For a nonempty separable convex subsetXof a Hilbert spaceℍ(Ω), it is typical (in the sense of Baire category) that a bounded closed convex setC⊂ℍ(Ω)defines anm-valued metric antiprojection (farthest point mapping) at the points of a dense subset ofX, whenevermis a positive integer such thatm≤dimX+1.

AbstractThe Bishop-Phelps theorem guarantees the existence of support points and support functionals for a nonempty closed convex subset of a Banach space; equivalently, it guarantees the existence of subdifferentials and points of subdifferentiability of a proper lower semicontinuous convex function on a Banach space. In this note we show that most of these results cannot be extended to pairs of convex sets or functions, even in Hilbert space. For instance, two proper lower semicontinuous convex functions need not have a common point of subdifferentiability nor need they have a subdifferential in common. Negative answers are also obtained to certain questions concerning density of support points for the closed sum of two convex subsets of Hilbert space.

The Hausdorff distance between a compact convex set K ⊂ ℝd and random sets is studied. Basic inequalities are derived for the case of being a convex subset of K. If applied to special sequences of such random sets, these inequalities yield rates of almost sure convergence. With the help of duality considerations these results are extended to the case of being the intersection of a random family of halfspaces containing K.

We give continuous separation theorems for convex sets in a real linear space equipped with a norm that can assume the value infinity. In such a space, it may be impossible to continuously strongly separate a point $p$ from a closed convex set not containing $p$, that is, closed convex sets need not be weakly closed. As a special case, separation in finite-dimensional extended normed spaces is considered at the outset.

The numerical range W(T) of a bounded linear operator T on a Hilbert space H is defined byW(T) is always a convex subset of the plane [1] and clearly W(T) is bounded since it is contained in the ball of radius ‖T‖ about the origin. Which non-empty convex bounded subsets of the plane are the numerical range of an operator? The theorem we prove below shows that every non-empty convex bounded subset of the plane is W(T) for some T.

In this paper, we prove that if C⁎⁎ is a ε-separable bounded subset of X⁎⁎, then every convex function g≤σC is Ga^teaux differentiable at a dense Gδ subset G of X⁎ if and only if every subset of ∂σC(0)∩X is weakly dentable. Moreover, we also prove that if C is a closed convex set, then dσC(x⁎)=x if and only if x is a weakly exposed point of C exposed by x⁎. Finally, we prove that X is an Asplund space if and only if, for every bounded closed convex set C⁎ of X⁎, there exists a dense subset G of X⁎⁎ such that σC⁎ is Ga^teaux differentiable on G and dσC⁎(G)⊂C⁎. We also prove that X is an Asplund space if and only if, for every w⁎-lower semicontinuous convex function f, there exists a dense subset G of X⁎⁎ such that f is Ga^teaux differentiable on G and df(G)⊂X⁎.

Let K be a bounded, closed convex set in the euclidean plane. We denote the diameter, width, perimeter, area, inradius, and circumradius of K by d, w, p, A, r, and R respectively. We establish a number of best possible upper bounds for (w−2r)d, (w−2r)R,(w−2r)p, (w−2r)A in terms of w and r. Examples are:
