This is an announcement for the paper "A common fixed point theorem for
a commuting family of weak$^{\ast }$ continuous nonexpansive mappings"
by Slawomir Borzdynski and Andrzej Wisnicki.
Abstract: It is shown that if $S$ is a commuting family of weak$^{\ast
}$ continuous nonexpansive mappings acting on a weak$^{\ast }$ compact
convex subset $C$ of the dual Banach space $E$, then the set of common
fixed points of $S$ is a nonempty nonexpansive retract of $C$. This
partially solves a long-standing open problem in metric fixed point
theory in the case of commutative semigroups.

This is an announcement for the paper "Sur quelques extensions au cadre
Banachique de la notion d'op\'erateur de Hilbert-Schmidt" by Said
Amana Abdillah, Jean Esterle, and Bernhard Hermann Haak.
Abstract: In this work we discuss several ways to extend to the context
of Banach spaces the notion of Hilbert-Schmidt operators: $p$-summing
operators, $\gamma$-summing or $\gamma$-radonifying operators, weakly
$*1$-nuclear operators and classes of operators defined via factorization
properties. We introduce the class $PS_2(E; F)$ of pre-Hilbert-Schmidt
operators as the class of all operators $u:E\to F$ such that $w\circ
u \circ v$ is Hilbert-Schmidt for every bounded operator $v: H_1\to E$
and every bounded operator $w:F\to H_2$, where $H_1$ et $H_2$ are Hilbert
spaces. Besides the trivial case where one of the spaces $E$ or $F$ is a
"Hilbert-Schmidt space", this space seems to have been described only in
the easy situation where one of the spaces $E$ or $F$ is a Hilbert space.

SUMIRFAS will be preceded by a Concentration Week on Free Probability
from July 21 to 25. Topics will include operator algebras, the connections
to random matrix theory, operator-valued and fully matricial techniques,
stochastic processes, limit theorems, and free stochastic differential
equations.
The program will feature lecture series by Greg Anderson, Serban
Belinschi,
and Dimitri Shlyakhtenko. The webpage is located at:

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.
