Abstract: We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an operator $A:X\to Y$ on a Banach space having a shrinking FDD to factor through a Banach space $Z$ such that the Szlenk index of $Z$ is equal to the Szlenk index of $A$. We also prove that for every ordinal $\xi\in (0, \omega_1)\setminus\{\omega^\eta: \eta<\omega_1\text{\ a limit ordinal}\}$, there exists a Banach space $\mathfrak{G}_\xi$ having a shrinking basis and Szlenk index $\omega^\xi$ such that for any separable Banach space $X$ and any operator $A:X\to Y$ having Szlenk index less than $\omega^\xi$, $A$ factors through a subspace and through a quotient of $\mathfrak{G}_\xi$, and if $X$ has a shrinking FDD, $A$ factors through $\mathfrak{G}_\xi$.

This is an announcement for the paper “Asymptotic greediness of the Haar system in the spaces $L_p[0,1], 1<p<\infty$” by Fernando Albiac<https://arxiv.org/search?searchtype=author&query=Albiac%2C+F>, José L. Ansorena<https://arxiv.org/search?searchtype=author&query=Ansorena%2C+J+L>, Pablo M. Berná<https://arxiv.org/search?searchtype=author&query=Bern%C3%A1%2C+P+M>.
Abstract: Our aim in this paper is to attain a sharp asymptotic estimate for the greedy constant $C_g[\mathcal{H}^{(p)},L_p]$ of the (normalized) Haar system $\mathcal{H}^{(p)}$ in $L_{p}[0,1]$ for $1<p<\infty$. We will show that the superdemocracy constant of $\mathcal{H}^{(p)}$ in $L_{p}[0,1]$ grows as $p^{\ast}=\max\{p,p/(p-1)\}$ as $p^*$ goes to $\infty$. Thus, since the unconditionality constant of $\mathcal{H}^{(p)}$ in $L_{p}[0,1]$ is $p^*-1$, the well-known general estimates for the greedy constant of a greedy basis obtained from the intrinsic features of greediness (namely, democracy and unconditionality) yield that $p^{\ast}\lesssim C_g[\mathcal{H}^{(p)},L_p]\lesssim (p^{\ast})^{2}$. Going further, we develop techniques that allow us to close the gap between those two bounds, establishing that, in fact, $C_g[\mathcal{H}^{(p)},L_p]\approx p^{\ast}$.

This is an announcement for the paper “Duality problem for disjointly homogeneous rearrangement invariant spaces” by Sergey V. Astashkin<https://arxiv.org/search?searchtype=author&query=Astashkin%2C+S+V>.
Abstract: Let $1\leq p<\infty$. A Banach lattice $E$ is said to be disjointly homogeneous (resp. $p$-disjointly homogeneous) if two arbitrary normalized disjoint sequences from $E$ contain equivalent in $E$ subsequences (resp. every normalized disjoint sequence contains a subsequence equivalent in $E$ to the unit vector basis of $\ell_p$). Answering a question raised in 2014 by Flores, Hernandez, Spinu, Tradacete, and Troitsky, for each $1< p<\infty$, we construct a reflexive $p$-disjointly homogeneous rearrangement invariant space on $[0,1]$ whose dual is not disjointly homogeneous. Employing methods from interpolation theory, we provide new examples of disjointly homogeneous rearrangement invariant spaces; in particular, we show that there is a Tsirelson type disjointly homogeneous rearrangement invariant space, which contains no subspace isomorphic to $\ell_p$, $1\leq p<\infty$, or $c_0$.
