This is an announcement for the paper "On the fixed point property in direct sums of Banach spaces with strictly monotone norms" by Stanislaw Prus and Andrzej Wisnicki.
Abstract: It is shown that if a Banach space X has the super fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings or admits a 1-unconditional basis and Y satisfies property asymptotic (P) (which is weaker than the condition WCS(Y)>1), then the direct sum of X and Y endowed with a strictly monotone norm enjoys the weak fixed point property.
