Singlevaluedness of monotone operators on subspaces of GSG spaces

Martin Heisler (1996)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We extend Zajíček’s theorem from [Za] about points of singlevaluedness of monotone operators on Asplund spaces. Namely we prove that every monotone operator on a subspace of a Banach space containing densely a continuous image of an Asplund space (these spaces are called GSG spaces) is singlevalued on the whole space except a σ -cone supported set.

Smallest singular value of sparse random matrices

Alexander E. Litvak, Omar Rivasplata (2012)

Studia Mathematica

We extend probability estimates on the smallest singular value of random matrices with independent entries to a class of sparse random matrices. We show that one can relax a previously used condition of uniform boundedness of the variances from below. This allows us to consider matrices with null entries or, more generally, with entries having small variances. Our results do not assume identical distribution of the entries of a random matrix and help to clarify the role of the variances of the entries....

Smith's counterexample about uniform rotundity in every direction.

Manuel Fernández, Isidro Palacios (2000)

Extracta Mathematicae

It is an open question when the direct sum of normed spaces inherits uniform rotundity in every direction from the factor spaces. M. Smith [4] showed that, in general, the answer is negative. The purpose of this paper is to carry out a complete study of Smith's counterexample.

Smooth approximations without critical points

Petr Hájek, Michal Johanis (2003)

Open Mathematics

In any separable Banach space containing c 0 which admits a C k-smooth bump, every continuous function can be approximated by a C k-smooth function whose range of derivative is of the first category. Moreover, the approximation can be constructed in such a way that its derivative avoids a prescribed countable set (in particular the approximation can have no critical points). On the other hand, in a Banach space with the RNP, the range of the derivative of every smooth bounded bump contains a set...

Smooth renormings of the Lebesgue-Bochner function space L¹(μ,X)

Marián Fabian, Sebastián Lajara (2012)

Studia Mathematica

We show that, if μ is a probability measure and X is a Banach space, then the space L¹(μ,X) of Bochner integrable functions admits an equivalent Gâteaux (or uniformly Gâteaux) smooth norm provided that X has such a norm, and that if X admits an equivalent Fréchet (resp. uniformly Fréchet) smooth norm, then L¹(μ,X) has an equivalent renorming whose restriction to every reflexive subspace is Fréchet (resp. uniformly Fréchet) smooth.

Smoothness in Banach spaces. Selected problems.

Marian Fabian, Vicente Montesinos, Václav Zizler (2006)

RACSAM

This is a short survey on some recent as well as classical results and open problems in smoothness and renormings of Banach spaces. Applications in general topology and nonlinear analysis are considered. A few new results and new proofs are included. An effort has been made that a young researcher may enjoy going through it without any special pre-requisites and get a feeling about this area of Banach space theory. Many open problems of different level of difficulty are discussed. For the reader...
