Abstract

It has recently been shown that a Banach space enjoys the weak fixed point property if it is ε0-inquadrate for some ε0 < 2 and has WORTH; that is, if then, ║xnx║ — ║xn + x║ → 0, for all x. We establish the stronger conclusion of weak normal structure under the substantially weaker assumption that the space has WORTH and is ‘ε0-inquadrate in every direction’ for some ε0 < 2.
