Antiproximinal sets in Banach spaces of continuous vector-valued functions (Q5949581)

A closed subset \(Z\neq\emptyset\) of a Banach space \(X\) is called antiproximal if for each \(x\in X\setminus Z\) and each \(z\in Z\) we have \(\inf\{\|x- w\|:w\in Z\}<\|x-z\|\). The author shows that for each real Banach space \(E\) and each compact Hausdorff space \(T\) the space \(C(T,E)\) of all continuous \(E\)-valued functions on \(T\) contains an antiproximinal bounded convex set \(Z\) with non-empty interior. This extends a previous result of V. S. Balaganskii to the vector-valued case.
