Trimming the Johnson bonsai

We show that if $p>1$ every subspace of $\ell_p(\Gamma)$ is an $\ell_p$-sum of separable subspaces of $\ell_p$, and we provide examples of subspaces of $\ell_p(\Gamma)$ for $0<p\leq 1$ that are not even isomorphic to any $\ell_p$-sum of separable spaces, notably the kernel of any quotient map $\ell_p(\Gamma)\to L_1(2^{\Gamma})$ with $\Gamma$ uncountable. We involve the separable complementation property (SCP) and the separable extension property (SEP), showing that if $X$ is a Banach space of density character $\aleph_1$ with the SCP then the kernel of any quotient map $\ell_p(\Gamma)\to X$ is a complemented subspace of a space with the SCP and, consequently, has the SEP.

Banach spaces of almost universal complemented disposition

We introduce and study the notion of space of almost universal complemented disposition (a.u.c.d.) as a generalization of Kadec space. We show that every Banach space with separable dual is isometrically contained as a $1$-complemented subspace of a separable a.u.c.d. space and that all a.u.c.d. spaces with $1$-FDD are isometric and contain isometric $1$-complemented copies of every separable Banach space with $1$-FDD. We then study spaces of universal complemented disposition (u.c.d.) and provide different constructions for such spaces. We also consider spaces of u.c.d. with respect to separable spaces.

On Disjointly singular centralizers

We study ``disjoint" versions of the notions of trivial, locally trivial, strictly singular and super-strictly singular quasi-linear maps in the context of Köthe function spaces. Among other results, we show: i) (locally) trivial and (locally) disjointly trivial notions coincide on reflexive spaces; ii) On non-atomic superreflexive Köthe spaces, no centralizer is singular, although most are disjointly singular. iii) No super singular quasi-linear maps exist between superreflexive spaces although Kalton-Peck centralizers are super disjointly singular; iv) Disjoint singularity does not imply super disjoint singularity.

On the bounded approximation property on subspaces of $\ell_p$ when $0<p<1$ and related issues

This paper studies the bounded approximation property (BAP) in quasi Banach spaces. In the first part of the paper we show that the kernel of any surjective operator $\ell_p\to X$ has the BAP when $X$ has it and $0<p\leq 1$, which is an analogue of the corresponding result of Lusky for Banach spaces. We then obtain and study nonlocally convex versions of the Kadec-Pełczyński-Wojtaszczyk complementably universal spaces for Banach spaces with the BAP.

1-complemented subspaces of Banach spaces of universal disposition

We first unify all notions of partial injectivity appearing in the literature ---(universal) separable injectivity, (universal) $\aleph$-injectivity --- in the notion of $(α, β)$-injectivity ($(α, β)_λ$-injectivity if the parameter $λ$ has to be specified). Then, extend the notion of space of universal disposition to space of universal $(α, β)$-disposition. Finally, we characterize the $1$-complemented subspaces of spaces of universal $(α, β)$-disposition as precisely the spaces $(α, β)_1$-injective.

On separably injective Banach spaces and Corrigendum to "On separably injective Banach spaces" [Adv. Math. 234 (2013) 192--216]

In this paper we deal with two weaker forms of injectivity which turn out to have a rich structure behind: separable injectivity and universal separable injectivity. We show several structural and stability properties of these classes of Banach spaces. We provide natural examples of (universally) separably injective spaces, including $\mathcal L_\infty$ ultraproducts built over countably incomplete ultrafilters, in spite of the fact that these ultraproducts are never injective. We obtain two fundamental characterizations of universally separably injective spaces: a) A Banach space $E$ is universally separably injective if and only if every separable subspace is contained in a copy of $\ell_\infty$ inside $E$. b) A Banach space $E$ is universally separably injective if and only if for every separable space $S$ one has $\Ext(\ell_\infty/S, E)=0$. The final Section of the paper focuses on special properties of 1-separably injective spaces. Lindenstrauss\ obtained in the middle sixties a result that can be understood as a proof that, under the continuum hypothesis, 1-separably injective spaces are 1-universally separably injective; he left open the question in {\sf ZFC}. We construct a consistent example of a Banach space of type $C(K)$ which is 1-separably injective but not 1-universally separably injective. We show that, under the continuum hypothesis, "to be universally separably injective" is not a $3$-space property, as we wrongly claimed in the paper mentioned in the title.

