On binormality in non-separable Banach spaces

We study binormality, a separation property of the norm and weak topologies of a Banach space. We show that every Banach space which belongs to a P-class is binormal. We also show that the asplundness of a Banach space is equivalent to a related separation property of its dual space.     

Asplund sets, differentiability and subdifferentiability of functions in Banach spaces

We show that Asplund sets are effective tools to study differentiability of Lipschitz functions, and ε-subdifferentiability of lower semicontinuous functions on general Banach spaces. If a locally Lipschitz function defined on an Asplund generated space has a minimal Clarke subdifferential mapping, then it is TBY-uniformly strictly differentiable on a dense Gδ subset of X. Examples are given of locally Lipschitz functions that are TBY-uniformly strictly differentiable everywhere, but nowhere Fréchet differentiable.     

Ball remotality in Banach spaces

In this paper, we continue our study of ball remotality of subspaces of Banach spaces. In particular, we study the problem in classical sequence spaces c₀, c, ?₁ and ?_∞; and also ball remotality of a Banach space in its bidual.     

Numerical index of absolute sums of Banach spaces

We study the numerical index of absolute sums of Banach spaces, giving general conditions which imply that the numerical index of the sum is less or equal than the infimum of the numerical indices of the summands and we provide some examples where the equality holds covering the already known case of c₀-, ?₁- and ?_∞-sums and giving as a new result the case of E-sums where E has the RNP and n(E)=1 (in particular for finite-dimensional E with n(E)=1). We also show that the numerical index of a Banach space Z which contains a dense union of increasing one-complemented subspaces is greater or equal than the limit superior of the numerical indices of those subspaces. Using these results, we give a detailed short proof of the already known fact that, for a fixed p, the numerical indices of all infinite-dimensional Lp(μ)-spaces coincide.     

A note on ball-covering property of Banach spaces

By a ball-covering B of a Banach space X, we mean that B is a collection of open (or closed) balls off the origin whose union contains the unit sphere SX of X; and X is said to have the ball-covering property (BCP) provided it admits a ball-covering by countably many balls. In this note we give a natural example showing that the ball-covering property of a Banach space is not inherited by its subspaces; and we present a sharp quantitative version of the recent Fonf and Zanco renorming result saying that if the dual X^∗ of X is w^∗ separable, then for every ε>0 there exist a (1+ε)-equivalent norm on X, and an R>0 such that in this new norm SX admits a ball-covering by countably many balls of radius R. Namely, we show that R=R(ε) can be taken arbitrarily close to (1+ε)/ε, and that for X=?₁[0,1] the corresponding R cannot be equal to 1/ε. This gives the sharp order of magnitude for R(ε) as ε→0.     

Eventual differentiability of functional differential equations in Banach spaces

This paper concerns the regularity of a functional differential equation in the form: , t>0, where A is the generator of an analytic semigroup on a Banach space X, and B₁,B₂ are α(γ−A)-bounded linear operator for 0<α<1. By spectral analysis, it is shown that the associated solution semigroup of this equation is eventually differentiable.     

Well-posedness of a class of perturbed optimization problems in Banach spaces

Let X be a Banach space and Z a nonempty subset of X. Let J:Z→R be a lower semicontinuous function bounded from below and p?1. This paper is concerned with the perturbed optimization problem of finding z₀∈Z such that ‖x−z₀p^‖+J(z₀)=infz∈Z{‖x−zp^‖+J(z)}, which is denoted by minJ(x,Z). The notions of the J-strictly convex with respect to Z and of the Kadec with respect to Z are introduced and used in the present paper. It is proved that if X is a Kadec Banach space with respect to Z and Z is a closed relatively boundedly weakly compact subset, then the set of all x∈X for which every minimizing sequence of the problem minJ(x,Z) has a converging subsequence is a dense Gδ-subset of X?Z₀, where Z₀ is the set of all points z∈Z such that z is a solution of the problem minJ(z,Z). If additionally p>1 and X is J-strictly convex with respect to Z, then the set of all x∈X for which the problem minJ(x,Z) is well-posed is a dense Gδ-subset of X?Z₀.     

Existence and porosity for a class of perturbed optimization problems in Banach spaces

Let X be a Banach space and Z a nonempty closed subset of X. Let be an upper semicontinuous function bounded from above. This paper is concerned with the perturbed optimization problem supz∈Z{J(z)+‖x−z‖}, which is denoted by (x,J)-sup. We shall prove in the present paper that if Z is a closed boundedly relatively weakly compact nonempty subset, then the set of all x∈X for which the problem (x,J)-sup has a solution is a dense Gδ-subset of X. In the case when X is uniformly convex and J is bounded, we will show that the set of all points x in X for which there does not exist z₀∈Z such that J(z₀)+‖x−z₀‖=supz∈Z{J(z)+‖x−z‖} is a σ-porous subset of X and the set of all points x∈X?Z⁰ such that there exists a maximizing sequence of the problem (x,J)-sup which has no convergent subsequence is a σ-porous subset of X?Z⁰, where Z⁰ denotes the set of all z∈Z such that z is in the solution set of (z,J)-sup.     

