This is an announcement for the paper "Thin-very tall compact scattered
spaces which are hereditarily separable" by Christina Brech and Piotr
Koszmider.
Abstract: We strengthen the property $\Delta$ of a function
$f:[\omega_2]^2\rightarrow [\omega_2]^{\leq \omega}$ considered
by Baumgartner and Shelah. This allows us to consider new types of
amalgamations in the forcing used by Rabus, Juh\'asz and Soukup to
construct thin-very tall compact scattered spaces. We consistently
obtain spaces $K$ as above where $K^n$ is hereditarily separable for each
$n\in\N$. This serves as a counterexample concerning cardinal functions
on compact spaces as well as having some applications in Banach spaces:
the Banach space $C(K)$ is an Asplund space of density $\aleph_2$ which
has no Fr\'echet smooth renorming, nor an uncountable biorthogonal system.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the density of Banach {$C(K)$}
spaces with the Grothendieck property" by Christina Brech.
Abstract: Using the method of forcing we prove that consistently
there is a Banach space of continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff
space with the Grothendieck property and with density less than the
continuum. It follows that the classical result stating that ``no
nontrivial complemented subspace of a Grothendieck $C(K)$ space is
separable'' cannot be strengthened by replacing ``is separable'' by
``has density less than that of $l_\infty$'', without using an additional
set-theoretic assumption. Such a strengthening was proved by Haydon,
Levy and Odell, assuming Martin's axiom and the negation of the continuum
hypothesis. Moreover, our example shows that certain separation properties
of Boolean algebras are quite far from the Grothendieck property.

This is an announcement for the paper "Multiresolution analysis for
compactly supported interpolating tensor product wavelets" by Tommi
Hoynalanmaa.
Abstract: We construct a one-dimensional interpolating multiresolution
analysis (MRA) of C0(R,K), K = R or K = C, and multidimensional
interpolating tensor product MRAs of the function spaces C0(Rn,K)
consisting of real or complex valued functions on Rn vanishing at infinity
and the function spaces Cu(Rn,K) consisting of bounded and uniformly
continuous functions on Rn. The theory of the tensor products of Banach
spaces is used. We also generalize the Besov space norm equivalence
result from Donoho (1992, Interpolating Wavelet Transforms) for our
n-dimensional construction.

This is an announcement for the paper "Directionally Euclidean structures
of Banach spaces" by Jarno Talponen.
Abstract: We study spaces with directionally asymptotically controlled
ellipsoids approximating the unit ball in finite-dimensions. These
ellipsoids are the unique minimum volume ellipsoids, which contain
the unit ball of the corresponding finite-dimensional subspace. The
directional control here means that we evaluate the ellipsoids with a
given functional of the dual space. The term asymptotical refers to the
fact that we take '$\limsup$' over finite-dimensional subspaces.
This leads to some isomorphic and isometric characterizations of Hilbert
spaces. An application involving Mazur's rotation problem is given. We
also discuss the complexity of the family of ellipsoids as the dimension
and geometry vary.

This is an announcement for the paper "The symmetric Radon-Nikod\'ym
property for tensor norms" by Daniel Carando and Daniel Galicer.
Abstract: We introduce the symmetric-Radon-Nikod\'ym property (sRN
property) for finitely generated s-tensor norms $\beta$ of order
$n$ and prove a Lewis type theorem for s-tensor norms with this
property. As a consequence, if $\beta$ is a projective s-tensor
norm with the sRN property, then for every Asplund space $E$, the
canonical map $\widetilde{\otimes}_{ \beta }^{n,s} E' \rightarrow
\Big(\widetilde{\otimes}_{ \beta' }^{n,s} E \Big)'$ is a metric
surjection. This can be rephrased as the isometric isomorphism
$\mathcal{Q}^{min}(E) = \mathcal{Q}(E)$ for certain polynomial ideal
$\Q$. We also relate the sRN property of an s-tensor norm with the Asplund
or Radon-Nikod\'{y}m properties of different tensor products. Similar
results for full tensor products are also given. As an application,
results concerning the ideal of $n$-homogeneous extendible polynomials are
obtained, as well as a new proof of the well known isometric isomorphism
between nuclear and integral polynomials on Asplund spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Absolutely minimal Lipschitz
extension of tree-valued mappings" by Assaf Naor and Scott Sheffield.
Abstract: We prove that every Lipschitz function from a subset of a
locally compact length space to a metric tree has a unique absolutely
minimal Lipschitz extension (AMLE). We relate these extensions to a
stochastic game called {\bf Politics} --- a generalization of a game
called {\bf Tug of War} that has been used in~\cite{PSSW09} to study
real-valued AMLEs.

This is an announcement for the paper "Concrete constructions of
non-pavable projections" by Peter G. Casazza, Matt Fickus, Dustin Mixon
and Janet C. Tremain.
Abstract: It is known that the paving conjecture fails for $2$-paving
projections with constant diagonal $1/2$. But the proofs of this fact are
existence proofs. We will give concrete examples of these projections
and projections with constant diagonal $1/r$ which are not $r$-pavable
in a very strong sense.

This is an announcement for the paper "$L^\infty$ to $L^p$ constants
for Riesz projections" by Jordi Marzo and Kristian Seip.
Abstract: The norm of the Riesz projection from $L^\infty(\T^n)$ to
$L^p(\T^n)$ is considered. It is shown that for $n=1$, the norm equals
$1$ if and only if $p\le 4$ and that the norm behaves asymptotically
as $p/(\pi e)$ when $p\to \infty$. The critical exponent $p_n$ is the
supremum of those $p$ for which the norm equals $1$. It is proved that
$2+2/(2^n-1)\le p_n <4$ for $n>1$; it is unknown whether the critical
exponent for $n=\infty$ exceeds $2$.
