Abstract:
We define a universal Fréchet set S of a Banach space Y as a subset containing a point of Fréchet differentiability of every Lipschitz function g : Y -> R. We prove a sufficient condition for S to be a universal Fréchet set and use this to construct new examples of such sets. The strongest such result says that in a non-zero Banach space Y with separable dual one can find a universal Fréchet set S ⊆ Y that is closed, bounded and has Hausdorff dimension one.

Abstract:
The principal objects of study in this thesis are arbitrary spectral families, E, on a complex Banach space X. The central theme is the relationship between the geometry of X and the p-variation of E. We show that provided X is super- reflexive, then given any E, there exists a value 1 · p < 1, depending only on E and X, such that var p(E) < 1. If X is uniformly smooth we provide an explicit range of such values p, which depends only on E and the modulus of convexity of X*, delta X*(.).

Tensor products of Banach Spaces are studied. An introduction to tensor products is given. Some results concerning the reciprocal Dunford-Pettis Property due to Emmanuele are presented. Pelczyriski's property (V) and (V)-sets are studied. It will be shown that if X and Y are Banach spaces with property (V) and every integral operator from X into Y* is compact, then the (V)-subsets of (X⊗F)* are weak* sequentially compact. This in turn will be used to prove some stronger convergence results for (V)-subsets of C(Ω,X)*.

A set S in a Banach space X is called a universal differentiability set if S contains a point of differentiability of every Lipschitz function f : X -> R.

Later, we expand our focus to properties of more general absolutely continuous functions.

Abstract:
A continuous convex function on an open interval of the real line is differentiable everywhere except on a countable subset of its domain. There has been interest in the problem of characterizing those Banach spaces where the continuous functions exhibit similar differentiability properties. In this paper we show that if a Banach space E has property (H*) and B_E• is weak* sequentially compact, then E is an Asplund space. In the case where the space is weakly compactly generated, it is shown that property (H*) is equivalent for the space to admit an equivalent Frechet differentiable norm. Moreover, we define the SH* spaces, show that every SH* space is an Asplund space, and show that every weakly sequentially complete SH* space is reflexive. Also, we study the relation between property (H*) and the asymptotic norming property (ANP). By a slight modification of the ANP we define the ANP*, and show that if the dual of a Banach spaces has the ANP*-I then the space admits an equivalent Fréchet differentiability norm, and that the ANP*-II is equivalent to the space having property (H*) and the closed unit ball of the dual is weak* sequentially compact. Also, we show that in the dual of a weakly countably determined Banach space all the ANP-K'S are equivalent, and they are equivalent for the predual to have property (H*).

Abstract:
The definition of semi-hyperbolic dynamical systems generated by Lipschitz continuous and not necessarily invertible mappings in Banach spaces is presented in this thesis. Like hyperbolic mappings, they involve a splitting into stable and unstable spaces, but a slight leakage from the strict invariance of the spaces is possible and the unstable subspaces are assumed to be finite dimensional. Bi-shadowing is a combination of the concepts of shadowing and inverse shadowing and is usually used to compare pseudo-trajectories calculated by a computer with the true trajectories. In this thesis, the concept of bi-shadowing in a Banach space is defined and proved for semi-hyperbolic dynamical systems generated by Lipschitz mappings. As an application to the concept of bishadowing, linear delay differential equations are shown to be bi-shadowing with respect to pseudo-trajectories generated by nonlinear small perturbations of the linear delay equation. This shows robustness of solutions of the linear delay equation with respect to small nonlinear perturbations. Complicated dynamical behaviour is often a consequence of the expansivity of a dynamical system. Semi-hyperbolic dynamical systems generated by Lipschitz mappings on a Banach space are shown to be exponentially expansive, and explicit rates of expansion are determined. The result is applied to a nonsmooth noninvertible system generated by delay differential equation. It is shown that semi-hyperbolic mappings are locally φ-contracting, where -0 is the Hausdorff measure of noncompactness, and that a linear operator is semi-hyperbolic if and only if it is φ-contracting and has no spectral values on the unit circle. The definition of φ-bi-shadowing is given and it is shown that semi-hyperbolic mappings in Banach spaces are φ-bi-shadowing with respect to locally condensing continuous comparison mappings. The result is applied to linear delay differential equations of neutral type with nonsmooth perturbations. Finally, it is shown that a small delay perturbation of an ordinary differential equation with a homoclinic trajectory is ‘chaotic’.

