In [1] J. Lindenstrauss and M. A. Perles studied the extreme points of the set of all linear operators T of norm ≤ 1 from a finite dimensional Banach space X into itself. In particular they studied the question “When do these extreme points form a semigroup?”.

AbstractWe consider the X-Greedy Algorithm and the Dual Greedy Algorithm in a finite-dimensional Banach space with a strictly monotone basis as the dictionary. We show that when the dictionary is an initial segment of the Haar basis in Lp[0, 1] (1 < p < ∞) then the algorithms terminate after finitely many iterations and that the number of iterations is bounded by a function of the length of the initial segment. We also prove a more general result for a class of strictly monotone bases.

AbstractLet (X, ‖ . ‖) be a Minkowski space (finite dimensional Banach space) with unit ball B. Various definitions of surface area are possible in X. Here we explore the one given by Benson [1], [2]. In particular, we show that this definition is convex and give details about the nature of the solution to the isoperimetric problem.

Magill, Jr. and Yamamuro have been responsible in recent years for a number of papers showing that the property that every automorphism is inner is held by many semigroups of functions and relations on topological spaces. Following [9], we say a semigroup has the Magill property if every automorphism is inner. we say a semigroup has the Magill property if every automorphism is inner. That the semigroup of Fréchet differentiable selfmaps, D of a finite dimensional Banach space E, had the Magill property was shown in [10], while a lengthy result in [6] extended this to the semigroup of k times Fréchet differentiable selfmaps, Dk, of a Fréchet Montel space (FM-space). In the latter paper it was noted that with a little additional effort the semigroup Ck, of k times continuously Fréchet differentiable selfmaps of FM-space, could be shown to possess the Magill property. It is the purpose of this paper to present a simpler proof of this result in the case where the underlying space is finite dimensional.

Abstract A test of special relativity is proposed by conceiving a rather natural generalization of the minkowskian spacetime. This is mathematically similar to generalizing the notion of finite dimensional Banach space of the related Hilbert space concept. A corresponding experiment might be feasible with appropriate quantum optical methods.

AbstractThis paper is inspired by a counter example of J. Kurzweil published in [5], whose intention was to demonstrate that a certain property of linear operators on finite-dimensional spaces need not be preserved in infinite dimension. We obtain a stronger result, which says that no infinite-dimensional Banach space can have the given property. Along the way, we will also derive an interesting proposition related to Dvoretzky's theorem.

AbstractIn this paper we consider collections of compact operators on a real or complex Banach space including linear operators on finite-dimensional vector spaces. We show that such a collection is simultaneously triangularizable if and only if it is arbitrarily close to a simultaneously triangularizable collection of compact operators. As an application of these results we obtain an invariant subspace theorem for certain bounded operators. We further prove that in finite dimensions near reducibility implies reducibility whenever the ground field is or .

Abstract Let ϕ be a modulus function, i.e., continuous strictly increasing function on [0, ∞), such that ϕ(0) = 0, ϕ(1) = 1, and ϕ(𝑥+𝑦) ≤ ϕ(𝑥)+ϕ(𝑦) for all 𝑥, 𝑦 in [0, ∞). It is the object of this paper to characterize, for any Banach space 𝑋, extreme points, exposed points, and smooth points of the unit ball of the metric linear space ℓ ϕ (𝑋), the space of all sequences (𝑥𝑛), 𝑥𝑛 ∈ 𝑋, 𝑛 = 1, 2, . . . , for which ∑ϕ(‖𝑥𝑛‖) < ∞. Further, extreme, exposed, and smooth points of the unit ball of the space of bounded linear operators on ℓ𝑝, 0 < 𝑝 < 1, are characterized.

Let F map [0, 1] into a Banach space B and let R(F) denote the set of all limits of Riemann sums of F. The set R(F) need not be convex in general (Nakamura and Amemiya (1966)) but is always convex when B is finite dimensional as first shown by Hartman (1947). A proof of Hartman's result, based on a description of R(F) when the range of F is finite, was given in Ellis (1959). In this note this description is refined, the extreme points of R(F) are determined and the following complete characterization of R(F) is obtained (where Nn = {1,2, …, n}).
