Let X be a real Banach space. According to von Neumann's famous geometrical characterization X is a Hilbert space if and only if for all x, y ∈ XThus Hilbert space is distinguished among all real Banach spaces by a certain uniform behavior of the set of all two dimensional subspaces. A related characterization of real Lp spaces can be given in terms of uniform behavior of all two dimensional subspaces and a Boolean algebra of norm-1 projections [16]. For an arbitrary space X, one way of measuring the “uniformity” of the set of two dimensional subspaces is in terms of the real valued modulus of rotundity, i.e. for The space is said to be uniformly rotund if for each 0 we have .

Open Problems

In this paper we adopt the notion of orthogonality in Banach spaces introduced by the author in [6]. There, the author showed that in any two-dimensional subspace F of E, every nonzero element admits at most one orthogonal direction. The problem of existence of such orthogonal direction was not addressed before. Our main purpose in this paper is the investigation of this problem in the case where E is a real Banach space. As a result we obtain a characterisation of Hilbert spaces stating that, if in every two-dimensional subspace F of E every nonzero element admits an orthogonal direction, then E is isometric to a Hilbert space. We conclude by presenting some open problems.

In the structure theory of Banach spaces as developed in (1), an important role is played by subspaces which are the ranges of projections having norm properties akin to those of the classical Banach spaces. A linear projection e on a Banach space V is called an M-projection ifand an L-projection if, insteadA closed subspace J of V is called an M-Summand if it is the range of an M-projection and an M-Ideal if J0 is the range of an L-projection in V′. Every M-Summand is an M-Ideal but the reverse is false.

Derivative Of A Polynomial

In this work we generalize Markov's inequality for any derivative of a polynomial on a real Hilbert space and provide estimates for the second and third derivatives of a polynomial on a real Banach space. Our result on a real Hilbert space answers a question raised by L. A. Harris in his commentary on problem 74 in the Scottish Book [20]. We also provide generalizations of previously obtained inequalities of the Bernstein and Markov-type for polynomials with curved majorants on a real Hilbert space.

The aim of this paper is to prove the following result: if X is a 2-dimensional symmetric real Banach space, then its self-length is greater than or equal to 2π. Moreover, the minimum value 2π is uniquely attained (up to isometries) by euclidean space.

Abstract Let X be a real Banach space. The rectangular constant $\mu (X)$ and some generalisations of it, $\mu _p(X)$ for $p \geq 1$ , were introduced by Gastinel and Joly around half a century ago. In this paper we make precise some characterisations of inner product spaces by using $\mu _p(X)$ , correcting some statements appearing in the literature, and extend to $\mu _p(X)$ some characterisations of uniformly nonsquare spaces, known only for $\mu (X)$ . We also give a characterisation of two-dimensional spaces with hexagonal norms. Finally, we indicate some new upper estimates concerning $\mu (l_p)$ and $\mu _p(l_p)$ .

L-structure in a Banach space X was defined in (3) by L-projections, that is projections P satisfyingfor all x ∈ X. The significance of L-structure is shown by the following facts: (1) All L-projections on X commute and together form a complete Boolean algebra. (2) X can be isometrically represented as a vector-valued L1 on a measure space constructed from the Boolean algebra of its L-projections (2). (3) L1-spaces in the ordinary sense are characterized among Banach spaces by properties equivalent to having so many L-projections that the representation in (2) is everywhere one-dimensional.

Scalar Differential Equation

Let H be a fixed Hilbert space and B(H, H) be the Banach space of bounded linear operators from H to H with the uniform operator topology. Oscillation criteria are obtained for the operator differential equationwhere the coefficients A, C are linear operators from B(H, H) to B(H, H), for each t ≤ 0. A solution Y: R+ → B(H, H) is said to be oscillatory if there exists a sequence of points ti ∈ R+, so that ti → ∞ as i → ∞, and Y(ti) fails to have a bounded inverse. The main theorem states that a solution Y is oscillatory if an associated scalar differential equation is oscillatory.

This note is an addendum to my earlier paper [8]. The class of adjoint abelian operators discussed there was small because the compatibility relation between the operator and the duality map was too restrictive. (In effect, the relation is appropriate for Hilbert space, but ill-suited for other Banach spaces where the unit ball is not round.) However, the techniques introduced in [8] permit us to readily obtain a spectral theory (of the Dunford type) for a wider class of operators on Banach spaces, as we shall show.A duality system for the operator T is an ordered sextuple(i) T is a bounded linear operator mapping the Banach space B into B,(ii) ϕ is a duality map from B to B*. Thus, for x ∊ B, ϕ(x) = x* ∊ B*, where ‖x‖ = ‖x*‖ and x*(x) = ‖x‖2. The existence of ϕ follows easily from the Hahn-Banach Theorem.

Group Of Isometries

AbstractGiven a separable Banach space E, we construct an extremely non-complex Banach space (i.e. a space satisfying that ‖ Id + T2 ‖ = 1 + ‖ T2 ‖ for every bounded linear operator T on it) whose dual contains E* as an L-summand. We also study surjective isometries on extremely non-complex Banach spaces and construct an example of a real Banach space whose group of surjective isometries reduces to ±Id, but the group of surjective isometries of its dual contains the group of isometries of a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space as a subgroup.

This has the advantage of greater simplicity in proof and greater generality in applications.” Jacob T. Schwartz
