Classical Analysis and ODEs
Scientific paper
In previous papers, we used abstract potential theory, as developed by Fuglede and Ohtsuka, to a systematic treatment of rendezvous numbers. We introduced energies, Chebyshev constants as two variable set functions, and the modified notion of rendezvous intervals which proved to be rather nicely behaved even for only lower semicontinuous kernels or for not necessarily compact metric spaces. Here we study the rendezvous and average numbers of possibly infinite dimensional normed spaces. It turns out that very general existence and uniqueness results hold for the modified rendezvous numbers in all Banach spaces. We also observe the connections of these "magical numbers" to Chebyshev constants, Chebyshev radius and entropy. Applying the developed notions with the available methods we calculate the rendezvous numbers or rendezvous intervals of certain concrete Banach spaces. In particular, a satisfactory description of the case of L_p spaces is obtained for all p>0.
