Theory of Strict Convexity, Best Approximation and Fixed Points

About the Book

The present book is a study of strictly convex linear metric spaces and some results on approximation and fixed points in metric linear spaces and metric spaces. In this introductory chapter, we give a brief historical background of the subject (strict convexity and approximation theory applications of fixed point theorems to approximation theory) and a chapterwise summary of the results contained in this book.
