Abstract: | This paper is motivated by recent attempts to investigate classical notions from finite-dimensional convex geometry in spaces
of continuous functions. Let
be the family of all closed, convex and bounded subsets of C(K) endowed with the Hausdorff metric. A completion of
is a diametrically maximal set
satisfying A ⊂ D and diam A = diam D. Using properties of semicontinuous functions and an earlier result by Papini, Phelps and the author 12], we characterize
the family γ(A) of all possible completions of
. We give also a formula which calculates diam γ(A) and prove finally that, if K is a Hausdorff compact space with card K > 1, then the family of those elements of
having a unique completion is uniformly very porous in
with a constant of lower porosity greater than or equal to 1/3. |
