We show that the direct sum of Banach spaces $X_{1},..., X_{r}$ with a strictly monotone norm has the weak fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings whenever $M(X_{i})>1$ for each $i=1,...,r$. In particular, $(X_{1} \oplus ... \oplus X_{r})_ψ$ enjoys the fixed point property if Banach spaces $X_{i}$ are uniformly nonsquare. This combined with the earlier results gives a definitive answer for r=2: the direct sum of uniformly nonsquare spaces $X_{1}, X_{2}$ with any monotone norm has FPP. Our results are extended for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in the intermediate sense.
We prove some results concerning the WORTH property and the García-Falset coefficient of absolute sums of infinitely many Banach spaces. The Opial property/uniform Opial property of infinite $\ell^p$-sums is also studied and some properties analogous to the Opial property/uniform Opial property for Lebesgue-Bochner spaces $L^p(μ,X)$ are discussed.
We prove that the diametral strong diameter 2 property of a Banach space (meaning that, in convex combinations of relatively weakly open subsets of its unit ball, every point has an "almost diametral" point) is stable under 1-sums, i.e., the direct sum of two spaces with the diametral strong diameter 2 property equipped with the 1-norm has again this property.
We study certain twisted sums of Orlicz spaces with non-trivial type which can be viewed as Fenchel-Orlicz spaces on ${\rm {\bf R}}^2$. We then show that a large class of Fenchel-Orlicz spaces on ${\rm {\bf R}}^n$ can be renormed to have property (M). In particular this gives a new construction of the twisted Hilbert space $Z_2$ and shows it has property (M), after an appropriate renorming.
Explicit formulae are given for a type of Battle-Lemarié scaling functions and related wavelets. Compactly supported sums of their translations are established and applied to alternative norm characterization of sequence spaces isometrically isomorphic to Nikolskii-Besov spaces on R.
It is shown that if a Banach space X has the weak Banach-Saks property and the weak fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings and Y satisfies property asymptotic (P) (which is weaker than the condition WCS(Y)>1), then the direct sum of X and Y endowed with a strictly monotone norm enjoys the weak fixed point property. The same conclusion is valid if X admits a 1-unconditional basis.
A Banach space $X$ is said to have the ball generated property (BGP) if every closed, bounded, convex subset of $X$ can be written as an intersection of finite unions of closed balls. In 2002 S. Basu proved that the BGP is stable under (infinite) $c_0$- and $\ell^p$-sums for $1<p<\infty$. We will show here that for any absolute, normalised norm $\|\cdot\|_E$ on $\mathbb{R}^2$ satisfying a certain smoothness condition the direct sum $X\oplus_E Y$ of two Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ with respect to $\|\cdot\|_E$ enjoys the BGP whenever $X$ and $Y$ have the BGP.
We show that if a Banach space X has the weak fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings and Y has the generalized Gossez-Lami Dozo property or is uniformly convex in every direction, then the direct sum of X and Y with a strictly monotone norm has the weak fixed point property. The result is new even if Y is finite-dimensional.
We characterize the properties $(z)$ and $(az)$ for an operator $T$ whose dual $T^*$ has the SVEP on the complementary of the upper semi-Weyl spectrum of $T.$ If $S$ and $T$ are Banach space operators satisfying property $(z)$ or $(az),$ we give conditions on $S$ and $T$ to ensure the preservation of these properties by the direct sum $S\oplus T.$ Some results are given for multipliers and in general for $(H)$-operators. Also we give a correct proof of \cite[Theorem 2.3]{SZ} which was proved by using the equality $σ_p^0(S\oplus T)= σ_p^0(S)\cup σ_p^0(T).$ However this equality is not true; we …
In this paper we study conditions assuring that the Bishop-Phelps-Bollobás property (BPBp, for short) is inherited by absolute summands of the range space or of the domain space. Concretely, given a pair (X, Y) of Banach spaces having the BPBp, (a) if Y1 is an absolute summand of Y, then (X, Y1) has the BPBp; (b) if X1 is an absolute summand of X of type 1 or \infty, then (X1, Y) has the BPBp. Besides, analogous results for the BPBp for compact operators and for the density of norm attaining operators are also given. We also show that the Bishop-Phelps-Bollobás property for numerical radius is…
For a compact Hausdorff space $S$, we prove that the closed unit ball of a closed linear subalgebra of the space of real-valued continuous functions on $S$, denoted by $C(S)$, satisfies property-$(P_1)$ (the set-valued generalization of strong proximinality) for the non-empty closed bounded subsets of the bidual of $C(S)$. Various stability results related to property-$(P_1)$ and semi-continuity properties of restricted Chebyshev-center maps are also established. As a consequence, we derive that if $Y$ is a proximinal finite co-dimensional subspace of $c_0$ then the closed unit ball of $Y$ sat…
A Banach space $X$ is said to have property (K) if every $w^*$-convergent sequence in $X^*$ admits a convex block subsequence which converges with respect to the Mackey topology. We study the connection of this property with strongly weakly compactly generated Banach spaces and its stability under subspaces, quotients and $\ell^p$-sums. We extend a result of Frankiewicz and Plebanek by proving that property (K) is preserved by $\ell^1$-sums of less than $\mathfrak{p}$ summands. Without any cardinality restriction, we show that property (K) is stable under $\ell^p$-sums for $1<p<\infty$.
