Banach–Steinhaus Theorem
In mathematics, the uniform boundedness principle or Banach–Steinhaus theorem is one of the fundamental results in functional analysis. Together with the Hahn–Banach 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. The theorem was first published in 1927 by Stefan Banach and Hugo Steinhaus, but it was also proven independently by Hans Hahn. Theorem The first inequality (that is, \sup_ \, T(x)\, rather than \infty, \infty/math>) then closed unit ball can be replaced with the unit sphere \sup_ \, T\, _ = \sup_ \, T(x)\, _Y. The completeness of the Banach space X enables the following short proof, using the Baire category theorem. There are also simple proofs not using the Baire theorem . Corollaries The ...

Mathematics
Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, Mathematical theory, theories and theorems that are developed and Mathematical proof, proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study of shapes and spaces that contain them), Mathematical analysis, analysis (the study of continuous changes), and set theory (presently used as a foundation for all mathematics). Mathematics involves the description and manipulation of mathematical object, abstract objects that consist of either abstraction (mathematics), abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicspurely abstract entities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. Mathematics uses pure reason to proof (mathematics), prove properties of objects, a ''proof'' consisting of a succession of applications of in ...

Interior (topology)
In mathematics, specifically in topology, the interior of a subset of a topological space is the union of all subsets of that are open in . A point that is in the interior of is an interior point of . The interior of is the complement of the closure of the complement of . In this sense interior and closure are dual notions. The exterior of a set is the complement of the closure of ; it consists of the points that are in neither the set nor its boundary. The interior, boundary, and exterior of a subset together partition the whole space into three blocks (or fewer when one or more of these is empty). The interior and exterior of a closed curve are a slightly different concept; see the Jordan curve theorem. Definitions Interior point If S is a subset of a Euclidean space, then x is an interior point of S if there exists an open ball centered at x which is completely contained in S. (This is illustrated in the introductory section to this article.) This definitio ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Locally Convex Topological Vector Space
In functional analysis and related areas of mathematics, locally convex topological vector spaces (LCTVS) or locally convex spaces are examples of topological vector spaces (TVS) that generalize normed spaces. They can be defined as topological vector spaces whose topology is generated by translations of balanced, absorbent, convex sets. Alternatively they can be defined as a vector space with a family of seminorms, and a topology can be defined in terms of that family. Although in general such spaces are not necessarily normable, the existence of a convex local base for the zero vector is strong enough for the Hahn–Banach theorem to hold, yielding a sufficiently rich theory of continuous linear functionals. Fréchet spaces are locally convex topological vector spaces that are completely metrizable (with a choice of complete metric). They are generalizations of Banach spaces, which are complete vector spaces with respect to a metric generated by a norm. History Metrizable ...

Seminorm
In mathematics, particularly in functional analysis, a seminorm is like a Norm (mathematics), norm but need not be positive definite. Seminorms are intimately connected with convex sets: every seminorm is the Minkowski functional of some Absorbing set, absorbing Absolutely convex set, disk and, conversely, the Minkowski functional of any such set is a seminorm. A topological vector space is locally convex if and only if its topology is induced by a family of seminorms. Definition Let X be a vector space over either the real numbers \R or the Complex number, complex numbers \Complex. A real-valued function p : X \to \R is called a if it satisfies the following two conditions: # Subadditive function, Subadditivity/Triangle inequality: p(x + y) \leq p(x) + p(y) for all x, y \in X. # Homogeneous function, Absolute homogeneity: p(s x) =, s, p(x) for all x \in X and all scalars s. These two conditions imply that p(0) = 0If z \in X denotes the zero vector in X while 0 denote the zer ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Bounded Set (topological Vector Space)
In functional analysis and related areas of mathematics, a set in a topological vector space is called bounded or von Neumann bounded, if every neighborhood of the zero vector can be ''inflated'' to include the set. A set that is not bounded is called unbounded. Bounded sets are a natural way to define locally convex polar topologies on the vector spaces in a dual pair, as the polar set of a bounded set is an absolutely convex and absorbing set. The concept was first introduced by John von Neumann and Andrey Kolmogorov in 1935. Definition Suppose X is a topological vector space (TVS) over a topological field \mathbb. A subset B of X is called or just in X if any of the following equivalent conditions are satisfied: : For every neighborhood V of the origin there exists a real r > 0 such that B \subseteq s VFor any set A and scalar s, the notation s A denotes the set s A := \. for all scalars s satisfying , s, \geq r. * This was the definition introduced by John ...

