This is an announcement for the paper "Metric characterizations of
superreflexivity in terms of word groups and finite graphs" by Mikhail
Ostrovskii.


Abstract: We show that superreflexivity can be characterized in terms
of bilipschitz embeddability of word hyperbolic groups. We compare
characterizations of superreflexivity in terms of diamond graphs and
binary trees. We show that there exist sequences of series-parallel
graphs of increasing topological complexity which admit uniformly
bilipschitz embeddings into a Hilbert space, and thus do not characterize
superreflexivity.

This is an announcement for the paper "Finite forms of Gowers' theorem
on the oscillation stability of $c_0$" by Diana Ojeda-Aristizabal.


Abstract: We give a constructive proof of the finite version of Gowers'
$FIN_k$ Theorem and analyse the corresponding upper bounds. The $FIN_k$
Theorem is closely related to the oscillation stability of $c_0$. The
stabilization of Lipschitz functions on arbitrary finite dimensional
Banach spaces was studied well before by V. Milman. We compare the finite
$FIN_k$ Theorem with the finite stabilization principle in the case of
spaces of the form $\ell_{\infty}^n$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and establish a
much slower growing upper bound for the finite stabilization principle
in this particular case.

This is an announcement for the paper "The planar Busemann-Petty centroid
inequality and its stability" by Mohammad N. Ivaki.


Abstract: In [Centro-affine invariants for smooth convex bodies,
Int. Math. Res.  Notices. doi: 10.1093/imrn/rnr110, 2011] Stancu
introduced a family of centro-affine normal flows, $p$-flow, for $1\leq
p<\infty.$ Here we investigate the asymptotic behavior of the planar
$p$-flow for $p=\infty$, in the class of smooth, origin-symmetric convex
bodies. The motivation is the Busemann-Petty centroid inequality. First,
we prove that the $\infty$-flow evolves appropriately normalized
origin-symmetric solutions to the unit disk in the Hausdorff metric,
modulo $SL(2).$ Second, as an application of this weak convergence,
we prove the planar Busemann-Petty centroid inequality in the of class
convex bodies having the origin of the plane in their interiors. Third,
using the $\infty$-flow, we prove a stability version of the planar
Busemann-Petty centroid inequality, in the Banach-Mazur distance, in
the class of origin-symmetric convex bodies. Fourth, we prove that the
convergence in the Hausdorff metric can be improved to convergence in
the $\mathcal{C}^{\infty}$ topology.

This is an announcement for the paper "Metric spaces nonembeddable
into Banach spaces with the property and thick families of geodesics"
by Mikhail Ostrovskii.


Abstract: We show that a geodesic metric space which does not admit
bilipschitz embeddings into Banach spaces with the Radon-Nikod\'ym
property does not necessarily contain a bilipschitz image of a thick
family of geodesics.  This is done by showing that any thick family of
geodesics is not Markov convex, and comparing this result with results of
Cheeger-Kleiner, Lee-Naor, and Li. The result contrasts with the earlier
result of the author that any Banach space without the Radon-Nikod\'ym
property contains a bilipschitz image of a thick family of geodesics.

property for numerical radius" by Sun Kwang Kim, Han Ju Lee and Miguel
Martin.


Abstract: We study the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as property for numerical
radius (in short, BPBp-$\nuu$) and find sufficient conditions for
Banach spaces ensuring the BPBp-$\nuu$. Among other results, we show
that $L_1(\mu)$-spaces have this property for every measure $\mu$. On
the other hand, we show that every infinite-dimensional separable Banach
space can be renormed to fail the BPBp-$\nuu$. In particular, this shows
that the Radon-Nikod\'{y}m property (even reflexivity) is not enough to
get BPBp-$\nuu$.

Abstract: Let $(X,\left\Vert \cdot \right\Vert )$ be a real normed
space of dimension $N\in \mathbb{N}$ with a basis $(e_{i})_{1}^{N}$
such that the norm is invariant under coordinate permutations. Assume
for simplicity that the basis constant is at most $2$. Consider any $n\in
\mathbb{N}$ and $0<\varepsilon <1/4$ such that $n\leq c(\log \varepsilon
^{-1})^{-1}\log N$. We provide an explicit construction of a matrix that
generates a $(1+\varepsilon )$ embedding of $\ell _{2}^{n}$ into $X$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Non-existence of greedy bases
in direct sums of mixed $\ell_{p}$ spaces" by Fernando Albiac and Jose
L. Ansorena.


Abstract: The fact that finite direct sums of two or more mutually
different spaces from the family $\{\ell_{p} : 1\le p<\infty\}\cup c_{0}$
fail to have greedy bases is stated in [Dilworth et al., Greedy bases
for Besov spaces, Constr.  Approx. 34 (2011), no. 2, 281-296]. However,
the concise proof that the authors give of this fundamental result
in greedy approximation relies on a fallacious argument, namely the
alleged uniqueness of unconditional basis up to permutation of the
spaces involved. The main goal of this note is to settle the problem by
providing a correct proof. For that we first show that all greedy bases
in an $\ell_{p}$ space have fundamental functions of the same order. As
a by-product of our work we obtain that {\it every} almost greedy basis
of a Banach space with unconditional basis and nontrivial type contains
a greedy subbasis.

This is an announcement for the paper "A complete classification of
the spaces of compact operators on    C([1,alpha], l_p) spaces, 1<p<
infinity" by Dale E. Alspach and Eloi Medina Galego.


Abstract: We complete the classification, up to isomorphism, of the spaces
of compact operators on C([1, gamma], l_p) spaces, 1<p< infinity. In
order to do this, we classify, up to isomorphism, the spaces of compact
operators {\mathcal K}(E, F), where E= C([1, lambda], l_p) and F=C([1,xi],
l_q) for arbitrary ordinals lambda and xi and 1< p \leq q< infinity.
   More precisely, we prove that it is relatively consistent with ZFC
that for any infinite ordinals lambda, mu, xi and eta the following
statements are equivalent:
   (a) {\mathcal K}(C([1, lambda], l_p), C([1, xi], l_q)) is isomorphic to
{\mathcal K}(C([1, mu], l_p), C([1, eta], l_q)) .
   (b) lambda and mu have the same cardinality and C([1,xi]) is
isomorphic to C([1, eta]) or there exists an uncountable regular ordinal
alpha and 1 \leq m, n < omega such that C([1, xi]) is isomorphic to C([1,
alpha m]) and C([1,eta]) is isomorphic to C([1, alpha n]).
   Moreover, in ZFC, if lambda and mu are finite ordinals and xi and
eta are infinite ordinals then the statements (a) and (b') are equivalent.
   (b') C([1,xi]) is isomorphic to C([1, eta]) or there exists an
uncountable regular ordinal alpha and 1 \leq m, n \leq omega such that
C([1, xi]) is isomorphic to C([1, alpha m]) and C([1,eta]) is isomorphic
to C([1, alpha n]).

Abstract: This survey covers in our opinion the most important
results in the theory of continuous selections of multivalued mappings
(approximately) from 2002 through 2012. It extends and continues our
previous such survey which appeared in Recent Progress in General
Topology, II, which was published in 2002. In comparison, our present
survey considers more restricted and specific areas of mathematics. Note
that we do not consider the theory of selectors (i.e.  continuous choices
of elements from subsets of topological spaces) since this topics is
covered by another survey in this volume.

This is an announcement for the paper "Strong property (T) for higher
rank simple Lie groups" by Tim de Laat and Mikael de la Salle.


Abstract: We prove that connected higher rank simple Lie groups have
Lafforgue's strong property (T) with respect to a certain class of Banach
spaces $\mathcal{E}_{10}$ containing many classical superreflexive
spaces and some non-reflexive spaces as well. This generalizes the
result of Lafforgue asserting that $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{R})$ has strong
property (T) with respect to Hilbert spaces and the more recent result
of the second named author asserting that $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{R})$
has strong property (T) with respect to a certain larger class of
Banach spaces. For the generalization to higher rank groups, it is
sufficient to prove strong property (T) for $\mathrm{Sp}(2,\mathbb{R})$
and its universal covering group. As consequences of our main result,
it follows that for $X \in \mathcal{E}_{10}$, connected higher rank
simple Lie groups and their lattices have property (F$_X$) of Bader,
Furman, Gelander and Monod, and the expanders contructed from a lattice
in such a group do not admit a coarse embedding into $X$.

This is an announcement for the paper "The generalized roundness
of $\ell_\infty^{(3)}$ revisited" by Ian Doust, Stephen Sanchez and
Anthony Weston.


Abstract: Metric spaces of generalized roundness zero have interesting
non-embedding properties. For instance, we note that no metric space of
generalized roundness zero is isometric to any metric subspace of any
$L_{p}$-space for which $0 < p \leq 2$. Lennard, Tonge and Weston gave
an indirect proof that $\ell_{\infty}^{(3)}$ has generalized roundness
zero by appealing to highly non-trivial isometric embedding theorems
of Bretagnolle Dacunha-Castelle and Krivine, and Misiewicz. In this
paper we give a direct proof that $\ell_{\infty}^{(3)}$ has generalized
roundness zero. This provides insight into the combinatorial geometry of
$\ell_{\infty}^{(3)}$ that causes the generalized roundness inequalities
to fail. We complete the paper by noting a characterization of real
quasi-normed spaces of generalized roundness zero.

Announcing an Informal Analysis Seminar focusing on Universality Friday
afternoon, April 11, 2014 through early Sunday afternoon, April 13, 2014

This meeting has received generous funding from Elsevier, with additional
support from Kent State University. This meeting should be especially
attractive to non-specialists, and in particular to students and
new PhD's. The reason is that the Friday afternoon session is being
devoted to three expository talks, aimed at a non- specialist audience,
on Universality by three excellent speakers: Paul Gauthier (Montreal),
Pamela Gorkin (Bucknell), and Vassili Nestoridis (Athens).

Our speakers on Saturday and Sunday will be Juan Bès, Kit Chan,
Paul Gauthier, Pamela Gorkin, Manuel Maestre, Myrto Manolaki, Vassili
Nestoridis, and Rebecca Sanders.

Also, there is a reasonable possibility of (very) partial support for
students and junior participants.

Registration is free, but we ask intending participants to let us know
of their interest. For further information, please consult:

This is an announcement for the paper "Subprojective Banach spaces"
by Timur Oikhberg and Eugeniu Spinu.


Abstract: A Banach space $X$ is called subprojective if any of its
infinite dimensional subspaces $Y$ contains a further infinite dimensional
subspace complemented in $X$. This paper is devoted to systematic study
of subprojectivity. We examine the stability of subprojectivity of Banach
spaces under various operations, such us direct or twisted sums, tensor
products, and forming spaces of operators. Along the way, we obtain new
classes of subprojective spaces.

spaces and spaceability" by Cesar Ruiz and Victor M. Sanchez.


Abstract: In this paper, we study the existence of infinite dimensional
closed linear subspaces of a rearrangement invariant space on [0,1] every
nonzero element of which does not belong to any included rearrangement
invariant space of the same class such that the inclusion operator is
disjointly strictly singular. We consider Lorentz, Marcinkiewicz and
Orlicz spaces. The answer is affirmative for Marcinkiewicz spaces and
negative for Lorentz and Orlicz spaces. Also, the same problem is studied
for Nakano spaces assuming different hypothesis.

block inside a matrix" by Pierre Youssef.


Abstract: Given $U$ an $n\times m$ matrix of rank $n$ and $V$ block
of columns inside $U$, we consider the problem of extracting a block
of columns of rank $n$ which minimize the Hilbert-Schmidt norm of the
inverse while preserving the block $V$. This generalizes a previous
result of Gluskin-Olevskii, and improves the estimates when given a
"good" block $V$.

result holds independently from the properties of the boundary of

for log concave functions" by Umut Caglar and Elisabeth M. Werner.


Abstract: Mixed f-divergences, a concept from information theory
and statistics, measure the difference between multiple pairs of
distributions. We introduce them for log concave functions and establish
some of their properties. Among them are affine invariant vector entropy
inequalities, like new Alexandrov-Fenchel type inequalities and an affine
isoperimetric inequality for the vector form of the Kullback Leibler
divergence for log concave functions.  Special cases of f-divergences
are mixed L_\lambda-affine surface areas for log concave functions. For
those, we establish various affine isoperimetric inequalities as well
as a vector Blaschke Santalo type inequality.

decompositions for vector lattice-valued" by Domenico Candeloro and Anna
Rita Sambucini.


Abstract: Filter convergence of vector lattice-valued measures is
considered, in order to deduce theorems of convergence for their
decompositions. First the $\sigma$-additive case is studied, without
particular assumptions on the filter; later the finitely additive case is
faced, first assuming uniform $s$-boundedness (without restrictions on the
filter), then relaxing this condition but imposing stronger properties on
the filter. In order to obtain the last results, a Schur-type convergence
theorem is used.

This is an announcement for the paper "Coincidence of extendible
vector-valued ideals with their minimal" by Daniel Galicer and Roman
Villafane.


Abstract: We provide coincidence results for vector-valued ideals of
multilinear operators. More precisely, if $\mathfrak A$ is an ideal of
$n$-linear mappings we give conditions for which the following equality
$\mathfrak A(E_1,\dots,E_n;F) = {\mathfrak A}^{min}(E_1,\dots,E_n;F)$
holds isometrically.  As an application, we obtain in many cases
that the monomials form a Schauder basis on the space $\mathfrak
A(E_1,\dots,E_n;F)$. Several structural and geometric properties are also
derived using this equality. We apply our results to the particular
case where $\mathfrak A$ is the classical ideal of extendible or
Pietsch-integral multilinear operators. Similar statements are given
for ideals of vector-valued homogeneous polynomials.
  For our purposes we also establish a vector-valued version of the
Littlewood-Bogdanowicz-Pe{\l}czy\'nski theorem, which we believe is
interesting in its own right.

to numerical radius" by Asuman G. Aksoy and Grzegorz Lewicki.


