Abstract : Let $G$ be a closed subspace of a Banach space $X$ and let
$(S, \Omega, \mu)$ be a $\sigma$-finite measure space.
It was known that
$L_1(S,G)$ is proximinal in $L_1(S,X)$
if and only if
$L_p(S,G)$ is proximinal in $L_p(S,X)$ for $1
In this article we show that this result remains true when "proximinal" is replaced by
"Chebyshev".
In addition, it is shown that if $G$ is a proximinal subspace of $X$ such that
either $G$ or the kernel of the metric projection $P_G$ is separable then, for
$0