A Banach space $X$ is said to have the $\mathsf{SVM}$ (stability of vector measures) property if there exists a constant $v<\infty$ such that for any algebra of sets $\mathcal F$, and any function $ν\colon\mathcal F\to X$ satisfying $$\|ν(A\cup B)-ν(A)-ν(B)\|\leq 1\quad{for disjoint}A,B\in\mathcal F,$$there is a vector measure $μ\colon\mathcal F\to X$ with $\|ν(A)-μ(A)\|\leq v$ for all $A\in\mathcal F$. If this condition is valid when restricted to set algebras $\mathcal F$ of cardinality less than some fixed cardinal number $κ$, then we say that $X$ has the $κ$-$\mathsf{SVM}$ property. The le…
A Daugavet-point (resp.~$Δ$-point) of a Banach space is a norm one element $x$ for which every point in the unit ball (resp.~element $x$ itself) is in the closed convex hull of unit ball elements that are almost at distance 2 from $x$. A Banach space has the well-known Daugavet property (resp.~diametral local diameter 2 property) if and only if every norm one element is a Daugavet-point (resp.~$Δ$-point). This paper complements the article "Delta- and Daugavet-points in Banach spaces" by T. A. Abrahamsen, R. Haller, V. Lima, and K. Pirk, where the study of the existence of Daugavet- and $Δ$-po…
We prove that, if Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ are $δ$-average rough, then their direct sum with respect to an absolute norm $N$ is $δ/N(1,1)$-average rough. In particular, for octahedral $X$ and $Y$ and for $p$ in $(1,\infty)$ the space $X\oplus_p Y$ is $2^{1-1/p}$-average rough, which is in general optimal. Another consequence is that for any $δ$ in $(1,2]$ there is a Banach space which is exactly $δ$-average rough. We give a complete characterization when an absolute sum of two Banach spaces is octahedral or has the strong diameter 2 property. However, among all of the absolute sums, the diame…
We study the Bishop-Phelps-Bollobás property for operators between Banach spaces. Sufficient conditions are given for generalized direct sums of Banach spaces with respect to a~uniformly monotone Banach sequence lattice to have the approximate hyperplane series property. This result implies that Bishop-Phelps-Bollobás theorem holds for operators from $\ell_1$ into such direct sums of Banach spaces. We also show that the direct sum of two spaces with the approximate hyperplane series property has such property whenever the norm of the direct sum is absolute.
It is shown that if the dual of a Banach space satisfies Property($K^*$) then $R(X) \leq 1 + \frac{\displaystyle 1}{\displaystyle 1 + r_{X^*}(1)} < 2$ where $r_{X^*}(c)$ is Opial's modulus for $X^*.$ Thus $X$ has the weak fixed point property.
A Banach space $X$ is said to have the alternative Daugavet property if for every (bounded and linear) rank-one operator $T:X\longrightarrow X$ there exists a modulus one scalar $ω$ such that $\|Id + ωT\|= 1 + \|T\|$. We give geometric characterizations of this property in the setting of $C^*$-algebras, $JB^*$-triples and their isometric preduals.
We study the Lebesgue-Bochner discretization property of Banach spaces $Y$, which ensures that the Bourgain's discretization modulus for $Y$ has a good lower estimate. We prove that there exist spaces that do not have the Lebesgue-Bochner discretization property, and we give a class of examples of spaces that enjoy this property.
We provide a Laakso construction to prove that the property of having an equivalent norm with the property $(β)$ of Rolewicz is qualitatively preserved via surjective uniform quotient mappings between separable Banach spaces. On the other hand, we show that the $(β)$-modulus is not quantitatively preserved via such a map by exhibiting two uniformly homeomorphic Banach spaces that do not have $(β)$-moduli of the same power-type even under renorming.
