This is an announcement for the paper "Rainwater-Simons-type convergence
theorems for generalized convergence methods" by Jan-David Hardtke.
Abstract: We extend the well-known Rainwater-Simons convergence theorem to
various generalized convergence methods such as strong matrix summability,
statistical convergence and almost convergence. In fact we prove these
theorems not only for boundaries but for the more general notion of
(I)-generating sets introduced by Fonf and Lindenstrauss.

This is an announcement for the paper "The symmetric property tau for
the Gaussian measure" by Joseph Lehec.
Abstract: We give a proof based on the Poincar\'e inequality of the
symmetric property tau for the Gaussian measure. This property turns out
to be equivalent to a certain functional form of the Blaschke-Santal\'o
inequality, as explained in a paper by Artstein, Klartag and Milman.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the Yao-Yao partition theorem"
by Joseph Lehec.
Abstract: The Yao-Yao partition theorem states that given a probability
measure on an affine space of dimension n having a density which is
continuous and bounded away from 0, it is possible to partition the
space into 2^n regions of equal measure in such a way that every affine
hyperplane avoids at least one of the regions. We give a constructive
proof of this result and extend it to slightly more general measures.

This is an announcement for the paper "A direct proof of the functional
Santalo inequality" by Joseph Lehec.
Abstract: We give a simple proof of a functional version of the
Blaschke-Santalo inequality due to Artstein, Klartag and Milman. The proof
is by induction on the dimension and does not use the Blaschke-Santalo
inequality.

This is an announcement for the paper "Maximal theorems and square
functions for analytic operators on Lp-spaces" by Christian Le Merdy
and Quanhua Xu.
Abstract: Let T : Lp --> Lp be a contraction, with p strictly between
1 and infinity, and assume that T is analytic, that is, there exists a
constant K such that n\norm{T^n-T^{n-1}} < K for any positive integer
n. Under the assumption that T is positive (or contractively regular), we
establish the boundedness of various Littlewood-Paley square functions
associated with T. As a consequence we show maximal inequalities
of the form $\norm{\sup_{n\geq 0}\, (n+1)^m\bigl\vert T^n(T-I)^m(x)
\bigr\vert}_p\,\lesssim\, \norm{x}_p$, for any nonnegative integer
m. We prove similar results in the context of noncommutative Lp-spaces.
We also give analogs of these maximal inequalities for bounded analytic
semigroups, as well as applications to R-boundedness properties.

This is an announcement for the paper "Interpolating thin-shell and
sharp large-deviation estimates for isotropic log-concave measures"
by Olivier Guedon and Emanuel Milman.
Abstract: Given an isotropic random vector $X$ with log-concave density
in Euclidean space $\Real^n$, we study the concentration properties
of $|X|$. We show in particular that: \[ \P(|X| \geq (1+t) \sqrt{n})
\leq \exp(-c n^{\frac{1}{2}} \min(t^3,t)) \;\;\; \forall t > 0 ~,
\] for some universal constant $c>0$. This improves the best known
deviation results above the expectation on the thin-shell and mesoscopic
scales due to Fleury and Klartag, respectively, and recovers the sharp
large-deviation estimate of Paouris. Another new feature of our estimate
is that it improves when $X$ is $\psi_\alpha$ ($\alpha \in (1,2]$), in
precise agreement with the sharp Paouris estimates. The upper bound on
the thin-shell width $\sqrt{\Var(|X|)}$ we obtain is of the order of
$n^{1/3}$, and improves down to $n^{1/4}$ when $X$ is $\psi_2$. Our
estimates thus continuously interpolate between a new best known
thin-shell estimate and the sharp Paouris large-deviation one.

This is an announcement for the paper "Average best $m$-term
approximation" by Jan Vybiral.
Abstract: We introduce the concept of average best $m$-term
approximation widths with respect to a probability measure on the unit
ball of $\ell_p^n$. We estimate these quantities for the embedding
$id:\ell_p^n\to\ell_q^n$ with $0<p\le q\le \infty$ for the normalized
cone and surface measure. Furthermore, we consider certain tensor product
weights and show that a typical vector with respect to such a measure
exhibits a strong compressible (i.e. nearly sparse) structure.

This is an announcement for the paper "Extracting long basic sequences
from systems of dispersed vectors" by Jarno Talponen.
Abstract: We study Banach spaces satisfying some geometric or
structural properties involving tightness of transfinite sequences of
nested linear subspaces. These properties are much weaker than WCG and
closely related to Corson's property (C). Given a transfinite sequence
of normalized vectors, which is dispersed or null in some sense, we
extract a subsequence which is a biorthogonal sequence, or even a weakly
null monotone basic sequence, depending on the setting. The Separable
Complementation Property is established for spaces with an M-basis under
rather weak geometric properties. We also consider an analogy of the
Baire Category Theorem for the lattice of closed linear subspaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Invertibility threshold for
$H^\infty$ trace algebras, and effective matrix inversions" by Nikolai
Nikolski and Vasily Vasyunin.
Abstract: For a given $\delta$, $0<\delta<1$, a
Blaschke sequence $\sigma=\{\lambda_j\}$ is constructed
such that every function $f$, $f\in H^\infty$, having
$\delta<\delta_f=\inf_{\lambda\in\sigma}|f(\lambda)|\le\|f\|_\infty\le1$
is invertible in the trace algebra $H^\infty|\sigma$ (with a norm estimate
of the inverse depending on $\delta_f$ only), but there exists $f$ with
$\delta=\delta_f\le\|f\|_\infty\le1$, which does not. As an application,
a counterexample to a stronger form of the Bourgain--Tzafriri restricted
invertibility conjecture for bounded operators is exhibited, where an
``orthogonal (or unconditional) basis'' is replaced by a ``summation
block orthogonal basis''.

Dear Colleagues,
In addition to my original message about the website in honor of Nigel Kalton, appended below, I'd like to ask all co-authors of Nigel to send me pdf files of ALL their joint papers with him.
Please send only journal pdf's, not preprint versions. After obtaining permission from publishers (we already have permission from some publishers), we will post these pdf files on the Kalton website.
Many thanks for your cooperation,
Fritz Gesztesy

We hope to be able to post downloadable pdf files of his works, supply a list of his students and co-authors, indicate his editorial activity, establish a photo gallery, and comment on some of his other significant activities, such as playing chess. We also plan to have a section in which students, collaborators, and friends will be able to recall fond reminiscences and express their appreciation of Nigel.
