Abstract:

Let C be a closed set of second category in a normed linear space, and let ${C^\ast }$ be the subset of C each point of which sees all points of C except a set of first category. If ${C^\ast }$ is nonempty, then ${C^\ast }$ is a closed convex set. Moreover, $C = K \cup P$ where K is a closed starshaped set with convex kernel ${C^\ast }$ and P is a set of first category.
