This is an announcement for the paper "Analytic multiple gaps" by Antonio Aviles and Stevo Todorcevic. Abstract: We prove that there is a finite basis for analytic n-gaps, and we prove a number of results concerning the structure of an analytic n-gap when restricted to an infinite subset. This has applications in the study of how different classes of subsequences are mixed inside a sequence of vectors in a Banach space Archive classification: math.LO math.CO math.FA Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary 03E15, 28A05, 05D10, Secondary 46B15 Submitted from: avileslo(a)um.es The paper may be downloaded from the archive by web browser from URL http://front.math.ucdavis.edu/1209.3751 or http://arXiv.org/abs/1209.3751

This is an announcement for the paper "The $\epsilon-\epsilon^\beta$ property, the boundedness of isoperimetric sets in $\R^N$ with density, and some applications" by Eleonora Cinti and Aldo Pratelli. Abstract: We show that every isoperimetric set in R^N with density is bounded if the density is continuous and bounded by above and below. This improves the previously known boundedness results, which basically needed a Lipschitz assumption; on the other hand, the present assumption is sharp, as we show with an explicit example. To obtain our result, we observe that the main tool which is often used, namely a classical ``\epsilon-\epsilon'' property already discussed by Allard, Almgren and Bombieri, admits a weaker counterpart which is still sufficient for the boundedness, namely, an ``\epsilon-\epsilon^\beta'' version of the property. And in turn, while for the validity of the first property the Lipschitz assumption is essential, for the latter the sole continuity is enough. We conclude by deriving some consequences of our result about the existence and regularity of isoperimetric sets.

This is an announcement for the paper "Lebesgue classes and preparation of real constructible functions" by Raf Cluckers and Daniel J. Miller. Abstract: We call a function constructible if it has a globally subanalytic domain and can be expressed as a sum of products of globally subanalytic functions and logarithms of positively-valued globally subanalytic functions. For any $q > 0$ and constructible functions $f$ and $\mu$ on $E\times\RR^n$, we prove a theorem describing the structure of the set of all $(x,p)$ in $E \times (0,\infty]$ for which $y \mapsto f(x,y)$ is in $L^p(|\mu|_{x}^{q})$, where $|\mu|_{x}^{q}$ is the positive measure on $\RR^n$ whose Radon-Nikodym derivative with respect to the Lebesgue measure is $y\mapsto |\mu(x,y)|^q$. We also prove a closely related preparation theorem for $f$ and $\mu$. These results relate analysis (the study of $L^p$-spaces) with geometry (the study of zero loci).

This is an announcement for the paper "On the geometry of von Neumann algebra preduals" by Miguel Martin and Yoshimichi Ueda. Abstract: Let $M$ be a von Neumann algebra and let $M_\star$ be its (unique) predual. We study when for every $\varphi\in M_\star$ there exists $\psi\in M_\star$ solving the equation $\|\varphi \pm \psi\|=\|\varphi\|=\|\psi\|$. This is the case when $M$ does not contain type I nor type III$_1$ factors as direct summands and it is false at least for the unique hyperfinite type III$_1$ factor. An approximate result valid for all diffuse von Neumann algebras allows to show that the equation has solution for every element in the ultraproduct of preduals of diffuse von Neumann algebras and, in particular, the dual von Neumann algebra of such ultraproduct is diffuse. This shows that the Daugavet property and the uniform Daugavet property are equivalent for preduals of von Neumann algebras.

This is an announcement for the paper "Differential expressions with mixed homogeneity and spaces of smooth functions they generate" by S. V. Kislyakov, D. V. Maksimov, and D. M. Stolyarov. Abstract: Let $\{T_1,\dots,T_l\}$ be a collection of differential operators with constant coefficients on the torus $\mathbb{T}^n$. Consider the Banach space $X$ of functions $f$ on the torus for which all functions $T_j f$, $j=1,\dots,l$, are continuous. Extending the previous work of the first two authors, we analyse the embeddability of $X$ into some space $C(K)$ as a complemented subspace. We prove the following. Fix some pattern of mixed homogeneity and extract the senior homogeneous parts (relative to the pattern chosen) $\{\tau_1,\dots,\tau_l\}$ from the initial operators $\{T_1,\dots,T_l\}$. Let $N$ be the dimension of the linear span of $\{\tau_1,\dots,\tau_l\}$. If $N\geqslant 2$, then $X$ is not isomorphic to a complemented subspace of $C(K)$ for any compact space $K$. The main ingredient of the proof of this fact is a new Sobolev-type embedding theorem.

This is an announcement for the paper "Quantum expanders and geometry of operator spaces" by Gilles Pisier. Abstract: We show that there are well separated families of quantum expanders with asymptotically the maximal cardinality allowed by a known upper bound. This has applications to the ``local theory" of operator spaces. This allows us to provide sharp estimates for the growth of the multiplicity of $M_N$-spaces needed to represent (up to a constant $C>1$) the $M_N$-version of the $n$-dimensional operator Hilbert space $OH_n$ as a direct sum of copies of $M_N$. We show that, when $C$ is close to 1, this multiplicity grows as $\exp{\beta n N^2}$ for some constant $\beta>0$. The main idea is to identify quantum expanders with ``smooth" points on the matricial analogue of the unit sphere. This generalizes to operator spaces a classical geometric result on $n$-dimensional Hilbert space (corresponding to $N=1$). Our work strongly suggests to further study a certain class of operator spaces that we call matricially subGaussian. In a second part, we introduce and study a generalization of the notion of exact operator space that we call subexponential. Using Random Matrices we show that the factorization results of Grothendieck type that are known in the exact case all extend to the subexponential case, and we exhibit (a continuum of distinct) examples of non-exact subexponential operator spaces. We also show that $OH$, $R+C$ and $\max(\ell_2)$ (or any other maximal operator space) are not subexponential.

This is an announcement for the paper "Three-space property for asymptotically uniformly smooth renormings" by P.A.H. Brooker and G. Lancien. Abstract: We prove that if $Y$ is a closed subspace of a Banach space $X$ such that $Y$ and $X/Y$ admit an equivalent asymptotically uniformly smooth norm, then $X$ also admits an equivalent asymptotically uniformly smooth norm. The proof is based on the use of the Szlenk index and yields a few other applications to renorming theory.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the spectrum of frequently hypercyclic operators" by Stanislav Shkarin. Abstract: A bounded linear operator $T$ on a Banach space $X$ is called frequently hypercyclic if there exists $x\in X$ such that the lower density of the set $\{n\in\N:T^nx\in U\}$ is positive for any non-empty open subset $U$ of $X$. Bayart and Grivaux have raised a question whether there is a frequently hypercyclic operator on any separable infinite dimensional Banach space. We prove that the spectrum of a frequently hypercyclic operator has no isolated points. It follows that there are no frequently hypercyclic operators on all complex and on some real hereditarily indecomposable Banach spaces, which provides a negative answer to the above question.
