It would be great if you could visit Kent State and participate in the seminar! The conference will have a registration fee of $200 WHICH INCLUDES: pick up/drop off from the airport, THREE DAY STAY in the Microtel hotel at Streetsboro, Saturday/Sunday lunches/dinners to be provided at the department. If you plan to stay fewer than 3 nights or prefer to make your own accommodation arrangements, please reduce your registration fee by $45 per day that you will not use our hotel arrangements. If possible, please send a check for your registration fee, made out to the Department of Mathematical Sciences, Kent State University. The check should be mailed to Virginia Wright, Department of Mathematical Sciences, Kent State University, Kent, OH, 44242. The fee can be also be paid during the registration (check/cash). The conference is supported by NSF; The Department of Mathematical Sciences and Kent State University. Depending on funds availability the fee may be waived for young researchers and people without available funding. Please, write as soon as possible to zvavitch(a)math.kent.edu May we ask you to respond as soon as February 19 (zvavitch(a)math.kent.edu), so that we can gauge the need for housing, lecture room(s), etc. Best Regards, Analysis group at Kent State!

This is an announcement for the paper "On the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function for the cube" by Jean Bourgain. Abstract: It is shown that the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function associated to the cube in $\mathbb R^n$ obeys dimensional free bounds in $L^p$ fir $p>1$. Earlier work only covered the range $p>\frac 32$.

This is an announcement for the paper "In which dimensions is the ball relatively worst packing?" by Yoav Kallus and Fedor Nazarov. Abstract: It was conjectured by Ulam that the ball has the lowest optimal lattice packing density out of all convex, origin-symmetric three-dimensional solids. We affirm a local version of this conjecture: the ball has a lower optimal lattice packing than any body of sufficiently small asphericity in three dimensions. We also show that in dimensions 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 24 there are bodies of arbitrarily small asphericity that pack worse than balls.

This is an announcement for the paper "Covering $L^p$ spaces by balls" by Vladimir P. Fonf, Michael Levin and Clemente Zanco. Abstract: We prove that, given any covering of any separable infinite-dimensional uniformly rotund and uniformly smooth Banach space $X$ by closed balls each of positive radius, some point exists in $X$ which belongs to infinitely many balls.

This is an announcement for the paper "Minimal volume product near Hanner polytopes" by Jaegil Kim. Abstract: Mahler's conjecture asks whether the cube is a minimizer for the volume product of a body and its polar in the class of symmetric convex bodies in a fixed dimension. It is known that every Hanner polytope has the same volume product as the cube or the cross-polytope. In this paper we prove that every Hanner polytope is a strict local minimizer for the volume product in the class of symmetric convex bodies endowed with the Banach-Mazur distance.

This is an announcement for the paper "Vertical versus horizontal Poincar\'e inequalities on the Heisenberg group" by Vincent Lafforgue and Assaf Naor. Abstract: Let $\H= \left\langle a,b\,|\, a[a,b]=[a,b]a\ \wedge\ b[a,b]=[a,b]b\right\rangle$ be the discrete Heisenberg group, equipped with the left-invariant word metric $d_W(\cdot,\cdot)$ associated to the generating set $\{a,b,a^{-1},b^{-1}\}$. Letting $B_n= \{x\in \H:\ d_W(x,e_\H)\le n\}$ denote the corresponding closed ball of radius $n\in \N$, and writing $c=[a,b]=aba^{-1}b^{-1}$, we prove that if $(X,\|\cdot\|_X)$ is a Banach space whose modulus of uniform convexity has power type $q\in [2,\infty)$ then there exists $K\in (0,\infty)$ such that every $f:\H\to X$ satisfies \begin{multline*} \sum_{k=1}^{n^2}\sum_{x\in B_n}\frac{ \|f(xc^k)-f(x)\|_X^q}{k^{1+q/2}}\\\le K\sum_{x\in B_{21n}} \Big(\|f(xa)-f(x)\|^q_X+\|f(xb)-f(x)\|^q_X\Big). \end{multline*} It follows that for every $n\in \N$ the bi-Lipschitz distortion of every $f:B_n\to X$ is at least a constant multiple of $(\log n)^{1/q}$, an asymptotically optimal estimate as $n\to\infty$.

This is an announcement for the paper "A note on column subset selection" by Pierre Youssef. Abstract: Given a matrix U, using a deterministic method, we extract a "large" submatrix of U'(whose columns are obtained by normalizing those of U) and estimate its smallest and largest singular value. We apply this result to the study of contact points of the unit ball with its maximal volume ellipsoid. We consider also the paving problem and give a deterministic algorithm to partition a matrix into almost isometric blocks recovering previous results of Bourgain-Tzafriri and Tropp. Finally, we partially answer a question raised by Naor about finding an algorithm in the spirit of Batson-Spielman-Srivastava's work to extract a "large" square submatrix of "small" norm.

This is an announcement for the paper "Shrinking and boundedly complete atomic decompositions in Fr\'echet spaces" by Jose Bonet, Carmen Fernandez, Antonio Galbis, and Juan M. Ribera. Abstract: We study atomic decompositions in Fr\'echet spaces and their duals, as well as perturbation results. We define shrinking and boundedly complete atomic decompositions on a locally convex space, study the duality of these two concepts and their relation with the reflexivity of the space. We characterize when an unconditional atomic decomposition is shrinking or boundedly complete in terms of properties of the space. Several examples of concrete atomic decompositions in function spaces are also presented.
