Appendix A. Banach Spaces Br(X) = {Y E X Illy Appendix A. Banach Spaces In the appendices A, B and C we summarise the fundamental concepts and results we require from the theory of Banach spaces. For the proofs, we shall refer to well-known textbooks, and we give a limited selection at the end. We assume that the reader is familiar with the fundamental topological concepts (topology, neighborhood, basis of neighborhoods, open, contact point, etc.) and give full proofs only for a few results from the theory of Banach spaces which are of central significance for our applications. As a rule, we base our considerations on a real vector space. In order to be able to deal with topological concepts such as open sets, limit points, convergent sequences, Cauchy sequences, etc. in a vector space X, such as in the Euclidean space IRn , we will assume that a generalised "concept of length" or a "seminorm" p is given in X. A s eminorm is a function p : X -+ [0, 00 ) with the properties p(>.x) = 1>'lp(x) and p(x + y) :s:; p(x) + p(y) for all >. E IR and all x, y EX. If p( x) = 0 always implies x = 0, a seminorm is called a norm, which is written as p(x) = Ilxli. A vector space X together with a norm 11·11 defined for its elements is called a normed space. In a normed space (X, 11·11, we obtain a topology, and hence all topological concepts, by defining the following sets as open sets. A subset A c X is called open if, for every x E A, there exists an r = r x > 0 such that the open ball Br(x) = {y E X Illy - xII < r} with centre x and radius r belongs to A : Br(x) C A. In a normed space (X, II . II) a sequence (Xn)nElN converges to a point x E X if, and only if, for every t: > 0 there exists an n., such that IIx n - xII < t: holds for all n ~ n.,. A sequence (Xn)nElN is called a Cauchy sequence if, and only if, for every t: > 0 there exists an n., such that for all n, m ~ ne , IIx n -xmll < t: holds. A normed space in which every Cauchy sequence converges is said to be complete, or a Banach space. A Banach space is said to be separable if there exists a countable dense subset of it. Two norms 11·111 and 11·112 on a vector space X are said to be equivalent if there exist positive numbers c, c' such that IIxlh :s:; cllxll2 and IIxl12 :s:; c'lIxlll hold for all x EX. Equivalent norms generate the same topology. A subset M of a normed space (X, 11·11) is said to be bounded if the norm is bounded on M: 364 Appendix A. Banach Spaces sup{lIxlll x EM} < 00. Equivalent norms have identical bounded sets. Com­ plete normed spaces, which can be regarded as (infinite-dimensional) analo­ gous of the Euclidean spaces lRn, ~an be obtained in the following manner: let there be a scalar product (.,.) defined on a vector space X. This is a function (. , .) : X x X -+ lR with the following properties: (x, AlYl + A2Y2) = Al (x, Yl) + A2(x, Y2), (x, y) = (y, x) for all x, Yl, Y2, Y E X and all Aj E lR, (x, x) 2: 0, and (x, x) = 0 for all x EX only when x = O. A vector space X with a scalar product (. ,.) is called a pre-Hilbert space. In a pre-Hilbert space (X, (.,.)) one has a norm defined by x -+ IIxll = +~, called the norm induced by the scalar product. If the normed space (X, 11·11 = ..;r.1) is complete, then (X, (., .)) is called a Hilbert space. The Theorem of Jordan and von Neumann characterises those norms which are induced by a scalar product. The characteristic of these norms is the parallelogram law for all Xj EX. The Cauchy-Schwarz inequality l(x,y)1 :5l1xll'lIylI for all x,y E X holds in every pre-Hilbert space. The Projection Theorem is valid in every Hilbert space just as in any finite­ dimensional Euclidean space: let M be a subspace (which means a closed vector subspace) of a Hilbert space 1i. Then every vector x E 1i can be uniquely represented as x = U x + Vx where U x E M and Vx E M..L = {x E 1i I (x, y) = 0, Vy EM}, and one has I\vxl\ = c(x,M) = inf I\x - ull = Ilx - uxll· uEM We then write 1i = M ffi M..L and say that 1i is the direct orthogonal sum of M and M..L. If the orthogonal subspace M..L of M is finite dimensional, then we say that M has finite codimension. We now come to a few examples. Example A.I. The Euclidean Spaces lRn , n E IN. One can introduce the following norms in the vector space lRn : for an arbitrary number p E [1,00) and x E lR n one sets IIxli oo = sup IXil. l~i~n It follows from the inequalities IIxll oo :5 I\xl\p :5 nl/Pllxl\oo, x E lRn, that all these norms are equivalent. (lRn, 1\. lip) is a Banach space for 1 :5 p ~ +00. It is only for p = 2 that (lRn, 1\·lIp) is a Hilbert space with the scalar product Appendix A. Banach Spaces 365 n (x,y) = LXiYi. i=l Example A.2. The Sequence Spaces [P(JR), I ::s; p ::s; 00. Let lP(JR) denote the vector space of all sequences x = (Xn)nEIN of real numbers Xn for which I ::s; p < 00 and sup IXnl < 00 for p = +00 nEIN hold. Together with the norms II x li p = (~ IxnlP) liP, l::S;p<oo, Ilxll oo = sup Ixnl , nEIN respectively, the sequences spaces (lP(JR), II· lip) are complete normed spaces. In this case different values of p give rise to nonequivalent norms. Once again, only the sequence space z2(JR) is a Hilbert space. Its scalar product is (x, y) = 2::::='=1 xnYn' For I ::s; P ::s; +00 the dual exponent p' corresponding to p is defined by the equation lip' + lip = 1. For all x E IP(JR) and all Y E [P' (JR), one has x . Y = (XnYn)nElN E 11(JR) and 00 Ilx . ylh = L IXnYnl ::s; IlxllpllYllp' (Holder's Inequality). n=l Example A.3. Spaces of Continuous Functions. Let K denote a compact topo­ logical space (see also Appendix C) and C(K; JR) = C(K), be the set of all continuous functions f : K -t JR. One knows that C(K) is a real vector space in a natural way and IlfllK = sUPxEK If(x)1 defines a norm on C(K). C(K) is complete with respect to this norm, and is thus a Banach space but not a Hilbert space. Example A.4. Spaces of Differentiable Functions. For a compact interval f = [a, b], let Cl(f; IRn) be the space of all n-tuples of real functions continuously differentiable in (a, b), which together with their derivatives possess continuous extensions to the boundary points t = a and t = b. The real vector space Cl(f, IRn) is a Banach space with respect to the norm Ilqlh,l = sup{lq(t)l, 14(t)l} . tEl For q(t) = (ql (t), ... , qn(t)), qi E Cl(f, IR), let q(t) = (ql(t), ... ,qn(t)), qi(t) = ~i(t) 366 Appendix A. Banach Spaces and Iq(t)1 = (~lqi(t)12) 1/2 A norm equivalent to II . Ih.r is given by the following: Example A.5. The Lebesgue Spaces LP(lRn). For every real number p 2 1 let CP (lR n) = {J : lRn ---+ lR I I measurable, II I summable}. £P (lRn) is a real vector space and I ---+ 1I/11p where II/l1p = (in I/(x)IP dX) lip is a seminorm on CP(lRn). One has II/l1p = 0 {:} I = 0 almost everywhere. Denoting by N the subspace of all functions from CP(lRn) which vanish almost everywhere, the quotient space together with the norm induced by 1I·llp (which is again denoted by II· lip) is a Banach space (Theorem 01 Riesz-Fischer). Similarly one defines for p = +00, COO (lRn) = {J : lRn ---+ lR I I measurable and bounded almost everywhere} 11/1100 = inf{c Ie> 0, and apart from a null set I/(x)1 ~ c holds} and, further, Then Loo(lRn) is also a Banach space. Just as in the case of sequence spaces, Holder's inequality holds here also, which means that if I E LP(lRn), 9 E U ' (lRn) with p' being the dual exponent to p 21, then I· 9 E Ll(lRn), and one has Once again we obtain a Hilbert space only for p = 2. L2(lRn) is a Hilbert space with the scalar product (f,gh = { I(x)g(x)dx. lrn. n The norm thereby induced is 11·112. (In our notation we do not make explicit the distinction between the equivalence classes and the representatives from the equivalence classes.) Appendix A. Banach Spaces 367 Replacing the space IR n by a measurable set G ~ IR n one obtains the Banach spaces LP(G), 1 ::; p ::; +00, of Lebesgue. The Banach spaces LP(G) with 1 ::; p < 00 are separable. For real vector spaces Xl and X 2 , let L(XI' X 2 ) be the collection of all linear maps or operators from X I to X 2.

