Hyperbolic monotonicity in the Hilbert ball.
We show how Kirszbraun's theorem on extending Lipschitz mappings in Hilbert space implies its own generalization. There is a continuous extension operator preserving the Lipschitz constant of every mapping.
Let X and Y be two closed subspaces of a Hilbert space. If we send a point back and forth between them by orthogonal projections, the iterates converge to the projection of the point onto the intersection of X and Y by a theorem of von Neumann. Any sequence of orthoprojections of a point in a Hilbert space onto a finite family of closed subspaces converges weakly, according to Amemiya and Ando. The problem of norm convergence was open for a long time. Recently Adam Paszkiewicz...
We study various aspects of nonexpansive retracts and retractions in certain Banach and metric spaces, with special emphasis on the compact nonexpansive envelope property.
