Abstract
It was shown by Nachbin in 1950 that an -dimensional normed space is injective or equivalently is an absolute 1-Lipschitz retract if and only if is linearly isometric to (i.e., endowed with the -metric). We give an effective convex geometric characterization of injective convex polyhedra in . As an application, we prove that if the set of solutions to a linear system of inequalities with at most two variables per inequality is non-empty, then it is injective when endowed with the -metric.
