Type,cotype and twisted sums induced by complex interpolation

This paper deals with extensions or twisted sums of Banach spaces that come induced by complex interpolation and the relation between the type and cotype of the spaces in the interpolation scale and the nontriviality and singularity of the induced extension. The results are presented in the context of interpolation of families of Banach spaces, and are applied to the study of submodules of Schatten classes. We also obtain nontrivial extensions of spaces without the CAP which also fail the CAP.     

On Asymptotic Structure,the Szlenk Index and UKK Properties in Banach Spaces

Let B be a separable Banach space and let X=B ^* be separable. We prove that if B has finite Szlenk index (for all > 0) then B can be renormed to have the weak* uniform Kadec-Klee property. Thus if > 0 there exists () > 0 so that if x _n is a sequence in the ball of X converging ^* to x so that . In addition we show that the norm can be chosen so that () c^p for some p < and c >0.     

Boundaries of Asplund spaces

We study the relationship between the classical combinatorial inequalities of Simons and the more recent (I)-property of Fonf and Lindenstrauss. We obtain a characterization of strong boundaries for Asplund spaces using the new concept of finitely self-predictable set. Strong properties for w^∗-K-analytic boundaries are established as well as a sup-lim sup theorem for Baire maps.     

Divisibility in the K0‐Group of the Algebra of Operators on a Banach Space

Let Figiel's reflexive Banach space which is not isomorphic to its Cartesian square. We show that the K ₀group of the algebra of continuous, linear operators on contain a subgroup isomorphic to the group c ₀₀( ) of sequences rational numbers with z _n=0 eventually.     

Absolutely L – Summing Norms of Diagonal Operators in lr and Limit Orders of Lexp – Summing Operators

We compute the absolutely L – summing norms of the diagonal operators acting on l_r (1 ≤ q, r < ∞) and determine the limit orders of the absolutely L_exp – summing operators.     

Banach Spaces with Property (M) and their Szlenk Indices

We show that a separable Banach space with property (M*) has a Szlenk index equal to ω₀, and a norm with an optimal modulus of asymptotic uniform smoothness. From this we derive a condition on the Szlenk functions of the space and its dual which characterizes embeddability into c ₀ or an ℓ _p -sum of finite dimensional spaces. We also prove that two Lipschitz-isomorphic Orlicz sequence spaces contain the same ℓ _p -spaces.      

Fourier multipliers and spectral measures in Banach function spaces

It is classical that amongst all spaces L^p (G), 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞, for , or say, only L² (G) (that is, p = 2) has the property that every bounded Borel function on the dual group Γ determines a bounded Fourier multiplier operator in L² (G). Stone’s theorem asserts that there exists a regular, projection-valued measure (of operators on L² (G)), defined on the Borel sets of Γ, with Fourier-Stieltjes transform equal to the group of translation operators on L² (G); this fails for every p ≠ 2. We show that this special status of L² (G) amongst the spaces L^p (G), 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞, is actually more widespread; it continues to hold in a much larger class of Banach function spaces defined over G (relative to Haar measure).      

K-Theory for the Banach Algebra of Operators on James''s Quasi-reflexive Banach Spaces

We prove that the K-groups of the Banach algebra of bounded, linear operators on the pth James space , where 1 < p < , are given by and . Moreover, for each Banach space and each non-zero, closed ideal contained in the ideal of inessential operators, we show that and . This enables us to calculate the K-groups of for each Banach space which is a direct sum of finitely many James spaces and -spaces.     

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.

Noncontinuity of spectrum for the adjoint of an operator

This paper deals with the connection between continuity of spectrum at an element of the Banach algebra of all bounded linear operators on a Banach space and at the adjoint of . In particular, we show that, if is not reflexive, the spectrum function may be continuous at and discontinuous at .

     

Ricci-positive metrics on connected sums of projective spaces

It is a well known result of Gromov that all manifolds of a given dimension with positive sectional curvature are subject to a universal bound on the sum of their Betti numbers. On the other hand, there is no such bound for manifolds with positive Ricci curvature: indeed, Perelman constructed Ricci positive metrics on arbitrary connected sums of complex projective planes. In this paper, we revisit and extend Perelman's techniques to construct Ricci positive metrics on arbitrary connected sums of complex, quaternionic, and octonionic projective spaces in every dimension.     

Distortion of Banach spaces and supermultiplicative operational quantities

We prove that certain operational quantities q which characterize upper-semi Fredholm operators are supermultiplicative, in the sense of that q(S)q(T)?q(ST). Based on the distortion of Banach spaces we show that another is not supermultiplicative. Moreover we introduce two supermultiplicative operational quantities which characterize also the upper-semi Fredholm operators and we prove that they are not equivalent to some operational quantities known.     

On Uniformly Finitely Extensible Banach spaces

We continue the study of Uniformly Finitely Extensible Banach spaces (in short, UFO) initiated in Moreno and Plichko (2009) [39] and Castillo and Plichko (2010) [18]. We show that they have the Uniform Approximation Property of Pe?czyński and Rosenthal and are compactly extensible. We will also consider their connection with the automorphic space problem of Lindenstrauss and Rosenthal – do there exist automorphic spaces other than _c0(I)$c_0(I)$ and _?2(I)${?}_2(I)$? – showing that a space all whose subspaces are UFO must be automorphic when it is Hereditarily Indecomposable (HI), and a Hilbert space when it is either locally minimal or isomorphic to its square. We will finally show that most HI – among them, the super-reflexive HI space constructed by Ferenczi – and asymptotically _?2${?}_2$ spaces in the literature cannot be automorphic.     

A Family of Enlargements of Maximal Monotone Operators

We introduce a family of enlargements of maximal monotone operators. The Brønsted and Rockafellar -subdifferential operator can be regarded as an enlargement of the subdifferential. The family of enlargements introduced in this paper generalizes the Brønsted and Rockafellar -subdifferential (enlargement) and also generalize the enlargement of an arbitrary maximal monotone operator recently proposed by Burachik, Iusem and Svaiter. We characterize the biggest and the smallest enlargement belonging to this family and discuss some general properties of its members. A subfamily is also studied, namely the subfamily of those enlargements which are also additive. Members of this subfamily are formally closer to the -subdifferential. Existence of maximal elements is proved. In the case of the subdifferential, we prove that the -subdifferential is maximal in this subfamily.