Topological Vector Space
In mathematics, a topological vector space (also called a linear topological space and commonly abbreviated TVS or t.v.s.) is one of the basic structures investigated in functional analysis. A topological vector space is a vector space that is also a topological space with the property that the vector space operations (vector addition and scalar multiplication) are also continuous functions. Such a topology is called a and every topological vector space has a uniform topological structure, allowing a notion of uniform convergence and completeness. Some authors also require that the space is a Hausdorff space (although this article does not). One of the most widely studied categories of TVSs are locally convex topological vector spaces. This article focuses on TVSs that are not necessarily locally convex. Other well-known examples of TVSs include Banach spaces, Hilbert spaces and Sobolev spaces. Many topological vector spaces are spaces of functions, or linear operators ac ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Carleson's Theorem
Carleson's theorem is a fundamental result in mathematical analysis establishing the ( Lebesgue) pointwise almost everywhere convergence of Fourier series of functions, proved by . The name is also often used to refer to the extension of the result by to functions for (also known as the ''Carleson–Hunt theorem'') and the analogous results for pointwise almost everywhere convergence of Fourier integrals, which can be shown to be equivalent by transference methods. Statement of the theorem The result, as extended by Hunt, can be formally stated as follows: The analogous result for Fourier integrals is: History A fundamental question about Fourier series, asked by Fourier himself at the beginning of the 19th century, is whether the Fourier series of a continuous function converges pointwise to the function. By strengthening the continuity assumption slightly one can easily show that the Fourier series converges everywhere. For example, if a function has bounde ...

Dirichlet Kernel
In mathematical analysis, the Dirichlet kernel, named after the German mathematician Peter Gustav Lejeune Dirichlet, is the collection of periodic functions defined as D_n(x)= \sum_^n e^ = \left(1+2\sum_^n\cos(kx)\right)=\frac, where is any nonnegative integer.

Fourier Series
A Fourier series () is an Series expansion, expansion of a periodic function into a sum of trigonometric functions. The Fourier series is an example of a trigonometric series. By expressing a function as a sum of sines and cosines, many problems involving the function become easier to analyze because trigonometric functions are well understood. For example, Fourier series were first used by Joseph Fourier to find solutions to the heat equation. This application is possible because the derivatives of trigonometric functions fall into simple patterns. Fourier series cannot be used to approximate arbitrary functions, because most functions have infinitely many terms in their Fourier series, and the series do not always Convergent series, converge. Well-behaved functions, for example Smoothness, smooth functions, have Fourier series that converge to the original function. The coefficients of the Fourier series are determined by integrals of the function multiplied by trigonometric func ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Uniform Norm
In mathematical analysis, the uniform norm (or ) assigns, to real- or complex-valued bounded functions defined on a set , the non-negative number :\, f\, _\infty = \, f\, _ = \sup\left\. This norm is also called the , the , the , or, when the supremum is in fact the maximum, the . The name "uniform norm" derives from the fact that a sequence of functions converges to under the metric derived from the uniform norm if and only if converges to uniformly. If is a continuous function on a closed and bounded interval, or more generally a compact set, then it is bounded and the supremum in the above definition is attained by the Weierstrass extreme value theorem, so we can replace the supremum by the maximum. In this case, the norm is also called the . In particular, if is some vector such that x = \left(x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n\right) in finite dimensional coordinate space, it takes the form: :\, x\, _\infty := \max \left(\left, x_1\ , \ldots , \left, x_n\\right).

Circle Group
In mathematics, the circle group, denoted by \mathbb T or , is the multiplicative group of all complex numbers with absolute value 1, that is, the unit circle in the complex plane or simply the unit complex numbers \mathbb T = \. The circle group forms a subgroup of , the multiplicative group of all nonzero complex numbers. Since \C^\times is abelian, it follows that \mathbb T is as well. A unit complex number in the circle group represents a rotation of the complex plane about the origin and can be parametrized by the angle measure : \theta \mapsto z = e^ = \cos\theta + i\sin\theta. This is the exponential map for the circle group. The circle group plays a central role in Pontryagin duality and in the theory of Lie groups. The notation \mathbb T for the circle group stems from the fact that, with the standard topology (see below), the circle group is a 1-torus. More generally, \mathbb T^n (the direct product of \mathbb T with itself n times) is geometrically an n-toru ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
