Abstract

For every n = 2, 3,…, the minimum of the Steiner subratio is found for n-point sets in Banach spaces, and an example of a Banach space is constructed for which this minimum is attained. An example of a Banach space for which the minimum possible Steiner subratio equals 1/2 is also constructed.
