Abstract:

A corollary of the Bishop-Phelps theorem is that a closed convex subset $C$ of a Banach space can always be represented as the intersection of its supporting closed half-spaces. In this paper an investigation is made of those subsets $S$ of $C$ such that $C$ is the intersection of those closed half-spaces which support it at points of $C\backslash S$. This will be true for sets $S$ which are "small" relative to $C$, where smallness can be measured in terms of dimension, density character, or $\sigma$-compactness.
