Abstract

A monotone path-connected set is known to be a sun in a finite-dimensional Banach space. We show that a B-sun (a set whose intersection with each closed ball is a sun or empty) is a sun. We prove that in this event a B-sun with ORL-continuous (outer radially lower continuous) metric projection is a strict sun. This partially converses one well-known result of Brosowski and Deutsch. We also show that a B-solar LG-set (a global minimizer) is a B-connected strict sun.
