On Asymptotically Isometric Copies of l~β(0 < β < 1)

We get the characterizations of the family of all nonnegative,subadditive,β-absolutely homogeneous and continuous functionals defined on X,when the β-normed space X contains an asymptotically isometric copy of lβ.Moreover,it is proved that if a closed bounded β-convex subset K of a β-normed space contains an asymptotically isometric lβ-basis,then K contains a closed β-convex subset C which fails the fixed point property.