Abstract: In this paper we survey some results on minimality of
projections with respect to numerical radius. We note that in the cases
$L^p$, $p=1,2,\infty$, there is no difference between the minimality
of projections measured either with respect to operator norm or with
respect to numerical radius. However, we give an example of a projection
from $l^p_3$ onto a two-dimensional subspace which is minimal with
respect to norm, but not with respect to numerical radius for $p\neq
1,2,\infty$. Furthermore, utilizing a theorem of Rudin and motivated
by Fourier projections, we give a criterion for minimal projections,
measured in numerical radius. Additionally, some results concerning strong
unicity of minimal projections with respect to numerical radius are given.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the mean-width of isotropic
convex bodies and their associated $L_p$-centroid bodies" by Emanuel
Milman.


Abstract: For any origin-symmetric convex body $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$
in isotropic position, we obtain the bound: \[ M^*(K) \leq C \sqrt{n}
\log(n)^2 L_K ~, \] where $M^*(K)$ denotes (half) the mean-width of
$K$, $L_K$ is the isotropic constant of $K$, and $C>0$ is a universal
constant. This improves the previous best-known estimate $M^*(K) \leq C
n^{3/4} L_K$. Up to the power of the $\log(n)$ term and the $L_K$ one, the
improved bound is best possible, and implies that the isotropic position
is (up to the $L_K$ term) an almost $2$-regular $M$-position. The bound
extends to any arbitrary position, depending on a certain weighted average
of the eigenvalues of the covariance matrix. Furthermore, the bound
applies to the mean-width of $L_p$-centroid bodies, extending a sharp
upper bound of Paouris for $1 \leq p \leq \sqrt{n}$ to an almost-sharp
bound for an arbitrary $p \geq \sqrt{n}$. The question of whether it
is possible to remove the $L_K$ term from the new bound is essentially
equivalent to the Slicing Problem, to within logarithmic factors in $n$.

Abstract: We will construct Banach function space norms arising as weak

different from the Orlicz type approach. It turns out that the duality of
these spaces behaves in an anticipated way, same as the uniform convexity
and uniform smoothness.

This is an announcement for the paper "Almost square Banach spaces"
by Trond A. Abrahamsen, Johann Langemets, and Vegard Lima.


Abstract: We single out and study a natural class of Banach spaces
-- almost square Banach spaces. These spaces have duals that are
octahedral and finite convex combinations of slices of the unit ball of
an almost square space have diameter 2. We provide several examples and
characterizations of almost square spaces.  In an almost square space we
can find, given a finite set $x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_N$ in the unit sphere,
a unit vector $y$ such that $\|x_i+y\|$ is almost one.  We prove that
non-reflexive spaces which are M-ideals in their biduals are almost
square.
  We show that every space containing a copy of $c_0$ can be renormed
to be almost square. A local and a weak version of almost square spaces
are also studied.

This is an announcement for the paper "$M$-estimates for isotropic convex
bodies and their $L_q$-centroid bodies" by Apostolos Giannopoulos and
Emanuel Milman.


Abstract: Let $K$ be a centrally-symmetric convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$
and let $\|\cdot\|$ be its induced norm on ${\mathbb R}^n$. We show
that if $K \supseteq r B_2^n$ then: \[ \sqrt{n} M(K) \leqslant C
\sum_{k=1}^{n} \frac{1}{\sqrt{k}} \min\left(\frac{1}{r} , \frac{n}{k}
\log\Big(e + \frac{n}{k}\Big) \frac{1}{v_{k}^{-}(K)}\right) . \] where
$M(K)=\int_{S^{n-1}} \|x\|\, d\sigma(x)$ is the mean-norm, $C>0$ is a
universal constant, and $v^{-}_k(K)$ denotes the minimal volume-radius of
a $k$-dimensional orthogonal projection of $K$. We apply this result to
the study of the mean-norm of an isotropic convex body $K$ in ${\mathbb
R}^n$ and its $L_q$-centroid bodies. In particular, we show that if $K$
has isotropic constant $L_K$ then: \[
   M(K) \leqslant \frac{C\log^{2/5}(e+ n)}{\sqrt[10]{n}L_K} . \]

This is an announcement for the paper "Quantifying (weak) injectivity
of a Banach space and its second dual" by Duanxu Dai.


Abstract: Let $X$, $Y$ be two Banach spaces. Let $\varepsilon\geq
0$. A mapping $f: X\rightarrow Y$ is said a standard $\varepsilon-$
isometry if $f(0)=0$ and $\|f(x)-f(y)\|-\|x-y\|\leq \eps$. In this
paper, we first show that if $X$ is a separable Banach space and $Y^*$
has the point of $w^*$-norm continuity property(in short,$w^*$-PCP),
then for every standard $\varepsilon-$ isometry $f:X\rightarrow Y$
there exists a $w^*$-dense $G_\delta$ subset $\Omega$ of $ExtB_{X^*}$
such that there is a bounded linear operator $T: Y\rightarrow
C(\Omega,\tau_{w^*})$ with $\|T\|=1$ such that $Tf-Id$ is uniformly
bounded by $4\eps$ on $X$. More general results are also given. As a
corollary, we obtain quantitative characterizations of injectivity,
cardinality injectivity and separably injectivity of a Banach space
and its second dual which turn out to give a positive answer to Qian's
problem of 1995 in the sense of universality.  We also discuss Qian's
problem in a $\mathcal{L}_{\infty,\lambda}$-space, $C(K)$-space for
a compact Hausdorff space $K$. Moreover, by using some results from
Avil$\acute{e}$s-S$\acute{a}$nchez-Castillo-Gonz$\acute{a}$lez- Moreno,
Cheng-Dong-Zhang, Johnson-Oikhberg, Rosenthal and Lindenstrauss, estimates
for several separably injective Banach spaces are given. Finally, we
show a more sharp quantitative and generalized Sobczyk 's theorem.

This is an announcement for the paper "$H^\infty$ functional calculus
and maximal inequalities for semigroups of contractions on vector-valued
$L_p$-spaces" by Quanhua Xu.


Abstract: Let $\{T_t\}_{t>0}$ be a strongly continuous semigroup of
positive contractions on $L_p(X,\mu)$ with $1<p<\infty$. Let $E$ be
a UMD Banach lattice of measurable functions on another measure space
$(\Omega,\nu)$. For $f\in L_p(X; E)$ define
   $$\mathcal M(f)(x,
\omega)=\sup_{t>0}\frac1t\Big|\int_0^tT_s(f(\cdot,\omega))(x)ds\Big|,\quad
(x,\omega)\in X\times\Omega.$$ Then the following maximal ergodic
inequality holds
   $$\big\|\mathcal M(f)\big\|_{L_p(X; E)}\lesssim \big\|f\big\|_{L_p(X;
E)},\quad f\in L_p(X; E).$$ If the semigroup $\{T_t\}_{t>0}$ is
additionally assumed to be analytic, then $\{T_t\}_{t>0}$ extends to
an analytic semigroup on $L_p(X; E)$ and $\mathcal M(f)$ in the above
inequality can be replaced by the following sectorial maximal function
   $$\mathcal T_\theta(f)(x, \omega)=\sup_{|{\rm
arg}(z)|<\theta}\big|T_z(f(\cdot,\omega))(x)\big|$$ for some $\theta>0$.
   Under the latter analyticity assumption and if $E$ is a complex
   interpolation
space between a Hilbert space and a UMD Banach space, then $\{T_t\}_{t>0}$
extends to an analytic semigroup on $L_p(X; E)$ and its negative generator
has a bounded $H^\infty(\Sigma_\sigma)$ calculus for some $\sigma<\pi/2$.

This is an announcement for the paper "On vector-valued tent spaces
and Hardy spaces associated with non-negative self-adjoint operators"
by Mikko Kemppainen.


Abstract: In this paper we study Hardy spaces associated with non-negative
self-adjoint operators and develop their vector-valued theory. The
complex interpolation scales of vector-valued tent spaces and Hardy
spaces are extended to the endpoint p=1. The holomorphic functional
calculus of L is also shown to be bounded on the associated Hardy space
H^1_L(X). These results, along with the atomic decomposition for the
aforementioned space, rely on boundedness of certain integral operators
on the tent space T^1(X).

surface area and entropy" by U. Caglar, M. Fradelizi, O. Guedon, J. Lehec,
C. Schuett and E. M.  Werner.


Abstract: In contemporary convex geometry, the rapidly developing
L_p-Brunn Minkowski theory is a modern analogue of the classical Brunn
Minkowski theory. A cornerstone of this theory is the L_p-affine surface
area for convex bodies.  Here, we introduce a functional form of this
concept, for log concave and s-concave functions. We show that the new
functional form is a generalization of the original L_p-affine surface
area. We prove duality relations and affine isoperimetric inequalities
for log concave and s-concave functions. This leads to a new inverse
log-Sobolev inequality for s-concave densities.

This is an announcement for the paper "Bourgain-Delbaen
$\mathcal{L}^{\infty}$-sums of Banach spaces" by Despoina Zisimopoulou.


Abstract: Motivated by a problem stated by S.A.Argyros and
Th. Raikoftsalis, we introduce a new class of Banach spaces. Namely, for a
sequence of separable Banach spaces $(X_n,\|\cdot\|_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$,
we define the Bourgain Delbaen $\mathcal{L}^{\infty}$-sum of the sequence
$(X_n,\|\cdot\|_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ which is a Banach space $\mathcal{Z}$
constructed with the Bourgain-Delbaen method. In particular, for every
$1\leq p<\infty$, taking $X_n=\ell_p$ for every $n\in\mathbb{N}$ the
aforementioned space $\mathcal{Z}_p$ is strictly quasi prime and admits
$\ell_p$ as a complemented subspace. We study the operators acting on
$\mathcal{Z}_p$ and we prove that for every $n\in\mathbb{N}$, the space
$\mathcal{Z}^n_p=\sum_{i=1}^n\oplus \mathcal{Z}_p$ admits exactly $n+1$,
pairwise not isomorphic, complemented subspaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Dual spaces to Orlicz - Lorentz
spaces" by Anna Kaminska, Karol Lesnik, and Yves Raynaud.


Abstract: For an Orlicz function $\varphi$ and a decreasing weight $w$,
two intrinsic exact descriptions are presented for the norm in the
K\"othe dual of an Orlicz-Lorentz function space $\Lambda_{\varphi,w}$
or a sequence space $\lambda_{\varphi,w}$, equipped with either
Luxemburg or Amemiya norms. The first description of the dual norm is
given via the modular $\inf\{\int\varphi_*(f^*/|g|)|g|: g\prec w\}$,
where $f^*$ is the decreasing rearrangement of $f$, $g\prec w$ denotes
the submajorization of $g$ by $w$ and $\varphi_*$ is the complementary
function to $\varphi$. The second one is stated in terms of the modular
$\int_I \varphi_*((f^*)^0/w)w$, where $(f^*)^0$ is Halperin's level
function of $f^*$ with respect to $w$. That these two descriptions
are equivalent results from the identity $\inf\{\int\psi(f^*/|g|)|g|:
g\prec w\}=\int_I \psi((f^*)^0/w)w$ valid for any measurable function $f$
and Orlicz function $\psi$. Analogous identity and dual representations
are also presented for sequence spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "New Orlicz affine isoperimetric
inequalities" by Deping Ye.


Abstract: The Orlicz-Brunn-Minkowski theory receives considerable
attention recently, and many results in the $L_p$-Brunn-Minkowski theory
have been extended to their Orlicz counterparts. The aim of this paper
is to develop Orlicz $L_{\phi}$ affine and geominimal surface areas
for single convex body as well as for multiple convex bodies, which
generalize the $L_p$ (mixed) affine and geominimal surface areas --
fundamental concepts in the $L_p$-Brunn-Minkowski theory. Our extensions
are different from the general affine surface areas by Ludwig (in
Adv. Math. 224 (2010)). Moreover, our definitions for Orlicz $L_{\phi}$
affine and geominimal surface areas reveal that these affine invariants
are essentially the infimum/supremum of $V_{\phi}(K, L^\circ)$, the Orlicz
$\phi$-mixed volume of $K$ and the polar body of $L$, where $L$ runs over
all star bodies and all convex bodies, respectively, with volume of $L$
equal to the volume of the unit Euclidean ball $B_2^n$. Properties for
the Orlicz $L_{\phi}$ affine and geominimal surface areas, such as,
affine invariance and monotonicity, are proved. Related Orlicz affine
isoperimetric inequalities are also established.

Abstract: Let X be an in?nite-dimensional Banach space. In 1995, settling
a long outstanding problem of Pettis, Dilworth and Girardi constructed an
X-valued Pettis integrable function on [0; 1] whose primitive is nowhere
weakly di?erentiable. Using their technique and some new ideas we show
that ND, the set of strongly measurable Pettis integrable functions with
nowhere weakly di?erentiable primitives, is lineable, i.e., there is an
in?nite dimensional vector space whose nonzero vectors belong to ND.

a coarse quotient of $L_p\equiv L_p[0,1]$, $1<p<\infty$, is isomorphic
to a linear quotient of $L_p$. It is also proved that $\ell_q$ is not a
coarse quotient of $\ell_p$ for $1<p<q<\infty$ using Rolewicz's property

Abstract: The paper is devoted to the relationship between almost limited

$-Dedekind complete Banach lattice then, every almost limited operator
$T:E\rightarrow F $ is weakly compact if and only if $E$ is reflexive
or the norm of $F$ is order continuous. Also, we show that if $E$ is

positive almost limited operator $ T:E\rightarrow E$ is weakly compact
if and only if the norm of $E$ is order continuous.

This is an announcement for the paper "Explicit matrices with the
Restricted Isometry Property: Breaking the square-root bottleneck"
by Dustin G. Mixon.

