This is an announcement for the paper "On Gateaux differentiability
of pointwise Lipschitz mappings" by Jakub Duda.
Abstract: We prove that for every function $f:X\to Y$, where $X$
is a separable Banach space and $Y$ is a Banach space with RNP,
there exists a set $A\in\tilde\mcA$ such that $f$ is Gateaux
differentiable at all $x\in S(f)\setminus A$, where $S(f)$ is the
set of points where $f$ is pointwise-Lipschitz. This improves a
result of Bongiorno. As a corollary, we obtain that every $K$-monotone
function on a separable Banach space is Hadamard differentiable
outside of a set belonging to $\tilde\mcC$; this improves a result
due to Borwein and Wang. Another corollary is that if $X$ is
Asplund, $f:X\to\R$ cone monotone, $g:X\to\R$ continuous convex,
then there exists a point in $X$, where $f$ is Hadamard differentiable
and $g$ is Frechet differentiable.

This is an announcement for the paper "Basic topological and geometric
properties of Cesaro--Orlicz spaces" by Yunan Cui, Henryk Hudzik,
Narin Petrot, Suthep Suantai and Alicja Szymaszkiewicz.
Abstract: Necessary and sufficient conditions under which the
Cesaro--Orlicz sequence space $\cfi$ is nontrivial are presented.
It is proved that for the Luxemburg norm, Cesaro--Orlicz spaces
$\cfi$ have the Fatou property. Consequently, the spaces are
complete. It is also proved that the subspace of order continuous
elements in $\cfi$ can be defined in two ways. Finally, criteria
for strict monotonicity, uniform monotonicity and rotundity (=
strict convexity) of the spaces $\cfi$ are given.

This is an announcement for the paper "Volume inequalities for
isotropic measures" by Erwin Lutwak, Deane Yang, and Gaoyong Zhang.
Abstract: A direct approach to Ball's simplex inequality is presented.
This approach, which does not use the Brascamp-Lieb inequality,
also gives Barthe's characterization of the simplex for Ball's
inequality and extends it from discrete to arbitrary measures. It
also yields the dual inequality, along with equality conditions,
and it does both for arbitrary measures.

This is an announcement for the paper "Quotient normed cones" by
Oscar Valero.
Abstract: Given a normed cone $(X,p)$ and a subcone $Y,$ we construct
and study the quotient normed cone $(X/Y,\tilde{p})$ generated by
$Y$. In particular we characterize the bicompleteness of $(X/Y,\tilde{p})$
in terms of the bicompleteness of $(X,p),$ and prove that the dual
quotient cone $((X/Y)^{*},\|\cdot \|_{\tilde{p},u})$ can be identified
as a distinguished subcone of the dual cone $(X^{*},\|\cdot \|_{p,u})$.
Furthermore, some parts of the theory are presented in the general
setting of the space $CL(X,Y)$ of all continuous linear mappings
from a normed cone $(X,p)$ to a normed cone $(Y,q),$ extending
several well-known results related to open continuous linear mappings
between normed linear spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Composite cosine transforms"
by E. Ournycheva and B. Rubin.
Abstract: The cosine transforms of functions on the unit sphere
play an important role in convex geometry, the Banach space theory,
stochastic geometry and other areas. Their higher-rank generalization
to Grassmann manifolds represents an interesting mathematical object
useful for applications. We introduce more general integral transforms
that reveal distinctive features of higher-rank objects in full
generality. We call these new transforms the composite cosine
transforms, by taking into account that their kernels agree with
the composite power function of the cone of positive definite
symmetric matrices. We show that injectivity of the composite cosine
transforms can be studied using standard tools of the Fourier
analysis on matrix spaces. In the framework of this approach, we
introduce associated generalized zeta integrals and give new simple
proofs to the relevant functional relations. Our technique is based
on application of the higher-rank Radon transform on matrix spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "On unitary representability
of topological groups" by Jorge Galindo.
Abstract: We prove that the additive group $(E^\ast,\tau_k(E))$ of
an $\mathscr{L}_\infty$-Banach space $E$, with the topology $\tau_k(E)$
of uniform convergence on compact subsets of $E$, is topologically
isomorphic to a subgroup of the unitary group of some Hilbert space
(is \emph{unitarily representable}). This is the same as proving
that the topological group $(E^\ast,\tau_k(E))$ is uniformly
homeomorphic to a subset of $\ell_2^\kappa$ for some $\kappa$.
As an immediate consequence, preduals of commutative von Neumann
algebras or duals of commutative $C^\ast$-algebras are unitarily
representable in the topology of uniform convergence on compact
subsets. The unitary representability of free locally convex spaces
(and thus of free Abelian topological groups) on compact spaces,
follows as well.
The above facts cannot be extended to noncommutative von Neumann
algebras or general Schwartz spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Complex interpolation of
compact operators mapping into the couple (FL^{\infty},FL_{1}^{\infty})"
by Michael Cwikel and Svante Janson.
Abstract: If (A_0,A_1) and (B_0,B_1) are Banach couples and a linear
operator T from A_0 + A_1 to B_0 + B_1 maps A_0 compactly into B_0
and maps A_1 boundedly into B_1, does T necessarily also map
[A_0,A_1]_s compactly into [B_0,B_1]_s for s in (0,1)?
After 42 years this question is still not answered, not even in
the case where T is also compact from A_1 to B_1. But affirmative
answers are known for many special choices of (A_0,A_1) and (B_0,B_1).
Furthermore it is known that it would suffice to resolve this
question in the special case where (B_0,B_1) is the special couple
(l^\infty(FL^\infty), l^\infty(FL^\infty_1)). Here FL^\infty is the
space of all sequences which are Fourier coefficients of bounded
functions, FL^\infty_1 is the weighted space of all sequences (a_n)
such that (e^n a_n) is in FL^\infty, and thus B_0 and B_1 are the
spaces of bounded sequences of elements in these spaces (i.e., they
are spaces of doubly indexed sequences).
We provide an affirmative answer to this question in the related
but simpler case where (B_0,B_1) is the special couple
(FL^\infty,FL^\infty_1).
