Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on a separable Banach space $X$. A subset $U\subset X$ is $\mu$-continuous if $\mu(\partial U)=0$. In the paper the $\mu$-continuity and uniform $\mu$-continuity of convex bodies in $X$, especially of…

We show that on separable Banach spaces admitting a separating polynomial, any uniformly continuous, bounded, real-valued function can be uniformly approximated by Lipschitz, analytic maps on bounded sets.

For two nonempty, closed, bounded and convex subsets $A$ and $B$ of a uniformly convex Banach space $X$ consider a mapping $T:(A \times B) \cup (B \times A) \rightarrow A \cup B$ satisfying $T(A,B) \subset B$ and $T(B, A) \subset A$. In…

We establish an approximate fixed point result for self-maps on compact convex subsets of Hausdorff topological vector spaces where continuity is not a necessary condition.

Given a closed set $C$ in a Banach space $(X, \|\cdot\|)$, a point $x\in X$ is said to have a nearest point in $C$ if there exists $z\in C$ such that $d_C(x) =\|x-z\|$, where $d_C$ is the distance of $x$ from $C$. We shortly survey the…

In this paper, we begin by constructing global linear maps on (n-2)-dimensional subspaces, derived from the local continuity of linear transformations among central sections of a convex body. Using these linear maps, we subsequently…

Given $A$ and $B$ two nonempty subsets in a metric space, a mapping $T : A \cup B \rightarrow A \cup B$ is relatively nonexpansive if $d(Tx,Ty) \leq d(x,y) \text{for every} x\in A, y\in B.$ A best proximity point for such a mapping is a…

We show that sweeping processes with possibly non-convex prox-regular constraints generate a strongly continuous input-output mapping in the space of absolutely continuous functions. Under additional smoothness assumptions on the constraint…

We consider semidifferentiable (possibly nonsmooth) maps, acting on a subset of a Banach space, that are nonexpansive either in the norm of the space or in the Hilbert's or Thompson's metric inherited from a convex cone. We show that the…

Let $(A, B)$ be a nonempty bounded closed convex proximal parallel pair in a nearly uniformly convex Banach space and $T: A\cup B \rightarrow A\cup B$ be a continuous and asymptotically relatively nonexpansive map. We prove that there…

It is a longstanding problem whether every contractible Banach algebra is necessarily finite-dimensional. In this note, we confirm this for Banach algebras acting on Banach spaces with the uniform approximation property. This generalizes a…

This paper combines two ingredients in order to get a rather surprising result on one of the most studied, elegant and powerful tools for solving convex feasibility problems, the method of alternating projections (MAP). Going back to names…

In this paper the theory of uniformly convex metric spaces is developed. These spaces exhibit a generalized convexity of the metric from a fixed point. Using a (nearly) uniform convexity property a simple proof of reflexivity is presented…

We show that for a given initial point the typical, in the sense of Baire category, nonexpansive compact valued mapping $F$ has the following properties: there is a unique sequence of successive approximations and this sequence converges to…

Given a category of objects, it is both useful and important to know if all the objects in the category may be realised as sub-objects -- via morphisms in the given category -- of a single object in that category enjoying some nice…

We consider a new type of mappings in metric spaces so-called mappings contracting total pairwise distance on $n$ points. It is shown that such mappings are continuous. A theorem on the existence of periodic points for such mappings is…

A necessary and sufficient condition for existence of a Banach space with a finite dimensional decomposition but without the $\pi$-property in terms of norms of compositions of projections is found.

This note conducts a comparative study of some approximating properties of the metric projection, generalized projection, and generalized metric projection in uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach spaces. We prove that the inverse…

We prove that every continuous mapping from a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $X$ into $\mathbb{R}^{m}$ can be uniformly approximated by $C^\infty$ smooth mappings {\em with no critical points}. This kind of result can be…

Fixed point theory studies conditions under which nonexpansive maps on Banach spaces have fixed points. This paper examines the open question of whether every reflexive Banach space has the fixed point property. After surveying classical…
