This is an announcement for the paper "Noncommutative integral
inequalities for convex functions of maximal functions and applications"
by Turdebek N. Bekjan and Zeqian Chen.
Abstract: In this paper, we establish a Marcinkiewicz type interpolation
theorem for convex functions of maximal functions in the noncommutative
setting. As applications, we prove the noncommutative analogue of the
Doob inequality for convex functions of maximal functions on martingales,
the analogue of the classical Dunford-Schwartz maximal ergodic inequality
for convex functions of positive contractions, and that of Stein's maximal
inequality for convex functions of symmetric positive contractions. As
a consequence, we obtain the moment Burkholder-Davis-Gundy inequality
for noncommutative martingales.

This is an announcement for the paper "Low-distortion embeddings of
graphs with large girth" by Mikhail I. Ostrovskii.
Abstract: The main purpose of the paper is to construct a sequence of
graphs of constant degree with indefinitely growing girths admitting
embeddings into $\ell_1$ with uniformly bounded distortions. This result
answers the problem posed by N.~Linial, A.~Magen, and A.~Naor (2002).

This is an announcement for the paper "Approximation properties of
locally convex spaces and the problem of uniqueness of the trace of a
linear operator" by Grigory L. Litvinov.
Abstract: In the present article, it is proved that every nuclear
operator in a locally convex space E has a well-defined trace if
E possesses the approximation property. However, even if a space
possesses the approximation property this still does not guarantee
a positive solution of A. Grothendieck's uniqueness problem for this
space. Below, we present an example of a quasi-complete space with the
approximation property in which it is not possible to define the trace
for all Fredholm operators (in the sense of A. Grothendieck). We prove
that the uniqueness problem has a positive solution if E possesses the
"bounded approximation property." Preliminary information and results
are presented in Section 2. A number of approximation-type properties
of locally convex spaces and relations between these properties are
considered in Section 3. The principal results of the present study,
along with certain corollaries from these results (for example, the
existence of a matrix trace), may be found in Section 4.

This is an announcement for the paper "The asymptotic growth of
the constants in the Bohnenblust-Hille inequality is optimal"
by Diogo Diniz, G. A. Munoz-Fernandez, Daniel Pellegrino and
J. B. Seoane-Sepulveda.
Abstract: In this note we provide a family of constants,
$C_{n}$, enjoying the Bohnenblust--Hille inequality and such that
$\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}C_{n}/C_{n-1}=1$, i.e., their asymptotic growth
is the best possible. As a consequence, we also show that the optimal
constants, $K_n$, in the Bohnenblust--Hille inequality have the best
possible asymptotic behavior.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the supremal $p$-negative type
of a finite metric space" by Stephen Sanchez.
Abstract: We study the supremal $p$-negative type of finite metric
spaces. An explicit expression for the supremal $p$-negative type $\wp
(X,d)$ of a finite metric space $(X,d)$ is given in terms its associated
distance matrix, from which the supremal $p$-negative type of the space
may be calculated. The method is then used to give a straightforward
calculation of the supremal $p$-negative type of the complete bipartite
graphs $K_{n,m}$ endowed with the usual path metric. A gap in the spectrum
of possible supremal $p$-negative type values of path metric graphs is
also proven.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the operator space $OUMD$
property for the column Hilbert space $C$" by Yanqi Qiu.
Abstract: The operator space $OUMD$ property was introduced by Pisier in
the context of verctor-valued noncommutative $L_p$-spaces. It is still
unknown whether the property is independent of $p$ in this setting. In
this paper, we prove that the column Hilbert space $C$ is $OUMD_p$ for
all $1 < p < \infty$, this answers positively a question asked by Ruan.

This is an announcement for the paper "Estimates for the asymptotic
behavior of the constants in the Bohnenblust--Hille inequality" by
G. A. Munoz-Fernandez, D. Pellegrino and J. B. Seoane-Sepulveda.
Abstract: A classical inequality due to
H.F. Bohnenblust and E. Hille states that for every
positive integer $n$ there is a constant $C_{n}>0$ so that
$$\left(\sum\limits_{i_{1},\dots,i_{n}=1}^{N}\left\vert U(e_{i_{^{1}}},
\dots ,e_{i_{n}})\right\vert^{\frac{2n}{n+1}}\right)^{\frac{n+1}{2n}}\leq
C_{n}\left\Vert U\right\Vert$$ for every
positive integer $N$ and every $n$-linear mapping
$U:\ell_{\infty}^{N}\times\cdots\times\ell_{\infty}^{N}\rightarrow\mathbb{C}$.
The original estimates for those constants from Bohnenblust and Hille are
$$C_{n}=n^{\frac{n+1}{2n}}2^{\frac{n-1}{2}}.$$ In this note we present
explicit formulae for quite better constants, and calculate the asymptotic
behavior of these estimates, completing recent results of the second
and third authors. For example, we show that, if $C_{\mathbb{R},n}$
and $C_{\mathbb{C},n}$ denote (respectively) these estimates for
the real and complex Bohnenblust--Hille inequality then, for every
even positive integer $n$, $$\frac{C_{\mathbb{R},n}}{\sqrt{\pi}}
= \frac{C_{\mathbb{C},n}}{\sqrt{2}} = 2^{\frac{n+2}{8}}\cdot r_n$$
for a certain sequence $\{r_n\}$ which we estimate numerically to
belong to the interval $(1,3/2)$ (the case $n$ odd is similar).
Simultaneously, assuming that $\{r_n\}$ is in fact convergent,
we also conclude that $$\displaystyle \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}
\frac{C_{\mathbb{R},n}}{C_{\mathbb{R},n-1}} = \displaystyle \lim_{n
\rightarrow \infty} \frac{C_{\mathbb{C},n}}{C_{\mathbb{C},n-1}}=
2^{\frac{1}{8}}.$$

This is an announcement for the paper "A remark on the slicing problem"
by Apostolos Giannopoulos, Grigoris Paouris, and Beatrice-Helen Vritsiou.
Abstract: The purpose of this article is to describe a reduction of the
slicing problem to the study of the parameter I_1(K,Z_q^o(K))=\int_K
||< : ,x> ||_{L_q(K)}dx. We show that an upper bound of the form
I_1(K,Z_q^o(K))\leq C_1q^s\sqrt{n}L_K^2, with 1/2\leq s\leq 1, leads to
the estimate L_n\leq \frac{C_2\sqrt[4]{n}log(n)} {q^{(1-s)/2}}, where
L_n:= max {L_K : K is an isotropic convex body in R^n}.

This is an announcement for the paper "Chevet type inequality and norms
of submatrices" by Radoslaw Adamczak, Rafal Latala, Alexander E. Litvak,
Alain Pajor, and Nicole Tomczak-Jaegermann.
Abstract: We prove a Chevet type inequality which gives an upper bound
for the norm of an isotropic log-concave unconditional random matrix
in terms of expectation of the supremum of ``symmetric exponential"
processes compared to the Gaussian ones in the Chevet inequality. This
is used to give sharp upper estimate for a quantity $\Gamma_{k,m}$ that
controls uniformly the Euclidean operator norm of the sub-matrices with
$k$ rows and $m$ columns of an isotropic log-concave unconditional random
matrix. We apply these estimates to give a sharp bound for the Restricted
Isometry Constant of a random matrix with independent log-concave
unconditional rows. We show also that our Chevet type inequality does
not extend to general isotropic log-concave random matrices.
