This is an announcement for the paper "Spaces of continuous functions over Dugundji compacta" by Taras Banakh and Wieslaw Kubis. Abstract: We show that for every Dugundji compact $K$ the Banach space $C(K)$ is $1$-Plichko and the space $P(K)$ of probability measures on $K$ is Valdivia compact. Combining this result with the existence of a non-Valdivia compact group, we answer a question of Kalenda.

This is an announcement for the paper "On the best constants in noncommutative Khintchine-type inequalities" by Uffe Haagerup and Magdalena Musat. Abstract: We obtain new proofs with improved constants of the Khintchine-type inequality with matrix coefficients in two cases. The first case is the Pisier and Lust-Piquard noncommutative Khintchine inequality for $p=1$\,, where we obtain the sharp lower bound of $\frac1{\sqrt{2}}$ in the complex Gaussian case and for the sequence of functions $\{e^{i2^nt}\}_{n=1}^\infty$\,. The second case is Junge's recent Khintchine-type inequality for subspaces of the operator space $R\oplus C$\,, which he used to construct a cb-embedding of the operator Hilbert space $OH$ into the predual of a hyperfinite factor. Also in this case, we obtain a sharp lower bound of $\frac1{\sqrt{2}}$\,. As a consequence, it follows that any subspace of a quotient of $(R\oplus C)^*$ is cb-isomorphic to a subspace of the predual of the hyperfinite factor of type $III_1$\,, with cb-isomorphism constant $\leq \sqrt{2}$\,. In particular, the operator Hilbert space $OH$ has this property.

Abstract of a paper by Greg Kuperberg

This is an announcement for the paper "From the Mahler conjecture to Gauss linking integrals" by Greg Kuperberg. Abstract: We establish a version of the bottleneck conjecture, which in turn implies a partial solution to the Mahler conjecture on the product $v(K) = (\Vol K)(\Vol K^\circ)$ of the volume of a symmetric convex body $K \in \R^n$ and its polar body $K^\circ$. The Mahler conjecture asserts that the Mahler volume $v(K)$ is minimized (non-uniquely) when $K$ is an $n$-cube. The bottleneck conjecture (in its least general form) asserts that the volume of a certain domain $K^\diamond \subset K \times K^\dual$ is minimized when $K$ is an ellipsoid. It implies the Mahler conjecture up to a factor of $(\pi/4)^n \gamma_n$, where $\gamma_n$ is a monotonic factor that begins at $4/\pi$ and converges to $\sqrt{2}$. This strengthen a result of Bourgain and Milman, who showed that there is a constant $c$ such that the Mahler conjecture is true up to a factor of $c^n$. The proof uses a version of the Gauss linking integral to obtain a constant lower bound on $\Vol K^\diamond$, with equality when $K$ is an ellipsoid. The proof applies to a more general bottleneck conjecture concerning the join of any two necks of complementary pseudospheres in an indefinite inner product space. Because the calculations are similar, we will also analyze traditional Gauss linking integrals in the sphere $S^{n-1}$ and in hyperbolic space $H^{n-1}$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Embedding vector-valued Besov spaces into spaces of $\gamma$-radonifying operators" by Nigel Kalton, Jan van Neerven, Mark Veraar, and Lutz Weis. Abstract: It is shown that a Banach space $E$ has type $p$ if and only for some (all) $d\ge 1$ the Besov space $B_{p,p}^{(\frac1p-\frac12)d}(\R^d;E)$ embeds into the space $\g(L^2(\R^d),E)$ of $\g$-radonifying operators $L^2(\R^d)\to E$. A similar result characterizing cotype $q$ is obtained. These results may be viewed as $E$-valued extensions of the classical Sobolev embedding theorems.

This is an announcement for the paper "Stochastic integration in UMD Banach spaces" by Jan van Neerven, Mark Veraar, Lutz Weis. Abstract: In this paper we construct a theory of stochastic integration of processes with values in $\calL(H,E)$, where $H$ is a separable Hilbert space and $E$ is a UMD Banach space. The integrator is an $H$-cylindrical Brownian motion. Our approach is based on a two-sided $L^p$-decoupling inequality for UMD spaces due to Garling, which is combined with the theory of stochastic integration of $\calL(H,E)$-valued functions introduced recently by two of the authors. We obtain various characterizations of the stochastic integral and prove versions of the It\^o isometry, the Burkholder-Davis-Gundy inequalities, and the representation theorem for Brownian martingales.

This is an announcement for the paper "On asymptotic transitivity in Banach spaces" by J. Talponen. Abstract: We introduce a flexible almost isometric version of the almost transitivity property of Banach spaces. With the help of this new notion we generalize to several directions a strong recent rotational characterization of Hilbert spaces due to Randrianantoanina. This chracterization is a partial answer to the classical Banach-Mazur rotation problem.

This is an announcement for the paper "A c_0-saturated Banach space with no long unconditional basic sequences" by Jordi Lopez Abad and Stevo Todorcevic. Abstract: We present a Banach space $\mathfrak X$ with a Schauder basis of length $\omega\_1$ which is saturated by copies of $c\_0$ and such that for every closed decomposition of a closed subspace $X=X\_0\oplus X\_1$, either $X\_0$ or $X\_1$ has to be separable. This can be considered as the non-separable counterpart of the notion of hereditarily indecomposable space. Indeed, the subspaces of $\mathfrak X$ have ``few operators'' in the sense that every bounded operator $T:X \rightarrow \mathfrak{X}$ from a subspace $X$ of $\mathfrak{X}$ into $\mathfrak{X}$ is the sum of a multiple of the inclusion and a $\omega\_1$-singular operator, i.e., an operator $S$ which is not an isomorphism on any non-separable subspace of $X$. We also show that while $\mathfrak{X}$ is not distortable (being $c\_0$-saturated), it is arbitrarily $\omega\_1$-distortable in the sense that for every $\lambda>1$ there is an equivalent norm $\||\cdot \||$ on $\mathfrak{X}$ such that for every non-separable subspace $X$ of $\mathfrak{X}$ there are $x,y\in S\_X$ such that $\||\cdot \|| / \||\cdot \||\ge \la$.
