A characterization of alternatively convex or smooth Banach spaces

Source abstract

In this paper, we give a characterization of alternatively convex or smooth Banach spaces. In fact we prove that every normaloid numerical radius attaining operator on a Banach space $X$ is radialoid if and only if $X$ is alternatively convex or smooth. In addition, we show that every compact normaloid operator on $X$ is radialoid if and only if every rank one normaloid operator on X is radialoid. Finally we present some types of Banach spaces on which the compact normaloid operators are radialoid.