Abstract: Matrices with the restricted isometry property (RIP) are
of particular interest in compressed sensing. To date, the best
known RIP matrices are constructed using random processes, while
explicit constructions are notorious for performing at the "square-root
bottleneck," i.e., they only accept sparsity levels on the order of the
square root of the number of measurements. The only known explicit matrix
which surpasses this bottleneck was constructed by Bourgain, Dilworth,
Ford, Konyagin and Kutzarova. This chapter provides three contributions
to further the groundbreaking work of Bourgain et al.: (i) we develop an
intuition for their matrix construction and underlying proof techniques;
(ii) we prove a generalized version of their main result; and (iii)
we apply this more general result to maximize the extent to which their
matrix construction surpasses the square-root bottleneck.

This is an announcement for the paper "Two application of nets" by Ralf
Beckmann and Anton Deitmar.

Abstract: Two applications of nets are given. The first is an extension
of the Bochner integral to arbitrary locally convex spaces, leading to an
integration theorye of more general vector valued functions then in the
classical approach by Gelfand and Pettis. The second application starts
with the observation that an operator on a Hilbert space is trace class if
and only if the net of ``principal trace minors'' converges. The notion
of a ``determinant class operator'' then is defined as one for which the
net of determinantal principal minors converges. It is shown that for
a normal operator A this condition coincides with 1-A being trace class.

This is an announcement for the paper "Renorming spaces with greedy bases"
by S. J. Dilworth, D. Kutzarova, E. Odell, Th. Schlumprecht and A. Zsak.

Abstract: We study the problem of improving the greedy constant or the
democracy constant of a basis of a Banach space by renorming. We prove
that every Banach space with a greedy basis can be renormed, for a
given $\vare>0$, so that the basis becomes $(1+\vare)$-democratic, and
hence $(2+\vare)$-greedy, with respect to the new norm. If in addition
the basis is bidemocratic, then there is a renorming so that in the new
norm the basis is $(1+\vare)$-greedy. We also prove that in the latter
result the additional assumption of the basis being bidemocratic can
be removed for a large class of bases. Applications include the Haar
systems in $L_p[0,1]$, $1<p<\infty$, and in dyadic Hardy space $H_1$,
as well as the unit vector basis of Tsirelson space.

Abstract: The Lipschitz geometry of segments of the infinite Hamming
cube is studied.  Tight estimates on the distortion necessary to
embed the segments into spaces of continuous functions on countable
compact metric spaces are given. As an application, the first nontrivial
lower bounds on the $C(K)$-distortion of important classes of separable
Banach spaces, where $K$ is a countable compact space in the family $ \{
[0,\omega],[0,\omega\cdot 2],\dots, [0,\omega^2], \dots, [0,\omega^k\cdot
n],\dots,[0,\omega^\omega]\}\ ,$ are obtained.

This is an announcement for the paper "Monotone retractability and
retractional skeletons" by Marek Cuth and Ondrej F.K. Kalenda.


Abstract: We prove that a countably compact space is monotonically
retractable if and only if it has a full retractional skeleton. In
particular, a compact space is monotonically retractable if and only if it
is Corson. This gives an answer to a question of R. Rojas-Hern{\'a}ndez
and V. V. Tkachuk. Further, we apply this result to characterize
retractional skeleton using a topology on the space of continuous
functions, answering thus a question of the first author and a related
question of W. Kubi\'s.

Abstract: We study extendibility of diagonal multilinear operators from

for which every diagonal $n$-linear operator is extendible, and those
for which the only extendible ones are integral. We address the same

The Summer Informal Regional Functional Analysis Seminar (SUMIRFAS)
will be held July 25-27.

July 21-25 there will be a Concentration Week on "Free Probability",
organized by Michael Anshelevich, Ken Dykema, and John Williams.
This meeting aims both to introduce younger researchers to this
fast-growing field and to showcase the latest results. Topics discussed
will include operator algebras, connections to random matrix theory,
operator-valued and fully matricial techniques, stochastic processes,
limit theorems, and free stochastic differential equations. The program
will feature lecture series by Greg Anderson, Serban Belinschi, and
Dimitri Shlyakhtenko. The homepage can be found at

http://www.math.tamu.edu/~jwilliams/Free_Probability_2014

and Dynamics" organized by David Kerr and Volodymyr Nekrashevych
(note the special dates, which fall outside the scope of the main Workshop
period). This meeting aims to provide a forum for understanding and
exploring various recent developments in groups and dynamics that revolve
around groupoids and equivalence relations. Topics will include 
topological
orbit equivalence, amenability, hyperbolicity, self-similar groups, 
entropy,
and rigidity in measurable group theory. Lectures series will be given
by Lewis Bowen and Thierry Giordano. The homepage can be found at

properties" by Oleg Reinov.


Abstract: We study some known approximation properties and introduce and
investigate several new approximation properties, closely connected with
different quasi-normed tensor products. These are the properties like the
$AP_s$ or $AP_{(s,w)}$ for $s\in (0,1],$ which give us the possibility
to identify the spaces of $s$-nuclear and $(s,w)$-nuclear operators with
the corresponding tensor products (e.g., related to Lorentz sequence
spaces). Some applications are given (in particular, we present not
difficult proofs of the trace-formulas of Grothendieck-Lidskii type for
several ideals of nuclear operators).

This is an announcement for the paper "Spaceability and optimal
estimates for summing multilinear operators" by Gustavo Araujo and
Daniel Pellegrino.


Abstract: We show that given a positive integer $m$, a real
number $p\in\left[ 2,\infty\right) $ and $1\leq s<p^{\ast}$ the
set of non--multiple $\left( r,s\right) $--summing $m$--linear
forms on $\ell_{p}\times\cdots\times\ell_{p}$ is spaceable
whenever $r<\frac{2ms}{s+2m-ms}$. This result is optimal since
for $r\geq\frac{2ms}{s+2m-ms}$ all $m$--linear forms on $\ell
_{p}\times\cdots\times\ell_{p}$ are multiple $\left( r,s\right)
$--summing.  Among other results, we improve some results from \cite{laa}
and generalize a result related to cotype (from 2010) due to Botelho,
Michels and the second named author. We also prove some new coincidence
results for the class of absolutely summing multilinear operators.

attaining their norms in the bidual" by Daniel Carando and Martin

Abstract: Under certain hypotheses on the Banach space $X$, we prove
that the set of analytic functions in $\mathcal{A}_u(X)$ (the algebra
of all holomorphic and uniformly continuous functions in the ball
of $X$) whose Aron-Berner extensions attain their norms, is dense in
$\mathcal{A}_u(X)$. The result holds also for functions with values in a
dual space or in a Banach space with the so-called property $(\beta)$. For
this, we establish first a Lindenstrauss type theorem for continuous
polynomials. We also present some counterexamples for the Bishop-Phelps
theorem in the analytic and polynomial cases where our results apply.

Abstract: We show that the analyticity of some semigroups $(T_t)_{t \geq
0}$ of contractive Fourier multipliers on $L^p$-spaces of compact abelian
groups is preserved by the tensorisation of the identity operator of
a Banach space for a large class of K-convex Banach spaces, answering
partially a conjecture of Pisier. We also give versions of this result
for some semigroups of Schur multipliers and Fourier multipliers on
noncommutative $L^p$-spaces.  Finally, we give a precise description of
semigroups of Schur multipliers to which the result of this paper can
be applied.

This is an announcement for the paper "Products of Lipschitz-free spaces
and applications" by Pedro Levit Kaufmann.


Abstract: We show that, given a Banach space $X$, the Lipschitz-free
space over $X$, denoted by $\mathcal{F}(X)$, is isomorphic to
$(\sum_{n=1}^\infty \mathcal{F}(X))_{\ell_1}$. Some applications are
presented, including a non-linear version of Pe\l czy\'ski's decomposition
method for Lipschitz-free spaces and the identification up to isomorphism
between $\mathcal{F}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ and the Lipschitz-free space over
any compact metric space which is locally bi-Lipschitz embeddable into
$\mathbb{R}^n$ and which contains a subset that is Lipschitz equivalent
to the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We also show that $\mathcal{F}(M)$
is isomorphic to $\mathcal{F}(c_0)$ for all separable metric spaces $M$
which are absolute Lipschitz retracts and contain a subset which is
Lipschitz equivalent to the unit ball of $c_0$. This class contains
all $C(K)$ spaces with $K$ infinite compact metric (Dutrieux and
Ferenczi had already proved that $\mathcal{F}(C(K))$ is isomorphic to
$\mathcal{F}(c_0)$ for those $K$ using a different method). Finally we
study Lipschitz-free spaces over certain unions and quotients of metric
spaces, extending a result by Godard.

This is an announcement for the paper "Integral representation of linear
functionals on function spaces" by Mehdi Ghasemi.


Abstract: Let $A$ be a vector space of real valued functions
on a non-empty set $X$ and $L:A\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ a linear
functional. Given a $\sigma$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$, of subsets of $X$,
we present a necessary condition for $L$ to be representable as an
integral with respect to a measure $\mu$ on $X$ such that elements
of $\mathcal{A}$ are $\mu$-measurable. This general result then is
applied to the case where $X$ carries a topological structure and $A$
is a family of continuous functions and naturally $\mathcal{A}$ is the
Borel structure of $X$. As an application, short solutions for the
full and truncated $K$-moment problem are presented. An analogue of
Riesz-Markov-Kakutani representation theorem is given where $C_{c}(X)$
is replaced with whole $C(X)$.  Then we consider the case where $A$
only consists of bounded functions and hence is equipped with $\sup$-norm.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the R-boundedness of stochastic
convolution operators" by Jan van Neerven, Mark Veraar, and Lutz Weis.


Abstract: The $R$-boundedness of certain families of vector-valued
stochastic convolution operators with scalar-valued square integrable
kernels is the key ingredient in the recent proof of stochastic maximal
$L^p$-regularity, $2<p<\infty$, for certain classes of sectorial operators
acting on spaces $X=L^q(\mu)$, $2\le q<\infty$. This paper presents a
systematic study of $R$-boundedness of such families. Our main result
generalises the afore-mentioned $R$-boundedness result to a larger class
of Banach lattices $X$ and relates it to the $\ell^{1}$-boundedness
of an associated class of deterministic convolution operators. We also
establish an intimate relationship between the $\ell^{1}$-boundedness
of these operators and the boundedness of the $X$-valued maximal
function. This analysis leads, quite surprisingly, to an example showing
that $R$-boundedness of stochastic convolution operators fails in certain
UMD Banach lattices with type $2$.

C. Cavalcante.


Abstract: In this paper, we present a characterization of support
functionals and smooth points in $L_{0}^{\Phi}$, the Musielak-Orlicz
space equipped with the Orlicz norm. As a result, criterion for the
smoothness of $L_{0}^{\Phi}$ is also obtained. Some expressions involving
the norms of functionals in $(L_{0}^{\Phi})^{*}$, the topological dual
of $L_{0}^{\Phi}$, are proved for arbitrary Musielak-Orlicz functions.

This is an announcement for the paper "Absolutely summing multilinear
operators via interpolation" by N. Albuquerque, D. Nunez-Alarcon,
J. Santos and D. M. Serrano-Rodriguez.


Abstract: We use an interpolative technique from \cite{abps} to introduce
the notion of multiple $N$-separately summing operators. Our approach
extends and unifies some recent results; for instance we recover the
best known estimates of the multilinear Bohnenblust-Hille constants
due to F. Bayart, D. Pellegrino and J.  Seoane-Sep\'ulveda. More
precisely, as a consequence of our main result, for $1\leq t<2$
and $m\in \mathbb{N}$ we prove that $$ \left( \sum_{i_{1},\dots
,i_{m}=1}^{\infty }\left\vert U\left(e_{i_{1}},\dots ,e_{i_{m}}\right)
\right\vert^{\frac{2tm}{2+(m-1)t}}\right)^{\frac{2+(m-1)t}{2tm}}
\leq \left[\prod_{j=2}^{m}\Gamma \left( 2-\frac{2-t}{jt-2t+2}\right)
^{\frac{t(j-2)+2}{2t-2jt}}\right] \left\Vert U\right\Vert $$ for
all complex $m$-linear forms $U:c_{0}\times \cdot \cdot \cdot \times
c_{0}\rightarrow \mathbb{C}$.

This is an announcement for the paper "A simplicial polytope that
maximizes the isotropic constant must be a   simplex" by Luis Rademacher.


Abstract: The isotropic constant $L_K$ is an affine-invariant measure of
the spread of a convex body $K$. For a $d$-dimensional convex body $K$,
$L_K$ can be defined by $L_K^{2d} = \det(A(K))/(\mathrm{vol}(K))^2$, where
$A(K)$ is the covariance matrix of the uniform distribution on $K$. It is
an outstanding open problem to find a tight asymptotic upper bound of the
isotropic constant as a function of the dimension. It has been conjectured
that there is a universal constant upper bound. The conjecture is known to
be true for several families of bodies, in particular, highly symmetric
bodies such as bodies having an unconditional basis. It is also known
that maximizers cannot be smooth.
  In this work we study the gap between smooth bodies and highly symmetric
bodies by showing progress towards reducing to a highly symmetric case
among non-smooth bodies. More precisely, we study the set of maximizers
among simplicial polytopes and we show that if a simplicial $d$-polytope
$K$ is a maximizer of the isotropic constant among $d$-dimensional convex
bodies, then when $K$ is put in isotropic position it is symmetric around
any hyperplane spanned by a $(d-2)$-dimensional face and the origin. By
a result of Campi, Colesanti and Gronchi, this implies that a simplicial
polytope that maximizes the isotropic constant must be a simplex.

This is an announcement for the paper "Intrinsic volumes of Sobolev balls"
by Zakhar Kabluchko and Dmitry Zaporozhets.