Abstract:
The theory of 2-convex norms is applied to Banach space valued random vectors. Use is made of a norm on random vectors, introduced by Pisier, equal to the 2-absolutely summing norm on an associated space of operators. For Q the variance of some centred Gaussian random vector in a separable Banach space it is shown that, necessarily, Q factors through l2 as a product of 2-summing operators. This factorisation condition is sufficient when the Banach space is of Gaussian type 2. The stochastic integral of a family of operators with respect to a cylindrical Q-Wiener process is shown to exist under a Hölder continuity condition involving the 2-summing norm. A Langevin equation dZt + ΛZtdt = dBt with values in a separable Banach space is studied. The operator Λ is closed and densely defined. A weak solution (Zt ; Bt), where Zt is centred, Gaussian and stationary while Bt is a Q-Wiener process, is given when iΛ and iΛ* generate C0 groups and the resolvent of Λ is uniformly bounded on the imaginary axis. Both Zt and Bt are stochastic integrals with respect to a spectral Q-Wiener process. The convolution of two arcsine probability densities is shown to be an elliptic integral. Ensembles (Xn)n≥1 of random Hermitian matrices are considered. Each Xn is n by n with distribution invariant under unitary conjugation and induced by a positive weight function on R. New proofs are given of results, due to Boutet de Monvel, Pastur, Shcherbina and Sodin, on the behaviour of the empirical distribution of the eigenvalues of Xn as n tends to infinity. Results in analytic function theory are proved. An H∞ interpolating sequence in the disc D whose Horowitz product does not lie in the Bergman space L2a(D) is exhibited. A condition satisfied by Banach spaces of non-trivial analytic Lusin cotype is obtained.

Abstract:
In this dissertation we study a special sub-collection of Polish metric spaces: complete separable ultrametric spaces. Polish metric spaces have been studied for quite a long while, and a lot of results have been obtained. Motivated by some of earlier research, we work on the following two main parts in this dissertation. In the first part, we show the existence of Urysohn Polish R-ultrametric spaces, for an arbitrary countable set R of non-negative numbers, including 0. Then we give point-by-point construction of a countable R-ultra-Urysohn space. We also obtain a complete characterization for the set R which corresponding to a R-Urysohn metric space. From this characterization we conclude that there exist R-Urysohn spaces for a wide family of countable R. Moreover, we determine the complexity of the classification of all Polish ultrametric spaces. In the second part, we investigate the isometry groups of Polish ultrametric spaces. We prove that isometry group of an Urysohn Polish R-ultrametric space is universal among isometry groups of Polish R-ultrametric spaces. We completely characterize the isometry groups of finite ultrametric spaces and the isometry groups of countable compact ultrametric spaces. Moreover, we give some necessary conditions for finite groups to be isomorphic to some isometry groups of finite ultrametric spaces.

Abstract:
In this thesis we build on the theory concerning the metric geometry of relatively hyperbolic and mapping class groups, especially with respect to the difficulty of embedding such groups into Banach spaces. In Chapter 3 (joint with Alessandro Sisto) we construct simple embeddings of closed graph manifold groups into a product of three metric trees, answering positively a conjecture of Smirnov concerning the Assouad-Nagata dimension of such spaces. Consequently, we obtain optimal embeddings of such spaces into certain Banach spaces. The ideas here have been extended to other closed three-manifolds and to higher dimensional analogues of graph manifolds. In Chapter 4 we give an explicit method of embedding relatively hyperbolic groups into certain Banach spaces, which yields optimal bounds on the compression exponent of such groups relative to their peripheral subgroups. From this we deduce that the fundamental group of every closed three-manifold has Hilbert compression exponent one. In Chapter 5 we prove that relatively hyperbolic spaces with a tree-graded quasi-isometry representative can be characterised by a relative version of Manning's bottleneck property. This applies to the Bestvina-Bromberg-Fujiwara quasi-trees of spaces, yielding an embedding of each mapping class group of a closed surface into a finite product of simplicial trees. From this we obtain explicit embeddings of mapping class groups into certain Banach spaces and deduce that these groups have finite Assouad-Nagata dimension. It also applies to relatively hyperbolic groups, proving that such groups have finite Assouad-Nagata dimension if and only if each peripheral subgroup does.