  • Duality for Outer $ L^ P \Mu (\Ell^ R) $ Spaces and Relation to Tent Spaces
    p r DUALITY FOR OUTER Lµpℓ q SPACES AND RELATION TO TENT SPACES MARCO FRACCAROLI p r Abstract. We prove that the outer Lµpℓ q spaces, introduced by Do and Thiele, are isomorphic to Banach spaces, and we show the expected duality properties between them for 1 ă p ď8, 1 ď r ă8 or p “ r P t1, 8u uniformly in the finite setting. In the case p “ 1, 1 ă r ď8, we exhibit a counterexample to uniformity. We show that in the upper half space setting these properties hold true in the full range 1 ď p,r ď8. These results are obtained via greedy p r decompositions of functions in Lµpℓ q. As a consequence, we establish the p p r equivalence between the classical tent spaces Tr and the outer Lµpℓ q spaces in the upper half space. Finally, we give a full classification of weak and strong type estimates for a class of embedding maps to the upper half space with a fractional scale factor for functions on Rd. 1. Introduction The Lp theory for outer measure spaces discussed in [13] generalizes the classical product, or iteration, of weighted Lp quasi-norms. Since we are mainly interested in positive objects, we assume every function to be nonnegative unless explicitly stated. We first focus on the finite setting. On the Cartesian product X of two finite sets equipped with strictly positive weights pY,µq, pZ,νq, we can define the classical product, or iterated, L8Lr,LpLr spaces for 0 ă p, r ă8 by the quasi-norms 1 r r kfkL8ppY,µq,LrpZ,νqq “ supp νpzqfpy,zq q yPY zÿPZ ´1 r 1 “ suppµpyq ωpy,zqfpy,zq q r , yPY zÿPZ p 1 r r p kfkLpppY,µq,LrpZ,νqq “ p µpyqp νpzqfpy,zq q q , arXiv:2001.05903v1 [math.CA] 16 Jan 2020 yÿPY zÿPZ where we denote by ω “ µ b ν the induced weight on X.

