This is an announcement for the paper "Complemented Brunn--Minkowski
inequalities and isoperimetry for homogeneous and non-homogeneous
measures" by Emanuel Milman and Liran Rotem.
Abstract: Elementary proofs of sharp isoperimetric inequalities on a
normed space $(\Real^n,\norm{\cdot})$ equipped with a measure $\mu
= w(x) dx$ so that $w^p$ is homogeneous are provided, along with a
characterization of the corresponding equality cases. When $p \in
(0,\infty]$ and in addition $w^p$ is assumed concave, the result is
an immediate corollary of the Borell--Brascamp--Lieb extension of
the classical Brunn--Minkowski inequality, providing an elementary
proof of a recent result of Cabr\'e--Ros Oton--Serra. When $p \in
(-1/n,0)$, the relevant property turns out to be a novel ``complemented
Brunn--Minkowski" inequality, which we show is always satisfied by $\mu$
when $w^p$ is homogeneous. This gives rise to a new class of measures,
which are ``complemented" analogues of the class of convex measures
introduced by Borell, but which have vastly different properties. The
resulting isoperimetric inequality and characterization of isoperimetric
minimizers extends beyond the recent results of Ca\~{n}ete--Rosales and
Howe. The isoperimetric and Brunn-Minkowski type inequalities extend to
the non-homogeneous setting, under a certain log-convexity assumption
on the density. Finally, we obtain functional, Sobolev and Nash-type
versions of the studied inequalities.

This is an announcement for the paper "Estimation of the Szlenk index
of reflexive Banach spaces using generalized Baernstein spaces" by
Ryan Causey.
Abstract: For each ordinal $\alpha< \omega_1$, we prove the existence
of a separable, reflexive Banach space with a basis and Szlenk index
$\omega^{\alpha+1}$ which is universal for the class of separable,
reflexive Banach spaces $X$ such that the Szlenk indices $Sz(X), Sz(X^*)$
do not exceed $\omega^\alpha$.

This is an announcement for the paper "The complex angle in normed spaces"
by Volker W. Thurey.
Abstract: We consider a generalized angle in complex normed vector
spaces. Its definition corresponds to the definition of the well known
Euclidean angle in real inner product spaces. Not surprisingly it yields
complex values as `angles'. This `angle' has some simple properties,
which are known from the usual angle in real inner product spaces. But
to do ordinary Euclidean geometry real angles are necessary. We show
that even in a complex normed space there are many pure real valued
`angles'. The situation improves yet in inner product spaces. There
we can use the known theory of orthogonal systems to find many pairs
of vectors with real angles, and to do geometry which is based on the
Greeks 2000 years ago.

This is an announcement for the paper "Localizing algebras and invariant
subspaces" by Miguel Lacruz and Luis Rodriguez-Piazza.
Abstract: It is shown that the algebra \(L^\infty(\mu)\) of all
bounded measurable functions with respect to a finite measure \(\mu\)
is localizing on the Hilbert space \(L^2(\mu)\) if and only if
the measure \(\mu\) has an atom. Next, it is shown that the algebra
\(H^\infty({\mathbb D})\) of all bounded analytic multipliers on the unit
disc fails to be localizing, both on the Bergman space \(A^2({\mathbb
D})\) and on the Hardy space \(H^2({\mathbb D}).\) Then, several
conditions are provided for the algebra generated by a diagonal operator
on a Hilbert space to be localizing. Finally, a theorem is provided about
the existence of hyperinvariant subspaces for operators with a localizing
subspace of extended eigenoperators. This theorem extends and unifies
some previously known results of Scott Brown and Kim, Moore and Pearcy,
and Lomonosov, Radjavi and Troitsky.

Abstract: It is shown that for every $p\in (2,\infty)$ there exists a

auerbach bases in separable Banach spaces" by Robert Bogucki.
Abstract: This paper considers explicit constructions of Auerbach bases in
separable Banach spaces. Answering the question of A. Pe{\l}czy{\'n}ski,
we prove by construction the existence of Auerbach basis in arbitrary
subspace of $c_0$ of finite codimension and in the space $C(K)$ for $K$
compact countable metric space.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the $L_p$ geominimal surface
area and related inequalities" by Deping Ye.
Abstract: In this paper, we introduce the $L_p$ Geominimal surface area
for all $-n\neq p<1$, which extends the classical Geominimal surface
area ($p=1$) by Petty and the $L_p$ Geominimal surface area by Lutwak
($p>1$). Our extension of the $L_p$ Geominimal surface area is motivated
by recent work on the extension of the $L_p$ affine surface area -- a
fundamental object in (affine) convex geometry. We prove some properties
for the $L_p$ Geominimal surface area and its related inequalities,
such as, the affine isoperimetric inequality and the Santal\'{o} style
inequality. Some cyclic inequalities are established to obtain the
monotonicity of the $L_p$ Geominimal surface area. Comparison between
the $L_p$ Geominimal surface area and the (formal) $p$-surface area is
also provided.

7th Conference on Function Spaces will take place at the SIUE campus between May 20 and May 24, 2014. The Conference will follow the same format as the previous one:
http://www.siue.edu/MATH/conference2010/
If you consider attending the Conference it would help our preparation if you could email us at kjarosz(a)siue.edu checking one of the following:
I will participate,
It is too early to decide, but I will likely come,
Keep me on the mailing list but chances of me coming are rather low
Comments:
Could you also pass this information to your colleagues and graduate students?
We received a small grant to cover some of the local expenses but at this point we are unable to offer any meaningful travel support. We are however applying for an NSF grant to defer travel and local cost for "graduate students, postdocs, young nontenured faculty, women and members of underrepresented groups" (NSF priority) as well as for invited speakers. Since the NSF founded the previous conferences in this series we are quite hopeful that they will provide participants' support again.
Knowing well in advance the potential participants will increase chances for an adequate support.
Sincerely yours,

This is an announcement for the paper "Isomorphic universality and
the number of pairwise non-isomorphic in the class of Banach spaces"
by Mirna Dzamonja.
Abstract: We study isomorphic universality of Banach spaces of a given
density and a number of pairwise non-isomorphic models in the same
class. We show that in the Cohen model the isomorphic universality number
for Banach spaces of density $\aleph_1$ is $\aleph_2$, and analogous
results are true for other cardinals (Theorem 1.2(1)) and that adding
just one Cohen real to any model destroys the universality of Banach
spaces of density $\aleph_1$ (Theorem 1.5). We develop the framework
of natural spaces to study isomorphic embeddings of Banach spaces and
use it to show that a sufficient failure of the generalized continuum
hypothesis implies that the universality number of Banach spaces of a
given density under a certain kind of positive embeddings (very positive
embeddings), is high (Theorem 4.8(1)), and similarly for the number of
pairwise non-isomorphic models (Theorem 4.8(2)).
