This is an announcement for the paper "On the maximization of a class of functionals on convex regions, and the characterization of the farthest convex set" by Evans Harrell and Antoine Henrot. Abstract: We consider a family of functionals $J$ to be maximized over the planar convex sets $K$ for which the perimeter and Steiner point have been fixed. Assuming that $J$ is the integral of a quadratic expression in the support function $h$, we show that the maximizer is always either a triangle or a line segment (which can be considered as a collapsed triangle). Among the concrete consequences of the main theorem is the fact that, given any convex body $K_1$ of finite perimeter, the set in the class we consider that is farthest away in the sense of the $L^2$ distance is always a line segment. We also prove the same property for the Hausdorff distance.

This is an announcement for the paper "The infinite dimensional restricted invertibility theorem" by Peter G. Casazza and Goetz E. Pfander. Abstract: The 1987 Bourgain-Tzafriri Restricted Invertibility Theorem is one of the most celebrated theorems in analysis. At the time of their work, the authors raised the question of a possible infinite dimensional version of the theorem. In this paper, we will give a quite general definition of restricted invertibility for operators on infinite dimensional Hilbert spaces based on the notion of "density" from frame theory. We then prove that localized Bessel systems have large subsets which are Riesz basic sequences. As a consequence, we prove the strongest possible form of the infinite dimensional restricted invertibility theorem for $\ell_1$-localized operators and for Gabor frames with generating function in the Feichtinger Algebra. For our calculations, we introduce a new notion of "density" which has serious advantages over the standard form because it is independent of index maps - and hence has much broader application. We then show that in the setting of the restricted invertibility theorem, this new density becomes equivalent to the standard density.

This is an announcement for the paper "$L_p$ compression, traveling salesmen, and stable walks" by Assaf Naor and Yuval Peres. Abstract: We show that if $H$ is a group of polynomial growth whose growth rate is at least quadratic then the $L_p$ compression of the wreath product $\Z\bwr H$ equals $\max{\frac{1}{p},{1/2}}$. We also show that the $L_p$ compression of $\Z\bwr \Z$ equals $\max{\frac{p}{2p-1},\frac23}$ and the $L_p$ compression of $(\Z\bwr\Z)_0$ (the zero section of $\Z\bwr \Z$, equipped with the metric induced from $\Z\bwr \Z$) equals $\max{\frac{p+1}{2p},\frac34}$. The fact that the Hilbert compression exponent of $\Z\bwr\Z$ equals $\frac23$ while the Hilbert compression exponent of $(\Z\bwr\Z)_0$ equals $\frac34$ is used to show that there exists a Lipschitz function $f:(\Z\bwr\Z)_0\to L_2$ which cannot be extended to a Lipschitz function defined on all of $\Z\bwr \Z$.

This is an announcement for the paper "On some random thin sets of integers" by Daniel Li, Herve Queffelec, Luis Rodriguez-Piazza. Abstract: We show how different random thin sets of integers may have different behaviour. First, using a recent deviation inequality of Boucheron, Lugosi and Massart, we give a simpler proof of one of our results in {\sl Some new thin sets of integers in Harmonic Analysis, Journal d'Analyse Math\'ematique 86 (2002), 105--138}, namely that there exist $\frac{4}{3}$-Rider sets which are sets of uniform convergence and $\Lambda (q)$-sets for all $q < \infty $, but which are not Rosenthal sets. In a second part, we show, using an older result of Kashin and Tzafriri that, for $p > \frac{4}{3}$, the $p$-Rider sets which we had constructed in that paper are almost surely ot of uniform convergence.

This is an announcement for the paper "Comparison of matrix norms on bipartite spaces" by Christopher King and Nilufer Koldan. Abstract: Two non-commutative versions of the classical L^q(L^p) norm on the algebra of (mn)x(mn) matrices are compared. The first norm was defined recently by Carlen and Lieb, as a byproduct of their analysis of certain convex functions on matrix spaces. The second norm was defined by Pisier and others using results from the theory of operator spaces. It is shown that the second norm is upper bounded by a constant multiple of the first for all 1 <= p <= 2, q >= 1. In one case (2 = p < q) it is also shown that there is no such lower bound, and hence that the norms are inequivalent. It is conjectured that the norms are inequivalent in all cases.
