Parallelogram inequalities in Banach spaces and some properties of a dual mapping (Q912355)

Let X be a Banach space, \(\delta\) (.) the modulus of convexity and \(\rho\) (.) the modulus of smoothness of X. Then \[ L^{-1}\delta (\| x- y\|)/C_ 2(\| x\|,\| y\|))\leq 2\| x\|^ 2+2\| y\|^ 2-\| x+y\|^ 2\leq 4\| x-y\|^ 2+C_ 1(\| x\|,\| y\|)\rho (\| x-y\|), \] where \(C_ 1(s,t)=4 \max (L,(s+t)/2),\) \(C_ 2(s,t)=2 \max (1,\sqrt{(s^ 2+t^ 2)/2})\) and \(0<L<3.18\). There are given applications to the duality mapping.
