Separated sequences in nonreflexive Banach spaces

We prove that there is 1$"> such that the unit ball of any nonreflexive Banach space contains a -separated sequence. The supremum of these constants is estimated from below by and from above approximately by . Given any 1$">, we also construct a nonreflexive space so that if the convex hull of a sequence is sufficiently close to the unit sphere, then its separation constant does not exceed .

     

Hausdorff measure of noncompactness of certain matrix operators on the sequence spaces of generalized means

In the present paper, we derive some identities or estimates for the operator norms and the Hausdorff measures of noncompactness of certain matrix operators on the sequence spaces of generalized means. Further, by applying the Hausdorff measure of noncompactness, we obtain the necessary and sufficient conditions for such operators to be compact.     

The relative Chebyshev centers of finite sets in geodesic spaces

In the present paper we estimate variation in the relative Chebyshev radius R _W (M), where M and W are nonempty bounded sets of a metric space, as the sets M and W change. We find the closure and the interior of the set of all N-nets each of which contains its unique relative Chebyshev center, in the set of all N-nets of a special geodesic space endowed by the Hausdorff metric. We consider various properties of relative Chebyshev centers of a finite set which lie in this set.     

Some results on monotone metric spaces

We present some new results on monotone metric spaces. We prove that every bounded 1-monotone metric space in R^d${\mathbb{R}}^d$ has a finite 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure. As a consequence we obtain that each continuous bounded curve in R^d${\mathbb{R}}^d$ has a finite length if and only if it can be written as a finite sum of 1-monotone continuous bounded curves. Next we construct a continuous function f such that M   has a zero Lebesgue measure provided the graph(f|M)$\mathrm{graph}(f|M)$ is a monotone set in the plane. We finally construct a differentiable function with a monotone graph and unbounded variation.     

On a problem of Rolewicz about Banach spaces that admit support sets

We construct an example of a nonseparable Banach space which does not admit a support set.² It is a consistent (and necessarily independent from the axioms of ZFC) example of a space C(K) of continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff K with the supremum norm. The construction depends on a construction of a Boolean algebra with some combinatorial properties. The space is also hereditarily Lindelöf in the weak topology but it doesn't have any nonseparable subspace nor any nonseparable quotient which is a C(K) space for K dispersed.     

On some measures of noncompactness in the Fréchet spaces of continuous functions

In this paper, the Fréchet spaces of continuous functions defined on a bounded or an unbounded interval, with values in the space of all real sequences, are considered. For those Fréchet spaces new regular measures of noncompactness are constructed and several properties of these measures are established. The results obtained are further applied to infinite systems of functional-integral equations.     

On decompositions of Banach spaces of continuous functions on Mrówka's spaces

It is well known that if is infinite compact Hausdorff and scattered (i.e., with no perfect subsets), then the Banach space of continuous functions on has complemented copies of , i.e., . We address the question if this could be the only type of decompositions of into infinite-dimensional summands for infinite, scattered. Making a special set-theoretic assumption such as the continuum hypothesis or Martin's axiom we construct an example of Mrówka's space (i.e., obtained from an almost disjoint family of sets of positive integers) which answers positively the above question.

     

Finite-codimensional Chebyshev subspaces in the complex spaceC(Q)

We consider finite-condimensional Chebyshev subspaces in the complex spaceC(Q), whereQ is a compact Hausdorff space, and prove analogs of some theorems established earlier for the real case by Garkavi and Brown (in particular, we characterize such subspaces). It is shown that if the real spaceC(Q) contains finite-codimensional Chebyshev subspaces, then the same is true of the complex spaceC(Q) (with the sameQ).

On graph measures in banach spaces and description of essential spectra of multidimensional transport equation

In this paper, we define new measures called respectively graph measure of noncompactness and graph measure of weak noncompactness. Moreover, we apply the obtained results to discuss the incidence of some perturbation results realized in [2] on the behavior of essential spectra of such closed densely defined linear operators on Banach spaces. These results are exploited to investigate the essential spectra of a multidimensional neutron transport operator on L₁ spaces.     

