We create a new family of Banach spaces, the James–Schreier spaces, by amalgamating two important classical Banach spaces: James’ quasi-reflexive Banach space on the one hand and Schreier’s Banach space giving a counterexample to the Banach–Saks property on the other. We then investigate the properties of these James–Schreier spaces, paying particular attention to how key properties of their ‘a...

In this paper we define a space σ(X) for approximate systems of compact spaces. The construction is due to H. Freudenthal for usual inverse sequences [4, p. 153–156]. We stablish the following properties of this space: (1) The space σ(X) is a paracompact space, (2) Moreover, if X is an approximate sequence of compact (metric) spaces, then σ(X) is a compact (metric) space (Lemma 2.4). We give th...

We show that the centraliser of the space of n-fold symmetric injective tensors, n ≥ 2, on a real Banach space is trivial. With a geometric condition on the set of extreme points of its dual, the space of integral polynomials we obtain the same result for complex Banach spaces. We give some applications of this results to centralisers of spaces of homogeneous polynomials and complex Banach spac...

1. Introduction and notation. In this paper the word " local " is used in at least three different meanings. Our aim is to study local Banach spaces of Fréchet or other locally convex spaces, and it turns out that it is convenient to use the local theory of Banach spaces for this purpose. Recall that given a locally convex space E and a continuous seminorm p on E the completion of the normed sp...

In this paper, we introduce generalized cyclic φ-contraction maps in metric spaces and give some results of best proximity points of such mappings in the setting of a uniformly convex Banach space. Moreover, we obtain convergence and existence results of proximity points of the mappings on reflexive Banach spaces

In this paper we introduce the concept of cone metric spaces with Banach algebras, replacing Banach spaces by Banach algebras as the underlying spaces of cone metric spaces. With this modification, we shall prove some fixed point theorems of generalized Lipschitz mappings with weaker conditions on generalized Lipschitz constants. An example shows that our main results concerning the fixed point...

In the theory of Banach spaces a rather small class of spaces has always played a central role (actually even before the formulation of the general theory). This class —the class of classical Banach spaces— contains the Lp (p) spaces (p a measure, 1 < p < °°) and the C(K) spaces (K compact Hausdorff) and some related spaces. These spaces are very important in various applications of Banach spac...

In this paper, we give characterizations of retro Banach frames in Banach spaces. The notion of almost exact retro Banach frame is defined and a characterization of retro Banach frame has been given. Also results exhibiting relationship between frames, almost exact retro Banach frames and Riesz bases has been proved. Finally, we give some perturbation results of retro Banach frames and an almos...