In this article we introduce tribonacci sequence spaces c0(T ) and c(T ) derived by the domain of a newly defined regular tribonacci matrix T: We give some topological properties, inclusion relations, obtain the Schauder basis and determine α−; β− and γ− duals of the spaces c0(T ) and c(T ): We characterize certain matrix classes (c0(T );Y ) and (c(T );Y ); where Y is any of the spaces c0; c or `1: Finally, using Hausdorff measure of non-compactness we characterize certain class of compact operators on the space c0(T ): 1.

  • Chapter 4 the Lebesgue Spaces
    Chapter 4 The Lebesgue Spaces In this chapter we study Lp-integrable functions as a function space. Knowledge on functional analysis required for our study is briefly reviewed in the first two sections. In Section 1 the notions of normed and inner product spaces and their properties such as completeness, separability, the Heine-Borel property and espe- cially the so-called projection property are discussed. Section 2 is concerned with bounded linear functionals and the dual space of a normed space. The Lp-space is introduced in Section 3, where its completeness and various density assertions by simple or continuous functions are covered. The dual space of the Lp-space is determined in Section 4 where the key notion of uniform convexity is introduced and established for the Lp-spaces. Finally, we study strong and weak conver- gence of Lp-sequences respectively in Sections 5 and 6. Both are important for applications. 4.1 Normed Spaces In this and the next section we review essential elements of functional analysis that are relevant to our study of the Lp-spaces. You may look up any book on functional analysis or my notes on this subject attached in this webpage. Let X be a vector space over R. A norm on X is a map from X ! [0; 1) satisfying the following three \axioms": For 8x; y; z 2 X, (i) kxk ≥ 0 and is equal to 0 if and only if x = 0; (ii) kαxk = jαj kxk, 8α 2 R; and (iii) kx + yk ≤ kxk + kyk. The pair (X; k·k) is called a normed vector space or normed space for short.

