Operator Norm of a Linear Transformation

PROBLEM For the linear transformation $T:\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^m$ equipped with the $l^1$-norm, namely, for $x\in\mathbb{R}^n$, $||x||=\sum_{j=1}^n |x_j|$ and similarly for ...

Why $ C_{00}$ is not complete with respect to $\sup$ norm?

If $$C_{00}:=\{ x=\{x_n\} \in \mathbb{R^\mathbb{N}}: x_n=0, \forall n>k \text{depending on }x\}$$Can you help me to give such a cauchy sequence in $x$ such that does not converge to $C_{00}$.

Example of two norms on same space, non-equivalent, with one dominating the other

I am looking for an example (with proof) of two norms defined on the same vector space, such that the norms on the two spaces are NOT equivalent, but such that one norm dominates the other...

Normed vector spaces and Banach spaces

Let $X$ be a Banach space with norm $||.||$ and let $S$ be a non-empty subset in $X$. Let $F_b(S,X)$ be the vector space of $F(S,X)$ of all functions $f:S \rightarrow X$ such that $\{||f(s)||:s \in ...

Convergence in normed spaces

I consider a sequence of elements $\{f_n\}_n$ in a normed space $X$ such as $\Vert f_n-f\Vert_X\to 0, n\to\infty$. Let $\{Q_n\}_n$ a complex sequence with $Q_n\to Q$ as $n\to\infty$. Does $Q_nf_n$ ...

a question on complete metrizable spaces

There is a claim: Let $Y$ be a complete metrizable space. If $Y$ is bounded, i.e., $d(Y) < \infty$, then $ \exists C(X,Y)$ is a complete metrizable space. Why here $Y$ need be bounded? ...

How does $\lim A_n$ being not invertible imply $\sup_n\|A_n^{-1}\|=\infty$?

Consider a sequence of operators $\{A_n\}_{n=1}^{\infty}\subset B(X,Y)$, where $X,Y$ are normed vector spaces and $B(X,Y)$ denotes the space of bounded linear operators from $X$ to $Y$. Assume that ...

Study the equivalence of these norms

I have two Hilbert spaces $H_1$ and $H_2$ and I consider a set of functions $f$ which decompose as $f=g+h$ with $g\in H_1$ and $h\in H_2$. I know that this decomposition is unique. So I define the ...

If $U$ is finite dimensional, then operator norm is finite

Let $M:U\to V$ be a linear map between normed vector space $U$ and $V$. We know $U$ is finite dimensional (but don't know about $V$). Define $\|M\| = \sup \{\|Mv\|\;:\;\|v\| = 1\}$. I want to show ...

weakly convergent sequence in $l^1$ [duplicate]

Prove that every weakly convergent sequence in $l^1$ converges. By Riesz on $L^p$ spaces, every linear functional $L\in (l^1 )^*$, is $L(x) = \langle u,x\rangle$ for some $u\in l^{\infty}$ ...

Determining whether $f(x) = \frac{\sin||x||}{e^{||x||}-1}$ for $x \neq 0$, $f(x) = 1$ for $x = 0$ is continuous at $0$

$f: \mathbb R^m \to \mathbb R$ is defined as $$f(x) = \begin{cases}\dfrac{\sin||x||}{e^{||x||}-1} & \text{if $x \ne 0$} \\ 1 & \text{if $x = 0$.}\end{cases}$$ Note that $x$ is a vector in ...
