This is an announcement for the paper "A simple construction of almost-Euclidean subspaces of $\ell_1^N$ via tensor products" by Piotr Indyk and Stanislaw Szarek. Abstract: It has been known since 1970's that the N-dimensional $\ell_1$-space contains nearly Euclidean subspaces whose dimension is $\Omega(N)$. However, proofs of existence of such subspaces were probabilistic, hence non-constructive, which made the results not-quite-suitable for subsequently discovered applications to high-dimensional nearest neighbor search, error-correcting codes over the reals, compressive sensing and other computational problems. In this paper we present a "low-tech" scheme which, for any $a > 0$, allows to exhibit nearly Euclidean $\Omega(N)$-dimensional subspaces of $\ell_1^N$ while using only $N^a$ random bits. Our results extend and complement (particularly) recent work by Guruswami-Lee-Wigderson. Characteristic features of our approach include (1) simplicity (we use only tensor products) and (2) yielding arbitrarily small distortions, or "almost Euclidean" subspaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "A new metric invariant for Banach spaces" by F. Baudier, N. J. Kalton, and G. Lancien. Abstract: We show that if the Szlenk index of a Banach space $X$ is larger than the first infinite ordinal $\omega$ or if the Szlenk index of its dual is larger than $\omega$, then the tree of all finite sequences of integers equipped with the hyperbolic distance metrically embeds into $X$. We show that the converse is true when $X$ is assumed to be reflexive. As an application, we exhibit new classes of Banach spaces that are stable under coarse-Lipschitz embeddings and therefore under uniform homeomorphisms.

This is an announcement for the paper "A coanalytic rank on super-ergodic operators" by Mohammed Yahdi. Abstract: Techniques from Descriptive Set Theory are applied in order to study the Topological Complexity of families of operators naturally connected to ergodic operators in infinite dimensional Banach Spaces. The families of ergodic, uniform-ergodic,Cesaro-bounded and power-bounded operators are shown to be Borel sets, while the family of super-ergodic operators is shown to be either coanalytic or Borel according to specific structures of the Space. Moreover, trees and coanalytic ranks are introduced to characterize super-ergodic operators as well as spaces where the above classes of operators do not coincide.

This is an announcement for the paper "Some new thin sets of integers in Harmonic Analysis" by Daniel Li, Herve Queffelec, Luis Rodriguez-Piazza. Abstract: We randomly construct various subsets $\Lambda$ of the integers which have both smallness and largeness properties. They are small since they are very close, in various meanings, to Sidon sets: the continuous functions with spectrum in $\Lambda$ have uniformly convergent series, and their Fourier coefficients are in $\ell_p$ for all $p>1$; moreover, all the Lebesgue spaces $L^q_\Lambda$ are equal for $q<+\infty$. On the other hand, they are large in the sense that they are dense in the Bohr group and that the space of the bounded functions with spectrum in $\Lambda$ is non separable. So these sets are very different from the thin sets of integers previously known.

This is an announcement for the paper "Restricted eigenvalue conditions on subgaussian random matrices" by Shuheng Zhou. Abstract: It is natural to ask: what kinds of matrices satisfy the Restricted Eigenvalue (RE) condition? In this paper, we associate the RE condition (Bickel-Ritov-Tsybakov 09) with the complexity of a subset of the sphere in $\R^p$, where $p$ is the dimensionality of the data, and show that a class of random matrices with independent rows, but not necessarily independent columns, satisfy the RE condition, when the sample size is above a certain lower bound. Here we explicitly introduce an additional covariance structure to the class of random matrices that we have known by now that satisfy the Restricted Isometry Property as defined in Candes and Tao 05 (and hence the RE condition), in order to compose a broader class of random matrices for which the RE condition holds. In this case, tools from geometric functional analysis in characterizing the intrinsic low-dimensional structures associated with the RE condition has been crucial in analyzing the sample complexity and understanding its statistical implications for high dimensional data.

This is an announcement for the paper "Weighted composition operators as Daugavet centers" by Romain Demazeux. Abstract: We investigate the norm identity $\|uC_\varphi + T\| = \|u\|_\infty + \|T\|$ for classes of operators on $C(S)$, where $S$ is a compact Hausdorff space without isolated point, and characterize those weighted composition operators which satisfy this equation for every weakly compact operator $T : C(S)\to C(S)$. We also give a characterization of such weighted composition operator acting on the disk algebra $A(D).$ Archive classification: math.FA Mathematics Subject Classification: 47B33, 47B38,46E15 Remarks: 18 pages The source file(s), Weighted_composition_operators_as_Daugavet_centers.tex: 57655 bytes, is(are) stored in gzipped form as 0912.4032.gz with size 15kb.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the Rademacher maximal function" by Mikko Kemppainen. Abstract: This paper studies a new maximal operator introduced by Hyt\"onen, McIntosh and Portal in 2008 for functions taking values in a Banach space. The L^p-boundedness of this operator depends on the range space; certain requirements on type and cotype are present for instance. The original Euclidean definition of the maximal function is generalized to sigma-finite measure spaces with filtrations and the L^p-boundedness is shown not to depend on the underlying measure space or the filtration. Martingale techniques are applied to prove that a weak type inequality is sufficient for L^p-boundedness and also to provide a characterization by concave functions.

This is an announcement for the paper "Borel reducibility and Holder($\alpha$) embeddability between Banach spaces" by Longyun Ding. Abstract: We investigate Borel reducibility between equivalence relations $E(X,p)=X^{\Bbb N}/\ell_p(X)$'s where $X$ is a separable Banach space. We show that this reducibility is related to the so called H\"older$(\alpha)$ embeddability between Banach spaces. By using the notions of type and cotype of Banach spaces, we present many results on reducibility and unreducibility between $E(L_r,p)$'s and $E(c_0,p)$'s for $r,p\in[1,+\infty)$. We also answer a problem presented by Kanovei in the affirmative by showing that $C({\Bbb R}^+)/C_0({\Bbb R}^+)$ is Borel bireducible to ${\Bbb R}^{\Bbb N}/c_0$.
