Review text

Let \(X\) be a Banach space. A closed subspace \(Y \subset X\) is said to be ball proximinal if the closed unit ball \(B_Y\) is a proximinal set in \(X\). Such subspaces are proximinal. Motivated by an example of a proximinal subspace that is not ball proximinal, due to \textit{F. B. Saidi} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 133, No. 9, 2697--2703 (2005; Zbl 1071.41033)], the reviewer in a joint work with \textit{P. Bandyopadhyay} et al. [in: Banach spaces and their applications in analysis. Proceedings of the international conference, Miami University, Oxford, OH, USA, 2006. Berlin: Walter de Gruyter. 251--264 (2007; Zbl 1135.41011)], initiated the study of such subspaces.NEWLINENEWLINEAn interesting question is to know what stronger forms of proximinality will imply ball proximinality. The second author in a joint work with and \textit{S. Lalithambigai} [J. Convex Anal. 18, No. 2, 353--366 (2011; Zbl 1219.46015)] recently investigated this question and found some positive results.NEWLINENEWLINEThe present work considers the concept of strong proximinality and its variant, the strongly Chebyshev subspace, and shows that by a renorming, a hyperplane which has this property but is not ball proximinal exists in any non-reflexive Banach space.
