In this chapter, existence and uniqueness of nearest points are considered in a general setting in which only properties from functional analysis such as the different kinds of compactness, convexity, and characterizations of best approximation in terms of linear functionals are used. In this framework the influence of uniform convexity, smoothness or non-smoothness of the underlying normed linear space is considered.
