AbstractA Δ-point x of a Banach space is a norm-one element that is arbitrarily close to convex combinations of elements in the unit ball that are almost at distance 2 from x. If, in addition, every point in the unit ball is arbitrarily close to such convex combinations, x is a Daugavet point. A Banach space X has the Daugavet property if and only if every norm-one element is a Daugavet point. We show that Δ- and Daugavet points are the same in L1-spaces, in L1-preduals, as well as in a big class of Müntz spaces. We also provide an example of a Banach space where all points on the unit sphere are Δ-points, but none of them are Daugavet points. We also study the property that the unit ball is the closed convex hull of its Δ-points. This gives rise to a new diameter-two property that we call the convex diametral diameter-two property. We show that all C(K) spaces, K infinite compact Hausdorff, as well as all Müntz spaces have this property. Moreover, we show that this property is stable under absolute sums.

AbstractWe show that there is no non-constant assignment of zeros and ones to points of a unit sphere in $$\mathbb{R}^3$$ R 3 such that for every three pairwisely orthogonal vectors, an odd number of them is assigned 1. This is a new strengthening of the Bell–Kochen–Specker theorem, which proves the non-existence of hidden variables in quantum theories.

If ρ(G) is a finite, real, orthogonal group of matrices acting on the real vector space V, then there is defined [5], by the action of ρ(G), a convex subset of the unit sphere in V called a fundamental region. When the unit sphere is covered by the images under ρ(G) of a fundamental region, we obtain a semi-regular figure.The group-theoretical problem in this kind of geometry is to find when the fundamental region is unique. In this paper we examine the subgroups, ρ(H), of ρ(G) with a view of finding what subspace, W of V consists of vectors held fixed by all the matrices of ρ(H). Any such subspace lies between two copies of a fundamental region and so contributes to a boundary of both. If enough of these boundaries might be found, the fundamental region would be completely described.

A Banach space X is said to have property (Sm) if every metrically convex set A ⊂ X which lies on the unit sphere and has diameter not greater than one can be (weakly) separated from zero by a functional. We show that this geometrical condition is closely connected with the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings in superreflexive spaces.
