Understanding bounded sets locally convex direct/inductive limit of topological vector spaces.
Let $\{H_i\}_{i\in I}$ be a directed system of Hilbert spaces over a poset $I$ such that $H_i\subset H_j$ whenever $i\leq j$. We consider the direct limit $H=\cup_{i\in I} H_i$ and equip it with the ...

Properties of self-concordant functions
Consider a self-concordant function $f(\cdot)$. This implies; $$ \|f'''(x)[u]\| \leq M \|u\|_{f''(x)}^{3/2} \; \text{for some M and} \; \forall u \in \mathbb{R}^{n}, \text{and} \; x \in \text{domain} \...

Does pointwise boundedness of continuous linear form in a subset of a normed space implies pointwise boundedness in the clousure? [duplicate]
Let $V$ be a normed vector space, $D\subseteq V$ and $\{f_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ a sequence in $V^*$ such that for all $x\in D$, the sequence $\{f_n(x)\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ is bounded. Is it true that ...

For $f\in E^{\ast}$ If $\ker \left(f \right) \leq E$ is closed then $f$ is bounded. [duplicate]
I am studying functional analysis using "Function Analysis An Introduction" by Yuli Eidelman, Vitali Milman, Antonis Tsolomitis. In page $44$ the following exercise (number $24$) is left for ...

Compactness of unit ball and sphere
Let $X$ be a normed vector space, we have $\{x \in X, ||x|| \le 1\}$ is compact iff $\{x \in X, ||x|| = 1\}$ is compact One direction is clear (a closed subset of a compact set is compact), how to ...

If $f$ is a holomorphic function to a Banach space whose image is contained in a dense subspace, is the image of $f'$ also contained in this subspace?
Let $f$ be a holomorphic function from an open subset of $\mathbb{C}$ to a complex Banach space. In this answer, it is proved that the Cauchy integral formula still holds, and it follows that $f$ is ...

There are two definition of resolvent set
Recently, when I studied the spectrum of an operator, I came across two definitions of the resolvent set. In Kreyszig’s book, the definition is as follows: Let $X \ne {0}$ be a complex normed space ...

Suppose $D^3f$ exists, prove $D_AD_AD_A f$ exists.
Let $A,B,C$ be (banach) normed spaces. On $A\times B$ we consider the supremum norm. Let $X\subseteq A \times B$ be an open set. Let $f: X \rightarrow C$ and suppose its third differential map exists,...

Intuition connecting the definition of norm of a number with its p-adic expansion
Let $\alpha\in K$ where $K$ is an algebraic extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ and $n:= [K : \mathbb{Q}_p]$. Let $f(x) : = x^n + a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+...a_0$ be a minimum polynomial of $\alpha$ over $\mathbb{Q}_p$....

A characterization of norms coming from inner products
Let $X$ be a normed vector space and fix two distinct vectors $u$ and $v$ in $X$. Consider the set: $E(u,v) = \{z\in X | |z-u| = |z-v|\}$. An interesting fact I observed is that if the norm that ...

Are all norms of complex fields spherical?
Any complex vector space $\mathbb{C}^{n}$ is isomorphic to a real vector space $\mathbb{R}^{2 n}$. I was wondering, however, if converting complex vector spaces to real ones offers more freedom with ...
