Co-locating slowly increasing smooth functions in two different ways
This question is subsequent from my previous one.
I will write everything in detail for the sake of completeness.
Let $g_1$ and $g_2$ be smooth functions on $\mathbb{R}$, whose derivatives of all ...

How to prove that $f(x) := |x|^{\frac{\lambda - n}{p}}(1 - \psi(x))$ satisfies a specific property related to its limit at the origin
Disclaimer. I have asked this question a month ago on MSE (click here to access the original post) and even bountied it. I got an answer on MSE, but unfortunately I don't feel like it has enough ...

For any $p, q \in [1,\infty]$ and $s \in (0,\infty)$, can we find some $f \in L^q - W^{s,p}$?
Sobolev inequalities show us when we can embed a Sobolev space into another.
However, I wonder if these inclusions are always proper.
More specifically, let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a bounded ...

Is the Schwartz space a tame Frechet space?
I ran into the following definition of tame Frechet spaces and Nash-Moser therem.
It says that the space of smooth functions on a compact manifold is tame Frechet.
However, I wonder if
The Schwartz ...

Finding an element of Gelfand triple with a designated time derivative
Let $V$ be a real separable Banach space and $H$ be a real separable Hilbert space such that
\begin{equation}
V \subset H \subset V'
\end{equation}
where $V'$ is the dual of $V$ and the inclusions are ...

Is $L^2(I,\mathbb Z)$ homeomorphic to the Hilbert space?
I am somehow puzzled by the subset $G:=L^2(I,\mathbb Z)$ of $H:=L^2(I,\mathbb R)$ of all integer valued functions on $I=[0,1]$ (in fact I mentioned as an example in this old MO question).
Some simple ...

Hardy space inclusion in the right-half plane
I'm looking for an example of a function $u \in H_2$ such that $u \notin H_\infty$, where $H_p$ is the Hardy space on the right-half plane. Since this notation is perhaps not standard, here is a ...

Are there "pathological convex sets" over ultravalued fields of char 2?
In their book Topological Vector Spaces (2nd ed.) Lawrence Narici and Edward Beckenstein generalise convex sets for TVS over ultravalued field $K$ as $K$-convex sets. The definition goes as following:...

Examples of $C^{k,1}$ functions which are not $C^{k+1}$?
I'm currently reading this paper and the authors define the set $C^{k,1}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ as consisting of all functions $f:\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ having $k$ derivatives and for which:
$$

Known dense subset of Schwartz-like space and $C_c^{\infty}$?
After reading this question, which asked for some examples of commonly used (proper) dense subsets of $C_0^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ with the $L^p$-norm I wonder. What are some "well-known" ...

Is it possible that a convex cone and its closure both induce vector lattices?
Given a convex cone $P\subset X$ where $X$ is a $K$-vector space, $K=\mathbb{R}\text{ or }\mathbb{C}$ is a field.
Suppose that $P$ satisfies positive element stipulations.
(1) $X=P-P$.
(2) $P\cap-P=...

Example of Banach spaces with non-unique uniform structures
While it is known that compact Hausdorff spaces admit unique uniform structures, it is further shown by Johson and Lindenstrauss's result that Banach spaces are characterized by their uniform ...

system with solutions $\{x-a:0\leqslant a\leqslant z-1\}$ [closed]
What must be $F$ there where $0=F(1,x,0)=F(x-0,x,z)=F(x-1,x,z)=F(x-2,x,z)=F(x-3,x,z)=$ $\dots$ $=f(x-z-1,x,z)=0$?
Define $F$ in the domain where a continuous function exists that behaves so for $x\...

Examples of TVS with no non-trivial open convex subsets
I give here the classical example of the space $E = L^p([0,1])$ which has no open convex subsets apart from $\emptyset$ and $E$. Consequently, there is no non-trivial continuous linear form on $E$.

Measures which exhibit the "uncorrelated implies independent" property
Let $X$ be a topological linear space, and let $X^*$ be its dual space. Suppose that $X$ is complete and Hausdorff, and $X^*$ separates points. Let $Y$ be another such space, and let $f : X \to Y$ be ...

Gelfand representation and functional calculus applications beyond Functional Analysis
I think it is fair to say that the fields of Operator Algebras, Operator Theory, and Banach Algebras rely on Gelfand representation and functional calculus in a crucial way.
I am curious about ...

An example of a non-paracompact tvs (over the reals, say)

I'm aware of this question, but I don't care if my tvs is locally convex. In fact the wilder the better. The only criterion is that ...

description of functions of conditionally negative type on a group
Recall that a kernel conditionaly of negative type on a set $X$ is a map $\psi:X\times X\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ with the following properties:

2) $\psi(y,x)=\psi(x,y)$
3) for any ...

Can we distinguish the algebraic and continuous duals of a Banach space without choice (or HBT)?
The algebraic dual of a normed vector space is the space of all linear functionals to the ground field (either $\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$ for this question). The continuous dual is the subspace of ...
