Let be a closed bounded convex subset of a real Banach space with 0 as its interior and the Minkowski functional generated by the set . For a nonempty set in and ∈ , 0 ∈ is called the generalized best approximation to from if ( 0 − ) ≤ ( − ) for all ∈ . In this paper, we will give a distance formula under from a point to a closed hyperplane ( * , ) in determined by a nonzero continuous linear functional * in and a real number , a representation of the generalized metric projection onto ( * , ), and investigate the continuity of this generalized metric projection, extending corresponding results for the case of norm.
