We find a natural class of transformations ("flattened perturbations") of a norming M-basis in a Banach space X, which give a strong norming M-basis in X. This simplifies and generalizes the positive answer to the "strong M-basis problem" solved by P. Terenzi. We also show that in general one cannot achieve uniformly minimality applying standard transformations to a given norming M-basis, despite of the existence in X a uniformly minimal strong M-bases.
We prove that the unit sphere of every infinite-dimensional uniformly convex Banach space with modulus of convexity $δ$ contains a $(1+\frac12δ(\frac23))$-separated sequence.
In this paper, we prove some theorems related to properties of generalized symmetric hybrid mappings in Banach spaces. Using Banach limits, we prove a fixed point theorem for symmetric generalized hybrid mappings in Banach spaces. Moreover, we prove some weak convergence theorems for such mappings by using Ishikawa iteration method in a uniformly convex Banach space.
For $1<p\le \infty$, we show the existence of a Banach space which is both injectively and surjectively universal for the class of all separable Banach spaces with an equivalent $p$-asymptotically uniformly smooth norm. We prove that this class is analytic complete in the class of separable Banach spaces. These results extend previous works by Kalton, Werner and Kurka in the case $p=\infty$.
These notes concern the nonlinear geometry of Banach spaces, asymptotic uniform smoothness and several Banach-Saks-like properties. We study the existence of certain concentration inequalities in asymptotically uniformly smooth Banach spaces as well as weakly sequentially continuous coarse (Lipschitz) embeddings into those spaces. Some results concerning the descriptive set theoretical complexity of those properties are also obtained. We finish the paper with a list of open problem.
Let X be a real uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space and C a nonempty closed and convex subset of X. Let Pc from X to C denote the (standard) metric projection operator. In this paper, we define the Gateaux directional differentiability of Pc. We investigate some properties of the Gateaux directional differentiability of Pc. In particular, if C is a closed ball or a closed and convex cone (including proper closed subspaces), then, we give the exact representations of the directional derivatives of Pc. Finally, we define the concept of p-q uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Ban…
We show that there exists a separable reflexive Banach space into which every separable uniformly convex Banach space isomorphically embeds. This solves a problem of J. Bourgain. We also give intrinsic characterizations of separable reflexive Banach spaces which embed into a reflexive space with a block $q$-Hilbertian and/or a block $p$-Besselian finite dimensional decomposition.
Let $X$ be an infinite dimensional uniformly smooth Banach space. We prove that $X$ contains an infinite equilateral set. That is, there exists a constant $λ>0$ and an infinite sequence $(x_i)_{i=1}^\infty\subset X$ such that $\|x_i-x_j\|=λ$ for all $i\neq j$.
We provide a short characterization of $p$-asymptotic uniform smoothability and asymptotic uniform flatenability of operators and of Banach spaces. We use these characterizations to show that many asymptotic uniform smoothness properties pass to injective tensor products of operators and of Banach spaces. In particular, we prove that the injective tensor product of two asymptotically uniformly smooth Banach spaces is asymptotically uniformly smooth. We prove that for $1<p<\infty$, the class of $p$-asymptotically uniformly smoothable operators can be endowed with an ideal norm making this class…
A {\em hereditarily indecomposable (or H.I.)} Banach space is an infinite dimensional Banach space such that no subspace can be written as the topological sum of two infinite dimensional subspaces. As an easy consequence, no such space can contain an unconditional basic sequence. This notion was first introduced in 1993 by T.Gowers and B.Maurey, who constructed the first known example of a hereditarily indecomposable space. Gowers-Maurey space is reflexive, however it is not uniformly convex. In this article, we provide an example of a uniformly convex hereditarily indecomposable space, using …
In this paper we obtain new characterizations of the uniformly convex and smooth Banach spaces. These characterizations are established by using Lp-boundedness properties of Littlewood-Paley functions and area integrals associated with heat semigroups and involving fractional derivatives. Our results apply for instance by considering the heat semigroups defined by Hermite and Laguerre operators that do not satisfy the Markovian property.
We study some properties of the randomized series and their applications to the geometric structure of Banach spaces. For $n\ge 2$ and $1<p<\infty$, it is shown that $\ell_\infty^n$ is representable in a Banach space $X$ if and only if it is representable in the Lebesgue-Bochner $L_p(X)$. New criteria for various convexity properties in Banach spaces are also studied. It is proved that a Banach lattice $E$ is uniformly monotone if and only if its $p$-convexification $E^{(p)}$ is uniformly convex and that a Köthe function space $E$ is upper locally uniformly monotone if and only if its $p$-conv…
We introduce a property of Banach spaces called uniform convex-transitivity, which falls between almost transitivity and convex-transitivity. We will provide examples of uniformly convex-transitive spaces. This property behaves nicely in connection with some Banach-valued function spaces. As a consequence, we obtain new examples of convex-transitive Banach spaces.