On the classification of positions and of complex structures in Banach spaces

A topological setting is defined to study the complexities of the relation of equivalence of embeddings (or "position") of a Banach space into another and of the relation of isomorphism of complex structures on a real Banach space. The following results are obtained: a) if $X$ is not uniformly finitely extensible, then there exists a space $Y$ for which the relation of position of $Y$ inside $X$ reduces the relation $E_0$ and therefore is not smooth; b) the relation of position of $\ell_p$ inside $\ell_p$, or inside $L_p$, $p \neq 2$, reduces the relation $E_1$ and therefore is not reducible to an orbit relation induced by the action of a Polish group; c) the relation of position of a space inside another can attain the maximum complexity $E_{\rm max}$; d) there exists a subspace of $L_p, 1 \leq p <2$, on which isomorphism between complex structures reduces $E_1$ and therefore is not reducible to an orbit relation induced by the action of a Polish group.

Complex structures on twisted Hilbert spaces

We investigate complex structures on twisted Hilbert spaces, with special attention paid to the Kalton-Peck $Z_2$ space and to the hyperplane problem. We consider (nontrivial) twisted Hilbert spaces generated by centralizers obtained from an interpolation scale of Köthe function spaces. We show there are always complex structures on the Hilbert space that cannot be extended to the twisted Hilbert space. If, however, the scale is formed by rearrangement invariant Köthe function spaces then there are complex structures on it that can be extended to a complex structure of the twisted Hilbert space. Regarding the hyperplane problem we show that no complex structure on $\ell_2$ can be extended to a complex structure on an hyperplane of $Z_2$ containing it.

$\aleph$-injective Banach spaces and $\aleph$-projective compacta

A Banach space $E$ is said to be injective if for every Banach space $X$ and every subspace $Y$ of $X$ every operator $t:Y\to E$ has an extension $T:X\to E$. We say that $E$ is $\aleph$-injective (respectively, universally $\aleph$-injective) if the preceding condition holds for Banach spaces $X$ (respectively $Y$) with density less than a given uncountable cardinal $\aleph$. We perform a study of $\aleph$-injective and universally $\aleph$-injective Banach spaces which extends the basic case where $\aleph=\aleph_1$ is the first uncountable cardinal. When dealing with the corresponding "isometric" properties we arrive to our main examples: ultraproducts and spaces of type $C(K)$. We prove that ultraproducts built on countably incomplete $\aleph$-good ultrafilters are $(1,\aleph)$-injective as long as they are Lindenstrauss spaces. We characterize $(1,\aleph)$-injective $C(K)$ spaces as those in which the compact $K$ is an $F_\aleph$-space (disjoint open subsets which are the union of less than $\aleph$ many closed sets have disjoint closures) and we uncover some projectiveness properties of $F_\aleph$-spaces.

On the Bounded Approximation Property in Banach spaces

We prove that the kernel of a quotient operator from an $\mathcal L_1$-space onto a Banach space $X$ with the Bounded Approximation Property (BAP) has the BAP. This completes earlier results of Lusky --case $\ell_1$-- and Figiel, Johnson and Pełczyński --case $X^*$ separable. Given a Banach space $X$, we show that if the kernel of a quotient map from some $\mathcal L_1$-space onto $X$ has the BAP then every kernel of every quotient map from any $\mathcal L_1$-space onto $X$ has the BAP. The dual result for $\mathcal L_\infty$-spaces also hold: if for some $\mathcal L_\infty$-space $E$ some quotient $E/X$ has the BAP then for every $\mathcal L_\infty$-space $E$ every quotient $E/X$ has the BAP.

