Infinite convex combinations in a Banach space
Let's say that a subset $C$ of a Banach space $X$ is $\sigma$-convex if the following property holds:
For any sequence $(x_k)_{k\ge0}$ in $C$, and for
any sequence of non-negative real numbers $(\...

A natural center of a convex weakly compact set in Banach space
Question: Let $S$ be a convex weakly compact set in Banach space $H$. Propose a natural way to define the unique center $O \in S$.
Motivation: A lot! For example, in game theory $S$ can be a set of ...

A criterion for the sum of two closed sets to be closed ?
Let $V$ and $I$ be two closed subsets of a Banach space $A$.
The set $V$ is a convex cone, and $I$ is a linear subspace of $A$. I also know that $V\cap I=\{0\}$.
I would like to know whether $I+V$ ...

volume of the unit ball of the Banach space $\ell_1^n\otimes_{\epsilon}\ell_1^n$?
We denote by $\otimes_{\epsilon}$ the injective Banach tensor product.
Which is the asymptotic volume of the unit ball of the Banach space $\ell_1^n\otimes_{\epsilon}\ell_1^n$?

Extremal bases in finite-dimensional Banach spaces
Definition. A basis $e_1,\dots,e_n$ for a Banach space $X$ is called extremal if there exists a point $s$ in the unit sphere $S_X=\{x\in X:\|x\|=1\}$ such that for every $i\in\{1,\dots,n\}$ the ...

Integral means vs infinite convex combinations
Let $(X,\mathcal A, \mu)$ be a probability space, $\mathbb E$ a Banach space, and $f:X\to\mathbb E$ a Bochner integrable function.
Does there exist a sequence $(x_k)_{k\ge 1} $ in $X$, and a ...

Minkowski's Inequality for Integrals in Orlicz spaces
EDIT: I have changed the question to have less parameters, fitting it into the context of Orlicz spaces.
Suppose $f:[0,\infty)\to[0,\infty)$ is convex and increasing, $f^{-1}:[0,\infty)\to[0,\infty)$...

How to calculate the volume of a section of a convex body?
The following is essentially a partial case for my previous question.
Let $B\subset\mathbb{R}^m$ be the unit ball with respect to a concrete norm on $\mathbb{R}^m$, say $l^p$-norm, $p\in (1,\infty)$....

What is the doubling dimension of convex functions?
I am interested in the complexity of convex functions, specifically the "doubling dimension" of the class of convex functions defined on a compact subset of Euclidean space, when compared using the $L^...

If the closed unit ball of Banach space has at least one extreme point, must the Banach space the be a dual space?
Let $X$ be a Banach space.
By Banach-Alaoglu and Krein-Milman Theorems, one can show that if $X$ is a dual space, then $X$ must have at least one extreme point of the closed unit ball.
I am ...

Quotient space of a locally uniformly rotund space
If $X$ is a uniformly rotund space , then for any closed subspace $M$ of $X$, $X/M$ is uniformly rotund. Does this hold for a locally uniformly rotund space? That is if $X$ is locally uniformly ...

Does there exists an example of a Banach space that is compactly LUR; but not LUR
We know that a Banach space $X$ is locally uniformly rotund(LUR) if for $x, x_n \in S_X$ with $\Vert x+x_n \Vert \to 2$, we have $x_n \to x$. In the same case, if $(x_n)$ has a convergent subsequence, ...

Necessary conditions for optimality in Banach spaces
Let $X$ denote the non-negative "orthant" of the Banach space $L^2$ (or whatever you call the set of functions in $L^2$ that are non-negative), and let $C$ be a closed, convex subset of $X$. Let $f$ ...

does every compact convex set in c0 have but countably many extreme points
This seems plausible, given the properties of the unit ball of $c_0$.
I have a compact set in a complex Banach space $X$ whose closed convex hull has uncountably many extreme points. It would be ...

A generalization of strict convexity
Consider the following properties of a Banach space:
the intersection of any support hyperplane with the unit sphere is
(S) a singleton (this is the strict convexity);
(SF) finite-dimensional set;...

Does there exists a smooth reflexive infinite dimensional Banach space that is not strictly convex
It is known that in a reflexive Banach space, if the norm is strictly convex, then its dual will be smooth Banach space, and if the norm is smooth, then the dual norm is strictly convex.
We can find ...
