Analisis Matematico, Universidad de Alicante, Ap. de Correos 99, 03080 Alicante, Spain gaspar.mora@ua.es It is shown in this paper that the notion of α-dense curve in a bounded set of a metric space produces a degree of nondensifiability φd which extended to convex hulls of bounded sets in a Banach space generates a measure of noncompactness (briefly MNC) Φ that we will call degree of convex nondensifiability. We also prove that Φ dominates any other MNC and, in particular, dominates the MNC of Hausdorff of the best possible form in infinite dimensional Banach spaces. Keywords: alpha-dense curves, degree of nondensifiability, degree of convex nondensifiability, measures of noncompactness. MSC: 47H08, 46B20 [ Fulltext-pdf (157 KB)] for subscribers only. |
