Question: What do you mean the following concepts? and when to use?
Let ##\delta _{X}:[0,2]\longrightarrow \lbrack 0,1]## }be the
modulus of convexity of X, and defined by
##\delta _{X}(\varepsilon )=\inf \{1-\frac{1}{2}\left\Vert x-y\right\Vert
:\left\Vert x\right\Vert \leq 1, \left\Vert y\right\Vert \leq 1, \left\Vert x-y\right\Vert \geq \varepsilon \}.##
And let ##\rho _{X}:[0,\infty \lbrack \longrightarrow \lbrack 0,\infty \lbrack##
be the modulus of smoothness of X, and defined by
##\rho _{X}(t) =\sup \{\frac{1}{2}(\left\Vert x+y\right\Vert +\left\Vert
x-y\right\Vert )-1:\left\Vert x\right\Vert =1,\left\Vert
y\right\Vert =t\} ##

A sphere as topological manifold can be defined by gluing together the boundary of two disk. Basically one starts assigning each disk the subspace topology from ##\mathbb R^2## and then taking the quotient topology obtained by gluing their boundaries. Starting from the above definition of 2-sphere as topological manifold, shows that it is homeomorphic to the "embedded" sphere understood as subset of ##\mathbb R^3## in the subspace topology.
