This is an announcement for the paper "Sublinear Higson corona and Lipschitz extensions" by M.Cencelj, J.Dydak, J.Smrekar, and A.Vavpetic. Abstract: The purpose of the paper is to characterize the dimension of sublinear Higson corona $\nu_L(X)$ of $X$ in terms of Lipschitz extensions of functions: Theorem: Suppose $(X,d)$ is a proper metric space. The dimension of the sublinear Higson corona $\nu_L(X)$ of $X$ is the smallest integer $m\ge 0$ with the following property: Any norm-preserving asymptotically Lipschitz function $f'\colon A\to \R^{m+1}$, $A\subset X$, extends to a norm-preserving asymptotically Lipschitz function $g'\colon X\to \R^{m+1}$. One should compare it to the result of Dranishnikov \cite{Dr1} who characterized the dimension of the Higson corona $\nu(X)$ of $X$ is the smallest integer $n\ge 0$ such that $\R^{n+1}$ is an absolute extensor of $X$ in the asymptotic category $\AAA$ (that means any proper asymptotically Lipschitz function $f\colon A\to \R^{n+1}$, $A$ closed in $X$, extends to a proper asymptotically Lipschitz function $f'\colon X\to \R^{n+1}$). \par In \cite{Dr1} Dranishnikov introduced the category $\tilde \AAA$ whose objects are pointed proper metric spaces $X$ and morphisms are asymptotically Lipschitz functions $f\colon X\to Y$ such that there are constants $b,c > 0$ satisfying $|f(x)|\ge c\cdot |x|-b$ for all $x\in X$. We show $\dim(\nu_L(X))\leq n$ if and only if $\R^{n+1}$ is an absolute extensor of $X$ in the category $\tilde\AAA$. \par As an application we reprove the following result of Dranishnikov and Smith \cite{DRS}: Theorem: Suppose $(X,d)$ is a proper metric space of finite asymptotic Assouad-Nagata dimension $\asdim_{AN}(X)$. If $X$ is cocompact and connected, then $\asdim_{AN}(X)$ equals the dimension of the sublinear Higson corona $\nu_L(X)$ of $X$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Uniform uncertainty principle for Bernoulli and subgaussian ensembles" by Shahar Mendelson, Alain Pajor and Nicole Tomczak-Jaegermann. Abstract: We present a simple solution to a question posed by Candes, Romberg and Tao on the uniform uncertainty principle for Bernoulli random matrices. More precisely, we show that a rectangular k*n random subgaussian matrix (with k < n) has the property that by arbitrarily extracting any m (with m < k) columns, the resulting submatrices are arbitrarily close to (multiples of) isometries of a Euclidean space. We obtain the optimal estimate for m as a function of k,n and the degree of "closeness" to an isometry. We also give a short and self-contained solution of the reconstruction problem for sparse vectors.

This is an announcement for the paper "Infinite asymptotic games" by Christian Rosendal. Abstract: We study infinite asymptotic games in Banach spaces with an 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 $\ell_p$ sums of finite dimensional spaces, extending results of Odell and Schlumprecht, and to study various notions of homogeneity of bases and Banach spaces. These results are related to questions of rapidity of subsequence extraction from normalised weakly null sequences.

This is an announcement for the paper "On strongly asymptotic $\ell_p$ spaces and minimality" by S. J. Dilworth, V. Ferenczi, Denka Kutzarova and E. Odell. Abstract: We study Banach spaces X with a strongly asymptotic l_p basis (any disjointly supported finite set of vectors far enough out with respect to the basis behaves like l_p) which are minimal (X embeds into every infinite dimensional subspace). In particular such spaces embed into l_p.

This is an announcement for the paper "Containment of $\c_{\bf 0}$ and $\ell_{\bf 1}$ in $\Pi_{\bf 1} \hbox{\bf (}\E\hbox{\bf ,}\ \F\hbox{\bf )}$" by Mohsen Alimohammady. Abstract: Suppose $\Pi_{1} (E, F)$ is the space of all absolutely 1-summing operators between two Banach spaces $E$ and $F$. We show that if $F$ has a copy of $c_{0}$, then $\Pi_{1} (E, F)$ will have a copy of $c_{0}$, and under some conditions if $E$ has a copy of $\ell_{1}$ then $\Pi_{1} (E, F)$ would have a complemented copy of $\ell_{1}$.

This is an announcement for the paper "On Gateaux differentiability of pointwise Lipschitz mappings" by Jakub Duda. Abstract: We prove that for every function $f:X\to Y$, where $X$ is a separable Banach space and $Y$ is a Banach space with RNP, there exists a set $A\in\tilde\mcA$ such that $f$ is Gateaux differentiable at all $x\in S(f)\setminus A$, where $S(f)$ is the set of points where $f$ is pointwise-Lipschitz. This improves a result of Bongiorno. As a corollary, we obtain that every $K$-monotone function on a separable Banach space is Hadamard differentiable outside of a set belonging to $\tilde\mcC$; this improves a result due to Borwein and Wang. Another corollary is that if $X$ is Asplund, $f:X\to\R$ cone monotone, $g:X\to\R$ continuous convex, then there exists a point in $X$, where $f$ is Hadamard differentiable and $g$ is Frechet differentiable.

This is an announcement for the paper "Basic topological and geometric properties of Cesaro--Orlicz spaces" by Yunan Cui, Henryk Hudzik, Narin Petrot, Suthep Suantai and Alicja Szymaszkiewicz. Abstract: Necessary and sufficient conditions under which the Cesaro--Orlicz sequence space $\cfi$ is nontrivial are presented. It is proved that for the Luxemburg norm, Cesaro--Orlicz spaces $\cfi$ have the Fatou property. Consequently, the spaces are complete. It is also proved that the subspace of order continuous elements in $\cfi$ can be defined in two ways. Finally, criteria for strict monotonicity, uniform monotonicity and rotundity (= strict convexity) of the spaces $\cfi$ are given.

This is an announcement for the paper "Volume inequalities for isotropic measures" by Erwin Lutwak, Deane Yang, and Gaoyong Zhang. Abstract: A direct approach to Ball's simplex inequality is presented. This approach, which does not use the Brascamp-Lieb inequality, also gives Barthe's characterization of the simplex for Ball's inequality and extends it from discrete to arbitrary measures. It also yields the dual inequality, along with equality conditions, and it does both for arbitrary measures.

This is an announcement for the paper "Quotient normed cones" by Oscar Valero. Abstract: Given a normed cone $(X,p)$ and a subcone $Y,$ we construct and study the quotient normed cone $(X/Y,\tilde{p})$ generated by $Y$. In particular we characterize the bicompleteness of $(X/Y,\tilde{p})$ in terms of the bicompleteness of $(X,p),$ and prove that the dual quotient cone $((X/Y)^{*},\|\cdot \|_{\tilde{p},u})$ can be identified as a distinguished subcone of the dual cone $(X^{*},\|\cdot \|_{p,u})$. Furthermore, some parts of the theory are presented in the general setting of the space $CL(X,Y)$ of all continuous linear mappings from a normed cone $(X,p)$ to a normed cone $(Y,q),$ extending several well-known results related to open continuous linear mappings between normed linear spaces.
