ell_2$ can be extended to a complex structure on an hyperplane of $Z_2$ containing it.

This is an announcement for the paper "Weaving Schauder frames" by Peter G. Casazza, Daniel Freeman, and Richard G. Lynch. Abstract: We extend the concept of weaving Hilbert space frames to the Banach space setting. Similar to frames in a Hilbert space, we show that for any two approximate Schauder frames for a Banach space, every weaving is an approximate Schauder frame if and only if there is a uniform constant $C\geq 1$ such that every weaving is a $C$-approximate Schauder frame. We also study weaving Schauder bases, where it is necessary to introduce two notions of weaving. On one hand, we can ask if two Schauder bases are woven when considered as Schauder frames with their biorthogonal functionals, and alternatively, we can ask if each weaving of two Schauder bases remains a Schauder basis. We will prove that these two notions coincide when all weavings are unconditional, but otherwise they can be different. Lastly, we prove two perturbation theorems for approximate Schauder frames.

This is an announcement for the paper "Do Minkowski averages get progressively more convex?" by Matthieu Fradelizi, Mokshay Madiman, Arnaud Marsiglietti, and Artem Zvavitch. Abstract: Let us define, for a compact set $A \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, the Minkowski averages of $A$: $$ A(k) =3D \left\{\frac{a_1+\cdots +a_k}{k} : a_1, \ldo= ts, a_k\in A\right\}=3D\frac{1}{k}\Big(\underset{k\ {\rm times}}{\underbrace{= A + \cdots + A}}\Big). $$ We study the monotonicity of the convergence of $A(= k)$ towards the convex hull of $A$, when considering the Hausdorff distance, the volume deficit and a non-convexity index of Schneider as measures of convergence. For the volume deficit, we show that monotonicity fails in general, thus disproving a conjecture of Bobkov, Madiman and Wang. For Schneider's non-convexity index, we prove that a strong form of monotonic= ity holds, and for the Hausdorff distance, we establish that the sequence is eventually nonincreasing.

This is an announcement for the paper "Abstract Ces\`aro spaces: Integral representations" by Guillermo P. Curbera and Werner J. Ricker. Abstract: The Ces\`aro function spaces $Ces_p=[C,L^p]$, $1\le p\le\infty$, have received renewed attention in recent years. Many properties of $[C,L^p]$ are known. Less is known about $[C,X]$ when the Ces\`aro operator takes its values in a rearrangement invariant (r.i.) space $X$ other than $L^p$. In this paper we study the spaces $[C,X]$ via the methods of vector measures and vector integration. These techniques allow us to identify the absolutely continuous part of $[C,X]$ and the Fatou completion of $[C,X]$; to show that $[C,X]$ is never reflexive and never r.i.; to identify when $[C,X]$ is weakly sequentially complete, when it is isomorphic to an AL-space, and when it has the Dunford-Pettis property. The same techniques are used to analyze the operator $C:[C,X]\to X$; it is never compact but, it can be completely continuous.

This is an announcement for the paper "Isomorphic structure of Ces\`aro and Tandori spaces" by Sergey V. Astashkin, Karol Lesnik, and Lech Maligranda. Abstract: We investigate the isomorphic structure of the Ces\`aro spaces and their duals, the Tandori spaces. The main result states that the Ces\`aro function space $Ces_{\infty}$ and its sequence counterpart $ces_{\infty}$ are isomorphic, which answers to the question posted in \cite{AM09}. This is rather surprising since $Ces_{\infty}$ has no natural lattice predual similarly as the known Talagrand's example \cite{Ta81}. We prove that neither $ces_{\infty}$ is isomorphic to $l_{\infty}$ nor $Ces_{\infty}$ is isomorphic to the Tandori space $\widetilde{L_1}$ with the norm $\|f\|_{\widetilde{L_1}} =\|\widetilde{f}\|_{L_1},$ where $\widetilde{f}(t): \esssup_{s \geq t} |f(s)|.$ Our investigation involves also an examination of the Schur and Dunford-Pettis properties of Ces\`aro and Tandori spaces. In particular, using Bourgain's results we show that a wide class of Ces{\`a}ro-Marcinkiewicz and Ces{\`a}ro-Lorentz spaces have the latter property.

This is an announcement for the paper "Carl's inequality for quasi-Banach spaces" by Aicke Hinrichs, Anton Kolleck, and Jan Vybiral. Abstract: We prove that for any two quasi-Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ and any $\alpha>0$ there exists a constant $c_\alpha>0$ such that $$ \sup_{1\le k\le n}k^{\alpha}e_k(T)\le c_\alpha \sup_{1\le k\le n} k^\alpha c_k(T) $$ holds for all linear and bounded operators $T:X\to Y$. Here $e_k(T)$ is the $k$-th entropy number of $T$ and $c_k(T)$ is the $k$-th Gelfand number of $T$. For Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ this inequality is widely used and well-known as Carl's inequality. For general quasi-Banach spaces it is a new result, which closes a gap in the argument of Donoho in his seminal paper on compressed sensing.

