“…It is also well-known (Browder's Theorem [6]) that uniformly convex Banach spaces have the fpp. In [14] Kirk, extending Browder's Theorem, showed that a weakly compact convex subset of a Banach space with normal structure has the fpp. In [2] Alspach exhibited a weakly compact convex subset K of the Lebesgue space L 1 [0,1] and an isometry T : K → K without a fixed point, proving, thereby, that the space L 1 [0, 1] does not have the fpp.…”
