Convex sets with the Lipschitz fixed point property are compact. (English) Zbl 0566.47039
The authors have constructed a Lipschitz self mapping with fixed point. Using this result, they prove that a closed convex set in normed space has the fixed point property for Lipschitz maps if and only if it is compact. But the following problem is still open.
Problem. Let K be a weakly compact convex subset of $$c_ 0$$. Does K have the fixed point property for uniformly Lipschitz maps?
