Theorem of continuity for linear mappings

Introduction

The theorem of continuity for linear mappings provides equivalent conditions for stiffness, with topology-producing functionals norms, seminorms, gauge functionals.

  • Normed spaces - TCN The theorem of continuity for normed spaces is a special case of the more general case for topological vector spaces equivalent conditions are formulated for the stiffness of linear mappings over norms.
  • Topological vector spaces - TCT This theorem generalizes the continuity of linear mapping for topological vector spaces and gauge functionals.

Linear mappings - finite dimensional vector spaces

A linear mapping of a finite dimensional vector space over the field into a vector space over the field is always continuous.

Linear mappings - not continuous

Linear mapping of an infinite-dimensional -vector space into a vector space are also not continuous (see Examples).

Continuity for linear mapping - normed spaces

Let and normed spaces above the field and

a linear mapping, the following statements are equivalent:
  • (1) T is steady at every point
  • (2) 'T is steady in the zero vector
  • (3) There is a with for all with
  • (4) There is a with for all ,

Proof

The proof of equivalence is performed by a cycle of implications in the following way (1) (2) (3) (4) (1)

Corrollary of TCN for bilinear mappings

The theorem of continuity can be transfered to bilinear mappings and normed spaces: Let , and normed spaces above the field and

a bilinear mapping, the following statements are equivalent:
  • (1) T is steady at every point
  • (2) T is constantly in the zero vector
  • (3) There is a with for all with
  • (4) There is a with for all ,

Remark - Product space as vector space

The product space is naturally converted into a -vector space through the following operations :

With the product space also becomes a normed space.

Application of Corrolary

It is helpful for the Topologization lemma for algebras to prove the stiffness to a point. scalar multiplication and the multiplication on the algebra are in this context bilineare mappings. For example, and with are the submultiplicative standard on the algebra .

Task - Proof Corollary

Prove the above corollary using the ideas from the theorem of continuity for linear mappings on normed spaces. Notes:

  • Use the equivalence of

  • Use the linearity in each component to estimate .

Task - equivalence of norms - product space

In the above corollar, a standard is defined on . Show that is a äquivalente Norm on .

Operator standard

The condition (4) from the stiffness set for linear mappings leads to the introduction of the operator space. This makes the vector space of the steady linear functions a subset of all linear mappings itself a normedn space. (the index in stands for "continuous".

Alternative statement

Alternatively to (3), the statement can also be formulated as follows:

There is a with

This is equivalent to

Comments - Operatornorm

The operator standard provides a smallest upper barrier for the stretching of vectors from the one-piece ball in .

Linear mappings with finite definition range

For finite-dimensional vector spaces, this distinction is not necessary because each finite-dimensional linear mapping is continuous.

Task 1

Prove the set that linear mappings with a finite definition range are steady.

Evidence

Let and have a base of nominated vectors for (i.e. for all .

  • Use the statement (3) from the grade for linear mappings.
  • Select from the completed single ball .
  • Set as Linearkombination of the base vectors.
  • Estimate the standard .

Note: Stability and Standard Limitation

For continuous linear mapping of a normaledn space according to , the image of the completed single ball is limited to the standard (698-1047-174720246.
