AbstractWe observe that every map between finite-dimensional normed spaces of the same dimension that respects fixed semi-inner products must be automatically a linear isometry. Moreover, we construct a uniformly smooth renorming of the Hilbert space $$\ell _2$$ ℓ 2 and a continuous injection acting thereon that respects the semi-inner products, yet it is non-linear. This demonstrates that there is no immediate extension of the former result to infinite dimensions, even under an extra assumption of uniform smoothness.

AbstractWe study properties of the so-called inner and outer successive radii of special families of convex bodies. First we consider the balls of the $p$-norms, for which we show that the precise value of the outer (inner) radii when $p\geq 2$ ($1\leq p\leq 2$), as well as bounds in the contrary case $1\leq p\leq 2$ ($p\geq 2$), can be obtained as consequences of known results on Gelfand and Kolmogorov numbers of identity operators between finite-dimensional normed spaces. We also prove properties that successive radii satisfy when we restrict to the families of the constant width sets and the $p$-tangential bodies.

One of the important problems of the local theory of Banach Spaces can be stated in the following way. We consider a condition on finite sets in normed spaces that makes sense for a finite set any cardinality. Suppose that the condition is such that to each set satisfying it there corresponds a constant describing “how well” the set satisfies the condition.The problem is:Suppose that a normed space X has a set of large cardinality satisfying the condition with “poor” constant. Does there exist in X a set of smaller cardinality satisfying the condition with a better constant?In the paper this problem is studied for conditions associated with one of R.C. James's characterisations of superreflexivity.
