Abstract:

By renorming ${l_1}$ with an equivalent dual norm it is shown that smoothability of the unit ball of a conjugate Banach space ${E^\ast }$ does not imply dentability of the unit ball of either E or ${E^{\ast \ast }}$. It is also shown that the unit ball may be smoothable yet fail to be smooth at any point.
