Obstacles to bounded recovery.
We transfer a renorming method of transfer, due to G. Godefroy, from weakly compactly generated Banach spaces to Vašák, i.e., weakly K-countably determined Banach spaces. Thus we obtain a new construction of a locally uniformly rotund norm on a Vašák space. A further cultivation of this method yields the new result that every dual Vašák space admits a dual locally uniformly rotund norm.
Let be a closed subset of and let denote the metric projection (closest point mapping) of onto in -norm. A classical result of Asplund states that is (Fréchet) differentiable almost everywhere (a.e.) in in the Euclidean case . We consider the case and prove that the th component of is differentiable a.e. if and satisfies Hölder condition of order if .
Let ℛ denote some kind of rotundity, e.g., the uniform rotundity. Let X admit an ℛ-norm and let Y be a reflexive subspace of X with some ℛ-norm ∥·∥. Then we are able to extend ∥·∥ from Y to an ℛ-norm on X.
A class of convex functions where the sets of subdifferentials behave like the unit ball of the dual space of an Asplund space is found. These functions, which we called Asplund functions also possess some stability properties. We also give a sufficient condition for a function to be an Asplund function in terms of the upper-semicontinuity of the subdifferential map.
If ξ is a countable ordinal and (fk) a sequence of real-valued functions we define the repeated averages of order ξ of (fk). By using a partition theorem of Nash-Williams for families of finite subsets of positive integers it is proved that if ξ is a countable ordinal then every sequence (fk) of real-valued functions has a subsequence (f'k) such that either every sequence of repeated averages of order ξ of (f'k) converges uniformly to zero or no sequence of repeated averages of order ξ of (f'k)...
A Banach space X is an M-ideal in its bidual if the relation ||f + w|| = ||f|| + ||w||holds for every f in X* and every w in X ⊥.The class of the Banach spaces which are M-ideals in their biduals, in short, the class of M-embedded spaces, has been carefully investigated, in particular by A. Lima, G. Godefroy and the West Berlin School. The spaces c0(I) -I any set- equipped with their canonical norm belong to this class, which also contains e.g. certain spaces K(E,F) of compact operators between...
The paper begins with a self-contained and short development of Bárány’s theorems of Carathéodory and Helly type in finite-dimensional spaces together with some new variants. In the second half the possible generalizations of these results to arbitrary Banach spaces are investigated. The Carathéodory-Bárány theorem has a counterpart in arbitrary dimensions under suitable uniform compactness or uniform boundedness conditions. The proper generalization of the Helly-Bárány theorem reads as follows:...