Countable compact Hausdorff spaces need not be metrizable in ZF

We show that the existence of a countable, first countable, zero-dimensional, compact Hausdorff space which is not second countable, hence not metrizable, is consistent with ZF.

     

Local dual spaces of Banach spaces of vector-valued functions

We show that is a local dual of , and is a local dual of , where is a Banach space. A local dual space of a Banach space is a subspace of so that we have a local representation of in satisfying the properties of the representation of in provided by the principle of local reflexivity.

     

On some measures of noncompactness in the space of continuous functions

We consider some quantities in the space of functions continuous on a bounded interval, which are related to monotonicity of functions. Based on those quantities we construct a few measures of noncompactness in the mentioned function space. Several properties of those measures are established; among others it is shown that they are regular or “partly” regular measures and equivalent to the Hausdorff measure of noncompactness.     

On the extremal structure of the unit balls of Banach spaces of weakly continuous functions and their duals

A sufficient and then a necessary condition are given for a function to be an extreme point of the unit ball of the Banach space of continuous functions, under the supremum norm, from a compact Hausdorff topological space into a Banach space equipped with its weak topology . Strongly extreme points of the unit ball of are characterized as the norm-one functions that are uniformly strongly extreme point valued on a dense subset of . It is shown that a variety of stronger types of extreme points (e.g. denting points) never exist in the unit ball of . Lastly, some naturally arising and previously known extreme points of the unit ball of are shown to actually be strongly exposed points.

Approximation of the limit distance function in Banach spaces

In this paper we study the behavior of the limit distance function d(x)=limdist(x,Cn) defined by a nested sequence (Cn) of subsets of a real Banach space X. We first present some new criteria for the non-emptiness of the intersection of a nested sequence of sets and of their ε-neighborhoods from which we derive, among other results, Dilworth's characterization [S.J. Dilworth, Intersections of centred sets in normed spaces, Far East J. Math. Sci. (Part II) (1988) 129-136 (special volume)] of Banach spaces not containing c₀ and Marino's result [G. Marino, A remark on intersection of convex sets, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 284 (2003) 775-778]. Passing then to the approximation of the limit distance function, we show three types of results: (i) that the limit distance function defined by a nested sequence of non-empty bounded closed convex sets coincides with the distance function to the intersection of the weak^∗-closures in the bidual; this extends and improves the results in [J.M.F. Castillo, P.L. Papini, Distance types in Banach spaces, Set-Valued Anal. 7 (1999) 101-115]; (ii) that the convexity condition is necessary; and (iii) that in spaces with separable dual, the distance function to a weak^∗-compact convex set is approximable by a (non-necessarily nested) sequence of bounded closed convex sets of the space.     

On complemented subspaces of sums and products of Banach spaces

It is proved that there exist complemented subspaces of countable topological products (locally convex direct sums) of Banach spaces which cannot be represented as topological products (locally convex direct sums) of Banach spaces.

Complementation and decompositions in some weakly Lindelöf Banach spaces

Let Γ denote an uncountable set. We consider the questions if a Banach space X of the form C(K) of a given class (1) has a complemented copy of c₀(Γ) or (2) for every c₀(Γ)⊆X has a complemented c₀(E) for an uncountable E⊆Γ or (3) has a decomposition X=A⊕B where both A and B are nonseparable. The results concern a superclass of the class of nonmetrizable Eberlein compacts, namely Ks such that C(K) is Lindelöf in the weak topology and we restrict our attention to Ks scattered of countable height. We show that the answers to all these questions for these C(K)s depend on additional combinatorial axioms which are independent of ZFC ± CH. If we assume the P-ideal dichotomy, for every c₀(Γ)⊆C(K) there is a complemented c₀(E) for an uncountable E⊆Γ, which yields the positive answer to the remaining questions. If we assume ♣, then we construct a nonseparable weakly Lindelöf C(K) for K of height ω+1 where every operator is of the form cI+S for c∈R and S with separable range and conclude from this that there are no decompositions as above which yields the negative answer to all the above questions. Since, in the case of a scattered compact K, the weak topology on C(K) and the pointwise convergence topology coincide on bounded sets, and so the Lindelöf properties of these two topologies are equivalent, many results concern also the space Cp(K).
