This is an announcement for the paper "Embedding of $C_q$ and $R_q$
into noncommutative $L_p$-spaces, $1\le p<q\le 2$" by Quanhua Xu.
Abstract: We prove that a quotient of subspace of $C_p\oplus_pR_p$
($1\le p<2$) embeds completely isomorphically into a noncommutative
$L_p$-space, where $C_p$ and $R_p$ are respectively the $p$-column and
$p$-row Hilbertian operator spaces. We also represent $C_q$ and $R_q$
($p<q\le2$) as quotients of subspaces of $C_p\oplus_pR_p$. Consequently,
$C_q$ and $R_q$ embed completely isomorphically into a noncommutative
$L_p(M)$. We further show that the underlying von Neumann algebra $M$
cannot be semifinite.

This is an announcement for the paper "Operator space Grothendieck
inequalities for noncommutative $L_p$-spaces" by Quanhua Xu.
Abstract: We prove the operator space Grothendieck inequality for bilinear
forms on subspaces of noncommutative $L_p$-spaces with $2<p<\infty$. One
of our results states that given a map $u: E\to F^*$, where $E,
F\subset L_p(M)$ ($2<p<\infty$, $M$ being a von Neumann algebra),
$u$ is completely bounded iff $u$ factors through a direct sum of a
$p$-column space and a $p$-row space. We also obtain several operator
space versions of the classical little Grothendieck inequality for maps
defined on a subspace of a noncommutative $L_p$-space ($2<p<\infty$)
with values in a $q$-column space for every $q\in [p', p]$ ($p'$ being
the index conjugate to $p$). These results are the $L_p$-space analogues
of the recent works on the operator space Grothendieck theorems by
Pisier and Shlyakhtenko. The key ingredient of our arguments is some
Khintchine type inequalities for Shlyakhtenko's generalized circular
systems. One of our main tools is a Haagerup type tensor norm, which turns
out particularly fruitful when applied to subspaces of noncommutative
$L_p$-spaces ($2<p<\infty$). In particular, we show that the norm dual
to this tensor norm, when restricted to subspaces of noncommutative
$L_p$-spaces, is equal to the factorization norm through a $p$-row space.

This is an announcement for the paper "Vector-valued
Littlewood-Paley-Stein theory for semigroups" by Teresa Martinez, Jose
L. Torrea and Quanhua Xu.
Abstract: We develop a generalized Littlewood-Paley theory for semigroups
acting on $L^p$-spaces of functions with values in uniformly convex or
smooth Banach spaces. We characterize, in the vector-valued setting,
the validity of the one-sided inequalities concerning the generalized
Littlewood-Paley-Stein $g$-function associated with a subordinated
Poisson symmetric diffusion semigroup by the martingale cotype and type
properties of the underlying Banach space. We show that in the case of
the usual Poisson semigroup and the Poisson semigroup subordinated to
the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup on ${\mathbb R}^n$, this general theory
becomes more satisfactory (and easier to be handled) in virtue of the
theory of vector-valued Calder\'on-Zygmund singular integral operators.

This is an announcement for the paper "Khintchine type inequalities for
reduced free products and applications" by Eric Ricard and Quanhua Xu.
Abstract: We prove Khintchine type inequalities for words of a fixed
length in a reduced free product of $C^*$-algebras (or von Neumann
algebras). These inequalities imply that the natural projection from a
reduced free product onto the subspace generated by the words of a fixed
length $d$ is completely bounded with norm depending linearly on $d$. We
then apply these results to various approximation properties on reduced
free products. As a first application, we give a quick proof of Dykema's
theorem on the stability of exactness under the reduced free product for
$C^*$-algebras. We next study the stability of the completely contractive
approximation property (CCAP) under reduced free product. Our first result
in this direction is that a reduced free product of finite dimensional
$C^*$-algebras has the CCAP. The second one asserts that a von Neumann
reduced free product of injective von Neumann algebras has the weak-$*$
CCAP. In the case of group $C^*$-algebras, we show that a free product
of weakly amenable groups with constant 1 is weakly amenable.

This is an announcement for the paper "Seven views on approximate
convexity and the geometry of K-spaces" by Felix Cabello Sanchez, Jesus
M. F. Castillo and Pier Luigi Papini.
Abstract: As in Hokusai's series of paintings "Thirty six views of
mount Fuji" in which mount Fuji's is sometimes scarcely visible, the
central topic of this paper is the geometry of $K$-spaces although in
some of the seven views presented $K$-spaces are not easily visible. We
study the interplay between the behaviour of approximately convex (and
approximately affine) functions on the unit ball of a Banach space and
the geometry of Banach K-spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Extension of functions with small
oscillation" by Denny H. Leung and Wee-Kee Tang.
Abstract: A classical theorem of Kuratowski says that every Baire one
function on a G_\delta subspace of a Polish (= separable completely
metrizable) space X can be extended to a Baire one function on X. Kechris
and Louveau introduced a finer gradation of Baire one functions into
small Baire classes. A Baire one function f is assigned into a class
in this heirarchy depending on its oscillation index \beta(f). We
prove a refinement of Kuratowski's theorem: if Y is a subspace
of a metric space X and f is a real-valued function on Y such that
\beta_{Y}(f)<\omega^{\alpha}, \alpha < \omega_1, then f has an extension
F onto X so that \beta_X(F)is not more than \omega^{\alpha}. We also
show that if f is a continuous real valued function on Y, then f has an
extension F onto X so that \beta_{X}(F)is not more than 3. An example
is constructed to show that this result is optimal.

This is an announcement for the paper "A new proof of James' sup theorem"
by Marianne Morillon.
Abstract: We provide a new proof of James' sup theorem for (non
necessarily separable) Banach spaces. One of the ingredients is the
following generalization of a theorem of Hagler and Johnson (1977) :
"If a normed space $E$ does not contain any asymptotically isometric copy
of $\ell^1(\IN)$, then every bounded sequence of $E'$ has a normalized
block sequence pointwise converging to $0$".