Several important theorems regarding the Lebesgue integral are then developed. Finally, we prove the completeness of the L2(µ) space and show that it is a metric space, and a Hilbert space. Contents 1. Measure Spaces 1 2. Lebesgue Integration 2 3. L2 Space 4 Acknowledgments 9 References 9 1. Measure Spaces Definition 1.1. Suppose X is a set. Then X is said to be a measure space if there exists a σ-ring M (that is, M is a nonempty family of subsets of X closed under countable unions and under complements)of subsets of X and a non-negative countably additive set function µ (called a measure) defined on M . If X 2 M, then X is said to be a measurable space. For example, let X = Rp, M the collection of Lebesgue-measurable subsets of Rp, and µ the Lebesgue measure. Another measure space can be found by taking X to be the set of all positive integers, M the collection of all subsets of X, and µ(E) the number of elements of E. We will be interested only in a special case of the measure, the Lebesgue measure. The Lebesgue measure allows us to extend the notions of length and volume to more complicated sets. Definition 1.2.

WeakLp spaces are function spaces which are closely related to Lp spaces. We do not know the exact origin of Weak Lp spaces, which is a apparently part of the folklore. The Book by Colin Benett and Robert Sharpley[4] contains a good presentation of Weak Lp but from the point of view of rearrangement function. In the present paper we study the Weak Lp space from the point of view of distribution function. This circumstance motivated us to undertake a preparation of the present paper containing a detailed exposition of these function spaces. In section 6 of the present paper we first prove a charac- terization of the boundedness of Mu in terms of u, and show that the set of multiplication operators on Weak Lp is a maximal abelian subalgebra of B WeakLp , the Banach algebra of all bounded linear operators on WeakLp.

Let (X, A, µ) be a measure space, and let K be one of the fields R or C. A. For a number p ∈ (1, ∞), we define the space Z Lp (X, A, µ) = f : X → : f measurable, and |f|p ∈ dµ < ∞ .

  • Some Types of Banach Spaces, Hermitian Operators, And
    SOME TYPES OF BANACHSPACES, HERMITIAN OPERATORS,AND BADE FUNCTIONAL^1) BY EARL BERKSON Introduction. In [6] and [ll] a general notion of hermitian operator has been developed for arbitrary complex Banach spaces (see §1 below). In terms of this notion, a family of operators on a Banach space is said to be hermitian-equivalent if the operators of this family can be made simultaneously hermitian by equivalent renorming of the underlying space [7]. Let X be a complex Banach space with norm || ||, and let F be a commutative hermitian-equivalent family of operators on X. A norm for X equivalent to || ||, and relative to which the operators of F are hermitian will be called an F-norm. Such families have been studied in [7], where it is shown that if X is a Hilbert space, then there is an F-norm which is also a Hilbert space norm. It is natural to seek other properties which, if enjoyed by X, can be preserved by choosing an F-norm appro- priately. Such an investigation is conducted in this paper. Specifically, we show in §§3 and 4 that if the Banach space X has uniformly Frechet differentiable norm (resp., is uniformly convex), then there is an F-norm which preserves uniform Frechet differentiability (resp., uniform con- vexity). Moreover, we show in §6 that if X = Lp(fi), <*>> p > 1, M a meas- ure, then there is an F-norm which preserves both uniform Frechet differ- entiability and uniform convexity. Our result for'the case where X is uniformly convex enables us to es- tablish in Theorem (5.4) a strong link between the notions of semi-inner- product (see §1) and Bade functional.
