Convergence and sequential compactness for nonlinear operators

I have a family of operators $T_n\colon X \to Y$ where $X,Y$ are Hilbert spaces. These operators are nonlinear. What kind of notions of convergence does one have for such operators? I'm specifically ...

A question on unit norm elements of $\ell^2 \setminus \bigcup_{0<p<2 }\ell^p$

Let $A\subset \ell^2$ consist of all $x\in \ell^2$ with $|x|_2=1$ which does not belong to any $\ell^p$ for all $0<p<2$. Note that $A$ is non-empty with a Baire category argument. I ...

Does weak $L^2$ approximation implies $L^2$ approximation under a condition similar to convexity?

(Cross posted from Math StackExchange: Does weak $L^2$ approximation implies $L^2$ approximation under a condition similar to convexity?) Assume $(\Omega, \mu)$ is a probability space. Consider a ...

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 ...

Variation of concept of a Lusin space

Citing from Wikipedia, A Hausdorff topological space is a Lusin space if some stronger topology makes it into a Polish space. Is there a (previously studied) analogous concept of a Hausdorff (...

Maximally fine topologies on $B(H)$ making the unit ball compact

Let $H$ be a Hilbert space, and $B(H)$ its algebra of bounded operators. One of the reasons the Ultraweak topology is (in a way) more useful than the weak operator topology is that the Ultraweak ...

Density of Lipschitz functions in Bochner space with bounded support

Let $X$ and $Y$ be separable and reflexive Banach spaces with Schauder bases. Let $\mu$ be a non-zero finite Borel measure on $X$ and let $L^p(X,Y;\mu)$ denote the (Boehner) space of strongly p-...

A map into a Hilbert space with prescribed orthogonality

Let $X$ be a locally compact separable metric space, and let $L:X\times X\to \mathbb{C}$ be continuous and such that $L(x,x)=1$ and $L(y,x)=\overline{L(x,y)}$, for every $x,y$. Does there always ...

Are the following subsets of a Hilbert space always homeomorphic?

Let $F$ be a infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space, with inner product $\langle\cdot\;| \;\cdot\rangle$, the norm $\|\cdot\|$, the 1-sphere $S(0,1)=\{x\in F;\;\|x\|=1\}$ and let $\mathcal{B}(F)$ ...

Sufficient criteria for $X \subset \mathcal{H}$ to be a Lipschitz (or unif. cont.) retract of $\mathcal{H}$

I am interested in sufficient criteria which ensure that a subset $X$ of a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is a Lipschitz (or at least uniformly continuous) retract of $\mathcal{H}$. Under which ...

About the projection on the unit sphere

Let $H$ be a Hilbert Space and let $A\subset H$ be a connected set such that any two elements of $A$ are linearly independent and also $A^{\bot}=\left\{0\right\}$ (this seems to be immaterial). Is ...

Weak topology on subsets of a normed space

I have few questions about the subsets of a normed space $X$ endowed with the weak topology. Let $E$ be such subset. When is the norm a continuous function on $E$? When is the metric induced by the ...

Weak topology on a pre-Hilbert Space

Since there was essentially no answers on my previous question, I will ask a partial case of it, which is very easy to state. Let $\left(X,\left<\cdot,\cdot\right>\right)$ be an inner product (...

A question about open subsets of Hilbert space whose complements are compact sets

Let $H$ be an infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space. Let $C$ be the intersection of a denumerably infinite sequence of sets, each of which is the complement of a compact subset of $H$. In other ...

Recontruction of the weak topolgy from the scalar product on a subset of a Hilbert Space

Let $M$ be a set a let $K:M\times M\to\mathbb{C}$ be a positive definite kernel. By a version of Moore-Aronszajn Theorem, there is a unique (up to the unitary euivalence) Hilbert Space $X$, and a map $...

compact-open topology on $B(H)$

In topology, it is common to use the compact-open topology on the set of continuous maps between two given topological spaces. Let now $H$ be a Hilbert space and $B(H)$ the set of continuous linear ...

Hilbert space having all norms (and seminorms) continous.

Suppose I have a Hilbert space $H$ such that every seminorm on $H$ is continuous with respect to the inner-product induced norm. Is $H$ necessarily finite-dimensional? If not, is there an easy ...

Hilbert space automorphisms realized as induced by transformations of some base-spaces

Following question may be soft. Fix abstract hilbert space H and consider any automorphism A in banach-spaces sence (i.e. no conditions on metric). Call A is realizable if exist measure space $(X,\mu)$...
