Extract

All of our work takes place in Ed, d-dimensional Euclidean space, with unit ball B. Unless specifically noted to the contrary, all sets will be presumed to be closed and convex. If X is a subset of a sphere S with centre p, we will say X is spherically convex if X is contained in some open hemisphere of S and if the cone generated by X with vertex p is convex. The distance between two points x, y ε Ed will be denoted |xy|. If K1K2 are two convex sets, ρ(K1, K2) will mean the usual Hausdorff distance between them.
