This is an announcement for the paper "An improvement of a theorem of
Heinrich, Mankiewicz, Sims, and Yost" by Trond A. Abrahamsen.
Abstract: Heinrich, Mankiewicz, Sims, and Yost proved that every
separable subspace of a Banach space Y is contained in a separable ideal
in Y. We improve this result by replacing the term "ideal" with the term
"almost isometric ideal". As a consequence of this we obtain, in terms
of subspaces, characterizations of diameter 2 properties, the Daugavet
property along with the properties of being an almost square space and
an octahedral space.

This is an announcement for the paper "Lecture notes on complex
interpolation of compactness" by Michael Cwikel and Richard Rochberg.
Abstract:
Suppose that the linear operator $T$ maps $X_0$ compactly to $Y_0$
and also maps $X_1$ boundedly to $Y_1$. We deal once again with the
51 year old question of whether $T$ also always maps the complex
interpolation space $[X_0,X_1]_\theta$ compactly to $[Y_0,Y_1]_\theta$.
This is a short preliminary version of our promised technical sequel
to our earlier paper arXiv:1410.4527 on this topic.
It contains the following two small new partial results: (i) The answer
to the above question is yes, in the particular case where $Y_0$ is
a UMD-space.
(ii) The answer to the above question is yes for given spaces $X_0$,
$X_1$, $Y_0$ and $Y_1$ if the answer to the "dualized" or
"adjoint" version of the question for the duals of these
particular spaces is yes.
In fact we deduce (i) from (ii) and from an earlier result obtained
jointly by one of us with Nigel Kalton.
It is remarked that a proof of a natural converse of (ii) would
answer the general form of this question completely.

This is an announcement for the paper "Localization and projections on
bi--parameter BMO" by Richard Lechner and Paul F.X. Mueller.
Abstract: We prove that for any operator T on bi--parameter BMO the
identity factors through T or Id - T. As a consequence, bi--parameter
BMO is a primary Banach space. Bourgain's localization method provides
the conceptual framework of our proof. It consists in replacing the
factorization problem on the non--separable Banach space bi--parameter BMO
by its localized, finite dimensional counterpart. We solve the resulting
finite dimensional factorization problems by combinatorics of colored
dyadic rectangles.

This is an announcement for the paper "Hyperplanes in the space
of convergent sequences and preduals of $\ell_1$" by E. Casini,
E. Miglierina, and L. Piasecki.
Abstract: The main aim of the present paper is to investigate various
structural properties of hyperplanes of $c$, the Banach space of the
convergent sequences. In particular, we give an explicit formula for the
projection constants and we prove that an hyperplane of $c$ is isometric
to the whole space if and only if it is $1$-complemented. Moreover,
we obtain the classification of those hyperplanes for which their duals
are isometric to $\ell_{1}$ and we give a complete description of the
preduals of $\ell_{1}$ under the assumption that the standard basis of
$\ell_{1}$ is weak$^{*}$-convergent.

This is an announcement for the paper "A conditional construction of
restricted isometries" by Afonso S. Bandeira, Dustin G. Mixon, and
Joel Moreira.
Abstract: We study the restricted isometry property of a matrix
that is built from the discrete Fourier transform matrix by collecting
rows indexed by quadratic residues. We find an $\epsilon>0$ such that,
conditioned on a folklore conjecture in number theory, this matrix
satisfies the restricted isometry property with sparsity parameter
$K=\Omega(M^{1/2+\epsilon})$, where $M$ is the number of rows.

This is an announcement for the paper "Functional completions of
archimedean vector lattices" by Gerard Buskes and Chris Schwanke.
Abstract: We study completions of Archimedean vector lattices relative to
any nonempty set of positively-homogeneous functions on finite-dimensional
real vector spaces. Examples of such completions include square mean
closed and geometric closed vector lattices, amongst others. These
functional completions also lead to a universal definition of the
complexification of any Archimedean vector lattice and a theory of tensor
products and powers of complex vector lattices in a companion paper.

This is an announcement for the paper "Szemer\'{e}di's regularity lemma
via martingales" by Pandelis Dodos, Vassilis Kanellopoulos and Thodoris
Karageorgos.
Abstract: We prove a variant of the abstract probabilistic version of
Szemer\'{e}di's regularity lemma, due to Tao, which applies to a number
of structures (including graphs, hypergraphs, hypercubes, graphons, and
many more) and works for random variables in $L_p$ for any $p>1$. Our
approach is based on martingale difference sequences.

Abstract: We prove a concentration inequality which asserts that, under

This is an announcement for the paper "The weak bounded approximation
property for $\mathcal A$" by Silvia Lassalle and Pablo Turco.
Abstract: Fixed a Banach operator ideal $\mathcal A$, we introduce and
investigate the weak bounded approximation property for $\mathcal A$,
which is strictly weaker than the bounded approximation property for
$\mathcal A$ of Lima, Lima and Oja (2010). We relate the weak BAP for
$\mathcal A$ with approximation properties given by tensor norms and show
that the metric approximation property of order $p$ of Saphar is the
weak BAP for the ideal of $p'$-summing operators, $1<p<\infty$, $\frac
1p + \frac 1{p'}=1$. Under this framework, we address the question of
approximation properties passing from $X'$ to $X$ or from $X''$ to $X'$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Two refinements of the
Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as modulus" by Mario Chica, Vladimir Kadets,
Miguel Martin, Javier Meri, and Soloviova.
Abstract: Extending the celebrated result by Bishop and Phelps that the
set of norm attaining functionals is always dense in the topological
dual of a Banach space, Bollob\'as proved the nowadays known as the
Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as theorem, which allows to approximate at the same
time a functional and a vector in which it almost attains the norm. Very
recently, two Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as moduli of a Banach space have been
introduced [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 412 (2014), 697--719] to measure, for
a given Banach space, what is the best possible Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as
theorem in this space. In this paper we present two refinements of the
results of that paper. On the one hand, we get a sharp general estimation
of the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as modulus as a function of the norms of
the point and the functional, and we also calculate it in some examples,
including Hilbert spaces. On the other hand, we relate the modulus
of uniform non-squareness with the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as modulus
obtaining, in particular, a simpler and quantitative proof of the fact
that a uniformly non-square Banach space cannot have the maximum value
of the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as modulus.
