<David Milman> was a <mathematician> who helped develop the geometry of <Banach spaces> and the use of <extreme points> in <functional analysis>. He studied with <Mark Krein> in Odessa and later worked at Tel Aviv University. Their <Krein-Milman theorem> describes a compact <convex set> through the closed <convex hull> of its <extreme points>.https://temnyjles.ru/Milman/biogr.shtml[I. Gohberg, M. S. Livsic and I. Piatetski-Shapiro, David Milman (1912–1982), Integral Equations and Operator Theory 9 (1986), biography and mathematical contributions]{ref} He also proved that a <uniformly convex Banach space> is a <reflexive Banach space>. This connection makes a geometric property of the <norm> control a duality property of the entire space.