Abstract: A formula due to Sudakov relates the first intrinsic volume
of a convex set in a Hilbert space to the maximum of the isonormal
Gaussian process over this set. Using this formula we compute the first
intrinsic volumes of infinite-dimensional convex compact sets including
unit balls with respect to Sobolev-type seminorms and ellipsoids in the
Hilbert space. We relate the distribution of the random one-dimensional
projections of these sets to the distributions $S_1,S_2,C_1,C_2$
studied by Biane, Pitman, Yor [Bull. AMS 38 (2001)]. We show that
the $k$-th intrinsic volume of the set of all functions on $[0,1]$
which have Lipschitz constant bounded by $1$ and which vanish at
$0$ (respectively, which have vanishing integral) is given by $$
V_k = \frac{\pi^{k/2}}{\Gamma\left(\frac 32 k +1 \right)}, \text{
respectively } V_k = \frac{\pi^{(k+1)/2}}{2\Gamma\left(\frac 32 k
+\frac 32\right)}. $$ This is related to the results of Gao and Vitale
[Discrete Comput. Geom.} 26 (2001), Elect. Comm. Probab. 8 (2003)] who
considered a similar question for functions with a restriction on the
total variation instead of the Lipschitz constant.  Using the results of
Gao and Vitale we give a new proof of the formula for the expected volume
of the convex hull of the $d$-dimensional Brownian motion which is due to
Eldan [Elect. J. Probab., to appear]. Additionally, we prove an analogue
of Eldan's result for the Brownian bridge. Similarly, we show that the
results on the intrinsic volumes of the Lipschitz balls can be translated
into formulae for the expected volumes of zonoids (Aumann integrals)
generated by the Brownian motion and the Brownian bridge. Our proofs
exploit Sudakov's and Tsirelson's theorems which establish a connection
between the intrinsic volumes and the isonormal Gaussian process.

This is an announcement for the paper "Markov convexity and
nonembeddability of the Heisenberg group" by Sean Li.


Abstract: We compute the Markov convexity invariant of the continuous
Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$ to show that it is Markov 4-convex and
cannot be Markov $p$-convex for any $p < 4$. As Markov convexity is a
biLipschitz invariant and Hilbert space is Markov 2-convex, this gives
a different proof of the classical theorem of Pansu and Semmes that
the Heisenberg group does not admit a biLipschitz embedding into any
Euclidean space.
   The Markov convexity lower bound will follow from exhibiting an
explicit embedding of Laakso graphs $G_n$ into $\mathbb{H}$ that has
distortion at most $C n^{1/4} \sqrt{\log n}$. We use this to show that
if $X$ is a Markov $p$-convex metric space, then balls of the discrete
Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}(\mathbb{Z})$ of radius $n$ embed into
$X$ with distortion at least some constant multiple of $$\frac{(\log
n)^{\frac{1}{p}-\frac{1}{4}}}{\sqrt{\log \log n}}.$$ Finally, we show
somewhat unexpectedly that the optimal distortion of embeddings of binary
trees $B_m$ into the infinite dimensional Heisenberg group is on the
order of $\sqrt{\log m}$

a dual Orlicz isoperimetric inequality for the Orlicz $L_{\phi}$-dual

  Let $\IB=\prod_n M_{n}$. We also show that, for any non-nuclear von

on $\IB \otimes M$ has
cardinality equal to $2^{2^{\aleph_0}}$.

Abstract: It is well-known that in Banach spaces with finite cotype, the

addition $X$ is a Banach lattice, then these notions can be expressed as
square function estimates. It is also clear that $R$-boundedness implies
$\gamma$-boundedness.  In this note we show that all other possible
inclusions fail. Furthermore, we will prove that $R$-boundedness is stable
under taking adjoints if and only if the underlying space is $K$-convex.

general construction in which M is defined by a "big-O" condition and
M_0 is given by the corresponding "little-o" condition. The main result
characterizes the weakly compact operators T in terms of a certain norm
naturally attached to M, weaker than the M-norm. Further, we develop a
method to extract c_0-subsequences from sequences in M_0. Applications
are given to the characterizations of the weakly compact composition and
Volterra-type integral operators on weighted spaces of analytic functions,
BMOA, VMOA, and the Bloch space.

Abstract: We generalize the classical Hardy and Faber-Krahn inequalities

not necessarily vanishing on the boundary $\partial \Omega$. This reduces
the study of the Neumann Poincar\'e constant on $\Omega$ to that of the
cone and Lebesgue measures on $\partial \Omega$; these may be bounded
via the curvature of $\partial \Omega$. A second reduction is obtained to
the class of harmonic functions on $\Omega$. We also study the relation
between the Poincar\'e constant of a log-concave measure $\mu$ and
its associated K. Ball body $K_\mu$. In particular, we obtain a simple
proof of a conjecture of Kannan--Lov\'asz--Simonovits for unit-balls of
$\ell^n_p$, originally due to Sodin and Lata{\l}a--Wojtaszczyk.

rearrangement invariant spaces via interpolation" by Sergey Astashkin.


Abstract: A Banach lattice E is called p-disjointly homogeneous, 1< p<
infty, when every sequence of pairwise disjoint normalized elements in E
has a subsequence equivalent to the unit vector basis of l_p. Employing
methods from interpolation theory, we clarify which rearrangement
invariant (r.i.) spaces on [0,1] are p-disjointly homogeneous. In
particular, for every 1<p< infty and any increasing concave function
f on [0,1], which is not equivalent neither 1 nor t, there exists
a p-disjointly homogeneous r.i. space with the fundamental function
f. Moreover, in the class of all interpolation r.i. spaces with respect
to the Banach couple of Lorentz and Marcinkiewicz spaces with the same
fundamental function, dilation indices of which are non-trivial, for
every 1<p< infty, there is only a unique p-disjointly homogeneous space.

   Our theorem has several consequences; in particular, it generalizes
a theorem due to Bourgain and Todor\v{c}evi\'c on measures on Rosenthal

This is an announcement for the paper "Interpolation of nonlinear maps"
by T. Kappeler, A. Savchuk, A. Shkalikov, and P. Topalov.

Abstract: Let $(X_0, X_1)$ and $(Y_0, Y_1)$ be complex Banach couples
and assume that $X_1\subseteq X_0$ with norms satisfying $\|x\|_{X_0}
\le c\|x\|_{X_1}$ for some $c > 0$. For any $0<\theta <1$, denote by
$X_\theta = [X_0, X_1]_\theta$ and $Y_\theta = [Y_0, Y_1]_\theta$ the
complex interpolation spaces and by $B(r, X_\theta)$, $0 \le \theta \le
1,$ the open ball of radius $r>0$ in $X_\theta$, centered at zero. Then
for any analytic map $\Phi: B(r, X_0) \to Y_0+ Y_1$ such that $\Phi:
B(r, X_0)\to Y_0$ and $\Phi: B(c^{-1}r, X_1)\to Y_1$ are continuous and
bounded by constants $M_0$ and $M_1$, respectively, the restriction
of $\Phi$ to $B(c^{-\theta}r, X_\theta)$, $0 < \theta < 1,$ is shown
to be a map with values in $Y_\theta$ which is analytic and bounded by
$M_0^{1-\theta} M_1^\theta$.

Abstract: We provide complete isomorphic invariance of a class of

Bourgain, Rosenthal and Schechtman. We compute ordinal L_p-indices
for this class. We further show that the isometric index of a tree
subspace over a well founded tree is an invariance for the order of the
tree. Finally we provide a dichotomy for the subspaces of L_p with small
ordinal indices.

This is an announcement for the paper "Banach algebras generated by an
invertible isometry of an $L^p$-space" by Eusebio Gardella and Hannes
Thiel.

Abstract: We study and classify Banach algebras that are generated by
an invertible isometry of an $L^p$-space together with its inverse. We
associate to each such isometry a spectral invariant which contains
considerably more information than its spectrum as an operator. We show
that this invariant describes the isometric isomorphism type of the
Banach algebra that the isometry generates together with its inverse.
  In the case of invertible isometries with full spectrum, these Banach
algebras parametrize all completions of the group algebra
$\mathbb{C}[\mathbb{Z}]$ corresponding to unital, contractive
representations on $L^p$-spaces. The extreme cases are the algebra of
$p$-pseudofunctions on $\mathbb{Z}$, and the commutative $C^*$-algebra
$C(S^1)$. Moreover, there are uncountably many non-isometrically
isomorphic "intermediate" algebras, all of which are shown to be closed
under continuous functional calculus.

This is an announcement for the paper "Nigel Kalton and the interpolation
theory of commutators" by Michael Cwikel, Mario Milman and Richard
Rochberg.

Abstract: This is the second of a series of papers surveying some
small part of the remarkable work of our friend and colleague Nigel
Kalton. We have written it as part of a tribute to his memory. It does
not contain new results. One of the many topics in which Nigel made
very significant and profound contributions deals with commutators in
interpolation theory. It was our great privilege to work with him on one
of his many papers about this topic. Our main purpose here is to offer}
an introduction to that paper: A unified theory of commutator estimates
for a class of interpolation methods. Adv. Math. 169 (2002), no.  2,
241--312. We sketch the theory of interpolation spaces constructed
using pseudolattices which was developed in that paper and which enables
quite general formulation of commutator theorems. We seek to place the
results of that paper in the general context of preceding and subsequent
research on this topic, also indicating some applications to other fields
of analysis and possible directions for future research.

for $1<p<\infty$" by Tomasz Kania and Niels Jakob Laustsen.

Abstract: A recent result of Leung (Proceedings of the American

$\mathscr{B}(X)$ of bounded, linear operators on the Banach space
$X=\bigl(\bigoplus_{n\in\mathbb{N}}\ell_\infty^n\bigr)_{\ell_1}$

the same conclusion holds true for the Banach spaces
$X=\bigl(\bigoplus_{n\in\mathbb{N}}\ell_\infty^n\bigr)_{\ell_p}$ and
$X=\bigl(\bigoplus_{n\in\mathbb{N}}\ell_1^n\bigr)_{\ell_p}$ whenever
$p\in(1,\infty)$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Matricial Banach spaces" by
Will Grilliette.

Abstract: This work performs a study of the category of complete
matrix-normed spaces, called matricial Banach spaces. Many of the usual
constructions of Banach spaces extend in a natural way to matricial
Banach spaces, including products, direct sums, and completions. Also,
while the minimal matrix-norm on a Banach space is well-known, this work
characterizes the maximal matrix-norm on a Banach space from the work
of Effros and Ruan as a dual operator space.
  Moreover, building from the work of Blecher, Ruan, and Sinclair, the
Haagerup tensor product is merged with the direct sum to form a Haagerup
tensor algebra, which shares the analogous universal property of the
Banach tensor algebra from the work of Leptin.

Abstract: We provide a version for operators of the

complex space $C_0(L)$. In fact we prove that the space of weakly
compact operators from the complex space $C_0(L)$ into a ${\mathbb

property for operators. As a consequence, in the complex case, the
space of operators from $C_0(L)$ into $L_p (\mu)$ ($1 \le p < \infty $)
satisfies the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'{a}s property for operators.

This is an announcement for the paper "Approximation numbers of
composition operators on $H^p$ spaces of Dirichlet series" by Herve
Queffelec, and Kristian Seip.

Abstract: By a theorem of Bayart, $\varphi$ generates a bounded
composition operator on the Hardy space $\Hp$of Dirichlet series
($1\le p<\infty$) only if $\varphi(s)=c_0 s+\psi(s)$, where $c_0$ is
a nonnegative integer and $\psi$ a Dirichlet series with the following
mapping properties: $\psi$ maps the right half-plane into the half-plane
$\Real s >1/2$ if $c_0=0$ and is either identically zero or maps the
right half-plane into itself if $c_0$ is positive.  It is shown that
the $n$th approximation numbers of bounded composition operators on
$\Hp$ are bounded below by a constant times $r^n$ for some $0<r<1$ when
$c_0=0$ and bounded below by a constant times $n^{-A}$ for some $A>0$
when $c_0$ is positive. Both results are best possible. Estimates rely on
a combination of soft tools from Banach space theory ($s$-numbers, type
and ecotype of Banach spaces, Weyl inequalities, and Schauder bases) and
a certain interpolation method for $\Ht$, developed in an earlier paper,
using estimates of solutions of the $\overline{\partial}$ equation. A
transference principle from $H^p$ of the unit disc is discussed,
leading to explicit examples of compact composition operators on $\Ho$
with approximation numbers decaying at a variety of sub-exponential rates.

compactness and weak compactness.  We further establish a quantitative
version of the characterization of the weak Banach-Saks property of a
set using uniform weak convergence and $\ell_1$-spreading models. We
also study the case of the unit ball and in this case we prove a
dichotomy which is an analogue of the James distortion theorem for
$\ell_1$-spreading models.

characterizations of superreflexivity and Radon-Nikod\'ym property for
dual Banach spaces" by Mikhail I. Ostrovskii.

Abstract: Johnson and Schechtman (2009) characterized superreflexivity
in terms of finite diamond graphs. The present author characterized
the Radon-Nikod\'ym property (RNP) for dual spaces in terms of the
infinite diamond. This paper is devoted to further study of relations
between metric characterizations of superreflexivity and the RNP for
dual spaces. The main result is that finite subsets of any set $M$
whose embeddability characterizes the RNP for dual spaces, characterize
superreflexivity. It is also observed that the converse statement does
not hold, and that $M=\ell_2$ is a counterexample.

This is an announcement for the paper "The spectrum of operators on C(K)
with the Grothendieck Property and characterization of J-class operators
which are adjoints" by Amir Bahman Nasseri.


Abstract: This article deals with properties of spectra of operators
on C(K)-spaces with the Grothendieck property (e.g. l^{\infty}) and
application to so called J-class operators introduced by A. Manoussos
and G. Costakis. We will show that C(K) has the Grothendieck property
if and only if the boundary of the spectrum of every operator on C(K)
consists entirely of eigenvalues of its adjoint.  As a consequence we
will see that there does not exist invertible J-class operators on C(K)
with the Grothendieck property. In the third section we will give a
quantitative and qualitative characterization of all J-class operators
on l^{\infty} which are adjoints from operators on l^1.