Abstract:
The research in this thesis was initially motivated by an outstanding problem posed by Argyros and Haydon. They used a generalised version of the Bourgain-Delbaen construction to construct a Banach space $XK$ for which the only bounded linear operators on $XK$ are compact perturbations of (scalar multiples of) the identity; we say that a space with this property has very few operators. The space $XK$ possesses a number of additional interesting properties, most notably, it has $ell_1$ dual. Since $ell_1$ possesses the Schur property, weakly compact and norm compact operators on $XK$ coincide. Combined with the other properties of the Argyros-Haydon space, it is tempting to conjecture that such a space must necessarily have very few operators. Curiously however, the proof that $XK$ has very few operators made no use of the Schur property of $ell_1$. We therefore arrive at the following question (originally posed in cite{AH}): must a HI, $mathcal{L}_{infty}$, $ell_1$ predual with few operators (every operator is a strictly singular perturbation of $lambda I$) necessarily have very few operators? We begin by giving a detailed exposition of the original Bourgain-Delbaen construction and the generalised construction due to Argyros and Haydon. We show how these two constructions are related, and as a corollary, are able to prove that there exists some $delta > 0$ and an uncountable set of isometries on the original Bourgain-Delbaen spaces which are pairwise distance $delta$ apart. We subsequently extend these ideas to obtain our main results. We construct new Banach spaces of Bourgain-Delbaen type, all of which have $ell_1$ dual. The first class of spaces are HI and possess few, but not very few operators. We thus have a negative solution to the Argyros-Haydon question. We remark that all these spaces have finite dimensional Calkin algebra, and we investigate the corollaries of this result. We also construct a space with $ell_1$ Calkin algebra and show that whilst this space is still of Bourgain-Delbaen type with $ell_1$ dual, it behaves somewhat differently to the first class of spaces. Finally, we briefly consider shift-invariant $ell_1$ preduals, and hint at how one might use the Bourgain-Delbaen construction to produce new, exotic examples.

Full text
Abstract:
In this thesis we study Floquet theory on a Banach space. We are concerned about the linear differential equation of the form: y'(t) = A(t)y(t), where t ∈ R, y(t) is a function with values in a Banach space X, and A(t) are linear, bounded operators on X. If the system is periodic, meaning A(t+ω) = A(t) for some period ω, then it is called a Floquet system. We will investigate the existence and uniqueness of the periodic solution, as well as the stability of a Floquet system. This thesis will be presented in five main chapters. In the first chapter, we review the system of linear differential equations on Rn: y'= A(t)y(t) + f(t), where A(t) is an n x n matrix-valued function, y(t) are vectors and f(t) are functions with values in Rn. We establish the general form of the all solutions by using the fundamental matrix, consisting of n independent solutions. Also, we can find the stability of solutions directly by using the eigenvalues of A. In the second chapter, we study the Floquet system on Rn, where A(t+ω) = A(t). We establish the Floquet theorem, in which we show that the Floquet system is closely related to a linear system with constant coefficients, so the properties of those systems can be applied. In particular, we can answer the questions about the stability of the Floquet system. Then we generalize the Floquet theory to a linear system on Banach spaces. So we introduce to the readers Banach spaces in chapter three and the linear operators on Banach spaces in chapter four. In the fifth chapter we study the asymptotic properties of solutions of the system: y'(t) = A(t)y(t), where y(t) is a function with values in a Banach space X and A(t) are linear, bounded operators on X with A (t+ω) = A(t). For that system, we can show the evolution family U(t,s) representing the solutions is periodic, i.e. U(t+ω, s+ω) = U(t,s). Next we study the monodromy of the system V := U(ω,0). We point out that the spectrum set of V actually determines the stability of the Floquet system. Moreover, we show that the existence and uniqueness of the periodic solution of the nonhomogeneous equation in a Floquet system is equivalent to the fact that 1 belongs to the resolvent set of V.

