This is an announcement for the paper "Maps of several variables of finite total variation and Helly-type selection principles" by Vyacheslav V. Chistyakov and Yuliya V. Tretyachenko. Abstract: Given a map from a rectangle in the n-dimensional real Euclidean space into a metric semigroup, we introduce a concept of the total variation, which generalizes a similar concept due to T. H. Hildebrandt (1963) for real functions of two variables and A. S. Leonov (1998) for real functions of n variables, and study its properties. We show that the total variation has many classical properties of Jordan's variation such as the additivity, generalized triangle inequality and sequential lower semicontinuity. We prove two variants of a pointwise selection principle of Helly-type, one of which is as follows: a pointwise precompact sequence of metric semigroup valued maps on the rectangle, whose total variations are uniformly bounded, admits a pointwise convergent subsequence.

This is an announcement for the paper "Local minimality of the volume-product at the simplex" by Jaegil Kim and Shlomo Reisner. Abstract: It is proved that the simplex is a strict local minimum for the volume-product P(K)=min vol(K)vol(K^z), in the Banach-Mazur space of n-dimensional (classes of ) convex bodies. Here K^z is the polar body of K about the point z and the minimum is taken over all the points z in the interior of K. Linear local stability in the neighborhood of the simplex is proved as well. In the proof, methods that were recently introduced by Nazarov, Petrov, Ryabogin and Zvavitch are extended to the non-symmetric setting.

This is an announcement for the paper "A simple construction of almost-Euclidean subspaces of $\ell_1^N$ via tensor products" by Piotr Indyk and Stanislaw Szarek. Abstract: It has been known since 1970's that the N-dimensional $\ell_1$-space contains nearly Euclidean subspaces whose dimension is $\Omega(N)$. However, proofs of existence of such subspaces were probabilistic, hence non-constructive, which made the results not-quite-suitable for subsequently discovered applications to high-dimensional nearest neighbor search, error-correcting codes over the reals, compressive sensing and other computational problems. In this paper we present a "low-tech" scheme which, for any $a > 0$, allows to exhibit nearly Euclidean $\Omega(N)$-dimensional subspaces of $\ell_1^N$ while using only $N^a$ random bits. Our results extend and complement (particularly) recent work by Guruswami-Lee-Wigderson. Characteristic features of our approach include (1) simplicity (we use only tensor products) and (2) yielding arbitrarily small distortions, or "almost Euclidean" subspaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "A new metric invariant for Banach spaces" by F. Baudier, N. J. Kalton, and G. Lancien. Abstract: We show that if the Szlenk index of a Banach space $X$ is larger than the first infinite ordinal $\omega$ or if the Szlenk index of its dual is larger than $\omega$, then the tree of all finite sequences of integers equipped with the hyperbolic distance metrically embeds into $X$. We show that the converse is true when $X$ is assumed to be reflexive. As an application, we exhibit new classes of Banach spaces that are stable under coarse-Lipschitz embeddings and therefore under uniform homeomorphisms.

This is an announcement for the paper "A coanalytic rank on super-ergodic operators" by Mohammed Yahdi. Abstract: Techniques from Descriptive Set Theory are applied in order to study the Topological Complexity of families of operators naturally connected to ergodic operators in infinite dimensional Banach Spaces. The families of ergodic, uniform-ergodic,Cesaro-bounded and power-bounded operators are shown to be Borel sets, while the family of super-ergodic operators is shown to be either coanalytic or Borel according to specific structures of the Space. Moreover, trees and coanalytic ranks are introduced to characterize super-ergodic operators as well as spaces where the above classes of operators do not coincide.

This is an announcement for the paper "Some new thin sets of integers in Harmonic Analysis" by Daniel Li, Herve Queffelec, Luis Rodriguez-Piazza. Abstract: We randomly construct various subsets $\Lambda$ of the integers which have both smallness and largeness properties. They are small since they are very close, in various meanings, to Sidon sets: the continuous functions with spectrum in $\Lambda$ have uniformly convergent series, and their Fourier coefficients are in $\ell_p$ for all $p>1$; moreover, all the Lebesgue spaces $L^q_\Lambda$ are equal for $q<+\infty$. On the other hand, they are large in the sense that they are dense in the Bohr group and that the space of the bounded functions with spectrum in $\Lambda$ is non separable. So these sets are very different from the thin sets of integers previously known.
