[Banach] Abstract of a paper by Vladimir P. Fonf, Michael Levin and Clemente Zanco

This is an announcement for the paper "Covering $L^p$ spaces by balls" by Vladimir P. Fonf, Michael Levin and Clemente Zanco. Abstract: We prove that, given any covering of any separable infinite-dimensional uniformly rotund and uniformly smooth Banach space $X$ by closed balls each of positive radius, some point exists in $X$ which belongs to infinitely many balls.
