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.

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-$\nuu$.

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]).

This is an announcement for the paper "Continuous selections of multivalued mappings" by Dusan Repovs and Pavel V. Semenov. 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.

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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Nonlinear subsets of functions 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Extractig a basis with fixed 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 $V$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Mixed f-divergence and inequalities 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Filter convergence and 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Minimal projections with respect 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 $n$.

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: \[ M(K) \leqslant \frac{C\log^{2/5}(e+ n)}{\sqrt[10]{n}L_K} . \] Archive classification: math.FA Remarks: 19 pages Submitted from: emanuel.milman at gmail.com The paper may be downloaded from the archive by web browser from URL http://front.math.ucdavis.edu/1402.0904 or http://arXiv.org/abs/1402.0904

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 "Functional versions of L_p-affine 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.

Abstract: We present a characterization of the continuous increasing surjections $\phi:K\to L$ between compact lines $K$ and $L$ for which the corresponding subalgebra $\phi^*C(L)$ has the $c_0$-extension property in $C(K)$. A natural question arising in connection with this characterization is shown to be independent of the axioms of ZFC.

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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Lineability of non-differentiable Pettis primitives" by B. Bongiorno, U. B. Darju, and L. Di Piazza. 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Coarse quotient mappings between metric spaces" by Sheng Zhang. Abstract: We give a definition of coarse quotient mapping and show that several results for uniform quotient mapping also hold in the coarse setting. In particular, we prove that any Banach space that is 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 ($\beta$).

This is an announcement for the paper "Weak compactness of almost limited operators" by A. Elbour, N. Machrafi, and M. Moussa. Abstract: The paper is devoted to the relationship between almost limited operators and weakly compacts operators. We show that if $F$ is a $\sigma $-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 a $\sigma $-Dedekind complete Banach lattice then the square of every 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.

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 Also, June 9-13 there will be a Concentration Week on "Groups, Groupoids, 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 http://www.math.tamu.edu/~kerr/concweek14 The Workshop is supported in part by grants from the National Science Foundation (NSF).

This is an announcement for the paper "Some thoughts on approximation 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Bounded holomorphic functions attaining their norms in the bidual" by Daniel Carando and Martin Mazzitelli. 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "On a conjecture of Pisier on the analyticity of semigroups" by Cedric Arhancet. 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 $2$.

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.

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 $\sqrt{\log m}$ Archive classification: math.MG math.FA Remarks: 20 pages Submitted from: seanli at math.uchicago.edu The paper may be downloaded from the archive by web browser from URL http://front.math.ucdavis.edu/1404.6751 or http://arXiv.org/abs/1404.6751

This is an announcement for the paper "Dual Orlicz-Brunn-Minkowski theory: Orlicz $\varphi$-radial addition, Orlicz $L_{\phi}$-dual mixed volume and related inequalities" by Deping Ye. Abstract: This paper develops basic setting for the dual Orlicz-Brunn-Minkowski theory for star bodies. An Orlicz $\varphi$-radial addition of two or more star bodies is proposed and related dual Orlicz-Brunn-Minkowski inequality is established. Based on a linear Orlicz $\varphi$-radial addition of two star bodies, we derive a formula for the Orlicz $L_{\phi}$-dual mixed volume. Moreover, a dual Orlicz-Minkowski inequality for the Orlicz $L_{\phi}$-dual mixed volume, a dual Orlicz isoperimetric inequality for the Orlicz $L_{\phi}$-dual surface area and a dual Orlicz-Urysohn inequality for the Orlicz $L_{\phi}$-harmonic mean radius are proved.

This is an announcement for the paper "A continuum of $\mathrm{C}^*$-norms on $\IB(H)\otimes \IB(H)$ and related tensor products" by Narutaka Ozawa and Gilles Pisier. Abstract: For any pair $M,N$ of von Neumann algebras such that the algebraic tensor product $M\otimes N$ admits more than one $\mathrm{C}^*$-norm, the cardinal of the set of $\mathrm{C}^*$-norms is at least $ {2^{\aleph_0}}$. Moreover there is a family with cardinality $ {2^{\aleph_0}}$ of injective tensor product functors for $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras in Kirchberg's sense. Let $\IB=\prod_n M_{n}$. We also show that, for any non-nuclear von Neumann algebra $M\subset \IB(\ell_2)$, the set of $\mathrm{C}^*$-norms on $\IB \otimes M$ has cardinality equal to $2^{2^{\aleph_0}}$.

This is an announcement for the paper "$R$-boundedness versus $\gamma$-boundedness" by Stanislaw Kwapien, Mark Veraar, and Lutz Weis. Abstract: It is well-known that in Banach spaces with finite cotype, the $R$-bounded and $\gamma$-bounded families of operators coincide. If in 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Weak compactness of operators acting on o-O type spaces" by Karl-Mikael Perfekt. Abstract: We consider operators T : M_0 -> Z and T : M -> Z, where Z is a Banach space and (M_0, M) is a pair of Banach spaces belonging to a 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.

