The notion of ball proximinality and the strong ball proximinality were recently introduced in [2]. We prove that a closed * subalgebra A of C(Q) is strongly ball proximinal in C(Q) and the metric projection from C(Q), onto the closed unit ball of A, is Hausdorff metric continuous and hence has continuous selection.
Some existence results on best approximation are proved without starshaped subset and affine mapping in the set up of -normed space. First, we consider the closed subset and then weakly compact subsets for said purpose. Our results improve the result of Mukherjee and Som (Mukherjee, R. N., Som, T., A note on an application of a fixed point theorem in approximation theory, Indian J. Pure Appl. Math. 16(3) (1985), 243–244.) and Jungck and Sessa (Jungck, G., Sessa, S., Fixed point theorems in best...
Let be a nonempty compact subset of a Banach space and denote by the family of all nonempty bounded closed convex subsets of . We endow with the Hausdorff metric and show that there exists a set such that its complement is -porous and such that for each and each , the set of solutions of the best approximation problem , , is nonempty and compact, and each minimizing sequence has a convergent subsequence.
If f is a continuous seminorm, we prove two f-best approximation theorems for functions Φ not necessarily continuous as a consequence of our version of Glebov's fixed point theorem. Moreover, we obtain another fixed point theorem that improves a recent result of [4]. In the last section, we study continuity-type properties of set valued parametric projections and our results improve recent theorems due to Mabizela [11].
