Norm one projections in Banach spaces
On all of the familiar Banach spaces, it is very easy to write down a formula which defines a norm one (linear) projection. This is not true for arbitrary Banach spaces. The following rough trichotomy indicates the range of behaviour.
The seminar is going to take place at 10:00 in B3-38.
