Examples of proper \(k\)-ball contractive retractions in \(F\)-normed spaces (Q2642174)

A continuous map \(G\) on an infinite dimensional \(F\)-normed space \(X\) is called \(k\)-ball contractive if there is a \(k \geq 0\) such that \(\gamma(GA) \leq k\gamma(A)\) for each bounded subset \(A\) of \(X\), where \(\gamma\) denotes the Hausdorff measure of noncompactness (i.e. the infimum of all \(\varepsilon > 0\) such that \(A\) has a finite \(\varepsilon\)-net in \(X\)). The authors consider the problems of estimating certain constants defined by \textit{J. Wośko} [Ann. Univ. Mariae Curie-Sklodowska, Sect. A 45, 127--130 (1991; Zbl 0784.47049)] in certain classes of regular \(F\)-normed ideal spaces of measurable functions. Based on the results obtained they are able to construct examples of regular \(F\)-normed ideal spaces in which there is a 1-ball or a (1 + \(\varepsilon\))-ball contractive retraction of a ball (properly contained) in \(X\) onto its boundary with positive lower Hausdorff measure of noncompactness.
