Asymptotic uniform convexity of a norm on an infinite-dimensional Banach space
is positivity, for every
, of the modulus
where
consists of the closed linear subspaces
of finite codimension.
The subspace
may depend on the center
and on
, but must work for every indicated direction. The definition
is abbreviated AUC. AUC renormability instead means existence of an equivalent norm with this property. Asymptotic
midpoint uniform convexity tests opposite directions together and can hold for
a norm that is not asymptotically uniformly convex (Dilworth
et al. 2016).
