Siegel domains over Finsler symmetric cones

Let Ω be a proper open cone in a real Banach space V. We show that the tube domain V ⊕ i ⁢ Ω {V\oplus i\Omega} over Ω is biholomorphic to a bounded symmetric domain if and only if Ω is a normal linearly homogeneous Finsler symmetric cone, which is equivalent to the condition that V is a unital JB-algebra in an equivalent norm and Ω is the interior of { v 2 : v ∈ V } {\{v^{2}:v\in V\}} .

V-Proximal Trustworthy Banach Spaces

In a recent work (2016), the first author proved the fuzzy sum rule for the V-proximal subdifferential under some natural assumptions on an equivalent norm of the Banach spaces. In the present paper, we are going to prove that the class of Banach spaces satisfying the fuzzy sum rule is very large and contains all Lp spaces 1<p<∞ as well as the sequence spaces lp1<p<∞, the Sobolev spaces Wp,n1<p<∞, and the Schatten trace ideals Cp1<p<∞.

Volterra funktional equations in the stability problem for the existence of global solutions of distributed controlled systems

Earlier the author proposed a rather general form of describing controlled initial–boundary value problems (CIBVPs) by means of Volterra functional equations (VFE) z(t)=f(t,A[z](t),v(t) ), t≡{t^1,⋯,t^n }∈Π⊂R^n, z∈L_p^m≡(L_p (Π) )^m, where f(.,.,.):Π×R^l×R^s→R^m; v(.)∈D⊂L_k^s – control function; A:L_p^m (Π)→L_q^l (Π)- linear operator; the operator A is a Volterra operator for some system T of subsets of the set Π in the following sense: for any H∈T, the restriction A├ [z]┤|_H does not depend on the values of ├ z┤|_(Π\H); (this definition of the Volterra operator is a direct multidimensional generalization of the well-known Tikhonov definition of a functional Volterra type operator). Various CIBVP (for nonlinear hyperbolic and parabolic equations, integro-differential equations, equations with delay, etc.) are reduced by the method of conversion the main part to such functional equations. The transition to equivalent VFE-description of CIBVP is adequate to many problems of distributed optimization. In particular, the author proposed (using such description) a scheme for obtaining sufficient stability conditions (under perturbations of control) of the existence of global solutions for CIBVP. The scheme uses continuation local solutions of functional equation (that is, solutions on the sets H∈T). This continuation is realized with the help of the chain {H_1⊂H_2⊂⋯⊂H_(k-1)⊂H_k≡Π}, where H_i∈T, i=¯(1,k.) A special local existence theorem is applied. This theorem is based on the principle of contraction mappings. In the case p=q=k=∞ under natural assumptions, the possibility of applying this principle is provided by the following: the right-hand side operator F_v [z(.) ](t)≡f(t,A[z](t),v(t)) satisfies the Lipschitz condition in the operator form with the quasi-nilpotent «Lipschitz operator». This allows (using well-known results of functional analysis) to introduce in the space L_∞^m (H) such an equivalent norm in which the operator of the right-hand side will be contractive. In the general case 1≤p,q,k ≤∞, (this case covers a much wider class of CIBVP), the operator F_v; as a rule, does not satisfy such Lipschitz condition. From the results obtained by the author earlier, it follows that in this case there also exists an equivalent norm of the space L_p^m (H), for which the operator F_v is a contraction operator. The corresponding basic theorem (equivalent norm theorem) is based on the notion of equipotential quasi-nilpotency of a family of linear operators, acting in a Banach space. This article shows how this theorem can be applied to obtain sufficient stability conditions (under perturbations of control) of the existence of global solutions of VFE.

c0 can be renormed to have the fixed point property for affine nonexpansive mappings

P.K. Lin gave the first example of a non-reflexive Banach space (X,||?||) with the fixed point property (FPP) for nonexpansive mappings and showed this fact for (l1,||?||1) with the equivalent norm ||?|| given by ||x|| = sup k?N 8k/1+8k ?1,n=k |xn|, for all x = (xn)n?N ? l1. We wonder (c0, ||?||1) analogue of P.K. Lin?s work and we give positive answer if functions are affine nonexpansive. In our work, for x = (?k)k ? c0, we define |||x||| := lim p?? sup ?k?N ?k (?1,j=k |?j|p/2j)1/p where ?k ?k 3, k is strictly increasing with ?k > 2, ?k ? N, then we prove that (c0,|||?|||) has the fixed point property for affine |||?|||-nonexpansive self-mappings. Next, we generalize this result and show that if ?(?) is an equivalent norm to the usual norm on c0 such that lim sup n ?(1/n ?n,m=1 xm + x) = lim sup n ?(1/n ?n,m=1 xm) + ?(x) for every weakly null sequence (xn)n and for all x ? c0, then for every ? > 0, c0 with the norm ||?||? = ?(?)+?|||?||| has the FPP for affine ||?||?-nonexpansive self-mappings.

Generalized homogeneous Besov spaces associated with the Riemann–Liouville operator

We define and study generalized homogeneous Besov spaces connected with the Riemann–Liouville operator. We establish some results of density of subspaces, completeness and continuous embedding. Also, a discrete equivalent norm is examined.

A Reverse Theorem on the·-w*Continuity of the Dual Map

Given a Banach spaceX,x∈𝖲X, and𝖩Xx=x*∈𝖲X*:x*x=1, we define the set𝖩X*xof allx*∈𝖲X*for which there exist two sequencesxnn∈N⊆𝖲X∖{x}andxn*n∈N⊆𝖲X*such thatxnn∈Nconverges tox,xn*n∈Nhas a subnetw*-convergent tox*, andxn*xn=1for alln∈N. We prove that ifXis separable and reflexive andX*enjoys the Radon-Riesz property, then𝖩X*xis contained in the boundary of𝖩Xxrelative to𝖲X*. We also show that ifXis infinite dimensional and separable, then there exists an equivalent norm onXsuch that the interior of𝖩Xxrelative to𝖲X*is contained in𝖩X*x.

Quasi-Jordan Banach Algebras

We initiate a study of quasi-Jordan normed algebras. It is demonstrated that any quasi-Jordan Banach algebra with a norm1unit can be given an equivalent norm making the algebra isometrically isomorphic to a closed right ideal of a unital split quasi-Jordan Banach algebra; the set of invertible elements may not be open; the spectrum of any element is nonempty, but it may be neither bounded nor closed and hence not compact. Some characterizations of the unbounded spectrum of an element in a split quasi-Jordan Banach algebra with certain examples are given in the end.

Smoothness, Convexity, Porosity, and Separable Determination

This chapter shows how spaces with separable dual admit a Fréchet smooth norm. It first considers a criterion of the differentiability of continuous convex functions on Banach spaces before discussing Fréchet smooth and nonsmooth renormings and Fréchet differentiability of convex functions. It then describes the connection between porous sets and Fréchet differentiability, along with the set of points of Fréchet differentiability of maps between Banach spaces. It also examines the concept of separable determination, the relevance of the σ‎-porous sets for differentiability and proves the existence of a Fréchet smooth equivalent norm on a Banach space with separable dual. The chapter concludes by explaining how one can show that many differentiability type results hold in nonseparable spaces provided they hold in separable ones.
