Plasticity of the unit ball of c and c0

Abstract

We prove the plasticity of the unit ball of c. That is, we show that every non-expansive bijection from the unit ball of c onto itself is an isometry. We also demonstrate a slightly weaker property for the unit ball of c0 -- we prove that a non-expansive bijection is an isometry, provided that it has a continuous inverse.
