Why can I choose elements of $X$ (and $h \in L^2(0,T)$) in this way? (Dual spaces, norms, Bochner spaces)

This is from the book Vector Measures by Diestel and Uhl, page 98: Let $X$ be a Hilbert space. Let $\epsilon > 0$ and suppose first that $g = \sum_{i=1}^\infty x_i^* \chi_{E_i}$ where $x_i^* ...

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 ...

Norm of a function, Smoothness Penalization

I am seeking for some intuition why norm (for any reasonable norm on functions) of a function is smaller if the function is smoother.

Dual space norms and equivalence

Suppose $S(r)$ is set parametrised by $r \in [0,T]$. Let $\phi_t^s : H^1(S(t)) \to H^1(S(s))$ is a linear homeomorphism. Suppose $\lVert \cdot \rVert_{H^1(S(t))}$ and $\lVert \phi_t^s(\cdot) ...

Hilbert dual space (inequality and reflexivity)

Let $V \subset H$ where $H$ is Hilbert space. Let $T:H^* \to V^*$ be the canonical map that restricts the domain of a functional in $H$ so that it's a functional in $V$. How do I show that $$\lVert ...

Maximal Value of Integral

Calculate the maximal value of $\int_{-1}^1g(x)x^3 \, \mathrm{d}x$, where $g$ is subject to the conditions $\int_{-1}^1g(x)\, \mathrm{d}x = 0;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;$ $\int_{-1}^1g(x)x^2\, \mathrm{d}x = ...

Finding a vector in a n.l.s.

Let $X$ be a normed linear space and $Y$ a closed proper subspace. Prove that for all $\varepsilon > 0$, there is an $x \in X$ with $\|x\| = 1$ and such that $\|x − y\| ≥ 1 − \varepsilon$ for all ...

Intersection between orthogonal complement of a subspace and a set

Consider the normed vector space $E=\mathbb{R}^n$. Define $ P=\{x \in \mathbb{R}^n: x_i \geq 0, \forall i \}$. Let $M$ be a subspace such that $M \cap P = \{0\}$. I want to see that $M^\perp \cap ...