Full text
Abstract:
Spreading models have become fundamental to the study of asymptotic geometry in Banach spaces. The existence of spreading models in every Banach space, and the so-called good sequences which generate them, was one of the first applications of Ramsey theory in Banach space theory. We use Ramsey theory and other techniques from infinitary combinatorics to examine some old and new questions concerning spreading models and good sequences. First, we consider the lp spreading model problem which asks whether a Banach space contains lp provided that every spreading model of a normalized block basic sequence of the basis is isometrically equivalent to lp. Next, using the Hindman-Milliken-Taylor theorem, we prove a new stabilization theorem for spreading models which produces a basic sequence all of whose normalized constant coefficient block basic sequences are good. When the resulting basic sequence is semi-normalized, all the spreading models generated by the above good sequences must be uniformly equivalent to lp or c0. Finally, we investigate the assumption that every normalized block tree on a Banach space has a good branch. This turns out to be a very strong assumption and is equivalent to the space being 1-asymptotic lp. We also show that the stronger assumption that every block basic sequence is good is equivalent to the space being stabilized 1-asymptotic lp.

Abstract:
A norm ||⋅|| on a Banach space X is Fréchet differentiable at x ∈ X if there is a functional ∫∈ X* such that [Formula Omitted] This concept reflects the smoothness characteristics of X. A dual Banach space X* has the Radon-Nikodym Property (RNP) if whenever C ⊂ X* is weak*-compact and convex, and ∈ > 0, there is an x ∈ X and an ⍺ > 0 such that diameter [Formula Omitted] this property reflects the convexity characteristics of X*. Culminating several years of work by many researchers, the following theorem established a strong connection between the smoothness of X and the convexity of X*: Every equivalent norm on X is Fréchet differentiable on a dense set if and only if X* has the RNP. A more general measure of convexity has been recently receiving a great deal of attention: A dual Banach space X* has the weak* Convex Point-of-Continuity Property (C*PCP) if whenever ɸ ≠ C ⊂ X* is weak*-compact and convex, and ∈ > 0, there is a weak*-open set V such that V ⋂ C ≠ ɸ and diam V ⋂ C < ∈. In this thesis, we develop the corresponding smoothness properties of X which are dual to C*PCP. For this, a new type of differentiability, called cofinite Fréchet differentiability, is introduced, and we establish the following theorem: Every equivalent norm on X is cofinitely Fréchet differentiable everywhere if and only if X* has the C*PCP. Representing joint work with R. Deville, G. Godefroy and V. Zizler, an alternate approach is developed in the case when X is separable. We show that if X is separable, then every equivalent norm on X which has a strictly convex dual is Fréchet differentiable on a dense set if and only if X* has the C*PCP, if and only if every equivalent norm on X which is Gâteaux differentiable (everywhere) is Fréchet differentiable on a dense set. This result is used to show that if X* does not have the C*PCP, then there is a subspace Y of X such that neither Y* nor (X/Y)* have the C*PCP, yet both Y and X/Y have finite dimensional Schauder decompositions. The corresponding result for spaces X* failing the RNP remains open.<br>Science, Faculty of<br>Mathematics, Department of<br>Graduate

Abstract:
A fixed point of a mapping is an element in the domain of the mapping that is mapped into itself by the mapping. The study of fixed points has been a field of interests to mathematicians since the discovery of the Banach contraction theorem, i.e. if is a complete metric space and is a contraction mapping (i.e. there exists such that for all ), then has a unique fixed point. The Banach contraction theorem has found many applications in pure and applied mathematics. Due to fixed point theory being a mixture of analysis, geometry, algebra and topology, its applications to other fields such as physics, economics, game theory, chemistry, engineering and many others has become vital. The theory is nowadays a very active field of research in which many new theorems are published, some of them applied and many others generalized. Motivated by all of this, we give an exposition of some generalizations of fixed point theorems in metric fixed point theory, which is a branch of fixed point theory about results of fixed points of mappings between metric spaces, where certain properties of the mappings involved need not be preserved under equivalent metrics. For instance, the contractive property of mappings between metric spaces need not be preserved under equivalent metrics. Since metric fixed point theory is wide, we limit ourselves to fixed point theorems for self and non-self-mappings on Banach and metric spaces. We also take a look at some open problems on this topic of study. At the end of the dissertation, we suggest our own problems for future research.

