-convexity and best approximation.
In the first section of this paper there are given criteria for strict convexity and smoothness of the Bochner-Orlicz space with the Orlicz norm as well as the Luxemburg norm. In the second one that geometrical properties are applied to the characterization of metric projections and zero mean valued best approximants to Bochner-Orlicz spaces.
Let X be a closed subspace of c₀. We show that the metric projection onto any proximinal subspace of finite codimension in X is Hausdorff metric continuous, which, in particular, implies that it is both lower and upper Hausdorff semicontinuous.
