Abstract

A norm one element xx of a Banach space is a Daugavet-point (respectively, a Δ\Delta-point) if every slice of the unit ball (respectively, every slice of the unit ball containing xx) contains an element, which is almost at distance 2 from xx. We characterize Daugavet- and Δ\Delta-points in Lipschitz-free spaces. Furthermore, we construct a Lipschitz-free space with the Radon--Nikod\'ym property and a Daugavet-point; this is the first known example of such a Banach space.
