-measures in Minkowski planes.
We characterize the UMD-property of a Banach space X by sequences of ideal norms associated with trigonometric orthonormal systems. The asymptotic behavior of those numerical parameters can be used to decide whether X is a UMD-space. Moreover, if this is not the case, we obtain a measure that shows how far X is from being a UMD-space. The main result is that all described sequences are not only simultaneously bounded but are also asymptotically equivalent.
We use Tsirelson’s Banach space ([2]) to define an P-ideal which refutes a conjecture of Mazur and Kechris (see [12, 9, 8]).
Se introducen los ideales de operadores que admiten extensión o levantamiento y se presenta una nueva aproximación al estudio de la escisión de sucesiones exactas cortas de espacios de Banach. Se considera la maximalidad de estos ideales y se investiga si son cerrados respecto de los límites puntuales acotados. Se resumen algunos ejemplos y se clarifica el papel de los espacios L1 y L∞.
We characterize the approximation property of Banach spaces and their dual spaces by the position of finite rank operators in the space of compact operators. In particular, we show that a Banach space E has the approximation property if and only if for all closed subspaces F of , the space ℱ(F,E) of finite rank operators from F to E has the n-intersection property in the corresponding space K(F,E) of compact operators for all n, or equivalently, ℱ(F,E) is an ideal in K(F,E).
We show that a Banach space has the weakly compact approximation property if and only if each continuous Banach-valued polynomial on can be uniformly approximated on compact sets by homogeneous polynomials which are members of the ideal of homogeneous polynomials generated by weakly compact linear operators. An analogous result is established also for the compact approximation property.
A Banach space contains either a minimal subspace or a continuum of incomparable subspaces. General structure results for analytic equivalence relations are applied in the context of Banach spaces to show that if E₀ does not reduce to isomorphism of the subspaces of a space, in particular, if the subspaces of the space admit a classification up to isomorphism by real numbers, then any subspace with an unconditional basis is isomorphic to its square and hyperplanes, and the unconditional basis has...
Let L be a normal Banach sequence space such that every element in L is the limit of its sections and let E = ind En be a separated inductive limit of the locally convex spaces. Then ind L(En) is a topological subspace of L(E).
La théorie des corps convexes a commencé à la fin du xixe siècle avec l’inégalité de Brunn, généralisée ensuite sous la forme de l’inégalité de Brunn-Minkowski-Lusternik, qui s’applique à des ensembles non convexes. Ce thème a depuis longtemps des contacts avec les problèmes isopérimétriques et avec des inégalités d’Analyse telle que les plongements de Sobolev. On développera quelques aspects plus récents des inégalités géométriques, dont certains sont liés à la technique du transport de mesure,...
We extend Kahane-Khinchin type inequalities to the case p > -2. As an application we verify the slicing problem for the unit balls of finite-dimensional spaces that embed in , p > -2.
We study infinite asymptotic games in Banach spaces with a finite-dimensional decomposition (F.D.D.) and prove that analytic games are determined by characterising precisely the conditions for the players to have winning strategies. These results are applied to characterise spaces embeddable into sums of finite dimensional spaces, extending results of Odell and Schlumprecht, and to study various notions of homogeneity of bases and Banach spaces. The results are related to questions of rapidity...
We use methods of infinite asymptotic games to characterize subspaces of Banach spaces with a finite-dimensional decomposition (FDD) and prove new theorems on operators. We consider a separable Banach space X, a set of sequences of finite subsets of X and the -game. We prove that if satisfies some specific stability conditions, then Player I has a winning strategy in the -game if and only if X has a skipped-blocking decomposition each of whose skipped-blockings belongs to . This result implies that...
Sets of constant width appear as a curiosity in the context of finite-dimensional Euclidean spaces. These sets are convex bodies of such an space with the property that the distance between any two distinct parallel supporting hyperplanes is constant. The easiest example of a set of constant width which is not a ball is the so called Reuleaux triangle in the Euclidean plane. This is the intersection of three closed discs of radius r, whose centers are the vertices of an equilateral triangle of side...
