Common supports of families of sets (Q1336205): Difference between revisions

For a family \(A\) of closed bounded convex sets of a Banach space sufficient conditions are given for the existence of a closed hyperplane which supports each member of \(A\) in such a way that all of them are contained in the same closed halfspace. One of the sufficient conditions is that all members of \(A\) surround a flat \(F\), which means that \(F\) intersects the convex hull of all members of \(A\) but not of any subfamily. Also separating common supports are considered.
