On almost Chebyshev subspaces

A closed subspace F in a Banach space X is called almost Chebyshev if the set of x ε X which fail to have unique best approximation in F is contained in a first category subset. We prove, among other results, that if X is a separable Banach space which is either locally uniformly convex or has the Radon-Nikodym property, then “almost all” closed subspaces are almost Chebyshev.
