โฆ Synopsis
In this paper, we prove that every isometry from a nonempty weakly compact convex set K into itself fixes a point in the Chebyshev center of K, provided K satisfies the hereditary fixed point property for isometries. In particular, all isometries from a nonempty bounded closed convex subset of a uniformly convex Banach space into itself have the Chebyshev center as a common fixed point.

A convex subset K of a vector space E over the field of real numbers is linearly bounded (linearly closed) if every line intersects K in a bounded (closed) subset of the line. A hyperplane is the set of x ~ E that satisfy a linear equationf(x) = c, wherefis a linear functional and c is a real number
We consider the problem of obtaining "nice" quadrangulations of planar sets of points. For many applications "nice" means that the quadrilaterals obtained are convex if possible and as "fat" or squarish as possible. For a given set of points a quadrangulation, if it exists, may not admit all its qua
