    Study Notes

    Bounded Linear Functional

    • For a normed linear space, a bounded linear functional is a linear transformation that is also bounded, meaning there exists a constant C such that for all vectors x in the space:

    ||f(x)|| ≤ C || x ||

    • The Hahn-Banach Theorem states that every bounded linear functional defined on a subspace can be extended to a bounded linear functional on the entire space without increasing the norm.
    • This means that the bounded linear functional can be applied to any vector in the entire space, not just those within the subspace.
    • **The text proves the theorem with the construction of a new linear functional. This functional is defined on the entire space (M0) and is proven to be linear and bounded. The construction ensures that the functional and its norm are the same on the subspace M as the original functional f.
    • Claim: For any vector x in the subspace S, the norm of the linear transformation applied to x is always less than or equal to the norm of x multiplied by a constant.
    • If this claim is true, then the functional f is bounded.

    Conjugate Space/Dual Space

    • It is essentially the space consisting of all bounded linear functionals defined on the normed space. This space is also denoted as N*.
    • The text defines a functional f on M0 using the identity:

    f(m+αx0) = α Where m is an element of the subspace (M), α is a scalar, and x0 is a point outside of M.

    • The text then proceeds to prove that this functional is indeed linear and bounded.
    • It also proves the functional is a bounded linear functional by constructing a sequence that converges to the infimum of the difference between elements in M and x0.
    • This allows to establish that the norm of the functional f is less than or equal to 1/d (where d is the infimum).

    Hahn-Banach Theorem

    • This theorem states that if M is a closed linear subspace of the normed space N, and x0 is a point in N but not in M, then a functional f can be defined on N with the following properties:
    • f(M) = 0: The functional maps all elements of M to 0.
    • f(x0) ≠ 0: The functional maps x0 to a non-zero value.
    • The text demonstrates the theorem with two proofs:
      • One is based on the previously stated Hahn-Banach theorem, showcasing how it can be used to prove this particular case.
      • The other proof utilizes the concept of a quotient space (N/M) and continuous linear transformations, demonstrating how these concepts can be used to define the functional f.
    • **The proof constructs a functional f0 using a quotient space that maps all elements of the subspace to 0 and x0 to a non-zero value. Since the norm of g is 1, the norm of f0 is also shown to be 1, satisfying the theorem's prerequisites. **

    Extensions of Bounded Functionals

    • The text extends the Hahn-Banach Theorem to complex normed spaces by introducing the concept of a "real part" (g) and an "imaginary part" (h) for the functional.
    • It demonstrates that g and h are bounded linear functionals proving that f0 is also a bounded linear functional in N.
    • This extension is crucially important for the use of the Hahn-Banach theorem in complex analysis and quantum mechanics.
