[For the entire collection see Zbl 0745.00050.] The following specific concept is used: Let \(K\) be a closed and convex subset of a Banach space \(X\). A subset \(D\) of \(K\) is said to be a nonexpansive retract of \(K\) if either \(D=\emptyset\) or there exists a nonexpansive retraction of \(K\) onto \(D\). \textit{R. E. Bruck} first noticed the connection between fixed point sets, nonexpansive mappings and nonexpansive retracts [Bull. Am. Math. Soc. 76, 384-386 (1974; Zbl 0224.47034)]. A main result of this paper is the following \textit{Bruck's} theorem generalization [Pac. J. Math. 53, 59-71 (1974; Zbl 0312.47045)]. Let \(K\) be a nonempty \(\tau\)-compact convex subset of a Banach \(X\) whose unit ball is \(\tau\)-compact relative to some Hausdorff vector topology \(\tau\) on \(X\), suppose \({\mathfrak S}\) is a family of nonexpansive selfmapping of \(K\), let \(A\) denote the common fixed point set of \({\mathfrak S}\), and suppose (1) \(A\) intersects every bounded \(\tau\)-closed convex \({\mathfrak S}\)- invariant subset of \(K\). Then \(A\) is a nonexpansive retract of \(K\). The proof is based on Zorn's lemma and a slight modification of Bruck's proof. The second part of the paper deals with other special cases.
