Duality on Banach spaces and a Borel parametrized version of Zippin's theorem

Let SB be the standard coding for separable Banach spaces as subspaces of $C(\Delta)$. In these notes, we show that if $\mathbb{B} \subset \text{SB}$ is a Borel subset of spaces with separable dual, then the assignment $X \mapsto X^*$ can be realized by a Borel function $\mathbb{B}\to \text{SB}$. Moreover, this assignment can be done in such a way that the functional evaluation is still well defined (Theorem $1$). Also, we prove a Borel parametrized version of Zippin's theorem, i.e., we prove that there exists $Z \in \text{SB}$ and a Borel function that assigns for each $X \in \mathbb{B}$ an isomorphic copy of $X$ inside of $Z$ (Theorem $5$)

Operators whose dual has non-separable range

Let $X$ and $Y$ be separable Banach spaces and $T:X\to Y$ be a bounded linear operator. We characterize the non-separability of $T^*(Y^*)$ by means of fixing properties of the operator $T$.Comment: 20 pages, no figure

On pairs of definable orthogonal families

We introduce the notion of an M-family of infinite subsets of \nn which is implicitly contained in the work of A. R. D. Mathias. We study the structure of a pair of orthogonal hereditary families \aaa and \bbb, where \aaa is analytic and \bbb is $C$-measurable and an M-family.Comment: 21 pages, no figures.

A classification of separable Rosenthal compacta and its applications

The present work consists of three parts. In the first one we determine the prototypes of separable Rosenthal compacta and we provide a classification theorem. The second part concerns an extension of a theorem of S. Todorcevic. The last one is devoted to applications.Comment: 55 pages, no figure

Incomparable, non isomorphic and minimal Banach spaces

A Banach space contains either a minimal subspace or a continuum of incomparable subspaces. General structure results for analytic equivalence relations are applied in the context of Banach spaces to show that if $E_0$ does not reduce to isomorphism of the subspaces of a space, in particular, if the subspaces of the space admit a classification up to isomorphism by real numbers, then any subspace with an unconditional basis is isomorphic to its square and hyperplanes and has an isomorphically homogeneous subsequence
