This is an announcement for the paper "Singular twisted sums generated
by complex interpolation" by Jesus M. F. Castillo, Valentin Ferenczi
and Manuel Gonzalez.
Abstract: We present new methods to obtain singular twisted sums
$X\oplus_\Omega X$ (i.e., exact sequences $0\to X\to X\oplus_\Omega X \to
X\to 0$ in which the quotient map is strictly singular), in which $X$
is the interpolation space arising from a complex interpolation scheme
and $\Omega$ is the induced centralizer.
Although our methods are quite general, in our applications we
are mainly concerned with the choice of $X$ as either a Hilbert space,
or Ferenczi's uniformly convex Hereditarily Indecomposable space. In
the first case, we construct new singular twisted Hilbert spaces,
including the only known example so far: the Kalton-Peck space $Z_2$. In
the second case we obtain the first example of an H.I. twisted sum of
an H.I. space. We then use Rochberg's description of iterated twisted
sums to show that there is a sequence $\mathcal F_n$ of H.I. spaces
so that $\mathcal F_{m+n}$ is a singular twisted sum of $\mathcal F_m$
and $\mathcal F_n$, while for $l>n$ the direct sum $\mathcal F_n \oplus
\mathcal F_{l+m}$ is a nontrivial twisted sum of $\mathcal F_l$ and
$\mathcal F_{m+n}$.
We also introduce and study the notion of disjoint singular twisted
sum of K\"othe function spaces and construct several examples involving
reflexive $p$-convex K\"othe function spaces, which include the function
version of the Kalton-Peck space $Z_2$.

This is an announcement for the paper "Note on order-isomorphic isometric
embeddings of some recent function spaces" by Jarno Talponen.
Abstract: We investigate certain recently introduced ODE-determined
varying exponent $L^p$ spaces. It turns out that these spaces are
finitely representable in a concrete universal varying exponent
$\ell^p$ space. Moreover, this can be accomplished in a natural unified
fashion. This leads to order-isomorphic isometric embeddings of all of
the above $L^p$ spaces to an ultrapower of the above varying exponent
$\ell^p$ space.

This is an announcement for the paper "Banach lattice versions of strict
singularity" by Julio Flores, Jordi Lopez-Abad, and Pedro Tradacete.
Abstract: We explore the relation between lattice versions of strict
singularity for operators from a Banach lattice to a Banach space. In
particular, we study when the class of disjointly strictly singular
operators, those not invertible on the span of any disjoint sequence,
coincides with that of lattice strictly singular operators, i.e. those not
invertible on any (infinite dimensional) sublattice. New results are given
which help to clarify the existing relation between these two classes.

This is an announcement for the paper "Approximation property and
nuclearity on mixed-norm $L^p$, modulation and Wiener amalgam spaces"
by Julio Delgado, Michael Ruzhansky and Baoxiang Wang.
Abstract: In this paper we first prove the metric approximation
property for weighted mixed-norm Lebesgue spaces. Then, using Gabor
frame representation we show that the same property holds in weighted
modulation and Wiener amalgam spaces. As a consequence, Grothendieck's
theory becomes applicable, and we give criteria for nuclearity and
r-nuclearity for operators acting on these space as well as derive the
corresponding trace formulae. Finally, we apply the notion of nuclearity
to functions of the harmonic oscillator on modulation spaces.

This is an announcement for the paper "Nigel Kalton and complex
interpolation of compact operators" by Michael Cwikel and Richard
Rochberg.
Abstract: This is the fourth of a series of papers surveying some small
part of the remarkable work of our friend and colleague Nigel Kalton. We
have written it as part of a tribute to his memory. It does not contain
new results. This time we discuss Nigel's partial solutions (obtained
jointly with one of us) of the problem of whether the complex method
of interpolation preserves the compactness of operators. This problem
is now 51 years old and still lacks a complete solution. We also survey
some other partial solutions of this problem, obtained before and after
the above mentioned joint work. We plan a technical sequel to this paper,
which may contain some small new results and will probably conclude this
series devoted to Nigel's research.

This is an announcement for the paper "Diameter two properties in James
spaces" by Julio Becerra Guerrero, Gines Lopez-Perez and Abraham Rueda.
Abstract: We study the diameter two properties in the spaces $JH$,
$JT_\infty$ and $JH_\infty$. We show that the topological dual space of
the previous Banach spaces fails every diameter two property. However,
we prove that $JH$ and $JH_{\infty}$ satisfy the strong diameter two
property, and so the dual norm of these spaces is octahedral. Also we find
a closed hyperplane $M$ of $JH_\infty$ whose topological dual space enjoys
the $w^*$-strong diameter two property and also $M$ and $M^*$ have an
octahedral norm.

This is an announcement for the paper "Subspaces of Banach spaces with big
slices" by Julio Becerra Guerrero, Gines Lopez-Perez and Abraham Rueda.
Abstract: We study when diameter two properties pass down to subspaces. We
obtain that the slice two property (respectively diameter two property,
strong diameter two property) passes down from a Banach space $X$ to
a subspace $Y$ whenever $Y$ is complemented by a norm one projection
with finite-dimensional kernel (respectively the quotient $X/Y$ is
finite dimensional, $X/Y$ is strongly regular). Also we study the same
problem for dual properties of the above ones, as having octahedral,
weakly octahedral or 2-rough norm.

This is an announcement for the paper "Uniqueness, universality, and
homogeneity of the noncommutative Gurarij space" by Martino Lupini.
Abstract: We realize the noncommutative Gurarij space $\mathbb{NG}$
defined by Oikhberg as the Fra\"{\i}ss\'{e} limit of the class of
finite-dimensional $1$-exact operator spaces. As a consequence we deduce
that the noncommutative Gurarij space is unique up to completely isometric
isomorphism, homogeneous, and universal among separable $1$-exact operator
spaces. Moreover we show that $\mathbb{NG}$ is isometrically isomorphic
to the Gurarij Banach space. Therefore $\mathbb{NG}$ can be thought as
a canonical operator space structure on the Gurarij Banach space.

This is an announcement for the paper "Rogers-Shephard inequality for
log-concave functions" by David Alonso-Gutierrez, Bernardo Gonzalez,
C. Hugo Jimenez, and Rafael Villa.
Abstract: In this paper we prove different functional inequalities
extending the classical Rogers-Shephard inequalities for convex
bodies. The original inequalities provide an optimal relation between the
volume of a convex body and the volume of several symmetrizations of the
body, such as, its difference body. We characterize the equality cases
in all these inequalities. Our method is based on the extension of the
notion of a convolution body of two convex sets to any pair of log-concave
functions and the study of some geometrical properties of these new sets.

This is an announcement for the paper "Spectral and asymptotic properties
of contractive semigroups on non-Hilbert spaces" by Jochen Gl\"uck.
Abstract: We analyse $C_0$-semigroups of contractive operators on
real-valued $L^p$-spaces for $p \not= 2$ and on other classes of
non-Hilbert spaces. We show that, under some regularity assumptions on
the semigroup, the geometry of the unit ball of those spaces forces
the semigroup's generator to have only trivial (point) spectrum
on the imaginary axis. This has interesting consequences for the
asymptotic behaviour as $t \to \infty$. For example, we can show that
a contractive and eventually norm continuous $C_0$-semigroup on a
real-valued $L^p$-space automatically converges strongly if $p \not\in
\{1,2,\infty\}$.