This is an announcement for the paper "A brief survey of Nigel Kalton's
work on interpolation and related topics" by Michael Cwikel, Mario
Milman and Richard Rochberg.


Abstract: This is the third of a series of papers surveying some small
part of the remarkable work of our friend and colleague Nigel Kalton. We
have written it as part of a tribute to his memory. It does not contain
new results. This time, rather than concentrating on one particular paper,
we attempt to give a general overview of Nigel's many contributions to
the theory of interpolation of Banach spaces, and also, significantly,
quasi-Banach spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "On uniqueness of distribution
of a random variable whose independent copies span a subspace in L_p"
by S. Astashkin, F. Sukochev, and D. Zanin.


Abstract: Let 1\leq p<2 and let L_p=L_p[0,1] be the classical L_p-space
of all (classes of) p-integrable functions on [0,1]. It is known that a
sequence of independent copies of a mean zero random variable f from L_p
spans in L_p a subspace isomorphic to some Orlicz sequence space l_M. We
present precise connections between M and f and establish conditions
under which the distribution of a random variable f whose independent
copies span l_M in L_p is essentially unique.

Abstract: We consider the space of molecules endowed with the transpose
version of the Chevet-Saphar norm and we identify its dual space with
the space of Lipschitz strongly p-summing operators. We also extend
some old results to the category of Lipschitz mappings and we give a
factorization result of Lipschitz (p,r,s)-summing operators.

This is an announcement for the paper "Tukey classification of some
ideals in $\omega$ and the lattices of weakly compact sets in Banach
spaces" by Antonio Aviles, Grzegorz Plebanek, and Jose Rodriguez.


Abstract: We study the lattice structure of the family of weakly
compact subsets of the unit ball $B_X$ of a separable Banach space $X$,
equipped with the inclusion relation (this structure is denoted by
$\mathcal{K}(B_X)$) and also with the parametrized family of almost
inclusion relations $K \subseteq L+\epsilon B_X$, where $\epsilon>0$
(this structure is denoted by $\mathcal{AK}(B_X)$). Tukey equivalence
between partially ordered sets and a suitable extension to deal with
$\mathcal{AK}(B_X)$ are used. Assuming the axiom of analytic determinacy,
we prove that separable Banach spaces fall into four categories,
namely: $\mathcal{K}(B_X)$ is equivalent either to a singleton,
or to $\omega^\omega$, or to the family $\mathcal{K}(\mathbb{Q})$
of compact subsets of the rational numbers, or to the family
$[\mathfrak{c}]^{<\omega}$ of all finite subsets of the continuum. Also
under the axiom of analytic determinacy, a similar classification
of $\mathcal{AK}(B_X)$ is obtained. For separable Banach spaces not
containing $\ell^1$, we prove in ZFC that $\mathcal{K}(B_X) \sim
\mathcal{AK}(B_X)$ are equivalent to either $\{0\}$, $\omega^\omega$,
$\mathcal{K}(\mathbb{Q})$ or $[\mathfrak{c}]^{<\omega}$. The lattice
structure of the family of all weakly null subsequences of an
unconditional basis is also studied.

This is an announcement for the paper "Lipschitz $p$-convex and
$q$-concave maps" by Javier Alejandro Chavez-Dominguez.


Abstract: The notions of $p$-convexity and $q$-concavity are
mostly known because of their importance as a tool in the study of
isomorphic properties of Banach lattices, but they also play a role
in several results involving linear maps between Banach spaces and
Banach lattices. In this paper we introduce Lipschitz versions of these
concepts, dealing with maps between metric spaces and Banach lattices,
and start by proving nonlinear versions of two well-known factorization
theorems through $L_p$ spaces due to Maurey/Nikishin and Krivine.  We also
show that a Lipschitz map from a metric space into a Banach lattice is
Lipschitz $p$-convex if and only if its linearization is $p$-convex.
Furthermore, we elucidate why there is such a close relationship
between the linear and nonlinear concepts by proving characterizations
of Lipschitz $p$-convex and Lipschitz $q$-concave maps in terms of
factorizations through $p$-convex and $q$-concave Banach lattices,
respectively, in the spirit of the work of Raynaud and Tradacete.

This is an announcement for the paper "Stability of low-rank matrix
recovery and its connections to Banach space geometry" by Javier Alejandro
Chavez-Dominguez and Denka Kutzarova.


Abstract: There are well-known relationships between compressed sensing
and the geometry of the finite-dimensional $\ell_p$ spaces. A result
of Kashin and Temlyakov can be described as a characterization of the
stability of the recovery of sparse vectors via $\ell_1$-minimization
in terms of the Gelfand widths of certain identity mappings between
finite-dimensional $\ell_1$ and $\ell_2$ spaces, whereas a more recent
result of Foucart, Pajor, Rauhut and Ullrich proves an analogous
relationship even for $\ell_p$ spaces with $p < 1$.  In this paper we
prove what we call matrix or noncommutative versions of these results:
we characterize the stability of low-rank matrix recovery via Schatten
$p$-(quasi-)norm minimization in terms of the Gelfand widths of certain
identity mappings between finite-dimensional Schatten $p$-spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Complex interpolation and twisted
twisted Hilbert spaces" by Felix Cabello Sanchez, Jesus M. F. Castillo
and Nigel J. Kalton.


Abstract: We show that Rochberg's generalizared interpolation spaces
$\mathscr Z^{(n)}$ arising from analytic families of Banach spaces
form exact sequences $0\to \mathscr Z^{(n)} \to \mathscr Z^{(n+k)} \to
\mathscr Z^{(k)} \to 0$. We study some structural properties of those
sequences; in particular, we show that nontriviality, having strictly
singular quotient map, or having strictly cosingular embedding depend
only on the basic case $n=k=1$. If we focus on the case of Hilbert
spaces obtained from the interpolation scale of $\ell_p$ spaces, then
$\mathscr Z^{(2)}$ becomes the well-known Kalton-Peck $Z_2$ space; we
then show that $\mathscr Z^{(n)}$ is (or embeds in, or is a quotient of)
a twisted Hilbert space only if $n=1,2$, which solves a problem posed
by David Yost; and that it does not contain $\ell_2$ complemented unless
$n=1$. We construct another nontrivial twisted sum of $Z_2$ with itself
that contains $\ell_2$ complemented.

This is an announcement for the paper "$\aleph$-injective Banach spaces
and $\aleph$-projective compacta" by Antonio Aviles, Felix Cabello
Sanchez, Jesus M. F. Castillo, Manuel Gonzalez and Yolanda Moreno.


Abstract: A Banach space $E$ is said to be injective if for every Banach
space $X$ and every subspace $Y$ of $X$ every operator $t:Y\to E$ has an
extension $T:X\to E$. We say that $E$ is $\aleph$-injective (respectively,
universally $\aleph$-injective) if the preceding condition holds for
Banach spaces $X$ (respectively $Y$) with density less than a given
uncountable cardinal $\aleph$. We perform a study of $\aleph$-injective
and universally $\aleph$-injective Banach spaces which extends the basic
case where $\aleph=\aleph_1$ is the first uncountable cardinal. When
dealing with the corresponding ``isometric'' properties we arrive to our
main examples: ultraproducts and spaces of type $C(K)$. We prove that
ultraproducts built on countably incomplete $\aleph$-good ultrafilters
are $(1,\aleph)$-injective as long as they are Lindenstrauss spaces. We
characterize $(1,\aleph)$-injective $C(K)$ spaces as those in which the
compact $K$ is an $F_\aleph$-space (disjoint open subsets which are the
union of less than $\aleph$ many closed sets have disjoint closures)
and we uncover some projectiveness properties of $F_\aleph$-spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Sur quelques extensions au cadre
Banachique de la notion d'op\'erateur de Hilbert-Schmidt" by Said
Amana Abdillah, Jean Esterle, and Bernhard Hermann Haak.


Abstract: In this work we discuss several ways to extend to the context
of Banach spaces the notion of Hilbert-Schmidt operators: $p$-summing
operators, $\gamma$-summing or $\gamma$-radonifying operators, weakly
$*1$-nuclear operators and classes of operators defined via factorization
properties. We introduce the class $PS_2(E; F)$ of pre-Hilbert-Schmidt
operators as the class of all operators $u:E\to F$ such that $w\circ
u \circ v$ is Hilbert-Schmidt for every bounded operator $v: H_1\to E$
and every bounded operator $w:F\to H_2$, where $H_1$ et $H_2$ are Hilbert
spaces. Besides the trivial case where one of the spaces $E$ or $F$ is a
"Hilbert-Schmidt space", this space seems to have been described only in
the easy situation where one of the spaces $E$ or $F$ is a Hilbert space.

Abstract: We study the properties of rectangular constant $
\mu(\mathbb{X}) $ in a normed linear space $\mathbb{X}$. We prove that
$ \mu(\mathbb{X}) = 3$ iff the unit sphere contains a straight line
segment of length 2. In fact, we prove that the rectangular modulus
attains its upper bound iff the unit sphere contains a straight line
segment of length 2.
  We prove that if the dimension of the space $\mathbb{X}$ is finite then
$\mu(\mathbb{X})$ is attained. We also prove that a normed linear space
is an inner product space iff we have sup$\{\frac{1+|t|}{\|y+tx\|}$:
$x,y \in S_{\mathbb{X}}$ with $x\bot_By\} \leq \sqrt{2}$ $\forall t$
satisfying $|t|\in (3-2\sqrt{2},\sqrt{2}+1)$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Geometric duality theory of cones
in dual pairs of vector spaces" by Miek Messerschmidt.


Abstract: This paper will generalize what may be termed the ``geometric
duality theory'' of real pre-ordered Banach spaces which relates
geometric properties of a closed cone in a real Banach space, to
geometric properties of the dual cone in the dual Banach space. We show
that geometric duality theory is not restricted to real pre-ordered
Banach spaces, as is done classically, but can naturally extended to
real Banach spaces endowed with arbitrary collections of closed cones.
  We define geometric notions of normality, conormality, additivity and
coadditivity for members of dual pairs of real vector spaces as certain
possible interactions between two cones and two convex convex sets
containing zero. We show that, thus defined, these notions are dual
to each other under certain conditions, i.e., for a dual pair of real
vector spaces $(Y,Z)$, the space $Y$ is normal (additive) if and only if
its dual $Z$ is conormal (coadditive) and vice versa. These results are
set up in a manner so as to provide a framework to prove results in the
geometric duality theory of cones in real Banach spaces. As an example
of using this framework, we generalize classical duality results for
real Banach spaces pre-ordered by a single closed cone, to real Banach
spaces endowed with an arbitrary collections of closed cones.
  As an application, we analyze some of the geometric properties of
naturally occurring cones in C*-algebras and their duals.

This is an announcement for the paper "On smoothness of quasihyperbolic
balls" by Riku Klen, Antti Rasila, and Jarno Talponen.


Abstract: We investigate properties of quasihyperbolic balls and
geodesics in Euclidean and Banach spaces. Our main result is that in
uniformly smooth Banach spaces a quasihyperbolic ball of a convex domain
is $C^1$-smooth. The question about the smoothness of quasihyperbolic
balls is old, originating back to the discussions of F.W. Gehring and
M. Vuorinen in 1970's. To our belief, the result is new also in the
Euclidean setting. We also address some other issues involving the
smoothness of quasihyperbolic balls.
  We introduce an interesting application of quasihyperbolic metrics to
renormings of Banach spaces. To provide a useful tool for this approach
we turn our attention to the variational stability of quasihyperbolic
geodesics.  Several examples and illustrations are provided.

This is an announcement for the paper "Consequences of the
Marcus/Spielman/Stivastava solution to the Kadison-Singer Problem"
by Peter G. Casazza.


Abstract: It is known that the famous, intractible 1959 Kadison-Singer
problem in $C^{*}$-algebras is equivalent to fundamental unsolved problems
in a dozen areas of research in pure mathematics, applied mathematics and
Engineering. The recent surprising solution to this problem by Marcus,
Spielman and Srivastava was a significant achievement and a significant
advance for all these areas of research.
   We will look at many of the known equivalent forms of the Kadison-Singer
Problem and see what are the best new theorems available in each
area of research as a consequence of the work of Marcus, Spielman and
Srivastave. In the cases where {\it constants} are important for the
theorem, we will give the best constants available in terms of a {\it
generic constant} taken from \cite{MSS}. Thus, if better constants
eventually become available, it will be simple to adapt these new
constants to the theorems.

Abstract: We study the properties of strongly orthonormal Hamel basis in
the sense of Birkhoff-James in a finite dimensional real normed linear
space that are analogous to the properties of orthonormal basis in
an inner product space. We relate the notion of strongly orthonormal
Hamel basis in the sense of Birkhoff-James with the notions of best
approximation and best coapproximation in a finite dimensional real normed
linear space. We prove that the existence of best coapproximation to any
element of the normed linear space out of any one dimensional subspace
and its coincidence with the best approximation to that element out of
that subspace characterises a real inner product space of dimension( >
2). Finally we conjecture that a finite dimensional real smooth normed
space of dimension ($>2$) is an inner product space iff given any element
on the unit sphere there exists a strongly orthonormal Hamel basis in
the sense of Birkhoff-James containing that element.

