Oct 5, 2020 at 13:28 comment added Jochen Wengenroth I have overlooked the "bi" of biduals. Just for duals of Banach spaces a counterexample is the restriction $\ell_\infty' \to c_0'$ which does not have a weak$^*$-continuous right inverse.
Oct 5, 2020 at 10:15 comment added Jochen Wengenroth I doubt that there are always weak$^*$-continuous right inverses even for duals of Banach spaces. Assume that $X$ is a closed subspace of a Banach space $Y$ and assume that the quotient (restriction) map $q:Y'\to X'$ has a weak$^*$ continuous right inverse $r$. For every sequence $f_n$ of functionals on $X$ such that $f_n(x)\to 0$ pointwise on $X$ the sequence $r(f_n)$ would be a pointwise convergent sequence of extensions to $Y$ -- I don't believe that this is always possible and I am quite optimistic that the Banach spacers on MO can provide counterexamples.
Oct 5, 2020 at 6:41 comment added Jochen Wengenroth I think you mean right inverses which always exist for quotient mappings between Fréchet spaces. The trivial example of the $0$ mapping $T:\mathbb R \to \{0\}$ shows that in many cases there are no left inverses.
