Let be a Minkowski space with a unit ball and let be the Hausdorff metric induced by in the hyperspace of convex bodies (nonempty, compact, convex subsets of ℝ). R. Schneider [RSP] characterized pairs of elements of which can be joined by unique metric segments with respect to for the Euclidean unit ball Bⁿ. We extend Schneider’s theorem to the hyperspace over any two-dimensional Minkowski space.