Fourier multipliers and periodic solutions of delay equations in Banach spaces

In this paper we characterize the existence and uniqueness of periodic solutions of inhomogeneous abstract delay equations and establish maximal regularity results for strong solutions. The conditions are obtained in terms of R-boundedness of linear operators determined by the equations and Lp- Fourier multipliers. Periodic mild solutions are also studied and characterized.     

Degenerate first-order inverse problems in Banach spaces

We are concerned with an inverse problem for a degenerate linear evolution equation of first-order. Both hyperbolic and parabolic cases will be considered. We indicate sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of a solution. All the results can be applied to inverse problems for equations from mathematical physics. As a possible application of the abstract theorems, some examples of partial differential equations are given.     

Best simultaneous approximations, asymptotically nonexpansive mappings and variational inequalities in Banach spaces

The existence of common fixed points is established for three mappings where T is either generalized (f,g)-nonexpansive or asymptotically (f,g)-nonexpansive on a nonempty subset of a Banach space. As applications, the invariant best simultaneous approximation results are proved and the existence of solution of variational inequalities is obtained. Our results unify and substantially improve several recent results existing in the current literature.     

Perturbations of eventually differentiable and eventually norm-continuous semigroups on Banach spaces

In this paper we discuss perturbations of eventually differentiable and eventually norm-continuous semigroups on a Banach space. Two kinds of new perturbation theorems are obtained.     

On Hanner type inequalities with a weight for Banach spaces

We shall present several Hanner type inequalities with a weight constant and characterize 2-uniformly smooth and 2-uniformly convex Banach spaces with these inequalities. p-Uniformly smooth and q-uniformly convex Banach spaces will be also characterized with another Hanner type inequalities with a weight in the other side term. The best value of the weight in these inequalities will be determined for Lp spaces. Also we shall present a duality theorem between these inequalities in a generalized form.     

Multilinear commutators of Calderón-Zygmund operators on Hardy-type spaces with non-doubling measures

Under the assumption that μ is a non-negative Radon measure on Rd which only satisfies some growth condition, the authors obtain the boundedness in some Hardy-type spaces of multilinear commutators generated by Calderón-Zygmund operators or fractional integrals with RBMO(μ) functions, where the Hardy-type spaces are some appropriate subspaces, associated to the considered RBMO(μ) functions, of the Hardy space H¹(μ) of Tolsa.     

Hardy spaces for the strip

In this paper we shall study Hardy spaces of analytic functions in a strip S. Our main result is on one hand an intrinsic characterization of the spaces and on the second that polynomials are dense. We also present an orthogonal (in H²(S)) basis of polynomials.     

Tractability results for weighted Banach spaces of smooth functions

We study the L_∞-approximation problem for weighted Banach spaces of smooth d-variate functions, where d can be arbitrarily large. We consider the worst case error for algorithms that use finitely many pieces of information from different classes. Adaptive algorithms are also allowed. For a scale of Banach spaces we prove necessary and sufficient conditions for tractability in the case of product weights. Furthermore, we show the equivalence of weak tractability with the fact that the problem does not suffer from the curse of dimensionality.     

Tightness and distinguished Fréchet spaces

Valdivia invented a nondistinguished Fréchet space whose weak bidual is quasi-Suslin but not K-analytic. We prove that Grothendieck/Köthe's original nondistinguished Fréchet space serves the same purpose. Indeed, a Fréchet space is distinguished if and only if its strong dual has countable tightness, a corollary to the fact that a (DF)-space is quasibarrelled if and only if its tightness is countable. This answers a Cascales/K?kol/Saxon question and leads to a rich supply of (DF)-spaces whose weak duals are quasi-Suslin but not K-analytic, including the spaces Cc(κ) for κ a cardinal of uncountable cofinality. Our level of generality rises above (DF)- or even dual metric spaces to Cascales/Orihuela's class G. The small cardinals b and d invite a novel analysis of the Grothendieck/Köthe example, and are useful throughout.     

Asymptotic periodicity for some evolution equations in Banach spaces

This work deals with the existence and uniqueness of pseudo-almost periodic and asymptotically ω-periodic mild solutions to some evolution equations in Banach spaces.     

On certain spaces of vector measures of bounded variation

If (Σ,X) is a measurable space and X a Banach space we investigate the X-inheritance of copies of ?_∞ in certain subspaces Δ(Σ,X) of bvca(Σ,X), the Banach space of all X-valued countable additive measures of bounded variation equipped with the variation norm. Among the consequences of our main theorem we get a theorem of J. Mendoza on the X-inheritance of copies of ?_∞ in the Bochner space L₁(μ,X) and other of the author on the X-inheritance of copies of ?_∞ in bvca(Σ,X).     

On the stability of the linear mapping in Banach modules
