Abstract
In [1] Tukey proves that if A and B are closed convex subsets in a Banach space, so that A is bounded and A-B is dense in the open unit ball U then A-B⊃U. We shall give here a more general result than the former one which contains the Banach's isomorphism theorem as particular case. Other results over convex sets are also given.
