This is an announcement for the paper "The Banach-Saks Property of the Banach product spaces" by Zhenglu Jiang and Xiaoyong Fu. Abstract: In this paper we first take a detail survey of the study of the Banach-Saks property of Banach spaces and then show the Banach-Saks property of the product spaces generated by a finite number of Banach spaces having the Banach-Saks property. A more general inequality for integrals of a class of composite functions is also given by using this property.

This is an announcement for the paper "The weak Banach-Saks Property of the Space $(L_\mu^p)^m$" by Zhenglu Jiang and Xiaoyong Fu. Abstract: In this paper we show the weak Banach-Saks property of the Banach vector space $(L_\mu^p)^m$ generated by $m$ $L_\mu^p$-spaces for $1\leq p<+\infty,$ where $m$ is any given natural number. When $m=1,$ this is the famous Banach-Saks-Szlenk theorem. By use of this property, we also present inequalities for integrals of functions that are the composition of nonnegative continuous convex functions on a convex set of a vector space ${\bf R}^m$ and vector-valued functions in a weakly compact subset of the space $(L_\mu^p)^m$ for $1\leq p<+\infty$ and inequalities when these vector-valued functions are in a weakly* compact subset of the product space $(L_\mu^\infty)^m$ generated by $m$ $L_\mu^\infty$-spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Poincar\'{e} type inequalities on the discrete cube and in the CAR algebra" by Limor Ben-Efraim and Francoise Lust-Piquard. Abstract: We prove Lp Poincare inequalities for functions on the discrete cube and their discrete gradient. We thus recover an exponential inequality and the concentration phenomenon for the uniform probability on the cube first obtained by Bobkov and Gotze. Inequalities involving the discrete gradient and powers of the discrete Laplacian are also considered, for the Lp norm or more general ones. Similar results hold true, replacing functions on the cube by elements of the CAR algebra and considering the annihilation operators and the number operator.

This is an announcement for the paper "Minimality properties of Tsirelson type spaces" by Denka Kutzarova, Denny Leung, Antonis Manoussakis and Wee Kee Tang. Abstract: In this paper, we study minimality properties of partly modified mixed Tsirelson spaces. A Banach space with a normalized basis (e_k) is said to be subsequentially minimal if for every normalized block basis (x_k) of (e_k), there is a further block (y_k) of (x_k) such that (y_k) is equivalent to a subsequence of (e_k). Sufficient conditions are given for a partly modified mixed Tsirelson space to be subsequentially minimal and connections with Bourgain's \ell^{1}-index are established. It is also shown that a large class of mixed Tsirelson spaces fails to be subsequentially minimal in a strong sense.

This is an announcement for the paper "A decomposition theorem for frames and the Feichtinger conjecture" by Peter G. Casazza, Gitta Kutyniok, Darrin Speegle and Janet C. Tremain. Abstract: In this paper we study the Feichtinger Conjecture in frame theory, which was recently shown to be equivalent to the 1959 Kadison-Singer Problem in $C^{*}$-Algebras. We will show that every bounded Bessel sequence can be decomposed into two subsets each of which is an arbitrarily small perturbation of a sequence with a finite orthogonal decomposition. This construction is then used to answer two open problems concerning the Feichtinger Conjecture: 1. The Feichtinger Conjecture is equivalent to the conjecture that every unit norm Bessel sequence is a finite union of frame sequences. 2. Every unit norm Bessel sequence is a finite union of sets each of which is $\omega$-independent for $\ell_2$-sequences.

This is an announcement for the paper "A characterization of subspaces and quotients of reflexive Banach spaces with unconditional basis" by W. B. Johnson and Bentuo Zheng. Abstract: We prove that the dual or any quotient of a separable reflexive Banach space with the unconditional tree property has the unconditional tree property. Then we prove that a separable reflexive Banach space with the unconditional tree property embeds into a reflexive Banach space with an unconditional basis. This solves several long standing open problems. In particular, it yields that a quotient of a reflexive Banach space with an unconditional finite dimensional decomposition embeds into a reflexive Banach space with an unconditional basis.

This is an announcement for the paper "On Lipschitz and d.c. surfaces of finite codimension in a Banach space" by Ludvek Zajivcek. Abstract: Properties of Lipschitz and d.c. surfaces of finite codimension in a Banach space, and properties of generated $\sigma$-ideals are studied. These $\sigma$-ideals naturally appear in the differentiation theory and in the abstract approximation theory. Using these properties, we improve an unpublished result of M. Heisler which gives an alternative proof of a result of D. Preiss on singular points of convex functions.
