"Prove that $x_n\xrightarrow{w} x$ implies lim inf$||x_n|| \geq ||x||$."
I'm trying to understand weak convergence better through this exercise.
Here, $\xrightarrow{w}$ means weakly convergent, i.e. $\forall f \in X'$ (dual space of bounded functionals), $f(x_n) \to f(x)$.
There is a proof that shows $||x_n||$ is bounded. In the proof, $g_n \in X''$ (double dual of $X$) is defined as follows: $g_n(f):=f(x_n)$. The lemma $||g_n||=||x_n||$ is used to complete the proof which comes from a corollary of the Hahn-Banach Theorem. I was trying to use these two facts in the proof of the above by substituting $||x_n||$ with $||g_n||$ but couldn't make much progress.
Any help is appreciated.
