An almost nowhere Fréchet smooth norm on superreflexive spaces
Every separable infinite-dimensional superreflexive Banach space admits an equivalent norm which is Fréchet differentiable only on an Aronszajn null set.

The Banach-Saks property and Haar null sets
A characterization of Haar null sets in the sense of Christensen is given. Using it, we show that if the dual of a Banach space has the Banach-Saks property, then closed and convex subsets of with empty interior are Haar null.
Concerning weak-extreme points
Every separable nonreflexive Banach space admits an equivalent norm such that the set of the weak-extreme points of the unit ball is discrete.
Reflexivity and approximate fixed points
A Banach space X is reflexive if and only if every bounded sequence xₙ in X contains a norm attaining subsequence. This means that it contains a subsequence for which is attained at some f in the dual unit sphere . A Banach space X is not reflexive if and only if it contains a normalized sequence xₙ with the property that for every , there exists such that . Combining this with a result of Shafrir, we conclude that every infinite-dimensional Banach space contains an unbounded closed convex...
A note on intersections of non-Haar null sets
We show that in every Polish, abelian, non-locally compact group G there exist non-Haar null sets A and B such that the set {g ∈ G; (g+A) ∩ B is non-Haar null} is empty. This answers a question posed by Christensen.

Remarks on continuous images of Radon-Nikodým compacta
A family of compact spaces containing continuous images of Radon-Nikod’ym compacta is introduced and studied. A family of Banach spaces containing subspaces of Asplund generated (i.e., GSG) spaces is introduced and studied. Further, for a continuous image of a Radon-Nikod’ym compact we prove: If is totally disconnected, then it is Radon-Nikod’ym compact. If is adequate, then it is even Eberlein compact.
