<p>Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a vector space, $| \cdot |$ and $\| \cdot \|$ be two norms on which $\mathcal{X}$ is complete with respect to both. Can the two norms be not equivalent? Please just give me some hint, I want to be able to do it myself. Thx!</p>

<p>Take $\mathcal{X}=\ell_1(\mathbb{N})$. Then $\mathcal{X}$ is complete under $\ell_1$ and $\ell_\infty$, while the two norms are not equivalent.</p>

<p>Take a look at <a href="http://www.springerlink.com/content/k84641k661604hl2/" rel="nofollow">this article</a>:</p> <p>From the abstract: "[...] on an infinite dimensional Banach space one can always construct infinitely many mutually non-equivalent complete norms".</p>
