Separable Lindenstrauss spaces whose duals lack the weak^* fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings

In this paper we study the $w^*$-fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings. First we show that the dual space $X^*$ lacks the $w^*$-fixed point property whenever $X$ contains an isometric copy of the space $c$. Then, the main result of our paper provides several characterizations of weak-star topologies that fail the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings in $\ell_1$ space. This result allows us to obtain a characterization of all separable Lindenstrauss spaces $X$ inducing the failure of $w^*$-fixed point property in $X^*$.