We present a generalization of the Radon-Riesz property to sequences of continuous functions with values in uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach spaces.
The class J of simultaneously almost transitive, uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach spaces is characterized in terms of convex-transitivity and weak geometry of the norm.
We study the 'no-dimension' analogue of Carath{é}odory's theorem in Banach spaces. We prove such a result together with its colorful version for uniformly smooth Banach spaces. It follows that uniform smoothness leads to a greedy de-randomization of Maurey's classical lemma \cite{pisier1980remarques}, which is itself a 'no-dimension' analogue of Carath{é}odory's theorem with a probabilistic proof. We find the asymptotically tight upper bound on the deviation of the convex hull from the $k$-convex hull of a bounded set in $L_p$ with $1 < p \leq 2$ and get asymptotically the same bound as in Mau…
In this note, we extend to the setting of quasi-reflexive spaces a classical result of N. Kalton and L. Randrianarivony on the coarse Lipschitz structure of reflexive and asymptotically uniformly smooth Banach spaces. As an application, we show for instance, that for $1\le q<p$, a $q$-asymptotically uniformly convex Banach space does not coarse Lipschitz embed into a $p$-asymptotically uniformly smooth quasi-reflexive Banach space. This extends a recent result of B.M. Braga.
We show that on separable Banach spaces admitting a separating polynomial, any uniformly continuous, bounded, real-valued function can be uniformly approximated by Lipschitz, analytic maps on bounded sets.
We prove that a Banach lattice $X$ which does not contain the $l^n_{\infty}$-uniformly has an equivalent norm which is uniformly Kadec-Klee for a natural topology $τ$ on $X$. In case the Banach lattice is purely atomic, the topology $τ$ is the coordinatewise convergence topology.
In this paper, we investigate a new notion of accretive mappings called generalized $αβ$-$H((.,.),(.,.))$-mixed accretive mappings in Banach spaces. We extend the concept of proximal-point mappings associated with generalized $m$-accretive mappings to the generalized $αβ$-$H((.,.),(.,.))$-mixed accretive mappings and prove that the proximal-point mapping associated with generalized $αβ$-$H((.,.),(.,.))$-mixed accretive mapping is single-valued and Lipschitz continuous. Some examples are given to justify the definition of generalized $αβ$-$H((.,.),(.,.))$-mixed accretive mappings. Further, by u…
In this paper, the Pazy's Fixed Point Theorems of monotone $α-$nonexpansive mapping $T$ are proved in a uniformly convex Banach space $E$ with the partial order "$\leq$". That is, we obtain that the fixed point set of $T$ with respect to the partial order "$\leq$" is nonempty whenever the Picard iteration $\{T^nx_0\}$ is bounded for some initial point $x_0$ with $x_0\leq Tx_0$ or $Tx_0\leq x_0$. When restricting the demain of $T$ to the cone $P$, a monotone $α-$nonexpansive mapping $T$ has at least a fixed point if and only if the Picard iteration $\{T^n0\}$ is bounbed. Furthermore, with the h…
Following results of Bourgain and Gorelik we show that the spaces $\ell_p$, $1<p<\infty$, as well as some related spaces have the following uniqueness property: If $X$ is a Banach space uniformly homeomorphic to one of these spaces then it is linearly isomorphic to the same space. We also prove that if a $C(K)$ space is uniformly homeomorphic to $c_0$, then it is isomorphic to $c_0$. We show also that there are Banach spaces which are uniformly homeomorphic to exactly $2$ isomorphically distinct spaces.
It is shown that a Banach space with locally uniformly convex dual admits an equivalent norm which is itself locally uniformly convex. It follows that on any such space all continuous real-valued functions may be uniformly approximated by C^1 functions.
We continue the study of Uniformly Finitely Extensible Banach spaces (in short, UFO) initiated in Moreno-Plichko, \emph{On automorphic Banach spaces}, Israel J. Math. 169 (2009) 29--45 and Castillo-Plichko, \emph{Banach spaces in various positions.} J. Funct. Anal. 259 (2010) 2098-2138. We show that they have the Uniform Approximation Property of Pełczyński 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 $c_0(I)$ and $\ell_2(I)$?-- showing that a s…
We construct a locally finite graph and a bounded geometry metric space which do not admit a quasi-isometric embedding into any uniformly convex Banach space. Connections with the geometry of $c_0$ and superreflexivity are discussed.
