We prove that for any separable Banach space X, there exists a compact metric space which is homeomorphic to the Cantor space and whose Lipschitz-free space contains a complemented subspace isomorphic to X. As a consequence we give an example of a compact metric space which is homeomorphic to the Cantor space and whose Lipschitz-free space fails the approximation property and we prove that ther...

Let 1 < p ̸= 2 < ∞, ε > 0 and let T : lp(l2) into → Lp[0, 1] be an isomorphism Then there is a subspace Y ⊂ lp(l2), (1 + ε)-isomorphic to lp(l2), such that: T|Y is an (1+ ε)-isomorphism and T (Y ) is Kp-complemented in Lp [0, 1], with Kp depending only on p. Moreover, Kp ≤ (1 + ε)γp if p > 2 and Kp ≤ (1 + ε)γp/(p−1) if 1 < p < 2, where γr is the Lr norm of a standard Gaussian variable.

We first characterize $tau$-complemented modules with relative (pre)-covers. We also introduce an extending module relative to $tau$-pure submodules on a hereditary torsion theory $tau$ and give its relationship with $tau$-complemented modules.

We investigate the distribution of eigenvalues of completely nuclear maps on an operator space. We prove that eigenvalues of completely nuclear maps are square-summable in general and summable if the underlying operator space is Hilbertian and homogeneous. Conversely, if eigenvalues are summable for all completely nuclear maps, then every finite dimensional subspace of the underlying operator s...

We show that if Y is a separable subspace of a Banach space X such that both X and the quotient X/Y have Cp-smooth Lipschitz bump functions, and U is a bounded open subset of X, then, for every uniformly continuous function f : Y ∩U → R and every ε > 0, there exists a Cp-smooth Lipschitz function F : X → R such that |F (y)− f(y)| ≤ ε for every y ∈ Y ∩U . If we are given a separable subspace Y o...
