Narrow orthogonally additive operators in lattice-normed spaces

We consider a new class of narrow orthogonally additive operators in lattice-normed spaces and prove the narrowness of every C-compact norm-laterally-continuous orthogonally additive operator from a Banach–Kantorovich space V into a Banach space Y. Furthermore, every dominated Urysohn operator from V into a Banach sequence lattice Y is also narrow. We establish that the order narrowness of a dominated Urysohn operator from a Banach–Kantorovich space V into a Banach space with mixed norm W implies the order narrowness of the least dominant of the operator.     

An iterative algorithm for solving split feasibility problems and fixed point problems in Banach spaces

The purpose of this paper is to study split feasibility problems and fixed point problems concerning left Bregman strongly relatively nonexpansive mappings in p-uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach spaces. We suggest an iterative scheme for the problem and prove strong convergence theorem of the sequences generated by our scheme under some appropriate conditions in real p-uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach spaces. Finally, we give numerical examples of our result to study its efficiency and implementation. Our result complements many recent and important results in this direction.     

Iterative algorithms for solving variational inequalities and fixed point problems for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces

The purpose of this paper is to study some iterative algorithms for finding a common element of the set of solutions of systems of variational inequalities for inverse-strongly accretive mappings and the set of fixed points of an asymptotically nonexpansive mapping in uniformly convex and 2-uniformly smooth Banach space or uniformly convex and q-uniformly smooth Banach space. Strong convergence theorems are obtained under suitable conditions. We also give some numerical examples to support our main results. The results obtained in this paper improve and extend the recent ones announced by many others in the literature.     

Smoothness,asymptotic smoothness and the Blum-Hanson property

We isolate various sufficient conditions for a Banach space X to have the so-called Blum-Hanson property. In particular, we show that X has the Blum-Hanson property if either the modulus of asymptotic smoothness of X has an extremal behaviour at infinity, or if X is uniformly Gâteaux smooth and embeds isometrically into a Banach space with a 1-unconditional finite-dimensional decomposition.     

On operators which attain their norm

The following problem is considered. LetX andY be Banach spaces. Are those operators fromX toY which attain their norm on the unit cell ofX, norm dense in the space of all operators fromX toY? It is proved that this is always the case ifX is reflexive. In general the answer is negative and it depends on some convexity and smoothness properties of the unit cells inX andY. As an application a refinement of the Krein-Milman theorem and Mazur’s theorem concerning the density of smooth points, in the case of weakly compact sets in a separable space, is obtained.     

On asymptotically harmonic manifolds of negative curvature

We study asymptotically harmonic manifolds of negative curvature, without any cocompactness or homogeneity assumption. We show that asymptotic harmonicity provides a lot of information on the asymptotic geometry of these spaces: in particular, we determine the volume entropy, the spectrum and the relative densities of visual and harmonic measures on the ideal boundary. Then, we prove an asymptotic analogue of the classical mean value property of harmonic manifolds, and we characterize asymptotically harmonic manifolds, among Cartan–Hadamard spaces of strictly negative curvature, by the existence of an asymptotic equivalent \(\tau (u)\mathrm {e}^{Er}\) for the volume-density of geodesic spheres (with \(\tau \) constant in case \(DR_M\) is bounded). Finally, we show the existence of a Margulis function, and explicitly compute it, for all asymptotically harmonic manifolds.     

Fixed point theorems for the sum of ( ws)-compact and asymptotically $${\Phi}$$-nonexpansive mappings

In this paper, we introduce the concept of an asymptotically \({\Phi}\)-nonexpansive operator. In addition, we establish some Krasnoselskiitype fixed point theorems for the sum of two operators A and B, where the operator A is assumed to be (ws)-compact, and B is a (ws)-compact and asymptotically \({\Phi}\)-nonexpansive operator on an unbounded closed convex subset of a Banach space. Also we present Leray–Schauder alternatives and Furi–Pera-type fixed point theorems for the sum of two (ws)-compact mappings.     

Khinchin’s inequality,Dunford-Pettis and compact operators on the space <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis>([0, 1], <Emphasis Type="Italic">X</Emphasis>)

We prove that if X, Y are Banach spaces, Ω a compact Hausdorff space and U:C(Ω, X) → Y is a bounded linear operator, and if U is a Dunford-Pettis operator the range of the representing measure G(Σ) ? DP(X, Y) is an uniformly Dunford-Pettis family of operators and ∥G∥ is continuous at Ø. As applications of this result we give necessary and/or sufficient conditions that some bounded linear operators on the space C([0, 1], X) with values in c ₀ or l _p, (1 ≤ p < ∞) be Dunford-Pettis and/or compact operators, in which, Khinchin’s inequality plays an important role.     

The <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Gelfand–Phillips property in spaces of operators and Dunford–Pettis like sets

The p-Gelfand–Phillips property (1 \({\leq}\) p < ∞) is studied in spaces of operators. Dunford–Pettis type like sets are studied in Banach spaces. We discuss Banach spaces X with the property that every p-convergent operator T:X \({\rightarrow}\) Y is weakly compact, for every Banach space Y.     

