This is an announcement for the paper "Some implications of Lebesgue
decomposition" by Gianluca Cassese.
Abstract: Based on a generalization of Lebesgue decomposition we obtain a
characterization of weak compactness in the space $ba$, a representation
of its dual space and some results on the structure of finitely additive
measures.

This is an announcement for the paper "Strictly singular non-compact
operators on a class of HI spaces" by Antonis Manoussakis and Anna
Pelczar-Barwacz.
Abstract: We present a method for constructing bounded strictly singular
non-compact operators on mixed Tsirelson spaces defined either by the
families (A_n) or (S_n) of a certain class, as well as on spaces built
on them, including hereditarily indecomposable spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Higher order spreading models"
by S. A. Argyros, V. Kanellopoulos, and K. Tyros.
Abstract: We introduce the higher order spreading models associated
to a Banach space $X$. Their definition is based on $\ff$-sequences
$(x_s)_{s\in\ff}$ with $\ff$ a regular thin family and the
plegma families. We show that the higher order spreading models
of a Banach space $X$ form an increasing transfinite hierarchy
$(\mathcal{SM}_\xi(X))_{\xi<\omega_1}$. Each $\mathcal{SM}_\xi
(X)$ contains all spreading models generated by $\ff$-sequences
$(x_s)_{s\in\ff}$ with order of $\ff$ equal to $\xi$. We also provide
a study of the fundamental properties of the hierarchy.

This is an announcement for the paper "On randomness reduction in the
Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma" by Pawel Wolff.
Abstract: A refinement of so-called fast Johnson-Lindenstrauss
transform, due to Ailon and Chazelle (2006), and Matou\v{s}ek (2008),
is proposed. While it preserves the time efficiency and simplicity
of implementation of the original construction, it reduces randomness
used to generate the random transformation. In the analysis of the
construction two auxiliary results are established which might be
of independent interest: a Bernstein-type inequality for a sum of a
random sample from a family of independent random variables and a normal
approximation result for such a sum.

Workshop in Analysis and Probability
Department of Mathematics
Texas A&M University
Summer 2012
The Summer 2012 Workshop in Analysis and Probability at Texas A&M
University will be in session from July 2 until August 10, 2012. For
information about the Workshop, consult the Workshop Home Page, whose NEW
URL is
http://www.math.tamu.edu/~kerr/workshop/
The Informal Regional Functional Analysis Seminar (SUMIRFAS) will be held
August 3-5.
July 16 - 19 there will be a Concentration Week on "Frame Theory and Maps
Between Operator Algebras",
organized by Chris Heil, Emily J. King (chair), Keri Kornelson, David
Larson (local organizer), and Darrin Speegle. A researcher working in
frame theory will naturally be led to consider matrices (the Gram matrix,
the analysis operator and the synthesis operator), and many problems in
frame theory have a re-casting in operator theory. The most celebrated
example of this is the Kadison-Singer problem. By now, there are many
mathematicians familiar with the basics of the two areas, and there is a
fruitful collaboration. Less obvious is the relationship between frame
theory and maps between operator algebras. Very recent work in this area
by Han, Larson, Lu, and Lu indicate that this may be a relationship that
is ripe for exploiting. The goal of this concentration week is to bring
together researchers in these two fields so that they may learn from one
another and build networks of potential collaborators. There will be
introductory series of talks on "Frame theory" by Ole Christensen, on
"Maps on Operator Algebras" by Vern Paulsen, and on "Bridging the Gap
Between Frame Theory and Maps on Operator Algebras" by Deguang Han. This
concentration week will also lead into a separate conference on the
following weekend celebrating the 70th birthday of David Larson. The home
page for this Workshop is at
http://page.math.tu-berlin.de/~king/cw.html
August 6-10 there will be a Concentration Week on "Recent advances in
Harmonic Analysis and Spectral Theory",
organized by Andrew Comech, David Damanik, Constanze Liaw (chair), and
Alexei Poltoratski. This CW is designed to bring together two groups of
experts: those specializing in complex and harmonic analysis and those
working in spectral theory of differential operators and mathematical
physics. The main goals of the CW are to study new relationships and to
widen further participation in this area in the United States.
Introductory series of lectures by Stephen Gustafson, Svetlana
Jitomirskaya (to be confirmed), Helge Krueger, and Brett Wick are planned
to acquaint non-experts with these topics with the reasonable expectation
that some the participants in the larger Workshop will be attracted to
this program and inject new ideas into the area.
The home page for this Workshop is at
http://www.math.tamu.edu/~comech/events/hast-2012/
The Workshop is supported in part by grants from the National Science
Foundation (NSF). Minorities, women, graduate students, and young
researchers are especially encouraged to attend.