In this paper we show that a countable, residually amenable group admits a proper isometric affine action on some uniformly convex Banach space if and only if one (or equivalently, all) of its box families admits a fibred cofinitely-coarse embedding into some uniformly convex Banach space.
We prove that if X is an infinite dimensional Banach lattice with a weak unit then there exists a probability space (Omega, Sigma,mu) so that the unit sphere S(L_1(Omega, Sigma, mu) is uniformly homeomorphic to the unit sphere S(X) if and only if X does not contain l_{infty}^n's uniformly.
In this paper, we study the coarse embedding into Banach space. We proved that under certain conditions, the property of embedding into Banach space can be preserved under taking the union the metric spaces. For a group $G$ strongly relative hyperbolic to a subgroup $H$, we proved that if $H$ admits a coarse embedding into a uniformly convex Banach space, so is $B(n)=\{g\in G|\abs{g}_{S\cup\mathscr{H}}\leq n\}$.
In these notes, we study the relation between uniform and coarse embeddings between Banach spaces. In order to understand this relation better, we also look at the problem of when a coarse embedding can be assumed to be topological. Among other results, we show that if a Banach space $X$ uniformly embeds into a minimal Banach space $Y$, then $X$ simultaneously coarsely and uniformly embeds into $Y$, and if a Banach space $X$ coarsely embeds into a minimal Banach space $Y$, then $X$ simultaneously coarsely and homeomorphically embeds into $Y$ by a map with uniformly continuous inverse.
We show some new results about tilings in Banach spaces. A tiling of a Banach space $X$ is a covering by closed sets with non-empty interior so that they have pairwise disjoint interiors. If moreover the tiles have inner radii uniformly bounded from below, and outer radii uniformly bounded from above, we say that the tiling is normal. In 2010 Preiss constructed a convex normal tiling of the separable Hilbert space. For Banach spaces with Schauder basis we will show that Preiss' result is still true with starshaped tiles instead of convex ones. Also, whenever $X$ is uniformly convex we give pre…
For each ordinal $ξ$ and each $1<p<\infty$, we offer a natural, ismorphic characterization of those spaces and operators which admit an equivalent $ξ$-$p$-asymptotically uniformly smooth norm. We also introduce the notion of $ξ$-asymptotically uniformly flat norms and provide an isomorphic characterization of those spaces and operators which admit an equivalent $ξ$-asymptotically uniformly flat norm. Given a compact, Hausdorff space $K$, we prove an optimal renormong theorem regarding the $ξ$-asymptotic smoothness of $C(K)$ in terms of the Cantor-Bendixson index of $K$. We also prove that for …
In this paper we investigate some reflexivity-type properties of separable measurable Banach bundles over a $σ$-finite measure space. Our two main results are the following: - The fibers of a bundle are uniformly convex (with a common modulus of convexity) if and only if the space of its $L^p$-sections is uniformly convex for every $p\in(1,\infty)$. - The fibers of a bundle are reflexive if and only if the space of its $L^p$-sections is reflexive. These results generalise the well-known corresponding ones for Lebesgue-Bochner spaces.
The concept of uniform convexity of a Banach space was generalized to linear operators between Banach spaces and studied by Beauzamy [1976]. Under this generalization, a Banach space X is uniformly convex if and only if its identity map I_X is. Pisier showed that uniformly convex Banach spaces have martingale type p for some p>1. We show that this fact is in general not true for linear operators. To remedy the situation, we introduce the new concept of martingale subtype and show, that it is equivalent, also in the operator case, to the existence of an equivalent uniformly convex norm on X. In…
This note corrects a gap and improves results in an earlier paper by the first named author. More precisely, it is shown that on weakly compactly generated Banach spaces X which admit a C^{p} smooth norm, one can uniformly approximate uniformly continuous functions f:X->R by Lipschitz, C^{p} smooth functions. Moreover, there is a constant C>1 so that any L-Lipschitz function f:X->R can be uniformly approximated by CL-Lipschitz, C^{p} smooth functions. This provides a `Lipschitz version' of the classical approximation results of Godefroy, Troyanski, Whitfield and Zizler.