Let $\mu$ be a measure on $R^n$ with even continuous density, and let $K,L$ be origin-symmetric convex bodies in $R^n$ so that $\mu(K\cap H)\le \mu(L\cap H)$ for any central hyperplane H. Then $\mu(K)\le \sqrt{n} \mu(L).$ We also prove this result with better constants for some special classes of measures and bodies. Finally, we prove a version of the hyperplane inequality for convex measures.

This is an announcement for the paper "Remarks on the KLS conjecture and Hardy-type inequalities" by Alexander V. Kolesnikov and Emanuel Milman. Abstract: We generalize the classical Hardy and Faber-Krahn inequalities to arbitrary functions on a convex body $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Disjointly homogeneous 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.

These new affine invariants belong to the recent dual Orlicz-Brunn-Minkowski theory for star bodies (Ye, arXiv:1404.6991). Basic properties for these new affine invariants will be provided. Moreover, related Orlicz affine isoperimetric inequality, cyclic inequality, Santal\'{o} style inequality and Alexander-Fenchel type inequality are established. Besides, an Orlicz isoperimetric inequality for the Orlicz $\phi$-surface area and an Orlicz-Urysohn inequality for the Orlicz $\phi$ mean width are given.

Abstract: We prove that if $K$ is a compact space and the space $P(K\times K)$ of regular probability measures on $K\times K$ has countable tightness in its $weak^*$ topology, then $L_1(\mu)$ is separable for every $\mu\in P(K)$. It has been known that such a result is a consequence of Martin's axiom MA$(\omega_1)$. Our theorem has several consequences; in particular, it generalizes a theorem due to Bourgain and Todor\v{c}evi\'c on measures on Rosenthal compacta.

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 $M_0^{1-\theta} M_1^\theta$.

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.

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.

We show that 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "The Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'{a}s property for operators on $C(K)$" by Maria D. Acosta. Abstract: We provide a version for operators of the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'{a}s Theorem when the domain space is 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 ${\mathbb C}$-uniformly convex space satisfies the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'{a}s 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.

Abstract: We investigate possible quantifications of the Banach-Saks property and the weak Banach-Saks property. We prove quantitative versions of relationships of the Banach-Saks property of a set with norm 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Connections between metric 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.

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.

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.

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.

This is an announcement for the paper "A common fixed point theorem for a commuting family of weak$^{\ast }$ continuous nonexpansive mappings" by Slawomir Borzdynski and Andrzej Wisnicki. Abstract: It is shown that if $S$ is a commuting family of weak$^{\ast }$ continuous nonexpansive mappings acting on a weak$^{\ast }$ compact convex subset $C$ of the dual Banach space $E$, then the set of common fixed points of $S$ is a nonempty nonexpansive retract of $C$. This partially solves a long-standing open problem in metric fixed point theory in the case of commutative semigroups.

This is an announcement for the paper "On rectangular constant in normed linear spaces" by Kallol Paul, Puja Ghosh, and Debmalya Sain. 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "A conjecture on the characterisation of inner product spaces" by Kallol Paul, Debmalya Sain and Lokenath Debnath. 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Borel equivalence relations in the space of bounded operators" by Iian B. Smythe. Abstract: We consider various notions of equivalence in the space of bounded operators on a Hilbert space, including modulo finite 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Constructing Banach ideals using upper $\ell_p$-estimates" by Ben Wallis. Abstract: Using upper $\ell_p$-estimates for normalized weakly null sequence images, we describe a new family of operator ideals $\mathcal{WD}_{\ell_p}^{(\infty,\xi)}$ with parameters $1\leq p\leq\infty$ and $1\leq\xi\leq\omega_1$. These classes contain the completely 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Octahedral norms in spaces of operators" by Julio Becerra Guerrero, Gines Lopez-Perez and Abraham Rueda Zoca. Abstract: We study octahedral norms in the space of bounded linear operators between Banach spaces. In fact, we prove that $L(X,Y)$ 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Biduality and density in Lipschitz function spaces" by A. Jimenez-Vargas, J.M. Sepulcre, and Moises Villegas-Vallecillos. Abstract: For pointed compact metric spaces $(X,d)$, we address the biduality problem as to when the space of Lipschitz functions $\mathrm{Lip}_0(X,d)$ 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: We present a sufficient condition for a Banach space to have the approximate hyperplane series property (AHSP) which actually covers all known examples. We use this property to get a stability result to vector-valued spaces of integrable functions. On the other hand, the study of a possible Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'{a}s version of a classical result of V. Zizler leads to a new characterization of the AHSP for dual spaces in terms of $w^*$-continuous operators and other related results.

