SOME RESULTS RELATED TO THE SEPARABLE QUOTIENT PROBLEM

In the paper we establish some conditions under which a given sequence of polynomials on a Banach space X supports entire functions of unbounded type, and construct some counter examples. We show that if X is an infinite dimensional Banach space, then the set of entire functions of unbounded type can be represented as a union of infinite dimensional linear subspaces (without the origin). Moreover, we show that for some cases, the set of entire functions of unbounded type generated by a given sequence of polynomials contains an infinite dimensional algebra (without the origin). Some applications for symmetric analytic functions on Banach spaces are obtained.

We study classes of mappings between finite and infinite dimensional Banach spaces that are monotone and mappings which are differences of monotone mappings (DM). We prove a Radó–Reichelderfer estimate for monotone mappings in finite dimensional spaces that remains valid for DM mappings. This provides an alternative proof of the Fréchet differentiability a.e. of DM mappings. We establish a Morrey-type estimate for the distributional derivative of monotone mappings. We prove that a locally DM mapping between finite dimensional spaces is also globally DM. We introduce and study a new class of the so-called UDM mappings between Banach spaces, which generalizes the concept of curves of finite variation.

Over the past years, a significant interest has developed in the study of holomorphic functions defined on a domain in an infinite-dimensional Banach space and of their constituents (via Taylor expansions), the homogeneous polynomials. Many of the questions that have been studied have arisen from considerations of infinitedimensional topology and from standard function algebra questions [CCG]. Recently, there has been an interest in connecting the well-developed theory of the geometry of Banach spaces with the function theory questions that have been studied classically, and some progress has been made in this direction [ACG; D; F; CCG; CGJ]. In addition, connections between properties of polynomials and geometry of the unit ball has been of interest (see [GJL] for a survey of this topic). The present work is an attempt to study some of the properties of bounded analytic functions on the unit ball of an infinite-dimensional Banach space. In particular, we are interested in understanding something of boundary behavior; we combine techniques from the several fields to investigate it, especially with regard to the interplay with convexity and smoothness. Many of the results here apply to the classical “nice” reflexive spaces, such as lp and Lp (1 < p <∞). It is almost certain that there is much more to be learned even about the Hilbert space case. We consider the boundary behavior of H∞ functions on B, the open unit ball of an infinite-dimensional complex Banach space that has the geometric properties of uniform convexity, uniform smoothness, or both. By uniform smoothness, we mean uniform (real) Frechet differentiability of the norm, with the space considered as a real Banach space. Uniform convexity will mean that the dual is uniformly smooth; since spaces with either property are reflexive, this definition is complete. To be specific however, we state the following (after [LT]).

This paper shows if $X$ is an infinite dimensional Banach space, $X$ contains a linearly independent arc. Also based on the continuum hypothesis, that if $X$ is an infinite dimensional Banach space and card $X = c$, then $X$ contains a dense arcwise connected Hamel basis.

Two homogeneous measures of noncompactness β and γ on an infinite dimensional Banach space X are called “equivalent” if there exist positive constants b and c such that bβ(S) ≤ γ(S) ≤ cβ(S) for all bounded sets \({S\subset X}\). If such constants do not exist, the measures of noncompactness are “inequivalent.” We ask a foundational question which apparently has not previously been considered: For what infinite dimensional Banach spaces do there exist inequivalent measures of noncompactness on X? We provide here the first examples of inequivalent measures of noncompactness. We prove that such inequivalent measures exist if X is a Hilbert space; or if (Ω, Σ, μ) is a general measure space, 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞, and X = Lp(Ω, Σ, μ); or if K is a compact Hausdorff space and X = C(K); or if K is a compact metric space, 0 < λ ≤ 1, and X = C0,λ(K), the Banach space of Holder continuous functions with Holder exponent λ. We also prove the existence of such inequivalent measures of noncompactness if Ω is an open subset of \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) and X is the Sobolev space Wm,p(Ω). Our motivation comes from questions about existence of eigenvectors of homogeneous, continuous, order-preserving cone maps f : C→C and from the closely related issue of giving the proper definition of the “cone essential spectral radius” of such maps. These questions are considered in the companion paper [28]; see, also, [27].

Unconditional Basis and Gordon–Lewis Constants for Spaces of Polynomials

Retracting a ball onto a sphere in some Banach spaces

Internal points were introduced in the literature of topological vector spaces to characterize the finest locally convex vector topology. Later on, they have been generalized to the context of real vector spaces by means of the inner points. Inner points can be seen as the most opposite concept to the extreme points. In this manuscript we solve the “faceless problem”, that is, the informally posed open problem of characterizing those convex sets free of proper faces. Indeed, we prove that a non-singleton convex subset of a real vector space is free of proper faces if and only if every point of the convex set is an inner point. As a consequence, we prove the following dichotomy theorem: a point of a convex set of a real vector space is either a extreme point or an inner point of some face. We also characterize the non-singleton closed convex subsets of a topological vector space free of proper faces, which turn out to be the linear manifolds. An application of this allows us to show that the only possible minimal faces of a linearly bounded closed convex subset of a topological vector space are the extreme points. As an application of the technique we develop to prove our results, we easily construct dense proper faces of convex sets and non-dense proper faces whose closure is not a face. This fact allows us to equivalently renorm any infinite dimensional Banach space so that its unit ball contains a non-closed face. Even more, we prove that every infinite dimensional Banach space containing an isomorphic copy of $$c_0$$ or $$\ell _p$$ , $$1<p<\infty $$ , can be equivalently renormed so that its unit ball contains a face whose closure is not a face.

We provide conditions which ensure that the solution set of the Cauchy problem for a singularly perturbed system of differential inclusions in infinite dimensional Banach spaces is upper semicontinuous with respect to the parameter $\varepsilon\ge0$ of the perturbation. The main tools are represented by suitable introduced measures of noncompactness and the topological degree theory in locally convex spaces.

Gateaux Differentiation of Functions on a Certain Class of Banach Spaces

We present a non-weak supercyclicity criterion for vectors in infinite dimensional Banach spaces. Also, we give sufficient conditions under which a class of weighted composition operators on a Banach space of analytic functions is not weakly supercyclic. In particular, we show that the semigroup of linear isometries on the spaces $S^p$ ($p>1$), is not weakly supercyclic. Moreover, we observe that every composition operator on some Banach space of analytic functions such as the disc algebra or the analytic Lipschitz space is not weakly supercyclic.

In this paper, we establish a generalization of the Galewski-Rădulescu nonsmooth global implicit function theorem to locally Lipschitz functions defined from infinite dimensional Banach spaces into Euclidean spaces. Moreover, we derive, under suitable conditions, a series of results on the existence, uniqueness, and possible continuity of global implicit functions that parametrize the set of zeros of locally Lipschitz functions. Our methods rely on a nonsmooth critical point theory based on a generalization of the Ekeland variational principle.