Let $E$ be a uniformly smooth and uniformly convex real Banach space and $E^*$ be its dual space. Suppose $A : E\rightarrow E^*$ is bounded, strongly monotone and satisfies the range condition such that $A^{-1}(0)\neq \emptyset$. Inspired by Alber [2], we introduce Lyapunov functions and use the new geometric properties of Banach spaces to show the strong convergence of an iterative algorithm to the solution of $Ax=0$.
We study existence and partial regularity relative to the weighted Steiner problem in Banach spaces. We show $C^1$ regularity almost everywhere for almost minimizing sets in uniformly rotund Banach spaces whose modulus of uniform convexity verifies a Dini growth condition.
We study Banach spaces whose group of isometries acts micro-transitively on the unit sphere. We introduce a weaker property, which one-complemented subspaces inherit, that we call uniform micro-semitransitivity. We prove a number of results about both micro-transitive and uniformly micro-semitransitive spaces, including that they are uniformly convex and uniformly smooth, and that they form a self-dual class. To this end, we relate the fact that the group of isometries acts micro-transitively with a property of operators called the pointwise Bishop-Phelps-Bollobás property and use some known r…
In this paper, we prove the existence of fixed points of mappings satisfying the condition (Da), a kind of generalized nonexpansive mappings, on a weakly compact convex subset in a Banach space satisfying Opial's condition. And we use Sahu([6]) and Thakur([10])'s iterative scheme to establish several convergence theorems in uniformly convex Banach spaces and give an example to show that this scheme converges faster than the scheme in [1]
We prove two theorems about differentiable functions on the Banach space C(K), where K is compact. (i) If C(K) admits a non-trivial function of class C^m and of bounded support, then all continuous real-valued functions on C(K) may be uniformly approximated by functions of class C^m. (ii) If C(K) admits an equivalent norm with locally uniformly convex dual norm, then C(K) admits an equivalent norm which is of class C^infty (except at 0).
In these notes, we study nonlinear embeddings between Banach spaces which are also weakly sequentially continuous. In particular, our main result implies that if a Banach space $X$ coarsely (resp. uniformly) embeds into a Banach space $Y$ by a weakly sequentially continuous map, then every spreading model $(e_n)_n$ of a normalized weakly null sequence in $X$ satisfies \[\|e_1+\ldots+e_k\|_{\overlineδ_Y}\lesssim\|e_1+\ldots+e_k\|_S,\] where $\overlineδ_Y$ is the modulus of asymptotic uniform convexity of $Y$. Among other results, we obtain Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ so that $X$ coarsely (resp. u…
We extend a precise renorming result of Godefroy, Kalton, and Lancien regarding asymptotically uniformly smooth norms of separable Banach spaces with Szlenk index $ω$. For every ordinal $ξ$, we characterize the operators, and therefore the Banach spaces, which admit a $ξ$-asymptotically uniformly smooth norm with power type modulus and compute for those operators the best possible exponent in terms of the values of $Sz_ξ(\cdot, \varepsilon)$. We also introduce the $ξ$-Szlenk power type and investigate ideal and factorization properties of classes associated with the $ξ$-Szlenk power type.
In this paper, we study the coarse Lipschitz geometry of Banach spaces with several asymptotic properties. Specifically, we look at asymptotically uniformly smoothness and convexity, and several distinct Banach-Saks-like properties. Among other results, we characterize the Banach spaces which are either coarsely or uniformly homeomorphic to $T^{p_1}\oplus \ldots \oplus T^{p_n}$, where each $T^{p_j}$ denotes the $p_j$-convexification of the Tsirelson space, for $p_1,\ldots,p_n\in (1,\ldots, \infty)$, and $2\not\in\{p_1,\ldots ,p_n\}$. We obtain applications to the coarse Lipschitz geometry of t…
We show that every infinite-dimensional Banach space with separable dual admits an equivalent norm which is weakly locally uniformly rotund but not locally uniformly rotund.
We study a convergence criterion which generalises the notion of being monotonically decreasing, and introduce a quantitative version of this criterion, a so called metastable rate of asymptotic decreasingness. We then present a concrete application in the fixed point theory of uniformly convex Banach spaces, in which we carry out a quantitative analysis of a convergence proof of Kirk and Sims. More precisely, we produce a rate of metastability (in the sense of Tao) for the Picard iterates of mappings T which satisfy a variant of the convergence criterion, and whose fixed point set has nonempt…
We prove strong convergence theorems of some iterative algorithms in a real uniformly smooth Banach space. The results presented extend, generalize and improve the corresponding results recently announced by many authors.
