We give a general result on the behavior of spreading models in Banach spaces which coarse Lipschitz-embed into asymptotically uniformly convex spaces. We use this result to study the uniqueness of the uniform structure in p-sums of finite-dimensional spaces for 1 < p < ∞; in particular we give some new examples of spaces with unique uniform structure.
We survey some of the recent developments in the nonlinear theory of Banach spaces, with emphasis on problems of Lipschitz and uniform homeomorphism and uniform and coarse embeddings of metric spaces.
Various properties of Banach spaces, including the reeexivity and the Schur property of a space, are characterized in terms of properties of corresponding classes of locally Lipschitz functions on those spaces.
It is a well-known result of Kadec that every two separable infinite dimensional Banach spaces are homeomorphic. Also in large classes of nonseparable Banach spaces (perhaps all) the density character of a Banach space is its only topological invariant (see the book [2] for details). The situation changes considerably if we consider uniform homeomorphisms. Several results are known which prove ...
Let A(D) be the disc algebra of all continuous complex-valued functions on the unit disc D holomorphic in its interior. Functions from A(D) act on the set of all contraction operators (‖A‖ 1) on Hilbert spaces. It is proved that the following classes of functions from A(D) coincide: (1) the class of operator Lipschitz functions on the unit circle T; (2) the class of operator Lipschitz functions...
