This Proceedings Volume contains 32 articles on various interesting areas ofpresent-day functional analysis and its applications: Banach spaces andtheir geometry, operator ideals, Banach and operator algebras, operator andspectral theory, Frechet spaces and algebras, function and sequence spaces.The authors have taken much care with their articles and many papers presentimportant results and methods in active fields of research. Several surveytype articles (at the beginning and the end of the book) will be very usefulfor mathematicians who want to learn "what is going on" in some particularfield of research.

This book is a systematic treatment of barrelled spaces, and of structures in which barrelledness conditions are significant. It is a fairly self-contained study of the structural theory of those spaces, concentrating on the basic phenomena in the theory, and presenting a variety of functional-analytic techniques.Beginning with some basic and important results in different branches of Analysis, the volume deals with Baire spaces, presents a variety of techniques, and gives the necessary definitions, exploring conditions on discs to ensure that they are absorbed by the barrels of the space. The abstract theory of barrelled spaces is then presented, as well as local completeness and its applications to the inheritance of the Mackey topology to subspaces. Further discussed is the abstract study of bornological and ultrabornological spaces; B- and Br-completeness; inductive limits; strong barrelledness conditions; characterizations of barrelled, bornological and (DF)-spaces in the context of spaces of type C(X); the stability of barrelledness conditions of topological tensor products and the related questions of commutability of inductive limits and tensor products; and the holomorphically significant properties of locally convex spaces as developed by Nachbin and others.

This volume includes a collection of research articles inFunctional Analysis, celebrating the occasion of Manuel Valdivia''ssixtieth birthday. The papers included in the volume are basedon the main lectures presented during the internationalfunctional analysis meeting held in Peñíscola(Valencia, Spain) in October 1990.During his career, Valdiviahas made contributions to a wide variety of areas of FunctionalAnalysis and his work has had a profound impact. A thoroughappreciation of Valdivia''s work is presented in J.Horváth''s article. In honor of Valdivia''s achievements, this volume presents more than twenty-five papers on topics related to his research(Banach spaces, operator ideals, tensor products, Fréchet,(DF) and (LF) spaces, distribution theory, infinite holomorphyetc.). While the majority of papers are research articles, survey articles are also included. The book covers a broad spectrum of interests in today''s Functional Analysis and presents new results by leading specialists in the field.
