This is an announcement for the paper "$M$-structures in vector-valued
polynomial spaces" by Veronica Dimant and Silvia Lassalle.
Abstract: This paper is concerned with the study of $M$-structures
in spaces of polynomials. More precisely, we discuss for $E$ and $F$
Banach spaces, whether the class of weakly continuous on bounded sets
$n$-homogeneous polynomials, $\mathcal P_w(^n E, F)$, is an $M$-ideal
in the space of continuous $n$-homogeneous polynomials $\mathcal P(^n
E, F)$. We show that there is some hope for this to happen only for a
finite range of values of $n$. We establish sufficient conditions under
which the problem has positive and negative answers and use the obtained
results to study the particular cases when $E=\ell_p$ and $F=\ell_q$ or
$F$ is a Lorentz sequence space $d(w,q)$. We extend to our setting the
notion of property $(M)$ introduced by Kalton which allows us to lift
$M$-structures from the linear to the vector-valued polynomial context.
Also, when $\mathcal P_w(^n E, F)$ is an $M$-ideal in $\mathcal P(^n E,
F)$ we prove a Bishop-Phelps type result for vector-valued polynomials and
relate norm-attaining polynomials with farthest points and remotal sets.

This is an announcement for the paper "Isoperimetry and stability of
hyperplanes for product probability measures" by Franck Barthe, Chiara
Bianchini, and Andrea Colesanti.
Abstract: We investigate stationarity and stability of half-spaces as
isoperimetric sets for product probability measures, considering the
cases of coordinate and non-coordinate half-spaces. Moreover, we present
several examples to which our results can be applied, with a particular
emphasis on the logistic measure.

This is an announcement for the paper "The multiplicative property
characterizes $\ell_p$ and $L_p$ norms" by Guillaume Aubrun and Ion
Nechita.
Abstract: We show that $\ell_p$ norms are characterized as the unique
norms which are both invariant under coordinate permutation and
multiplicative with respect to tensor products. Similarly, the $L_p$
norms are the unique rearrangement-invariant norms on a probability space
such that $\|X Y\|=\|X\|\cdot\|Y\|$ for every pair $X,Y$ of independent
random variables. Our proof relies on Cram\'er's large deviation theorem.

This is an announcement for the paper "Comments on the floating body
and the hyperplane conjecture" by Daniel Fresen.
Abstract: We provide upper and lower bounds on the logarithmic Hausdorff
distance between an arbitrary convex body $K\subset \mathbb{R}^{d}$\ and
the convex floating body $K_{\delta }$ inside $K$. We also discuss the
hyperplane conjecture (the slicing problem) and provide a reformulation
of this famous unsolved mystery in terms of the floating body.

This is an announcement for the paper "On everywhere almost summing
multilinear operators" by Daniel Pellegrino and Joilson Ribeiro.
Abstract: In this paper we obtain new results and characterizations for
the classes (ideals) of everywhere almost summing multilinear operators
and everywhere almost summing $n$-homogeneous polynomials. Among other
results we prove that the ideal of everywhere almost summing polynomials
is a global holomorphy type (this is not true for the original concept
of almost summing polynomials).

This is an announcement for the paper "Strong vector valued integrals"
by Ralf Beckmann and Anton Deitmar.
Abstract: Strong Bochner type integrals with values in locally convex
spaces are introduced. It is shown that the strong integral exists in the
same cases as the weak (Gelfand-Pettis) integral is known to exist. The
strong integral has better continuity properties that the weak integral.

This is an announcement for the paper "Tree duplicates,
$G_\delta$-diagonals and Gruenhage spaces" by Richard J. Smith.
Abstract: We present an example in ZFC of a locally compact, scattered
Hausdorff non-Gruenhage space $D$ having a $\G_delta$-diagonal. This
answers a question posed by Orihuela, Troyanski and the author in a study
of strictly convex norms on Banach spaces. In addition, we show that the
Banach space of continuous functions $C_0(D)$ admits a $C^\infty$-smooth
bump function.

This is an announcement for the paper "Invertibility of symmetric random
matrices" by Roman Vershynin.
Abstract: Let H be an n by n symmetric random matrix whose above-diagonal
entries are general iid random variables (possibly discrete) with zero
mean, unit variance, and subgaussian tail decay. We prove that H is
singular with probability at most exp(n^{-c}) for some constant c>0,
and that the spectral norm of the inverse of H is O(\sqrt{n}) with high
probability. More generally, the spectrum of H is delocalized -- with
high probability, there are no eigenvalues in an arbitrary fixed interval
of the optimal length o(n^{-1/2}). The delocalization result also holds
under the fourth moment assumption on the entries of H. These results
improve upon the polynomial singularity bound O(n^{-1/8+epsilon}) due
to Costello, Tao and Vu, and they generalize, up to constant factors,
previous results for distributions whose first few moments match the
moments of the normal distribution (due to the universality results of
Tao and Vu) and for continuous distributions in the bulk of the spectrum
(due to Erd\"os, Schlein and Yau).

This is an announcement for the paper "Commutators on $L_p$, $1\le
p<\infty$" by Detelin Dosev, William B. Johnson, and Gideon Schechtman.
Abstract: The operators on $\LP=L_p[0,1]$, $1\leq p<\infty$, which are
not commutators are those of the form $\lambda I + S$ where
$\lambda\neq 0$ and $S$ belongs to the largest ideal in $\opLP$. The
proof involves new structural results for operators on $\LP$ which are of
independent interest.