Abstract: We consider various notions of equivalence in the space

rank operators, modulo Schatten $p$-classes, and modulo compact
operators. Using Hjorth's theory of turbulence, the latter two are
shown to be not classifiable by countable structures, while the first
cannot be reduced to the orbit equivalence relation of any Polish group
action. The results for modulo finite rank and modulo compact operators
are also shown for the restrictions of these equivalence relations to the
space of projection operators. Families of non-classifiable equivalence
relations on sequence spaces are described and utilized in these results.

continuous operators, and are distinct for all choices $1\leq p\leq\infty$
and, when $p\neq 1$, for all choices $\xi\neq\omega_1$. For the case
$\xi=1$, there exists an ideal norm $\|\cdot\|_{(p,1)}$ on the class
$\mathcal{WD}_{\ell_p}^{(\infty,1)}$ under which it forms a Banach ideal.

has octahedral norm whenever $X^*$ and $Y$ have octahedral norm. As a
consequence the space of operators $L(\ell_1 ,X)$ has octahedral norm if,
and only if, $X$ has octahedral norm.  These results also allows us to
get the stability of strong diameter 2 property for projective tensor
products of Banach spaces, which is an improvement of the known results
about the size of nonempty relatively weakly open subsets in the unit
ball of the projective tensor product of Banach spaces.

Abstract: For pointed compact metric spaces $(X,d)$, we address

$\mathrm{Lip}_0(X,d)$ is isometrically isomorphic to the bidual of the
space of little Lipschitz functions $\mathrm{lip}_0(X,d)$, and show that
this is the case whenever the closed unit ball of $\mathrm{lip}_0(X,d)$ is
dense in the closed unit ball of $\mathrm{Lip}_0(X,d)$ with respect to the
topology of pointwise convergence.  Then we apply our density criterion
to prove in an alternate way the real version of a classical result which
asserts that $\mathrm{Lip}_0(X,d^\alpha)$ is isometrically isomorphic
to $\mathrm{lip}_0(X,d^\alpha)^{**}$ for any $\alpha$ in $(0,1)$.

Abstract: For specific well founded countably branching

continuous functions defined on $\mathcal{T}$ and in the case in which
$\mathcal{T}$ has finite height, those two algebras are homomorphic. We
conclude that for every countable compact metric space $K$ with finite
Cantor-Bendixson index there exists a $\mathcal{L}_\infty$ space whose
Calkin algebra is isomorphic, as a Banach algebra, to $C(K)$.

Abstract: For any closed subset $F$ of $[1,\infty]$ which is either finite
or consists of the elements of an increasing sequence and its limit, a
reflexive Banach space $X$ with a 1-unconditional basis is constructed
so that in each block subspace $Y$ of $X$, $\ell_p$ is finitely block
represented in $Y$ if and only if $p \in F$. In particular, this solves
the question as to whether the stabilized Krivine set for a Banach space
had to be connected. We also prove that for every infinite dimensional
subspace $Y$ of $X$ there is a dense subset $G$ of $F$ such that the
spreading models admitted by $Y$ are exactly the $\ell_p$ for $p\in G$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Lipschitz tensor product" by
M. G. Cabrera-Padilla, J. A. Chavez-Dominguez, A. Jimenez-Vargas, and
Moises Villegas-Vallecillos.


Abstract: Inspired by ideas of R. Schatten in his celebrated monograph
on a theory of cross-spaces, we introduce the notion of a Lipschitz
tensor product X\boxtimes E of a pointed metric space and a Banach space
E as a certain linear subspace of the algebraic dual of Lipo(X,E^*). We
prove that <Lipo(X,E^*),X\boxtimes E> forms a dual pair. We prove that
X\boxtimes E is linearly isomorphic to the linear space of all finite-rank
continuous linear operators from (X^#,T) into E, where X^# denotes the
space Lipo(X,K) and T is the topology of pointwise convergence of X^#. The
concept of Lipschitz tensor product of elements of X^# and E^* yields the
space X^#\boxast E^* as a certain linear subspace of the algebraic dual
of X\boxtimes E. To ensure the good behavior of a norm on X\boxtimes E
with respect to the Lipschitz tensor product of Lipschitz functionals
(mappings) and bounded linear functionals (operators), the concept of
dualizable (respectively, uniform) Lipschitz cross-norm on X\boxtimes
E is defined. We show that the Lipschitz injective norm epsilon,
the Lipschitz projective norm pi and the Lipschitz p-nuclear norm d_p
(1<=p<=infty) are uniform dualizable Lipschitz cross-norms on X\boxtimes
E. In fact, epsilon is the least dualizable Lipschitz cross-norm and
pi is the greatest Lipschitz cross-norm on X\boxtimes E. Moreover,
dualizable Lipschitz cross-norms alpha on X\boxtimes E are characterized
by satisfying the relation epsilon<=alpha<=pi.  In addition, the Lipschitz
injective (projective) norm on X\boxtimes E can be identified with the
injective (respectively, projective) tensor norm on the Banach-space
tensor product between the Lipschitz-free space over X and E.  In terms
of the space X^#\boxast E^*, we describe the spaces of Lipschitz compact
(finite-rank, approximable) operators from X to E^$.

This is an announcement for the paper "The product duality formula in
Banach space theory" by Enrique A. Sanchez-Perez.


Abstract: In this paper we analyze a definition of product of Banach
spaces that is naturally associated by duality with an abstract notion
of space of multiplication operators. This dual relation allows to
understand several constructions coming from different fields of the
functional analysis, that can be seen as instances of the abstract one
when a particular product is considered. Some relevant examples and
applications are shown.

Abstract: We present a new proof of Zippin's Embedding Theorem, that

This is an announcement for the paper "On some geometric properties of
generalized Musielak-Orlicz sequence space and corresponding operator
ideals" by Amit Maji and P. D. Srivastava.


Abstract: Let $\bold{\Phi}=(\phi_n)$ be a Musielak-Orlicz function, $X$
be a real Banach space and $A$ be any infinite matrix. In this paper,
a generalized vector-valued Musielak-Orlicz sequence space $l_{\bold
{\Phi}}^{A}(X)$ is introduced. It is shown that the space is complete
normed linear space under certain conditions on the matrix $A$. It
is also shown that $l_{\bold{\Phi}}^{A}(X)$ is a $\sigma$- Dedikind
complete whenever $X$ is so.  We have discussed some geometric properties,
namely, uniformly monotone, uniform Opial property for this space. Using
the sequence of $s$-number (in the sense of Pietsch), the operators
of $s$-type $l_{\bold{\Phi}}^{A}$ and operator ideals under certain
conditions on the matrix $A$ are discussed.

This is an announcement for the paper "Representations of \'{e}tale
groupoids on $L^p$-spaces" by Eusebio Gardella and Martino Lupini.


Abstract: For $p\in (1,\infty)$, we study representations of \'{e}tale
groupoids on $L^{p}$-spaces. Our main result is a generalization of
Renault's disintegration theorem for representations of \'{e}tale
groupoids on Hilbert spaces. We establish a correspondence
between $L^{p}$-representations of an \'{e}tale groupoid $G$,
contractive $L^{p}$-representations of $C_{c}(G)$, and tight regular
$L^{p}$-representations of any countable inverse semigroup of open
slices of $G$ that is a basis for the topology of $G$. We define analogs
$F^{p}(G)$ and $F_{\mathrm{red}}^{p}(G)$ of the full and reduced groupoid
C*-algebras using representations on $L^{p}$-spaces. As a consequence
of our main result, we deduce that every contractive representation
of $F^{p}(G)$ or $F_{\mathrm{red}}^{p}(G)$ is automatically completely
contractive. Examples of our construction include the following natural
families of Banach algebras: discrete group $L^{p}$-operator algebras,
the analogs of Cuntz algebras on $L^{p}$-spaces, and the analogs of
AF-algebras on $L^{p} $-spaces. Our results yield new information
about these objects: their matricially normed structure is uniquely
determined. More generally, groupoid $L^{p}$-operator algebras
provide analogs of several families of classical C*-algebras, such as
Cuntz-Krieger C*-algebras, tiling C*-algebras, and graph C*-algebras.

spaces of higher order" by Kevin Beanland, Ryan Causey, and Pavlos

Abstract: We study an ordinal rank on the class of Banach spaces with
bases that quantifies the distortion of the norm of a given Banach
space. The rank $AD(\cdot)$, introduced by P. Dodos, uses the transfinite
Schreier familes and has the property that $AD(X) < \omega_1$ if and
only if $X$ is arbitrarily distortable. We prove several properties
of this rank as well as some new results concerning higher order
$\ell_1$ spreading models. We also compute this rank for for several
Banach spaces. In particular, it is shown that class of Banach spaces
$\mathfrak{X}^{\omega^\xi}_{0,1}$ , which each admit $\ell_1$ and $c_0$
spreading models hereditarily, and were introduced by S.A. Argyros, the
first and third author, satisfy $AD(\mathfrak{X}^{\omega^\xi}_{0,1}) =
\omega^\xi + 1$. This answers some questions of Dodos.

This is an announcement for the paper "Metric ${X}_p$ inequalities"
by Assaf Naor and Gideon Schechtman.


Abstract: We show that if $m,n\in \mathbb{N}$ and $k\in \{1,\ldots,
n\}$ satisfy $m\ge \frac{n^{3/2}}{\sqrt{k}}$ then for every
$p\in [2,\infty)$ and $f:\mathbb{Z}_{4m}^n\to \mathbb{R}$ we have
\begin{equation} \frac{1}{\binom{n}{k}}\sum_{\substack{S\subseteq
\{1,\ldots,n\}\\|S|= k}}\frac{\mathbb{E}\left[\big|f\big(x+2m\sum_{j\in
S} \varepsilon_j e_j\big)-f(x)\big|^p\right]}{m^p}\lesssim_p
\frac{k}{n}\sum_{j=1}^n\mathbb{E}\big[\left|
f(x+e_j)-f(x)\right|^p\big]+\left(\frac{k}{n}\right)^{\frac{p}{2}}
\mathbb{E}\big[\left|f\left(x+ \varepsilon{e}\right)-f(x)\right|^p\big],
\end{equation} where the expectation is with respect to
$(x,\varepsilon)\in \mathbb{Z}_{4m}^n\times \{-1,1\}^n$ chosen
uniformly at random and $e_1,\ldots e_n$ is the standard basis of
$\mathbb{Z}_{4m}^n$. The above inequality is a nonlinear extension of
a linear inequality for Rademacher sums that was proved by Johnson,
Maurey, Schechtman and Tzafriri in 1979. We show that for the above
statement to hold true it is necessary that $m$ tends to infinity with
$n$.  The formulation (and proof) of the above inequality completes
the long-standing search for bi-Lipschitz invariants that serve as an
obstruction to the nonembeddability of $L_p$ spaces into each other,
the previously understood cases of which were metric notions of type and
cotype, which fail to certify the nonembeddability of $L_q$ into $L_p$
when $2<q<p$. Among the consequences of the above inequality are new
quantitative restrictions on the bi-Lipschitz embeddability into $L_p$
of snowflakes of $L_q$ and integer grids in $\ell_q^n$, for $2<q<p$. As a
byproduct of our investigations, we also obtain results on the geometry
of the Schatten $p$ trace class $S_p$ that are new even in the linear
setting.

This is an announcement for the paper "Sharp nonasymptotic bounds on the
norm of random matrices with   independent entries" by Afonso S. Bandeira

Abstract: We obtain nonasymptotic bounds on the spectral norm of
random matrices with independent entries that improve significantly
on earlier results. If $X$ is the $n\times n$ symmetric matrix with
$X_{ij}\sim N(0,b_{ij}^2)$, we show that $$\mathbf{E}\|X\|\lesssim
\max_i\sqrt{\sum_{j}b_{ij}^2} +\max_{ij}|b_{ij}|\sqrt{\log n}. $$ This
bound is optimal in the sense that a matching lower bound holds under mild
assumptions, and the constants are sufficiently sharp that we can often
capture the precise edge of the spectrum.  Analogous results are obtained
for rectangular matrices and for more general subgaussian or heavy-tailed
distributions of the entries, and we derive tail bounds in addition to
bounds on the expected norm. The proofs are based on a combination of
the moment method and geometric functional analysis techniques.  As an
application, we show that our bounds immediately yield the correct phase
transition behavior of the spectral edge of random band matrices and of
sparse Wigner matrices. We also recover a result of Seginer on the norm
of Rademacher matrices.

This is an announcement for the paper "Interpolation of Fredholm
operators" by I. Asekritova, N. Kruglyak and M. Mastylo.


Abstract: We prove novel results on interpolation of Fredholm operators
including an abstract factorization theorem. The main result of this
paper provides sufficient conditions on the parameters $\theta \in (0,1)$
and $q\in \lbrack 1,\infty ]$ under which an operator $A$ is a Fredholm
operator from the real interpolation space $(X_{0},X_{1})_{\theta
,q}$ to $(Y_{0},Y_{1})_{\theta ,q} $ for a given operator $A\colon
(X_{0},X_{1})\rightarrow (Y_{0},Y_{1})$ between compatible pairs of Banach
spaces such that its restrictions to the endpoint spaces are Fredholm
operators. These conditions are expressed in terms of the corresponding
indices generated by the $K$-functional of elements from the kernel of the
operator $A$ in the interpolation sum $X_{0}+X_{1}$. If in addition $q\in
\lbrack 1,\infty )$ and $A$ is invertible operator on endpoint spaces,
then these conditions are also necessary. We apply these results to
obtain and present an affirmative solution of the famous Lions-Magenes
problem on the real interpolation of closed subspaces. We also discuss
some applications to the spectral theory of operators as well as to
perturbation of the Hardy operator by identity on weighted $L_{p}$-spaces.

Abstract: We investigate questions of maximal symmetry in Banach spaces

groups with an essentially unique invariant complemented subspace. This is
subsequently combined with rigidity results for the unitary representation
of ${\rm Aut}(T)$ on $\ell_2(T)$, where $T$ is the countably infinite
regular tree, to describe the possible bounded subgroups of ${\rm
GL}(\mathcal H)$ extending a well-known non-unitarisable representation
of $\mathbb F_\infty$.
   As a related result, we also show that a transitive norm on a separable
Banach space must be strictly convex.

