This is an announcement for the paper “Banach spaces of linear operators and homogeneous polynomials without the approximation property” by Sergio A. Perez. Abstract: We present many examples of Banach spaces of linear operators and homogeneous polynomials without the approximation property, thus improving results of Dineen and Mujica [11] and Godefroy and Saphar [13].

This is an announcement for the paper “The parabolic algebra on Banach spaces” by Eleftherios Kastis. Abstract: The parabolic algebra was introduced by Katavolos and Power, in 1997, as the operator algebra acting on $L_2(R)$ that is weakly generated by the translation and multiplication semigroups. In particular, they proved that this algebra is reflexive and is equal to the Fourier binest algebra, that is, to the algebra of operators that leave invariant the subspaces of the Volterra nest and its analytic counterpart. We prove that a similar result holds for the corresponding algebras acting on $L_p(R)$, where $1<p<\infty$. It is also shown that the reflexive closures of the Fourier binests on $L_p(R)$, are all order isomorphic for $1<p<\infty$.

This is an announcement for the paper “There is no bound on sizes of indecomposable Banach spaces” by Piotr Koszmider, Saharon Shelah and Michal Swietek. Abstract: Assuming the generalized continuum hypothesis we construct arbitrarily big indecomposable Banach spaces. i.e., such that whenever they are decomposed as$X\oplus Y$, then one of the closed subspaces $X$ or $Y$ must be finite dimensional. It requires alternative techniques compared to those which were initiated by Gowers and Maurey or Argyros with the coauthors. This is because hereditarily indecomposable Banach spaces always embed into $\ell_{\infty}$ and so their density and cardinality is bounded by the continuum and because dual Banach spaces of densities bigger than continuum are decomposable by a result due to Heinrich and Mankiewicz. The obtained Banach spaces are of the form $C(K)$ for some compact connected Hausdorff space and have few operators in the sense that every linear bounded operator $T$ on $C(K)$ for every $f\in C(K)$ satisfies $Tf=gf +S(F)$where $g\in C(K)$ and $S$ is weakly compact or equivalently strictly singular. In particular, the spaces carry the structure of a Banach algebra and in the complex case even the structure of a $C^*$-algebra.

This is an announcement for the paper “Linear structure of Lipschitz-free spaces over countable compact metric spaces” by Colin Petitjean. Abstract: In this paper we show that the Lipschitz-free space over a countable compact metric space linearly embeds into a $\ell_1$-sum of finite dimensional subspaces of itself. Therefore, as a corollary, we will obtain that the Lipschitz-free space over a countable compact metric space has the $1$-Schur property and the $1$-strong Schur property.

This is an announcement for the paper “On a generalization of Bourgain’s tree index” by Kevin Beanland and Ryan Casusey. Abstract: For a Banach space $X$, a sequence of Banach spaces $(Y_n)$, and a Banach space $Z$ with an unconditional basis, D. Alspach and B. Sari introduced a generalization of a Bourgain tree called a $(\oplus_n Y_n)_Z$-tree in $X$. These authors also prove that any separable Banach space admitting a $(\oplus_n Y_n)_Z$-tree with order $\omega_1$ admits a subspace isomorphic to $(\oplus_n Y_n)_Z$. In this paper we give two new proofs of this result. The paper may be downloaded from the archive by web browser from URL http://arxiv.org/abs/1603.01133

This is an announcement for the paper “Linear properties of Banach spaces and low distortion embeddings of metric graphs” by Antonin Prochazka. Abstract: We characterize non-reflexive Banach spaces by a low-distortion (resp. isometric) embeddability of a certain metric graph up to a renorming. Also we study non-linear sufficient conditions for $\ell_1^n$ being $1+\epsilon$-isomorphic to a subspace of a Banach space $X$.

This is an announcement for the paper “An Extension Theorem for convex functions of class $C^{1,1}$ on Hilbert spaces” by Daniel Azagra and Carlos Mudarra. Abstract: Let $H$ be a Hilbert space, $E\subset H$ be an arbitrary subset and $f : E\rightarrow R, G: E\rightarrow H$ be two functions. We give a necessary and sufficient condition on the pair $(f, G)$ for the existence of a convex function $F\in C^{1,1}(H)$ such that $F=f$ and $\nabla F= G$ on $E$. We also show that, if this condition is met, $F$ can be taken so that Lip$(\nabla F)=$Lip$(G)$. The paper may be downloaded from the archive by web browser from URL http://arxiv.org/abs/1603.00241

Graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and members of underrepresented groups are particularly encouraged to apply for support. A poster session will be held for researchers to display their work. Graduate students are particularly encouraged to submit a poster. Posters can be submitted electronically in PDF format before November 6, 2015. Further information, and an online registration form, can be found online http://www.math.kent.edu/~zvavitch/informal/Informal_Analysis_Seminar/Novem… We encourage you to register as soon as possible, but to receive support and/or help with hotel reservation, please, register before October 1, 2015. Please feel free to contact us at informal(a)math.kent.edu for any further information. Sincerely, Analysis Group at Kent State University
