In this paper, we show that if E is an order continuous Köthe function space and Y is a separable subspace ofX, then E(Y ) is ball proximinal in E(X) if and only if Y is ball proximinal in X. As a consequence, E(Y ) is proximinal in E(X) if and only if Y is proximinal in X. This solves an open problem of Bandyopadhyay, Lin and Rao. It is also shown that if E is a Banach lattice with a 1-uncondi...

We show that a separable proximinal subspace of X, say Y is strongly proximinal (strongly ball proximinal) if and only if Lp(I, Y ) is strongly proximinal (strongly ball proximinal) in Lp(I,X), for 1 ≤ p <∞. The p =∞ case requires a stronger assumption, that of ’uniform proximinality’. Further, we show that a separable subspace Y is ball proximinal in X if and only if Lp(I, Y ) is ball proximin...

the main purpose of this paper is to find t-best approximations in fuzzy normed spaces. we introduce the notions of t-proximinal sets and f-approximations and prove some interesting theorems. in particular, we investigate the set of all t-best approximations to an element from a set.

The main purpose of this paper is to consider the t-best co-approximation and t-best simultaneous co-approximation in fuzzy normed spaces. We develop the theory of t-best co-approximation and t-best simultaneous co-approximation in quotient spaces. This new concept is employed us to improve various characterisations of t-co-proximinal and t-co-Chebyshev sets.

A known, and easy to establish, fact in Best Approximation Theory is that, if the unit ball of a subspace G of a Banach space X is proximinal in X, then G itself is proximinal in X. We are concerned in this article with the reverse implication, as the knowledge of whether the unit ball is proximinal or not is useful in obtaining information about other problems. We show, by constructing a count...

The main purpose of this paper is to consider the new kind of approximation which is called as t-best coapproximation in fuzzy n-normed spaces. The set of all t-best coapproximation define the t-coproximinal, t-co-Chebyshev and F-best coapproximation and then prove several theorems pertaining to this sets. Keywords—Fuzzy-n-normed space, best coapproximation, co-proximinal, co-Chebyshev, F-best ...

Let Y be a proximinal subspace of finite codimension of c0. We show that Y is proximinal in ∞ and the metric projection from ∞ onto Y is Hausdorff metric continuous. In particular, this implies that the metric projection from ∞ onto Y is both lower Hausdorff semi-continuous and upper Hausdorff semi-continuous.

In this paper, we show that a closed convex set C of a Banach space is strongly proximinal (proximinal, resp.) in every Banach space isometrically containing it if and only if C is locally (weakly, resp.) compact. As a consequence, it is proved that local compactness of C is also equivalent to that for every Banach space Y isometrically containing it, the metric projection from Y to C is nonemp...
