We show that every subset of L¹[0,1] that contains the nontrivial intersection of an order interval and finitely many hyperplanes fails to have the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings.
We give a basic sequence characterization of relative weak compactness in c₀ and we construct new examples of closed, bounded, convex subsets of c₀ failing the fixed point property for nonexpansive self-maps. Combining these results, we derive the following characterization of weak compactness for closed, bounded, convex subsets C of c₀: such a C is weakly compact if and only if all of its closed, convex, nonempty subsets have the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings.
