Abstract
Let
X denote
Rn or, more generally, a Hilbert space. Given an arbitrary subset
C of
X and a collection
H of affine hyperplanes of
X such that every
H∈H passes through some point
xH∈C, and
C={xH:H∈H}, what conditions are necessary and sufficient for the existence of a
C1,1 convex hypersurface
S in
X such that
H is tangent to
S at
xH for every
H∈H? In this paper we give an answer to this question. We also provide solutions to similar problems for convex hypersurfaces of class
C1,ω in Hilbert spaces, and for convex hypersurfaces of class
C1,α in superreflexive Banach spaces having equivalent norms with moduli of smoothness of power type
1+α,
α∈(0,1].
