Line 15:
* The modulus of convexity, ''δ''(''ε''), is a [[monotonic function|non-decreasing]] and [[convex function]] of ''ε''.
* (''X'',&nbsp;||&nbsp;||) is a [[uniformly convex space]] [[if and only if]] its characteristic of convexity ''&epsilon;''<sub>0</sub>&nbsp;=&nbsp;0.
* (''X'',&nbsp;||&nbsp;||) is a [[strictly convex space]] (i.e., the boundary of the unit ball ''B'' contains no line segments) if and only if ''&delta;''(2)&nbsp;=&nbsp;1.