On Uniformly finitely extensible Banach spaces

We continue the study of Uniformly Finitely Extensible Banach spaces (in short, UFO) initiated in Moreno-Plichko, \emph{On automorphic Banach spaces}, Israel J. Math. 169 (2009) 29--45 and Castillo-Plichko, \emph{Banach spaces in various positions.} J. Funct. Anal. 259 (2010) 2098-2138. We show that they have the Uniform Approximation Property of Pełczyński and Rosenthal and are compactly extensible. We will also consider their connection with the automorphic space problem of Lindenstrauss and Rosenthal --do there exist automorphic spaces other than $c_0(I)$ and $\ell_2(I)$?-- showing that a space all whose subspaces are UFO must be automorphic when it is Hereditarily Indecomposable (HI), and a Hilbert space when it is either locally minimal or isomorphic to its square. We will finally show that most HI --among them, the super-reflexive HI space constructed by Ferenczi-- and asymptotically $\ell_2$ spaces in the literature cannot be automorphic.

On ultrapowers of Banach spaces of type $\mathscr L_\infty$

We prove that no ultraproduct of Banach spaces via a countably incomplete ultrafilter can contain $c_0$ complemented. This shows that a "result" widely used in the theory of ultraproducts is wrong. We then amend a number of results whose proofs had been infected by that statement. In particular we provide proofs for the following statements: (i) All $M$-spaces, in particular all $C(K)$-spaces, have ultrapowers isomorphic to ultrapowers of $c_0$, as well as all their complemented subspaces isomorphic to their square. (ii) No ultrapower of the Gurari\u ı space can be complemented in any $M$-space. (iii) There exist Banach spaces not complemented in any $C(K)$-space having ultrapowers isomorphic to a $C(K)$-space.

Banach spaces of universal disposition

In this paper we present a method to obtain Banach spaces of universal and almost-universal disposition with respect to a given class $\mathfrak M$ of normed spaces. The method produces, among other, the Gurari\uı space $\mathcal G$ (the only separable Banach space of almost-universal disposition with respect to the class $\mathfrak F$ of finite dimensional spaces), or the Kubis space $\mathcal K$ (under {\sf CH}, the only Banach space with the density character the continuum which is of universal disposition with respect to the class $\mathfrak S$ of separable spaces). We moreover show that $\mathcal K$ is not isomorphic to a subspace of any $C(K)$-space -- which provides a partial answer to the injective space problem-- and that --under {\sf CH}-- it is isomorphic to an ultrapower of the Gurari\uı space. We study further properties of spaces of universal disposition: separable injectivity, partially automorphic character and uniqueness properties.

Automorphisms in spaces of continuous functions on Valdivia compacta

We show that there are no automorphic Banach spaces of the form C(K) with K continuous image of Valdivia compact except the spaces c0(I). Nevertheless, when K is an Eberlein compact of finite height such that C(K) is not isomorphic to c0(I), all isomorphism between subspaces of C(K) of size less than aleph_omega extend to automorphisms of C(K).

On Lindenstrauss-Pełczyński spaces

In this work we shall be concerned with some stability aspects of the classical problem of extension of $C(K)$-valued operators. We introduce the class $\mathscr{LP}$ of Banach spaces of Lindenstrauss-Pełczyński type as those such that every operator from a subspace of $c_0$ into them can be extended to $c_0$. We show that all $\mathscr{LP}$-spaces are of type $\mathcal L_\infty$ but not the converse. Moreover, $\mathcal L_\infty$-spaces will be characterized as those spaces $E$ such that $E$-valued operators from $w^*(l_1,c_0)$-closed subspaces of $l_1$ extend to $l_1$. Complemented subspaces of $C(K)$ and separably injective spaces are subclasses of $\mathscr{LP}$-spaces and we show that the former does not contain the latter. It is established that $\mathcal L_\infty$-spaces not containing $l_1$ are quotients of $\mathscr{LP}$-spaces, while $\mathcal L_\infty$-spaces not containing $c_0$, quotients of an $\mathscr{LP}$-space by a separably injective space and twisted sums of $\mathscr{LP}$-spaces are $\mathscr{LP}$-spaces.
