摘要

We construct a Banach space X with the r-BSP such that the infimum of the diameter of the slices of the unit ball is 1, which gives negative answer to a 2006 question by Y. Ivakhno in an extreme way. This example is performed by considering modifications of the classical James-tree space JT constructed on a tree with infinitely many branching points T. Moreover, we prove that every Banach space with the Daugavet property admits, for every ε > 0, an equivalent renorming for which its Daugavet index of thickness is bigger than 2 − ε and there are slices of the unit ball of diameter strictly smaller than 2, which solves an open question from [7].
