Uncountable sets of unit vectors that are separated by more than 1

Tomasz Kania, Tomasz Kochanek (2016)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let X be a Banach space. We study the circumstances under which there exists an uncountable set 𝓐 ⊂ X of unit vectors such that ||x-y|| > 1 for any distinct x,y ∈ 𝓐. We prove that such a set exists if X is quasi-reflexive and non-separable; if X is additionally super-reflexive then one can have ||x-y|| ≥ slant 1 + ε for some ε > 0 that depends only on X. If K is a non-metrisable compact, Hausdorff space, then the unit sphere of X = C(K) also contains such a subset; if moreover...

Ball remotal subspaces of Banach spaces

Pradipta Bandyopadhyay, Bor-Luh Lin, T. S. S. R. K. Rao (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study Banach spaces X with subspaces Y whose unit ball is densely remotal in X. We show that for several classes of Banach spaces, the unit ball of the space of compact operators is densely remotal in the space of bounded operators. We also show that for several classical Banach spaces, the unit ball is densely remotal in the duals of higher even order. We show that for a separable remotal set E ⊆ X, the set of Bochner integrable functions with values in E is a remotal set in L¹(μ,X). ...

Metric spaces with the small ball property

Ehrhard Behrends, Vladimir M. Kadets (2001)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

A metric space (M,d) is said to have the small ball property (sbp) if for every ε₀ > 0 it is possible to write M as the union of a sequence (B(xₙ,rₙ)) of closed balls such that the rₙ are smaller than ε₀ and lim rₙ = 0. We study permanence properties and examples of sbp. The main results of this paper are the following: 1. Bounded convex closed sets in Banach spaces have sbp only if they are compact. 2. Precisely the finite-dimensional Banach spaces have sbp. (More generally: a complete...

Almost ball remotal subspaces in Banach spaces

Tanmoy Paul (2012)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We investigate almost ball remotal and ball remotal subspaces of Banach spaces. Several subspaces of the classical Banach spaces are identified having these properties. Some stability results for these properties are also proved.

On a decomposition of Banach spaces

Jakub Duda (2007)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

By using D. Preiss' approach to a construction from a paper by J. Matoušek and E. Matoušková, and some results of E. Matoušková, we prove that we can decompose a separable Banach space with modulus of convexity of power type p as a union of a ball small set (in a rather strong symmetric sense) and a set which is Aronszajn null. This improves an earlier unpublished result of E. Matoušková. As a corollary, in each separable Banach space with modulus of convexity of power type p, there...