Abstract: These notes are formal. Here, in this abstract, not in the

by Aleksander Pe{\l}czy\'nski. BUT: Anyhow, a new notion of an O-frame
for an operator is introduced. For the operators in separable spaces,
it is shown that a operator has an O-frame iff it has the BAP iff it
can be factored through a Banach space with a basis. Applications are
given. However, looking around, I'd say that, e.g., a notion of a Banach
frame (and also O-frame) was implicitely introduced by great Aleksander
Pe{\l}czy\'nski.

This is an announcement for the paper "Bishop-Phelps-Bolloba's theorem
on bounded closed convex sets" by Dong Hoon Cho and Yun Sung Choi.


Abstract: This paper deals with the \emph{Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as
property} (\emph{BPBp} for short) on bounded closed convex subsets of a
Banach space $X$, not just on its closed unit ball $B_X$. We firstly prove
that the \emph{BPBp} holds for bounded linear functionals on arbitrary
bounded closed convex subsets of a real Banach space. We show that for
all finite dimensional Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ the pair $(X,Y)$ has the
\emph{BPBp} on every bounded closed convex subset $D$ of $X$, and also
that for a Banach space $Y$ with property $(\beta )$ the pair $(X,Y)$
has the \emph{BPBp} on every bounded closed absolutely convex subset $D$
of an arbitrary Banach space $X$. For a bounded closed absorbing convex
subset $D$ of $X$ with positive modulus convexity we get that the pair
$(X,Y)$ has the \emph{BPBp} on $D$ for every Banach space $Y$. We further
obtain that for an Asplund space $X$ and for a locally compact Hausdorff
$L$, the pair $(X, C_0(L))$ has the \emph{BPBp} on every bounded closed
absolutely convex subset $D$ of $X$. Finally we study the stability of
the \emph{BPBp} on a bounded closed convex set for the $\ell_1$-sum or
$\ell_{\infty}$-sum of a family of Banach spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "The algebra of bounded linear
operators on $\ell_p\oplus\ell_q$ has infinitely many closed ideals"
by Thomas Schlumprecht and Andras Zsak.


Abstract: We prove that in the reflexive range $1<p<q<\infty$ the algebra
of all bounded linear operators on $\ell_p\oplus\ell_q$ has infinitely
many closed ideals. This solves a problem raised by A. Pietsch in his book
`Operator ideals'.

range and kernel complementarity" by Dimosthenis Drivaliaris and Nikos
Yannakakis.


Abstract: We show that if the angle of a bounded linear operator on a
Banach space with closed range is less than $\pi$, then its range and
kernel are complementary.  We also show that in finite dimensions and
up to rotations this simple geometric property characterizes operators
for which range and kernel are complementary. For operators on a Hilbert
space we present a sufficient condition, involving the distance of the
boundary of the numerical range from the origin, for the range and the
kernel to be complementary.

their relatives" by Kati Ain and Eve Oja.


Abstract: Let $1\leq p < \infty$ and $1\leq r \leq p^\ast$, where $p^\ast$
is the conjugate index of $p$. We prove an omnibus theorem, which provides
numerous equivalences for a sequence $(x_n)$ in a Banach space $X$ to
be a $(p,r)$-null sequence. One of them is that $(x_n)$ is $(p,r)$-null
if and only if $(x_n)$ is null and relatively $(p,r)$-compact. This
equivalence is known in the ''limit'' case when $r=p^\ast$, the case of
the $p$-null sequence and $p$-compactness.  Our approach is more direct
and easier than those applied for the proof of the latter result. We
apply it also to characterize the unconditional and weak versions of
$(p,r)$-null sequences.

This is an announcement for the paper "Splittings of extensions of the
algebra of bounded operators on a space" by Niels Jakob Laustsen and
Richard Skillicorn.


Abstract: We show that there exist a Banach space E, a unital Banach
algebra A with Jacobson radical rad A, and a continuous, surjective
algebra homomorphism f from A onto the Banach algebra B(E) of bounded
operators on E such that ker f = rad A and the corresponding extension
{0} -> rad A -> A -> B(E) -> {0} is singular (in the sense that rad A
has trivial multiplication) and splits algebraically, but it does not
split strongly. This conclusion complements the work of Bade, Dales, and
Lykova (Mem. Amer. Math. Soc. 1999). The Banach space E that we use is
a quotient of the l_2-direct sum of an infinite sequence of James-type
quasi-reflexive Banach spaces; it was originally introduced by Read
(J. London Math. Soc. 1989).

This is an announcement for the paper "Estimating the number of
eigenvalues of linear operators on Banach spaces" by Michael Demuth,
Franz Hanauska, Marcel Hansmann, and Guy Katriel.


Abstract: Let $L_0$ be a bounded operator on a Banach space, and consider
a perturbation $L=L_0+K$, where $K$ is compact. This work is concerned
with obtaining bounds on the number of eigenvalues of $L$ in subsets
of the complement of the essential spectrum of $L_0$, in terms of
the approximation numbers of the perturbing operator $K$. Our results
can be considered as wide generalizations of classical results on the
distribution of eigenvalues of compact operators, which correspond to the
case $L_0=0$. They also extend previous results on operators in Hilbert
space. Our method employs complex analysis and a new finite-dimensional
reduction, allowing us to avoid using the existing theory of determinants
in Banach spaces, which would require strong restrictions on $K$. Several
open questions regarding the sharpness of our results are raised,
and an example is constructed showing that there are some essential
differences in the possible distribution of eigenvalues of operators in
general Banach spaces, compared to the Hilbert space case.

This is an announcement for the paper "Spectral and asymptotic properties
of contractive semigroups on non-Hilbert spaces" by Jochen Gl\"uck.


Abstract: We analyse $C_0$-semigroups of contractive operators on
real-valued $L^p$-spaces for $p \not= 2$ and on other classes of
non-Hilbert spaces. We show that, under some regularity assumptions on
the semigroup, the geometry of the unit ball of those spaces forces
the semigroup's generator to have only trivial (point) spectrum
on the imaginary axis. This has interesting consequences for the
asymptotic behaviour as $t \to \infty$. For example, we can show that
a contractive and eventually norm continuous $C_0$-semigroup on a
real-valued $L^p$-space automatically converges strongly if $p \not\in
\{1,2,\infty\}$.

Abstract: In this paper we prove different functional inequalities

bodies. The original inequalities provide an optimal relation between the
volume of a convex body and the volume of several symmetrizations of the
body, such as, its difference body. We characterize the equality cases
in all these inequalities. Our method is based on the extension of the
notion of a convolution body of two convex sets to any pair of log-concave
functions and the study of some geometrical properties of these new sets.

spaces. Moreover we show that $\mathbb{NG}$ is isometrically isomorphic
to the Gurarij Banach space.  Therefore $\mathbb{NG}$ can be thought as
a canonical operator space structure on the Gurarij Banach space.

problem for dual properties of the above ones, as having octahedral,
weakly octahedral or 2-rough norm.

of interpolation preserves the compactness of operators. This problem
is now 51 years old and still lacks a complete solution. We also survey
some other partial solutions of this problem, obtained before and after
the above mentioned joint work. We plan a technical sequel to this paper,
which may contain some small new results and will probably conclude this
series devoted to Nigel's research.

This is an announcement for the paper "Singular twisted sums generated
by complex interpolation" by Jesus M. F. Castillo, Valentin Ferenczi
and Manuel Gonzalez.


Abstract: We present new methods to obtain singular twisted sums
$X\oplus_\Omega X$ (i.e., exact sequences $0\to X\to X\oplus_\Omega X \to
X\to 0$ in which the quotient map is strictly singular), in which $X$
is the interpolation space arising from a complex interpolation scheme
and $\Omega$ is the induced centralizer.
   Although our methods are quite general, in our applications we
are mainly concerned with the choice of $X$ as either a Hilbert space,
or Ferenczi's uniformly convex Hereditarily Indecomposable space. In
the first case, we construct new singular twisted Hilbert spaces,
including the only known example so far: the Kalton-Peck space $Z_2$. In
the second case we obtain the first example of an H.I. twisted sum of
an H.I. space. We then use Rochberg's description of iterated twisted
sums to show that there is a sequence $\mathcal F_n$ of H.I. spaces
so that $\mathcal F_{m+n}$ is a singular twisted sum of $\mathcal F_m$
and $\mathcal F_n$, while for $l>n$ the direct sum $\mathcal F_n \oplus
\mathcal F_{l+m}$ is a nontrivial twisted sum of $\mathcal F_l$ and
$\mathcal F_{m+n}$.
   We also introduce and study the notion of disjoint singular twisted
sum of K\"othe function spaces and construct several examples involving
reflexive $p$-convex K\"othe function spaces, which include the function
version of the Kalton-Peck space $Z_2$.

dual of a Banach space, Bollob\'as proved the nowadays known as the
Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as theorem, which allows to approximate at the same
time a functional and a vector in which it almost attains the norm. Very
recently, two Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as moduli of a Banach space have been
introduced [J.  Math. Anal. Appl. 412 (2014), 697--719] to measure, for
a given Banach space, what is the best possible Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as
theorem in this space. In this paper we present two refinements of the
results of that paper. On the one hand, we get a sharp general estimation
of the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as modulus as a function of the norms of
the point and the functional, and we also calculate it in some examples,
including Hilbert spaces. On the other hand, we relate the modulus
of uniform non-squareness with the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as modulus
obtaining, in particular, a simpler and quantitative proof of the fact
that a uniformly non-square Banach space cannot have the maximum value
of the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as modulus.

This is an announcement for the paper "The weak bounded approximation
property for $\mathcal A$" by Silvia Lassalle and Pablo Turco.


Abstract: Fixed a Banach operator ideal $\mathcal A$, we introduce and
investigate the weak bounded approximation property for $\mathcal A$,
which is strictly weaker than the bounded approximation property for
$\mathcal A$ of Lima, Lima and Oja (2010). We relate the weak BAP for
$\mathcal A$ with approximation properties given by tensor norms and show
that the metric approximation property of order $p$ of Saphar is the
weak BAP for the ideal of $p'$-summing operators, $1<p<\infty$, $\frac
1p + \frac 1{p'}=1$. Under this framework, we address the question of
approximation properties passing from $X'$ to $X$ or from $X''$ to $X'$.

to the whole space if and only if it is $1$-complemented. Moreover,
we obtain the classification of those hyperplanes for which their duals
are isometric to $\ell_{1}$ and we give a complete description of the
preduals of $\ell_{1}$ under the assumption that the standard basis of
$\ell_{1}$ is weak$^{*}$-convergent.

BMO is a primary Banach space. Bourgain's localization method provides
the conceptual framework of our proof. It consists in replacing the
factorization problem on the non--separable Banach space bi--parameter BMO
by its localized, finite dimensional counterpart. We solve the resulting
finite dimensional factorization problems by combinatorics of colored
dyadic rectangles.

This is an announcement for the paper "Lecture notes on complex
interpolation of compactness" by Michael Cwikel and Richard Rochberg.


Abstract:
  Suppose that the linear operator $T$ maps $X_0$ compactly to $Y_0$
and also maps $X_1$ boundedly to $Y_1$. We deal once again with the
51 year old question of whether $T$ also always maps the complex
interpolation space $[X_0,X_1]_\theta$ compactly to $[Y_0,Y_1]_\theta$.
  This is a short preliminary version of our promised technical sequel
to our earlier paper arXiv:1410.4527 on this topic.
  It contains the following two small new partial results: (i) The answer
to the above question is yes, in the particular case where $Y_0$ is
a UMD-space.
  (ii) The answer to the above question is yes for given spaces $X_0$,
$X_1$, $Y_0$ and $Y_1$ if the answer to the &quot;dualized&quot; or
&quot;adjoint&quot; version of the question for the duals of these
particular spaces is yes.
  In fact we deduce (i) from (ii) and from an earlier result obtained
jointly by one of us with Nigel Kalton.
  It is remarked that a proof of a natural converse of (ii) would
answer the general form of this question completely.

functions by differentiable convex functions on Banach spaces" by Daniel

Abstract:
  We show that if $X$ is a Banach space whose dual $X^{*}$ has an
equivalent locally uniformly rotund (LUR) norm, then for every open convex
$U\subseteq X$, for every $\varepsilon >0$, and for every continuous and
convex function $f:U \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ (not necessarily bounded on
bounded sets) there exists a convex function $g:X \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$
of class $C^1(U)$ such that $f-\varepsilon\leq g\leq f$ on $U.$ We
also show how the problem of global approximation of continuous (not
necessarily bounded on bounded sets) and convex functions by $C^k$ smooth
convex functions can be reduced to the problem of global approximation
of Lipschitz convex functions by $C^k$ smooth convex functions.

This is an announcement for the paper "The $H^{\infty}$--functional
calculus and square function estimates" by Nigel Kalton and Lutz Weis.


Abstract:
  Using notions from the geometry of Banach spaces we introduce square
functions $\gamma(\Omega,X)$ for functions with values in an arbitrary
Banach space $X$. We show that they have very convenient function space
properties comparable to the Bochner norm of $L_2(\Omega,H)$ for a Hilbert
space $H$. In particular all bounded operators $T$ on $H$ can be extended
to $\gamma(\Omega,X)$ for all Banach spaces $X$. Our main applications
are characterizations of the $H^{\infty}$--calculus that extend known
results for $L_p$--spaces from \cite{CowlingDoustMcIntoshYagi}. With these
square function estimates we show, e.~g., that a $c_0$--group of operators
$T_s$ on a Banach space with finite cotype has an $H^{\infty}$--calculus
on a strip if and only if $e^{-a|s|}T_s$ is $R$--bounded for some $a >
0$. Similarly, a sectorial operator $A$ has an $H^{\infty}$--calculus on
a sector if and only if $A$ has $R$--bounded imaginary powers. We also
consider vector valued Paley--Littlewood $g$--functions on $UMD$--spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Strictly convex space : Strong
orthogonality and conjugate diameters" by Debmalya Sain, Kallol Paul
and Kanhaiya Jha.


