Title: Closed ideals of operators on the Tsirelson and Schreier spaces
Abstract: Significant progress has been made in our understanding of the lattice of closed ideals of the Banach algebra B(X) of bounded operators on a Banach space X over the last decade. I shall survey some highlights of this development and then focus on the outcomes of an ongoing collaboration with Niels Laustsen (Lancaster University, UK) and Tomasz Kania (Czech Academy of Sciences) in which we study the closed ideals of B(X) in the case where X is either Tsirelson's Banach space or a Schreier space of finite order.

Title: Rademacher type and Enflo type coincide
Abstract: A nonlinear analogue of the Rademacher type of a Banach space was introduced in classical work of Enflo. The key feature of Enflo type is that its definition uses only the metric structure of the Banach space, while the definition of Rademacher type relies on its linear structure. We prove that Rademacher type and Enflo type coincide, settling a long-standing open problem in Banach space theory. The proof is based on a novel dimension-free analogue of Pisier's inequality on the discrete cube.

This is an announcement for the paper “On Pisier's inequality for UMD targets” by Alexandros Eskenazis<https://arxiv.org/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Eskenazis%2C+A>.
Abstract: We prove an extension of Pisier's inequality (1986) with a dimension independent constant for vector valued functions whose target spaces satisfy a relaxation of the UMD property.

This is an announcement for the paper “Star-finite coverings of Banach spaces” by Carlo Alberto De Bernardi<https://arxiv.org/search/math?searchtype=author&query=De+Bernardi%2C+C+A>, Jacopo Somaglia<https://arxiv.org/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Somaglia%2C+J>, Libor Vesely<https://arxiv.org/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Vesely%2C+L>.
Abstract: We study star-finite coverings of infinite-dimensional normed spaces. A family of sets is called star-finite if each of its members intersects only finitely many other members of the family. It follows by our results that an LUR or a uniformly Fréchet smooth infinite-dimensional Banach space does not admit star-finite coverings by closed balls. On the other hand, we present a quite involved construction proving existence of a star-finite covering of $c_0(\Gamma)$ by Fréchet smooth centrally symmetric bounded convex bodies. A similar but simpler construction shows that every normed space of countable dimension (and hence incomplete) has a star-finite covering by closed balls.

This is an announcement for the paper “Factorization Theorem through a Dunford-Pettis $p$-convergent operator” by Morteza Alikhani<https://arxiv.org/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Alikhani%2C+M>.
Abstract: In this article, we introduce the notion of $p$-$(DPL)$ sets.\ Also, a factorization result for differentiable mappings through Dunford-Pettis $p$-convergent operators is investigated.\ Namely, if $ X ,Y $ are real Banach spaces and $U$ is an open convex subset of $X,$ then we obtain that, given a differentiable mapping $f: U\rightarrow Y$ its derivative $f^{\prime}$ takes $U$-bounded sets into $p$-$(DPL)$ sets if and only if it happens $f=g\circ S,$ where $S$ is a Dunford-Pettis $p$-convergent operator from $X$ into a suitable Banach space $Z$ and $g:S(U)\rightarrow Y$ is a Gâteaux differentiable mapping with some additional properties.
