Geometry of Banach spaces and biorthogonal systems
A separable Banach space X contains isomorphically if and only if X
has a bounded wc_0^*-stable biorthogonal system. The dual of a separable Banach
space X fails the Schur property if and only if X has a bounded
wc_0^*-biorthogonal system
On the size of approximately convex sets in normed spaces
Let X be a normed space. A subset A of X is approximately convex if
for all and where is
the distance of to . Let \Co(A) be the convex hull and \diam(A) the
diameter of . We prove that every -dimensional normed space contains
approximately convex sets with \mathcal{H}(A,\Co(A))\ge \log_2n-1 and
\diam(A) \le C\sqrt n(\ln n)^2, where denotes the Hausdorff
distance. These estimates are reasonably sharp. For every , we construct
worst possible approximately convex sets in such that
\mathcal{H}(A,\Co(A))=\diam(A)=D. Several results pertaining to the
Hyers-Ulam stability theorem are also proved.Comment: 32 pages. See also http://www.math.sc.edu/~howard
