The Connection Between the Metric and Generalized Projection Operators in Banach Spaces

Abstract

In this paper we study the connection between the metric projection operator P K : B → K, where B is a reflexive Banach space with dual space B* and K is a non–empty closed convex subset of B, and the generalized projection operators ∏ K : B → K and π K : B* → K. We also present some results in non–reflexive Banach spaces.
