This is an announcement for the paper "Strong peak points and
denseness of strong peak functions" by Han Ju Lee.
Abstract: Let $C_b(K)$ be the set of all bounded continuous (real
or complex) functions on a complete metric space $K$ and $A$ a
closed subspace of $C_b(K)$. Using the variational method, it is
shown that the set of all strong peak functions in $A$ is dense if
and only if the set of all strong peak points is a norming subset
of $A$. As a corollary we show that if $X$ is a locally uniformly
convex, complex Banach space, then the set of all strong peak
functions in $\mathcal{A}(B_X)$ is a dense $G_\delta$ subset.
Moreover if $X$ is separable, smooth and locally uniformly convex,
then the set of all norm and numerical strong peak functions in
$\mathcal{A}_u(B_X:X)$ is a dense $G_\delta$ subset. In case that
a set of uniformly strongly exposed points of a (real or complex)
Banach space $X$ is a norming subset of $\mathcal{P}({}^n X)$ for
some $n\ge 1$, then the set of all strongly norm attaining elements
in $\mathcal{P}({}^n X)$ is dense, in particular, the set of all
points at which the norm of $\mathcal{P}({}^n X)$ is Fr\'echet
differentiable is a dense $G_\delta$ subset.

This is an announcement for the paper "Convex-transitive characterizations
of Hilbert spaces" by Jarno Talponen.
Abstract: In this paper we investigate real convex-transitive Banach
spaces X, which admit a 1-dimensional bicontractive projection P
on X. Various mild conditions regarding the weak topology and the
geometry of the norm are provided, which guarantee that such an X
is in fact isometrically a Hilbert space. The results obtained can
be regarded as partial answers to the well-known Banach-Mazur
rotation problem, as well as to a question posed by B. Randrianantoanina
in 2002 about convex-transitive spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Weakly null sequences with
upper estimates" by Daniel Freeman.
Abstract: We prove that if $(v_i)$ is a normalized basic sequence
and X is a Banach space such that every normalized weakly null
sequence in X has a subsequence that is dominated by $(v_i)$, then
there exists a uniform constant $C\geq1$ such that every normalized
weakly null sequence in X has a subsequence that is C-dominated by
$(v_i)$. This extends a result of Knaust and Odell, who proved this
for the cases in which $(v_i)$ is the standard basis for $\ell_p$
or $c_0$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Metrical characterization
of super-reflexivity and linear type of Banach spaces" by Florent
Baudier.
Abstract: We prove that a Banach space X is not super-reflexive if
and only if the hyperbolic infinite tree embeds metrically into X.
We improve one implication of J.Bourgain's result who gave a metrical
characterization of super-reflexivity in Banach spaces in terms of
uniforms embeddings of the finite trees. A characterization of the
linear type for Banach spaces is given using the embedding of the
infinite tree equipped with a suitable metric.

This is an announcement for the paper "Even infinite dimensional
real Banach spaces" by Valentin Ferenczi and Eloi Medina Galego.
Abstract: This article is a continuation of a paper of the first
author \cite{F} about complex structures on real Banach spaces. We
define a notion of even infinite dimensional real Banach space, and
prove that there exist even spaces, including HI or unconditional
examples from \cite{F} and $C(K)$ examples due to Plebanek \cite{P}.
We extend results of \cite{F} relating the set of complex structures
up to isomorphism on a real space to a group associated to inessential
operators on that space, and give characterizations of even spaces
in terms of this group. We also generalize results of \cite{F} about
totally incomparable complex structures to essentially incomparable
complex structures, while showing that the complex version of a
space defined by S. Argyros and A. Manoussakis \cite{AM} provide
examples of essentially incomparable complex structures which are
not totally incomparable.

This is an announcement for the paper "Examples and counterexamples
of type I isometric shifts" by Jesus Araujo.
Abstract: We provide examples of nonseparable spaces $X$ for which
$C(X)$ admits an isometric shift of type I, which solves in the
negative a problem proposed by Gutek {\em et al.} (J. Funct. Anal.
{\bf 101} (1991), 97-119). We also give two independent methods for
obtaining separable examples. The first one allows us in particular
to construct examples with infinitely many nonhomeomorphic components
in a subset of the Hilbert space $\ell^2$. The second one applies
for instance to sequences adjoined to any $n$-dimensional compact
manifold (for $n \ge 2$) or to the Sierpi\'nski curve. The combination
of both techniques lead to different examples involving a convergent
sequence adjoined to the Cantor set: one method for the case when
the sequence converges to a point in the Cantor set, and the other
one for the case when it converges outside.

This is an announcement for the paper "Intersection bodies and
generalized cosine transforms" by Boris Rubin.
Abstract: Intersection bodies represent a remarkable class of
geometric objects associated with sections of star bodies and
invoking Radon transforms, generalized cosine transforms, and the
relevant Fourier analysis. We review some known facts and give them
new proofs. The main focus is interrelation between generalized
cosine transforms of different kinds and their application to
investigation of certain family of intersection bodies, which we
call lambda-intersection bodies. The latter include k-intersection
bodies (in the sense of A. Koldobsky) and unit balls of finite-dimensional
subspaces of $L_p$-spaces. In particular, we show that restriction
of the spherical Radon transforms and the generalized cosine
transforms onto lower dimensional subspaces preserves their
integral-geometric structure. We apply this result to the study
of sections of lambda-intersection bodies. A number of new
characterizations of this class of bodies and examples are given.

This is an announcement for the paper "Khinchin's inequality,
Dunford--Pettis and compact operators on the space $\pmb{C([0,1],X)}$"
by Dumitru Popa.
Abstract: We prove that if $X,Y$ are Banach spaces, $\Omega$ a
compact Hausdorff space and $U\hbox{\rm :}\ C(\Omega,X)\rightarrow
Y$ is a bounded linear operator, and if $U$ is a Dunford--Pettis
operator the range of the representing measure $G(\Sigma) \subseteq
DP(X,Y)$ is an uniformly Dunford--Pettis family of operators and
$\|G\|$ is continuous at $\emptyset$. As applications of this result
we give necessary and/or sufficient conditions that some bounded
linear operators on the space $C([0,1],X)$ with values in $c_{0}$
or $l_{p}$, ($1\leq p<\infty$) be Dunford--Pettis and/or compact
operators, in which, Khinchin's inequality plays an important role.
