A short note on hereditary Mazur intersection property
In this note, we prove that hereditary Mazur intersection property (MIP) does not imply Fréchet smoothness using an example by Borwein and Fabian (1993).

(Asymptotic) uniform smoothness, ball separation and residuality results
In this article, we discuss a ball separation characterisation of asymptotically uniformly smooth (AUS) norms. We use this characterisation to prove the residuality of the set of equivalent AUS norms. We discuss similar residuality results for uniformly smooth norms and norms with uniform Mazur intersection property (UMIP).

The Generalised (Uniform) Mazur Intersection Property
Given a family $\mathcal{C}$ of closed bounded convex sets in a Banach space $X$, we say that $X$ has the $\mathcal{C}$-MIP if every $C \in \mathcal{C}$ is the intersection of the closed balls containing it. In this paper, we introduce a stronger version of the $\mathcal{C}$-MIP and show that it is a more satisfactory generalisation of the MIP inasmuch as one can obtain complete analogues of various characterisations of the MIP. We also introduce uniform versions of the (strong) $\mathcal{C}$-MIP and characterise them analogously. Even in this case, the strong $\mathcal{C}$-UMIP appears to have richer characterisations than the $\mathcal{C}$-UMIP.

A note on commutative and noncommutative Gurariy spaces
In this short note, we answer two questions about Gurariy spaces asked in the literature in the affirmative. We also prove the analogue of one of the results for the noncommutative Guariy space.

On uniform Mazur intersection property
In this paper, we show that a Banach space $X$ has the Uniform Mazur Intersection Property (UMIP) if and only if every $f \in S(X^*)$ is uniformly w*-semidenting point of $B(X^*)$. We also prove analogous results for uniform w*-MIP.

A memory based random walk model to understand diffusion in crowded heterogeneous environment
We study memory based random walk models to understand diffusive motion in crowded heterogeneous environment. The models considered are non-Markovian as the current move of the random walk models is determined by randomly selecting a move from history. At each step, particle can take right, left or stay moves which is correlated with the randomly selected past step. There is a perfect stay-stay correlation which ensures that the particle does not move if the randomly selected past step is a stay move. The probability of traversing the same direction as the chosen history or reversing it depends on the current time and the time or position of the history selected. The time or position dependent biasing in moves implicitly corresponds to the heterogeneity of the environment and dictates the long-time behavior of the dynamics that can be diffusive, sub or super diffusive. A combination of analytical solution and Monte Carlo simulation of different random walk models gives rich insight on the effects of correlations on the dynamics of a system in heterogeneous environment.

On nicely smooth Banach spaces
In this work, we obtain some necessary and some sufficient conditions for a space to be nicely smooth, and show that they are equivalent for separable or Asplund spaces. We obtain a sufficient condition for the Ball Generated Property (BGP), and conclude that Property $(II)$ implies the BGP, which, in turn, implies the space is nicely smooth. We show that the class of nicely smooth spaces is stable under $c_o$ and $\ell_p$ sums and also under finite $\ell_1$ sums; that being nicely smooth is not a three space property; and that the Bochner $L_p$ spaces are nicely smooth if and only if $X$ is both nicely smooth and Asplund. A striking result obtained is that every equivalent renorming of a space is nicely smooth if and only if it is reflexive.

On A New Asymptotic Norming Property
In this work, we introduce a new Asymptotic Norming Property (ANP) which lies between the strongest and weakest of the existing ones, and obtain isometric characterisations of it. The corresponding w*-ANP turns out to be equivalent on the one hand, to Property $(V)$ introduced by Sullivan, and to a ball separation property on the other. We also study stability properties of this new ANP and its w*-version.

The Mazur Intersection Property and Farthest Points
K.\ S.\ Lau had shown that a reflexive Banach space has the Mazur Intersection Property (MIP) if and only if every closed bounded convex set is the closed convex hull of its farthest points. In this work, we show that in general this latter property is equivalent to a property stronger than the MIP. As corollaries, we recapture the result of Lau and characterize the w*-MIP in dual of RNP spaces.

Extreme contractions in ${\cal L}(\ell^p_2, \ell^q_2)$ and the mazur intersection property in $\ell^p_2 \otimes_{\p} \ell^q_2$
In this paper, we show that the projective tensor product of a two-dimen\-sional $\ell^p$ space with a two-dimensional $\ell^q$ space never has the Mazur Intersection Property for a large range of values of $p$ and $q$. For this purpose, we characterise the extreme contractions from $\ell^p_2$ to $\ell^q_2$ and obtain their closure.