Embedding asymptotically expansive systems

A topological dynamical system is said asymptotically expansive when entropy and periodic points grow subexponentially at arbitrarily small scales. We prove a Krieger like embedding theorem for asymptotically expansive systems with the small boundary property. We show that such a system (X, T) embeds in the K-full shift if \( h_{top}(T)<\log K\) and \(\sharp Per_n(X,T)\le K^n\) for any integer n. The embedding is in general not continuous (unless the system is expansive and X is zero-dimensional) but the induced map on the set of invariant measures is a topological embedding. It is shown that this property implies asymptotical expansiveness. We prove also that the inverse of the embedding map may be continuously extended to a faithful principal symbolic extension.     

Asymptotic Behavior of Factorization and Projection Constants

This paper is concerned with estimates of important factorization constants that appear in Banach space theory. We prove upper bounds of the Hilbertian norm of projections on finite-dimensional spaces of interpolation spaces generated by certain abstract interpolation functors and show applications to Calderón–Lozanovskii spaces. We also prove estimates of the p-factorization norm and projection constants for finite-dimensional Banach lattices. We show as a consequence of our results that in a large class of n-dimensional Banach sequence lattices \(E_n\) the projection constants \(\lambda (E_n)\) satisfy \(\lim _{n\rightarrow \infty }\lambda (E_n)/\sqrt{n} = c\), where \(c=\sqrt{2/\pi }\) in the real case and \(c= \sqrt{\pi }/2\) in the complex case. Applications are given to vector-valued sequence spaces.     

On the quantitative asymptotic behavior of strongly nonexpansive mappings in banach and geodesic spaces

We give explicit rates of asymptotic regularity for iterations of strongly nonexpansive mappings T in general Banach spaces as well as rates of metastability (in the sense of Tao) in the context of uniformly convex Banach spaces when T is odd. This, in particular, applies to linear norm-one projections as well as to sunny nonexpansive retractions. The asymptotic regularity results even hold for strongly quasi-nonexpansive mappings (in the sense of Bruck), the addition of error terms and very general metric settings. In particular, we get the first quantitative results on iterations (with errors) of compositions of metric projections in CAT(?)-spaces (? > 0). Under an additional compactness assumption we obtain, moreover, a rate of metastability for the strong convergence of such iterations.     

Injectivity and projectivity in <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-multinormed spaces

We find large classes of injective and projective p-multinormed spaces. In fact, these classes are universal, in the sense that every p-multinormed space embeds into (is a quotient of) an injective (resp. projective) p-multinormed space. As a consequence, we show that any p-multinormed space has a canonical representation as a subspace of a quotient of a Banach lattice.     

On the existence of solutions of differential inclusions

We consider differential inclusions corresponding to accretive operators in a Banach space X for the case in which X is the one-dimensional Euclidean space. We prove existence theorems and an asymptotic stability theorem. We also introduce the notion of a generalizednonincreasing (nondecreasing) multivalued function and establish a relationship between nondecreasing multivalued functions and accretive operators in the one-dimensional Euclidean space.     

Unbounded disjointness preserving linear functionals and operators

Let E and F be Banach lattices. We show first that the disjointness preserving linear functionals separate the points of any infinite dimensional Banach lattice E, which shows that in this case the unbounded disjointness preserving operators from \({E\to F}\) separate the points of E. Then we show that every disjointness preserving operator \({T:E\to F}\) is norm bounded on an order dense ideal. In case E has order continuous norm, this implies that every unbounded disjointness preserving map \({T:E\to F}\) has a unique decomposition T = R + S, where R is a bounded disjointness preserving operator and S is an unbounded disjointness preserving operator, which is zero on a norm dense ideal. For the case that E = C(X), with X a compact Hausdorff space, we show that every disjointness preserving operator \({T:C(X)\to F}\) is norm bounded on a norm dense sublattice algebra of C(X), which leads then to a decomposition of T into a bounded disjointness preserving operator and a finite sum of unbounded disjointness preserving operators, which are zero on order dense ideals.     

Numerically Hypercyclic Operators

An operator T acting on a normed space E is numerically hypercyclic if, for some \({(x, x^*)\in \Pi(E)}\), the numerical orbit \({\{x^*(T^n(x)):n\geq 0\}}\) is dense in \({\mathbb{C}}\). We prove that finite dimensional Banach spaces with dimension at least two support numerically hypercyclic operators. We also characterize the numerically hypercyclic weighted shifts on classical sequence spaces.     

Diagonals of injective tensor products of Banach lattices with bases

Let E be a Banach lattice with a 1-unconditional basis \(\{e_i: i \in \mathbb {N}\}\). Denote by \(\Delta (\check{\otimes }_{n,\epsilon }E)\) (resp. \(\Delta (\check{\otimes }_{n,s,\epsilon }E)\)) the main diagonal space of the n-fold full (resp. symmetric) injective Banach space tensor product, and denote by \(\Delta (\check{\otimes }_{n,|\epsilon |}E)\) (resp. \(\Delta (\check{\otimes }_{n,s,|\epsilon |}E)\)) the main diagonal space of the n-fold full (resp. symmetric) injective Banach lattice tensor product. We show that these four main diagonal spaces are pairwise isometrically isomorphic. We also show that the tensor diagonal \(\{e_i\otimes \cdots \otimes e_i: i \in \mathbb {N}\}\) is a 1-unconditional basic sequence in both \(\check{\otimes }_{n,\epsilon }E\) and \(\check{\otimes }_{n,s,\epsilon }E\).