Abstract:
This thesis studies abstract stochastic differential equations on Banach spaces. The well-posedness of abstract stochastic differential equations on such spaces is a recent result of van Neerven, Veraar and Weis, based on the theory of stochastic integration of Banach space valued processes constructed by the same authors. We study existence and uniqueness for solutions of stochastic differential equations with (possibly infinite) delay in their inputs on UMD Banach spaces. Such problems are also known as functional differential equations or delay differential equations. We show that the methods of van Neerven et al. extend to such problems if the initial history of the system lies in a space of a type introduced by Hale and Kato. The results are essentially of a fixed point type, both autonomous and non-autonomous cases are discussed and an example is given. We also study some long time properties of solutions to these stochastic differential equations on general Banach spaces. We show the existence of solutions to stochastic problems with almost periodicity in a weak or distributional sense. Results are again given for both autonomous and non-autonomous cases and depend heavily on estimates for R-bounds of operator families developed by Veraar. An example is given for a second order differential operator on a domain in ℝ<sup>d</sup>. Finally we consider the existence of invariant measures for such problems. This extends recent work of van Gaans in Hilbert spaces to Banach spaces of type 2.

Abstract:
The goal of this thesis is to give an exposition of the following recent result of Freeman, Lennard, Odell, Turett and Randrianantoanina. A Banach space has the Schur property if and only if every weakly compact set is contained in the closed convex hull of a weakly null sequence. This result complements an old result of Grothendieck (now called the Grothendieck Compactness Principle) stating that every norm compact subset of a Banach space is contained in the closed convex hull of a norm null sequence. We include many of the relevant definitions and preliminary results which are required in the proofs of both of these theorems.

Abstract:
We investigate properties of Koszmider spaces. We show that if K and L are compact Hausdor spaces with no isolated points, K is Koszmider and C(K) is isomorphic to C(L), then K and L are homeomorphic and, in particular, L is also Koszmider. We also analyse topological properties of Koszmider spaces and show that a connected Koszmider space is strongly rigid. In addition to Koszmider spaces, we introduce the notion of weakly Koszmider spaces. Having established an alternative characterisation thereof, we show that, while it is evident that every Koszmider space is weakly Koszmider, the reverse implication does not hold. We also prove that if C(K) and C(L) are isomorphic and K is weakly Koszmider, then so is L. However, if K is Koszmider, there always exists a non-Koszmider space L such that C(K) and C(L) are isomorphic. In the second part of the thesis we present two separable Koszmider spaces the construction of which does not use any set-theoretical assumptions except for the usual (ZFC) axioms. The first space is zero-dimensional, being the Stone space of a Boolean algebra. The second construction results in a separable connected Koszmider space.

Abstract:
We introduce the class AUMD of Banach spaces X for which X-valued analytic martingales converge unconditionally. We shew that various possible definitions of this class are equivalent by methods of martingale decomposition. We shew that such X have finite cotype and are q-complex uniformly convex in the sense of Garling. Using multipliers we shew that analytic martingales valued in L<sup>1</sup> converge unconditionally and that AUMD spaces have the analytic Radon-Nikodym property. We shew that X has the AUMD property if and only if strong Hbrmander-Mihlin multipliers are bounded on the Hardy space H<sup>1</sup><sub>x</sub>(T). We achieve this by representing multipliers as martingale transforms. It is shewn that if X is in AUMD and is of cotype two then X has the Paley Theorem property. Using an isomorphism result we shew that if A is an injective operator system on a separable Hilbert space and P a completely bounded projection on A, then either PA or (I-P)A is completely boundedly isomorphic to A. The finite-dimensional version of this result is deduced from Ramsey's Theorem. It is shewn that B(e<sup>2</sup> is primary. It is shewn that weakly compact homomorphisms T from the 2 disc algebra into B(e<sup>2</sup> are necessarily compact. An explicit form for such T is obtained using spectral projections and it is deduced that such T are absolutely summing.

Abstract:
In this thesis, we consider the recent definition of gravitational energy at the quasi-local level provided by Mu-Tao Wang and Shing-Tung Yau. Their definition poses a variational question predicated on isometric embedding of Riemannian surfaces into the Minkowski space; as such, there is a naturally associated Euler-Lagrange equation, which is a fourth-order system of partial differential equations for the embedding functions. We prove a perturbation result for solutions of this Euler-Lagrange equation.
