Modulus of supporting convexity and supporting smoothness

Functional Analysis 2015-11-17 v3

Abstract

We introduce the moduli of the supporting convexity and the supporting smoothness of a Banach space, which characterize the deviation of the unit sphere from an arbitrary supporting hyperplane. We show that the modulus of supporting smoothness, the Bana{\'s} modulus, and the modulus of smoothness are all equivalent at zero, the modulus of supporting convexity is equivalent at zero to the modulus of convexity. We prove a Day--Nordlander type result for these moduli.
