Oltra, S.; Romaguera, S.; Sánchez Pérez, E. A. Continuous convexity and canonical partial metrics in normed spaces. (English) Zbl 1161.46302 Bull. Belg. Math. Soc. - Simon Stevin 15, No. 3, 547-559 (2008). Summary: The aim of this paper is to study the canonical partial metric associated to the norm of a normed space, whose related non-translation-invariant topology can be used to characterize the convexity properties of the original space. In order to do this, we define and characterize a new intermediate geometric property that we call continuous convexity which appears in a natural way in the context of the canonical partial metric topology.
