In recent years fixed point theorems have been proved for non-expansive and similar mappings on uniformly convex Banach spaces. The only role the linear structure plays in the statement of these results occurs in the definition of uniform convexity. It is therefore natural to ask whether the results depend essentially on the linear structure, or whether an extension of the notion of uniform convexity to metric spaces would allow the hypothesis of linear structure on the underlying space to be removed.