This is an announcement for the paper "A hierarchy of separable commutative Calkin algebras" by Pavlos Motakis, Daniele Puglisi and Despoina Zisimopoulou. Abstract: For specific well founded countably branching trees $\mathcal{T}$ we construct $\mathcal{L}_\infty$ spaces $X_{\mathcal{T}}$. For each such tree $\mathcal{T}$ the Calkin algebra of $X_{\mathcal{T}}$ strongly resembles $C(\mathcal{T})$, the algebra of continuous functions defined on $\mathcal{T}$ and in the case in which $\mathcal{T}$ has finite height, those two algebras are homomorphic.

This is an announcement for the paper "The stabilized set of $p$'s in Krivine's theorem can be disconnected" by Kevin Beanland, Daniel Freeman and Pavlos Motakis. 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^$.

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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Arbitrarily distortable Banach spaces of higher order" by Kevin Beanland, Ryan Causey, and Pavlos Motakis. 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 and Ramon van Handel. 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Non-unitarisable representations and maximal symmetry" by Valentin Ferenczi and Christian Rosendal. Abstract: We investigate questions of maximal symmetry in Banach spaces and the structure of certain bounded non-unitarisable groups on Hilbert space. In particular, we provide structural information about bounded 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "O-frames for operators in Banach spaces" by Oleg Reinov. Abstract: These notes are formal. Here, in this abstract, not in the note, we should say that all that is in the text was done, essentially, 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.

We show a subspace of $L_p$ $(2 < p < \infty)$ non isomorphic to $\ell_2$ embeds in $\ell_p$ if and only if its ordinal index is minimum possible.

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.

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.

This is an announcement for the paper "On $(p,r)$-null sequences and 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 implies that there exists an unconditional convex body in R^n which cannot be approximated within the distance d by a projection of a polytope with N faces unless N > exp(c(d)n). We also show that for t>2, the cardinality of a t-separated set of completely symmetric bodies in R^n does not exceed exp exp (c(t)(log n)^2).

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 $p \not\in \{1,2,\infty\}$.

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.

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.

Abstract: This is the fourth 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 we discuss Nigel's partial solutions (obtained jointly with one of us) of the problem of whether the complex method 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.

Abstract: In this paper we first prove the metric approximation property for weighted mixed-norm Lebesgue spaces. Then, using Gabor frame representation we show that the same property holds in weighted modulation and Wiener amalgam spaces. As a consequence, Grothendieck's theory becomes applicable, and we give criteria for nuclearity and r-nuclearity for operators acting on these space as well as derive the corresponding trace formulae. Finally, we apply the notion of nuclearity to functions of the harmonic oscillator on modulation spaces.

Abstract: We investigate certain recently introduced ODE-determined varying exponent $L^p$ spaces. It turns out that these spaces are finitely representable in a concrete universal varying exponent $\ell^p$ space. Moreover, this can be accomplished in a natural unified fashion. This leads to order-isomorphic isometric embeddings of all of the above $L^p$ spaces to an ultrapower of the above varying exponent $\ell^p$ space.

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 $Z_2$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Two refinements of the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as modulus" by Mario Chica, Vladimir Kadets, Miguel Martin, Javier Meri, and Soloviova. Abstract: Extending the celebrated result by Bishop and Phelps that the set of norm attaining functionals is always dense in the topological 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 $X'$.

In particular, we give an explicit formula for the projection constants and we prove that an hyperplane of $c$ is isometric 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.

Abstract: We prove that for any operator T on bi--parameter BMO the identity factors through T or Id - T. As a consequence, bi--parameter 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 "dualized" or "adjoint" 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.

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.

An application of our result gives a quantitative version of the non-embeddability of countably branching hyperbolic trees into reflexive Banach spaces admitting an equivalent asymptotically uniformly smooth norm and an equivalent asymptotically uniformly convex norm from Baudier, Kalton and Lancien.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the norm of products of polynomials on ultraproduct of Banach spaces" by Jorge Tomas Rodriguez. Abstract: The purpose of this article is to study the problem of finding sharp lower bounds for the norm of the product of polynomials in the 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] Editor-in-chief M. S.

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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Log-concavity properties of Minkowski valuations" by Astrid Berg, Lukas Parapatits, Franz E. Schuster, and Manuel Weberndorfer. 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 $L_p$-spaces for all $0< p<1$. These new inequalities are valid for the 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.

This is an announcement for the paper "Uniform-to-proper duality of geometric properties of Banach spaces and their ultrapowers" by Jarno Talponen. 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.

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.

This is an announcement for the paper "On M-ideals and o-O type spaces" by Karl-Mikael Perfekt. Abstract: We consider pairs of Banach spaces (M_0, M) such that M_0 is defined in terms of a little-o condition, and M is defined by the corresponding big-O condition. The construction is general and pairs include function 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.