Abstract:
   In a normed linear space X an element x is said to be orthogonal
to another element y in the sense of Birkhoff-James, written as $ x
\perp_{B}y, $ iff $ \| x \| \leq \| x + \lambda y \| $ for all scalars $
\lambda.$ We prove that a normed linear space X is strictly convex iff
for any two elements x, y of the unit sphere $ S_X$, $ x \perp_{B}y $
implies $ \| x + \lambda y \| > 1~ \forall~ \lambda \neq 0. $ We apply
this result to find a necessary and sufficient condition for a Hamel basis
to be a strongly orthonormal Hamel basis in the sense of Birkhoff-James
in a finite dimensional real strictly convex space X. Applying the result
we give an estimation for lower bounds of $ \| tx+(1-t)y\|, t \in [0,1]
$ and $ \| y + \lambda x \|, ~\forall ~\lambda $ for all elements $
x,y \in S_X $ with $ x \perp_B y. $ We find a necessary and sufficient
condition for the existence of conjugate diameters through the points $
e_1,e_2 \in ~S_X $ in a real strictly convex space of dimension 2. The
concept of generalized conjuagte diameters is then developed for a real
strictly convex smooth space of finite dimension.

Lebesgue space with above property which does not possess

ultraproducts of Banach spaces $(X_i)_{\mathfrak U}$. We show that, under
certain hypotheses, there is a strong relation between this problem and
the same problem for the spaces $X_i$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Hyperplanes of finite-dimensional
normed spaces with the maximal   relative projection constant" by
Tomasz Kobos.


Abstract:
  The \emph{relative projection constant} $\lambda(Y, X)$ of normed spaces
$Y \subset X$ is defined as $\lambda(Y, X) = \inf \{ ||P|| : P \in
\mathcal{P}(X, Y) \}$, where $\mathcal{P}(X, Y)$ denotes the set of
all continuous projections from $X$ onto $Y$. By the well-known result
of Bohnenblust for every $n$-dimensional normed space $X$ and its
subspace $Y$ of codimension $1$ the inequality $\lambda(Y, X) \leq 2 -
\frac{2}{n}$ holds. The main goal of the paper is to study the equality
case in the theorem of Bohnenblust. We establish an equivalent condition
for the equality $\lambda(Y, X) = 2 - \frac{2}{n}$ and present several
applications. We prove that every three-dimensional space has a subspace
with the projection constant less than $\frac{4}{3} - 0.0007$. This
gives a non-trivial upper bound in the problem posed by Bosznay and
Garay.  In the general case, we give an upper bound for the number
of $(n-1)$-dimensional subspaces with the maximal relative projection
constant in terms of the facets of the unit ball of $X$. As a consequence,
every $n$-dimensional normed space $X$ has an $(n-1)$-dimensional
subspace $Y$ with $\lambda(Y, X) < 2-\frac{2}{n}$. This contrasts with
the seperable case in which it is possible that every hyperplane has a
maximal possible projection constant.

This is an announcement for the paper "Three observations regarding
Schatten p classes" by Gideon Schechtman.


Abstract:
   The paper contains three results, the common feature of which is
that they deal with the Schatten $p$ class. The first is a presentation of
a new complemented subspace of $C_p$ in the reflexive range (and $p\not=
2$). This construction answers a question of Arazy and Lindestrauss from
1975. The second result relates to tight embeddings of finite dimensional
subspaces of $C_p$ in $C_p^n$ with small $n$ and shows that $\ell_p^k$
nicely embeds into $C_p^n$ only if $n$ is at least proportional to $k$
(and then of course the dimension of $C_p^n$ is at least of order
$k^2$). The third result concerns single element of $C_p^n$ and shows
that for $p>2$ any $n\times n$ matrix of $C_p$ norm one and zero diagonal
admits, for every $\varepsilon>0$, a $k$-paving of $C_p$ norm at most
$\varepsilon$ with $k$ depending on $\varepsilon$ and $p$ only.

Duke University Press partners with the Tusi Mathematical Research Group
to publish the Annals of Functional Analysis (AFA) and the Banach
Journal of Mathematical Analysis (BJMA). In 2015, Duke University Press
will begin publishing both journals. 

AFA, started in 2010, and BJMA, started in 2007, are online-only
journals included in the prestigious "Reference List Journals" covered
by MathSciNet and indexed by Zentralblatt Math, Scopus and Thomson
Reuters (ISI). 

With the start of their 2015 volumes under the guidance of strong
editorial boards, the journals will increase in frequency from two to
four issues per year. The journals publish research papers and critical
survey articles that focus on, but are not limited to, functional
analysis, abstract harmonic analysis and operator theory. AFA and BJMA
have rapidly established themselves as providing high-level scholarship
that addresses important questions in the study of mathematical
analysis. The journals are no longer open access but papers will be
freely available in Project Euclid 5 years after publication. 

As before, they will be available on Project Euclid at
http://projecteuclid.org/euclid.bjma [1] and
http://projecteuclid.org/euclid.afa [2]

This is an announcement for the paper "Randomized rounding for the
largest $j$-simplex problem" by Aleksandar Nikolov.


Abstract:
  The maximum volume $j$-simplex problem asks to compute the
$j$-dimensional simplex of maximum volume inside the convex hull of
a given set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We give a deterministic
approximation algorithm for this problem which achieves an approximation
ratio of $e^{j/2 + o(j)}$. The problem is known to be $\mathsf{NP}$-hard
to approximate within a factor of $2^{cj}$ for some constant $c$. Our
algorithm also approximates the problem of finding the largest determinant
principal $j\times j$ submatrix of a rank $d$ positive semidefinite
matrix, with approximation ratio $e^{j + o(j)}$. We achieve our
approximation by rounding solutions to a generlization of the $D$-optimal
design problem, or, equivalently, the dual of an appropriate smallest
enclosing ellipsoid probelm. Our arguments give a short and simple proof
of a restricted invertibility principle for determinants.

Minkowski valuations" by Astrid Berg, Lukas Parapatits, Franz E. Schuster,

Abstract:
   New Orlicz Brunn-Minkowski inequalities are established for rigid
motion compatible Minkowski valuations of arbitrary degree. These extend
classical log-concavity properties of intrinsic volumes and generalize
seminal results of Lutwak and others. Two different approaches which
refine previously employed techniques are explored. It is shown that
both lead to the same class of Minkowski valuations for which these
inequalities hold. An appendix by Semyon Alesker contains the proof of
a new classification of generalized translation invariant valuations.

Abstract:
   We give a proof of the Khintchine inequalities in non-commutative

Rademacher functions or Gaussian random variables, but also for more
general sequences, e.g. for the analogues of such random variables in
free probability.  We also prove a factorization for operators from
a Hilbert space to a non commutative $L_p$-space, which is new for
$0<p<1$. We end by showing that Mazur maps are H\"older on semifinite
von Neumann algebras.

Abstract:
  In this note various geometric properties of a Banach space $X$ are
characterized by means of weaker corresponding geometric properties
involving an ultrapower $X^\mathcal{U}$. The characterizations do not
depend on the particular choice of the free ultrafilter $\mathcal{U}$. For
example, a point $x\in S_X$ is an MLUR point if and only if $j(x)$
(given by the canonical inclusion $j\colon X \to X^\mathcal{U}$) in
$\B_{X^\mathcal{U}}$ is an extreme point; a point $x\in S_X$ is LUR if
and only if $j(x)$ is not contained in any non-degenerate line segment
of $S_{X^\mathcal{U}}$; a Banach space $X$ is URED if and only if there
are no $x,y \in S_{X^\mathcal{U}}$, $x\neq y$, with $x-y \in j(X)$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Networks for the weak topology
of Banach and Frechet spaces" by S. Gabriyelyan, J. Kcakol, W. Kubis,
and W. Marciszewski.


Abstract:
  We start the systematic study of Fr\'{e}chet spaces which are
$\aleph$-spaces in the weak topology. A topological space $X$ is an
$\aleph_0$-space or an $\aleph$-space if $X$ has a countable $k$-network
or a $\sigma$-locally finite $k$-network, respectively. We are motivated
by the following result of Corson (1966): If the space $C_{c}(X)$
of continuous real-valued functions on a Tychonoff space $X$ endowed
with the compact-open topology is a Banach space, then $C_{c}(X)$
endowed with the weak topology is an $\aleph_0$-space if and only if
$X$ is countable. We extend Corson's result as follows: If the space
$E:=C_{c}(X)$ is a Fr\'echet lcs, then $E$ endowed with its weak topology
$\sigma(E,E')$ is an $\aleph$-space if and only if $(E,\sigma(E,E'))$
is an $\aleph_0$-space if and only if $X$ is countable. We obtain a
necessary and some sufficient conditions on a Fr\'echet lcs to be an
$\aleph$-space in the weak topology. We prove that a reflexive Fr\'echet
lcs $E$ in the weak topology $\sigma(E,E')$ is an $\aleph$-space if
and only if $(E,\sigma(E,E'))$ is an $\aleph_0$-space if and only if
$E$ is separable. We show however that the nonseparable Banach space
$\ell_{1}(\mathbb{R})$ with the weak topology is an $\aleph$-space.

This is an announcement for the paper "H\"{o}lder's inequality: some
recent and unexpected applications" by N. Albuquerque, G. Araujo, and
D. Pellegrino.


Abstract:
  H\"{o}lder's inequality, since its appearance in 1888, has played a
fundamental role in Mathematical Analysis and it is, without any
doubt, one of the milestones in Mathematics. It may seem strange
that, nowadays, it keeps resurfacing and bringing new insights to the
mathematical community. In this expository article we show how a variant
of H\"{o}lder's inequality (although well-known in PDEs) was essentially
overlooked in Functional Analysis and has had a crucial (and in some
sense unexpected) influence in very recent and major breakthroughs
in Mathematics. Some of these recent advances appeared in 2012-2014
and include the theory of Dirichlet series, the famous Bohr radius
problem, certain classical inequalities (such as Bohnenblust--Hille or
Hardy--Littlewood), or even Mathematical Physics.

Abstract:
  We prove that C*-algebras which satisfy a Banach-space property of
being a Grothendieck space cannot be decomposed into a tensor product
of two infinite-dimensional Banach spaces. By a result of Pfitzner, this
class contains all von Neumann algebras and their norm-quotients. We thus
strengthen a recent result of Ghasemi who established a similar conclusion
for C*-tensor products in the case of SAW*-algebras. In particular, we
solve in the negative a problem of Simon Wassermann concerning tensorial
decompositions of the Calkin algebra in the category of Banach spaces.

of Hardy-type Dirichlet series" by Daniel Carando, Andreas Defant,

Abstract:
  Hartman proved in 1939 that the width of the largest possible strip
in the complex plane, on which a Dirichlet series $\sum_n a_n n^{-s}$ is
uniformly a.s.-sign convergent (i.e., $\sum_n \varepsilon_n a_n n^{-s}$
converges uniformly for almost all sequences of signs $\varepsilon_n
=\pm 1$) but does not convergent absolutely, equals $1/2$. We study this
result from a more modern point of view within the framework of so called
Hardy-type Dirichlet series with values in a Banach space.

spaces of vanishing and bounded mean oscillation, vanishing weighted and
weighted spaces of functions or their derivatives, M\"obius invariant
spaces of analytic functions, Lipschitz-H\"older spaces, etc. It has
previously been shown that the bidual M_0** of M_0 is isometrically
isomorphic with M. The main result of this paper is that M_0 is an
M-ideal in M. This has several useful consequences: M_0 has Pelczynskis
properties (u) and (V), M_0 is proximinal in M, and M_0* is a strongly
unique predual of M, while M_0 itself never is a strongly unique predual.

This is an announcement for the paper "On operator relations between
locally convex spaces" by Ersin Kizgut, Elif Uyanik, and Murat Yurdakul.


Abstract:
  A linear operator $T:X \to Y$ between vector spaces is called strictly
singular if for any infinite dimensional closed vector subspace $M$ of
$X$, the restriction of $T$ on $M$ is not a topological isomorphism. In
this note we introduced some sufficient conditions on domain and range
spaces such that any bounded linear operator in between is strictly
singular, and give some examples of spaces satisfying these conditions.

This is an announcement for the paper "Metric spaces admitting
low-distortion embeddings into all $n$-dimensional Banach spaces" by
Mikhail I. Ostrovskii and Beata Randrianantoanina.


Abstract:
   For a fixed $K\gg 1$ and $n\in\mathbb{N}$, $n\gg 1$, we study metric
spaces which admit embeddings with distortion $\le K$ into each
$n$-dimensional Banach space. Classical examples include spaces embeddable
into $\log n$-dimensional Euclidean spaces, and equilateral spaces.
   We prove that good embeddability properties are preserved under
the operation of metric composition of metric spaces. In particular,
we prove that any $n$-point ultrametric can be embedded with uniformly
bounded distortion into any Banach space of dimension $\log n$.
   The main result of the paper is a new example of a family of finite
metric spaces which are not metric compositions of classical examples and
which do embed with uniformly bounded distortion into any Banach space
of dimension $n$.  This partially answers a question of G.~Schechtman.

This is an announcement for the paper "On Khinchine type inequalities
for pairwise independent Rademacher random variables" by Brendan Pass
and Susanna Spektor.


Abstract:
   We consider Khintchine type inequalities on the $p$-th moments of
vectors of $N$ pairwise independent Rademacher random variables. We
establish that an analogue of Khintchine's inequality cannot hold in this
setting with a constant that is independent of $N$; in fact, we prove that
the best constant one can hope for is at least $N^{1/2-1/p}$. Furthermore,
we show that this estimate is sharp for exchangeable vectors when $p =
4$. As a fortunate consequence of our work, we obtain similar results
for $3$-wise independent vectors.
