Abstract

Let X be a reflexive Banach space. This article presents a number of new characterizations of the topology of Mosco convergence TM for convex sets and functions in terms of natural geometric operators and functional. In addition, necessary and sufficient conditions are given for TM to agree with the weak topology generated by {d(x, C): x є X}, where each distance functional is viewed as a function of the set argument.
