This is an announcement for the paper “Normal tilings of a Banach space and its ball” by Robert Devillehttps://arxiv.org/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Deville%2C+R, Miguel García-Bravohttps://arxiv.org/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Garc%C3%ADa-Bravo%2C+M.

Abstract: We show some new results about tilings in Banach spaces. A tiling of a Banach space $X$ is a covering by closed sets with non-empty interior so that they have pairwise disjoint interiors. If moreover the tiles have inner radii uniformly bounded from below, and outer radii uniformly bounded from above, we say that the tiling is normal. In 2010 Preiss constructed a convex normal tiling of the separable Hilbert space. For Banach spaces with Schauder basis we will show that Preiss' result is still true with starshaped tiles instead of convex ones. Also, whenever $X$ is uniformly convex we give precise constructions of convex normal tilings of the unit sphere, the unit ball or in general of any convex body.
