Examples of k-iterated spreading models

It is shown that for every $k\in\mathbb{N}$ and every spreading sequence $\{e_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ that generates a uniformly convex Banach space $E$, there exists a uniformly convex Banach space $X_{k+1}$ admitting $\{e_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ as a $k+1$-iterated spreading model, but not as a $k$-iterated one.Comment: 16 pages, no figure

Banach spaces and Ramsey Theory: some open problems

We discuss some open problems in the Geometry of Banach spaces having Ramsey-theoretic flavor. The problems are exposed together with well known results related to them.Comment: 17 pages, no figures; RACSAM, to appea
