The fixed point property in Banach spaces with the NUS-property (Q1378578)

It is well-known that a Banach space \(X\) has the weak fixed point property if every nonexpansive mapping \(T:K\to K\), where \(K\) is a weakly compact convex subset of \(X\), has a fixed point. The fixed point aspirants have established that, under various geometric conditions on the norm of \(X\), the fixed point property (FPP) is guaranteed. In the present paper, the author shows that the weak nearly uniform (WNUS) Banach spaces have the FPP for nonexpansive mappings, where a characterization of WNUS Banach spaces, via a Banach space coefficient, is due to the author.