This is an announcement for the paper "Absolutely summing operators and atomic decomposition in bi-parameter Hardy spaces" by Paul F.X. Muller and Johanna Penteker. Abstract: For $f \in H^p(\delta^2)$, $0<p\leq 2$, with Haar expansion $f=\sum f_{I \times J}h_{I\times J}$ we constructively determine the Pietsch measure of the $2$-summing multiplication operator \[\mathcal{M}_f:\ell^{\infty} \rightarrow H^p(\delta^2), \quad (\varphi_{I\times J}) \mapsto \sum \varphi_{I\times J}f_{I \times J}h_{I \times J}. \] Our method yields a constructive proof of Pisier's decomposition of $f \in H^p(\delta^2)$ \[|f|=|x|^{1-\theta}|y|^{\theta}\quad\quad \text{ and }\quad\quad \|x\|_{X_0}^{1-\theta}\|y\|^{\theta}_{H^2(\delta^2)}\leq C\|f\|_{H^p(\delta^2)}, \] where $X_0$ is Pisier's extrapolation lattice associated to $H^p(\delta^2)$ and $H^2(\delta^2)$. Our construction of the Pietsch measure for the multiplication operator $\mathcal{M}_f$ involves the Haar coefficients of $f$ and its atomic decomposition. We treated the one-parameter $H^p$-spaces in [P.F.X M\"uller, J.Penteker, $p$-summing multiplication operators, dyadic Hardy spaces and atomic decomposition, Houston Journal Math.,41(2):639-668,2015.].

This is an announcement for the paper "Asymptotic Smoothness, Convex Envelopes and Polynomial Norms" by Jesus A. Jaramillo, Raquel Gonzalo and Diego Yanez. Abstract: We introduce a suitable notion of asymptotic smoothness on infinite dimensional Banach spaces, and we prove that, under some structural restrictions on the space, the convex envelope of an asymptotically smooth function is asymptotically smooth. Furthermore, we study convexity and smoothness properties of polynomial norms, and we obtain that a polynomial norm of degree N has modulus of convexity of power type N.

This is an announcement for the paper "Distortion of embeddings of binary trees into diamond graphs" by Siu Lam Leung, Sarah Nelson, Sofiya Ostrovska, and Mikhail Ostrovskii. Abstract: Diamond graphs and binary trees are important examples in the theory of metri c embeddings and also in the theory of metric characterizations of Banach spaces. Some results for these families of graphs are parallel to each other, for example superreflexivity of Banach spaces can be characterized both in terms of binary trees (Bourgain, 1986) and diamond graphs (Johnson-Schechtman, 2009). In this connection, it is natural to ask whether one of these families admits uniformly bilipschitz embeddings into the other. This question was answered in the negative by Ostrovskii (2014), who left it open to determine the order of growth of the distortions. The main purpose of this paper is to get a sharp-up-to-a-logarithmic-factor estimate for the distortions of embeddings of binary trees into diamond graphs.

This is an announcement for the paper "Nonexistence of embeddings with uniformly bounded distortions of Laakso graphs into diamond graphs" by Sofiya Ostrovska and Mikhail I. Ostrovskii. Abstract: Diamond graphs and Laakso graphs are important examples in the theory of metric embeddings. Many results for these families of graphs are similar to each other. In this connection, it is natural to ask whether one of these families admits uniformly bilipschitz embeddings into the other. The well-known fact that Laakso graphs are uniformly doubling but diamond graphs are not, immediately implies that diamond graphs do not admit uniformly bilipschitz embeddings into Laakso graphs. The main goal of this paper is to prove that Laakso graphs do not admit uniformly bilipschitz embeddings into diamond graphs.

This is an announcement for the paper "Estimates for measures of lower dimensional sections of convex bodies" by Giorgos Chasapis, Apostolos Giannopoulos and Dimitris-Marios Liakopoulos. Abstract: We present an alternative approach to some results of Koldobsky on measures of sections of symmetric convex bodies, which allows us to extend them to the not necessarily symmetric setting. We prove that if $K$ is a convex body in ${\mathbb R}^n$ with $0\in {\rm int}(K)$ and if $\mu $ is a measure on ${\mathbb R}^n$ with a locally integrable non-negative density $g$ on ${\mathbb R}^n$, then \begin{equation*}\mu (K)\leq \left (c\sqrt{n-k}\right )^k\max_{F\in G_{n,n-k}}\mu (K\cap F)\cdot |K|^{\frac{k}{n}}\end{equation*} for every $1\leq k\leq n-1$. Also, if $\mu $ is even and log-concave, and if $K$ is a symmetric convex body in ${\mathbb R}^n$ and $D$ is a compact subset of ${\mathbb R}^n$ such that $\mu (K\cap F)\leq \mu (D\cap F)$ for all $F\in G_{n,n-k}$, then \begin{equation*}\mu (K)\leq \left (ckL_{n-k}\right )^{k}\mu (D),\end{equation*} where $L_s$ is the maximal isotropic constant of a convex body in ${\mathbb R}^s$. Our method employs a generalized Blaschke-Petkantschin formula and estimates for the dual affine quermassintegrals.

Abstract: We study the different ways in which a weakly compact set can generate a Banach lattice. Among other things, it is shown that in an order continuous Banach lattice $X$, the existence of a weakly compact set $K \subset X$ such that $X$ coincides with the band generated by $K$, implies that $X$ is WCG.

This is an announcement for the paper "Correspondences between model theory and banach space theory" by Karim Khanaki. Abstract: In \cite{K3} we pointed out the correspondence between a result of Shelah in model theory, i.e. a theory is unstable if and only if it has IP or SOP, and the well known compactness theorem of Eberlein and \v{S}mulian in functional analysis. In this paper, we relate a {\em natural} Banach space $V$ to a formula $\phi(x,y)$, and show that $\phi$ is stable (resp NIP, NSOP) if and only if $V$ is reflexive (resp Rosenthal, weakly sequentially complete) Banach space. Also, we present a proof of the Eberlein-\v{S}mulian theorem by a model theoretic approach using Ramsey theorems which is illustrative to show some correspondences between model theory and Banach space theory.
