Line 19:
* (''X'',&nbsp;||&nbsp;||) is a [[uniformly convex space]] [[if and only if]] its characteristic of convexity ''ε''<sub>0</sub> is equal to&nbsp;0, ''i.e.'', if and only if {{nowrap|''δ''(''ε'') > 0}} for every&nbsp;{{nowrap|''ε'' > 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 ''δ''(2)&nbsp;=&nbsp;1, ''i.e.'', if only [[antipodal point]]s (of the form ''x'' and ''y''&nbsp;=&nbsp;&minus;''x'') of the unit sphere can have distance equal to&nbsp;2.
* When ''X'' is uniformly convex, it admits an equivalent norm with power type modulus of convexity.<ref>see {{harvtxt|Pisier|1975}}.</ref> Namely, there exists {{nowrap|''q'' &ge; 2}} and a constant&nbsp;{{nowrap|''c'' &gt; 0}} such that
::<math>\delta(\varepsilon) \ge c \, \varepsilon^q, \quad \varepsilon \in [0, 2].</math>
