  2. Hahn–Banach theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HahnBanach_theorem

    The theorem is named for the mathematicians Hans Hahn and Stefan Banach, who proved it independently in the late 1920s.The special case of the theorem for the space [,] of continuous functions on an interval was proved earlier (in 1912) by Eduard Helly, [1] and a more general extension theorem, the M. Riesz extension theorem, from which the HahnBanach theorem can be derived, was proved in ...

    Theorem [13] (Kalton) — Every complete metrizable TVS with the Hahn-Banach extension property is locally convex. If a vector space X {\displaystyle X} has uncountable dimension and if we endow it with the finest vector topology then this is a TVS with the HBEP that is neither locally convex or metrizable.

  5. Vector-valued Hahn–Banach theorems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector-valued_HahnBanach...

    If Y is an injective Banach space, then for every Banach space X, every continuous linear operator from a vector subspace of X into Y has a continuous linear extension to all of X. [1] In 1953, Alexander Grothendieck showed that any Banach space with the extension property is either finite-dimensional or else not separable. [1]

  6. Functional analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_analysis

    The HahnBanach theorem is a central tool in functional analysis. It allows the extension of bounded linear functionals defined on a subspace of some vector space to the whole space, and it also shows that there are "enough" continuous linear functionals defined on every normed vector space to make the study of the dual space "interesting".

  7. Amenable group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amenable_group

    By the HahnBanach theorem the latter admits a norm-one linear extension on ℓ ∞ (Z), which is by construction a shift-invariant finitely additive probability measure on Z. If every conjugacy class in a locally compact group has compact closure, then the group is amenable.

  8. Uniform boundedness principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_boundedness_principle

    Together with the HahnBanach theorem and the open mapping theorem, it is considered one of the cornerstones of the field. In its basic form, it asserts that for a family of continuous linear operators (and thus bounded operators ) whose domain is a Banach space , pointwise boundedness is equivalent to uniform boundedness in operator norm .

  9. Linear form - Wikipedia

    HahnBanach dominated extension theorem [18] (Rudin 1991, Th. 3.2) — If : is a sublinear function, and : is a linear functional on a linear subspace which is dominated by p on M, then there exists a linear extension : of f to the whole space X that is dominated by p, i.e., there exists a linear functional F such that = for all , and | | for ...
