Let E be a real normed linear space with unit ball B and unit sphere S. The classical modulus of convexity of J. A. Clarkson [2] δE(ε) = inf {1 - 1/2||x + y||: x,y ∈ B, ||x - y|| ≥ ε} (0 ≤ ε ≤ 2)is well known and it is at the origin of a great number of moduli defined by several authors. Among them, D. F. Cudia [3] defined the directional, weak and directional weak modulus of convexity of E, respectively, asδE(ε,g) = inf {1 - 1/2||x + y||: x,y ∈ B, g(x-y) ≥ ε}δE(ε,f) = inf {1 - 1/2 f(x,y): x,y ∈ B, ||x - y|| ≥ ε}δE(ε,f,g) = inf {1 - 1/2 f(x,y): x,y ∈ B, g(x-y) ≥ ε}where 0 ≤ ε ≤ 2 and f,g ∈ S' (unit sphere of the topological dual space E').D. F. Cudia [3] has shown the close connection existing between these moduli and various differentiability conditions of the norm in E'.In this note we study these moduli from a different point of view, then we analyze some of its properties and we see that it is possible to characterize inner product spaces by means of them.
