Abstract The aim of this note is to present two results that make the task of finding equivalent polyhedral norms on certain Banach spaces, having either a Schauder basis or an uncountable unconditional basis, easier and more transparent. The hypotheses of both results are based on decomposing the unit sphere of a Banach space into countably many pieces, such that each one satisfies certain properties. Some examples of spaces having equivalent polyhedral norms are given.

1. In this paper, we investigate the ranges of projections on certain Banach spaces of functions defined on a diadic tree. The notion of a “tree-like” Banach space is due to James 4], who used it to construct the separable space JT which has nonseparable dual and yet does not contain l1. This idea has proved useful. In [3], Hagler constructed a hereditarily c0 tree space, HT, and Schechtman [6] constructed, for each 1 ≦ p ≦ ∞, a reflexive Banach space, STp with a 1-unconditional basis which does not contain lp yet is uniformly isomorphic to for each n.In [1] we showed that if U is a bounded linear operator on JT, then there exists a subspace W ⊂ JT, isomorphic to JT such that either U or (1 — U) acts as an isomorphism on W and UW or (1 — U)W is complemented in JT. In this paper, we establish this result for the Hagler and Schechtman tree spaces.

In this paper we provide new geometric invariants of surjective isometries between unit spheres of Banach spaces. Let X,Y be Banach spaces and let T:SX→SY be a surjective isometry. The most relevant geometric invariants under surjective isometries such as T are known to be the starlike sets, the maximal faces of the unit ball, and the antipodal points (in the finite-dimensional case). Here, new geometric invariants are found, such as almost flat sets, flat sets, starlike compatible sets, and starlike generated sets. Also, in this work, it is proved that if F is a maximal face of the unit ball containing inner points, then T(−F)=−T(F). We also show that if [x,y] is a non-trivial segment contained in the unit sphere such that T([x,y]) is convex, then T is affine on [x,y]. As a consequence, T is affine on every segment that is a maximal face. On the other hand, we introduce a new geometric property called property P, which states that every face of the unit ball is the intersection of all maximal faces containing it. This property has turned out to be, in a implicit way, a very useful tool to show that many Banach spaces enjoy the Mazur-Ulam property. Following this line, in this manuscript it is proved that every reflexive or separable Banach space with dimension greater than or equal to 2 can be equivalently renormed to fail property P.

Roughly speaking, we show that a Banach space X has the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings whenever X has the WORTH property and the unit sphere of X does not contain a triangle with sides of length larger than 2.

Let E be a Banach space and let B(R)⊂E denote the open ball with centre at 0 and radius R. The following problem is studied: given 0<r<R, ∊>0 and a function f holomorphic on B(R), does there always exist an entire function g on E such that |f-g|<∊ on B(r)? L. Lempert has proved that the answer is positive for Banach spaces having an unconditional basis with unconditional constant 1. In this paper a somewhat shorter proof of Lemperts result is given. In general it is not possible to approximate f by polynomials since f does not need to be bounded on B(r).

Abstract In this paper, we ⊥ B J C ϵ -orthogonality and explore ⊥ B J C ϵ -symmetricity such as a ⊥ B J C ϵ -left-symmetric ( ⊥ B J C ϵ -right-symmetric) of a vector x in a real Banach space (𝕏, ‖·‖𝕩) and study the relation between a ⊥ B J C ϵ -right-symmetric ( ⊥ B J C ϵ -left-symmetric) in ℐ(x). New results and proofs are include the notion of norm attainment set of a continuous linear functionals on a reflexive and strictly convex Banach space and using these results to characterize a smoothness of a vector in a unit sphere.

AbstractA Δ-point x of a Banach space is a norm-one element that is arbitrarily close to convex combinations of elements in the unit ball that are almost at distance 2 from x. If, in addition, every point in the unit ball is arbitrarily close to such convex combinations, x is a Daugavet point. A Banach space X has the Daugavet property if and only if every norm-one element is a Daugavet point. We show that Δ- and Daugavet points are the same in L1-spaces, in L1-preduals, as well as in a big class of Müntz spaces. We also provide an example of a Banach space where all points on the unit sphere are Δ-points, but none of them are Daugavet points. We also study the property that the unit ball is the closed convex hull of its Δ-points. This gives rise to a new diameter-two property that we call the convex diametral diameter-two property. We show that all C(K) spaces, K infinite compact Hausdorff, as well as all Müntz spaces have this property. Moreover, we show that this property is stable under absolute sums.

It is known that every Banach space which possesses a Schauder basis is essentially a space of sequences (6, Section 11.4). The primary objectives of this paper are: (1) to illustrate the close connection between sectionally bounded BK spaces and Banach spaces which have a Schauder basis, and (2) to consider some results in these theories in such a way as to render them easy and natural. In order to reach the largest number of readers we shall use (6) as the sole basis of our discussion. References to other authors are made in order to direct the reader to the original source of a theorem or to a related discussion.

It is known, (see [7], theorem 4 or [8], corollary II, 10.1), that a positive generated, ordered Banach space X is order-isomorphic to l1 iff X has a Schauder basis which generates its positive cone X+ and X+ has a bounded base.

The work of various authors (e.g. Frink [3] and Markushevitch [7]) suggests the possibility of studying complete biorthogonal sequences in Banach spaces as a generalization of orthogonal families of continuous functions. But except for the case where the complete biorthogonal sequence is a Schauder basis such studies have not led to a very rich theory. The main reason for this is that an arbitrary complete biorthogonal sequence is not likely to have many helpful properties. For instance, in every separable Banach space X one can find a complete biorthogonal sequence {ei, Ei} which is not one-summable.

A Banach space X has the average distance property (ADP) if there exists a unique real number r such that for each positive integer n and all x1,…,xn in the unit sphere of X there is some x in the unit sphere of X such that .It is known that l2 and l∞ have the ADP, whereas lp fails to have the ADP if 1 ≤ p < 2. We show that lp also fails to have the ADP for 3 ≤ p ≤ ∞. Our method seems to be able to decide also the case 2 < p < 3, but the computational difficulties increase as p comes closer to 2.
