On every subspace of which contains an uncountable -independent set, we construct equivalent norms whose Banach-Mazur distance is as large as required. Under Martin’s Maximum Axiom (MM), it follows that the Banach-Mazur diameter of the set of equivalent norms on every infinite-dimensional subspace of is infinite. This provides a partial answer to a question asked by Johnson and Odell.
We consider several greedy conditions for bases in Banach spaces that arise naturally in the study of the Thresholding Greedy Algorithm (TGA). In particular, we continue the study of almost greedy bases begun in [3]. We show that almost greedy bases are essentially optimal for n-term approximation when the TGA is modified to include a Chebyshev approximation. We prove that if a Banach space X has a basis and contains a complemented subspace with a symmetric basis and finite cotype then X has an...
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 has the asymptotic (P) property (which is weaker than the condition WCS(Y) > 1), then X ⊕ 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.
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 X ⊕ Y with a strictly monotone norm has the weak fixed point property. The result is new even if Y is finite-dimensional.
The notion of the frame of the unit ball of Banach spaces was introduced to construct a new calculation method for the Dunkl-Williams constant. In this paper, we characterize the frame of the unit ball by using k-extreme points and extreme points of the unit ball of two-dimensional subspaces. Furthermore, we show that the frame of the unit ball is always closed, and is connected if the dimension of the space is not less than three. As infinite dimensional examples, the frame of the unit balls of...
We use one-dimensional differential inequalities to estimate the squareness and type of Banach spaces with modulus of convexity of power type two. The estimates obtained are sharp and the constants involved moderate.
We give an alternative proof of the stable manifold theorem as an application of the (right and left) inverse mapping theorem on a space of sequences. We investigate the diffeomorphism class of the global stable manifold, a problem which in the general Banach setting gives rise to subtle questions about the possibility of extending germs of diffeomorphisms.
In this paper we define a generalized Cesàro sequence space and consider it equipped with the Luxemburg norm under which it is a Banach space, and we show that the space posses property (H) and property (G), and it is rotund, where is a bounded sequence of positive real numbers with for all .
In this paper, we define the direct sum of Banach spaces X₁,X₂,..., and Xₙ and consider it equipped with the Cesàro p-norm when 1 ≤ p < ∞. We show that has the H-property if and only if each has the H-property, and has the Schur property if and only if each has the Schur property. Moreover, we also show that is rotund if and only if each is rotund.
