In this paper, we prove that if $E$ is a uniquely remotal subset of a real normed linear space $X$ such that $E$ has a Chebyshev center $c \in X$ and the farthest point map $F:X\rightarrow E$ restricted to $[c,F(c)]$ is partially…
If every point in a normed space X admits a unique farthest point in a given bounded subset E, then must E be a singleton?. This is known as the farthest point problem. In an attempt to solve this problem, we give our contribution toward…
Remotal and uniquely remotal sets play an important role in the area of farthest point problem as well as nearest point problem in a Banach space $X.$ In this study, we find some sufficient conditions for remotality and uniquely remotality…
In a countably normed space which is a linear space equipped with a countable number of pair-wise compatible norms, we prove the existence of a common nearest point (in all norms) from a point outside a nonempty subset if this subset is…
The farthest point map sends a point in a compact metric space to the set of points farthest from it. We focus on the case when this metric space is a convex centrally symmetric polyhedron, so that we can compose the farthest point map with…
Given a lattice L in Z^m and a subset A of R^m, we say that a point in A is lonely if it is not equivalent modulo L to another point of A. We are interested in identifying lonely points for specific choices of L when A is a dilated standard…
In 1960, Klee showed that a subset of a Euclidean space must be a singleton provided that each point in the space has a unique farthest point in the set. This classical result has received much attention; in fact, the Hilbert space version…
We construct a Banach space satisfying that the nearest point map (also called proximity mapping or metric projection) onto any compact and convex subset is continuous but not uniformly continuous. The space we construct is locally…
We study maximal monotone operators $A : X \rightrightarrows X^*$ whose Fitzpatrick family reduces to a singleton; such operators will be called uniquely representable. We show that every such operator is cyclically monotone (hence,…
In this paper, two main results concerning uniformly continuous retractions are proved. First, an $\alpha$-H\"older retraction from any separable Banach space onto a compact convex subset whose closed linear span is the whole space is…
A finite subset $X$ of the Euclidean space is called an $m$-distance set if the number of distances between two distinct points in $X$ is equal to $m$. An $m$-distance set $X$ is said to be maximal if any vector cannot be added to $X$ while…
Let $H$ be a group acting on a simply-connected diagrammatically reducible combinatorial 2-complex $X$ with fine 1-skeleton. If the fixed point set $X^ H$ is non-empty, then it is contractible. Having fine 1-skeleton is a weaker version of…
In this paper, we investigate optimal (partial) transport problems for which the target is a non-convex polygonal domain in \(\mathbb{R}^2\). For the complete optimal transport problem, we prove that the singular set is locally a smooth…
In this paper, with the aid of the simplicial approximation property, the Hopf's construction and Dugundji's homotopy extension Theorem, we first show that if C is a nonempty compact convex subset of an F-space (E; || ||); then for every…
On any compact space one can consider the map which sends a point to the set of points farthest from this point. In nice cases, there is just a single point farthest from a given point and so by restricting the domain slightly one can form…
Complex moment sequences are exactly those which admit positive definite extensions on the integer lattice points of the upper diagonal half-plane. Here we prove that the aforesaid extension is unique provided the complex moment sequence is…
For a minimal inequality derived from a maximal lattice-free simplicial polytope in $\R^n$, we investigate the region where minimal liftings are uniquely defined, and we characterize when this region covers $\R^n$. We then use this…
We study a property of $2$-strong uniqueness of a best approximation in a class of finite-dimensional complex normed spaces, for which the unit ball is an absolutely convex hull of finite number of points and in its dual class. We prove…
We show that every infinite dimensional Banach space has a closed and bounded convex set that is not remotal.
A subset of a normed space $X$ is called equilateral if the distance between any two points is the same. Let $m(X)$ be the smallest possible size of an equilateral subset of $X$ maximal with respect to inclusion. We first observe that…
