Synopsis

Let E1 and E2 be real normed linear spaces such that the dimension of any of them is at least 2. We prove that the norms in E1 × E2 which verify a simple property of monotonicity with regard to the initial norms in E1 and E2 are the only norms in E1 × E2 which preserve best linear approximations, in the sense that ifykLk is best approximation to xk from the linear subspace Lk, (k = 1,2), then (y1, y2) is best approximation to (x1, x2) from L1 × L2.
