What are the matrices preserving the $\ell^1$-norm?

As pointed out by YCor in the comments, the following theorem is true: Theorem 1 Let $p \in [1,\infty] \setminus \{2\}$. If a matrix $A \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$ is an isometry on $\mathbb{R}^n$ w …

Non-differentiable Lipschitz functions

In addition to Anthony Quas' answer, it might be worthwhile to mention the following general observations. A Banach space $X$ is said to have the Radon-Nikodym property if every Lipschitz mapping $f: …

interiors of positive cones in ordered Banach spaces

I'll use the notion "ordered Banach space" to denote a Banach space $E$ that is ordered by a closed (and convex) cone $E_+$. Generally speaken, having non-empty interior is not a common property of co …

The geometry of $\mathbb{R}^n$

The answer is no, in general. In order to construct a counterexample, let $X = Y = \mathbb{R}^n$ for any $n \ge 2$ and endow this space with the $p$-norm for your favourite $p \in [1,\infty] \setminu …

Does closedness of the image of unit sphere imply the closed range of the operator

The answer is no in general (but it's not difficult to check that the answer is yes for injective operators). Counterexample. Let $H$ be a Hilbert space and $T_0: H \to H$ a bounded linear operator wi …

Reference request: The resolvent is analytic in the resolvent set

Although András' comment already answers the question, I think it is worthwile to give a few more details explicitely here, in order to point out that the analyticity is in fact a consequence of the r …

An extremal property of points on the unit sphere of a 2-dimensional Banach space

The answer is no, in general. For a counterexample, consider the $\ell^p$-norm on $\mathbb{R}^2$ with $p=4$, and let $x = e_1 = (1,0)$. We first note that the vectors $e_2 = (0,1)$ and $-e_2$ do not …

Regarding an element being self adjoint

The golden rule for conjectures in operator theory: Every ad-hoc conjecture is most likely false for $2 \times 2$-matrices. :-) So here's a $2 \times 2$-counterexample for the question: Let $A = \math …

Is the set of weak*-continuous operators closed in the weak*-operator topology?

The answer is "no", in general. An easy counterexample can be found as follows: Let $X = \mathbb{F}$ and let $Y$ be a non-reflexive Banach space. Then $\mathcal{B}(Y^*,X^*)$ is simply the bi-dual $Y^ …

An example of non-invertible operator $F$ such that $P_nF$ is invertible on $\operatorname{I...

(In the following I assume that the word "invertible" in the question means "bijective".) Your assumptions do not imply that $F$ is bijective (however, they imply that $F$ is injective and has closed …

Dual fixed point

Part 1 of the answer. In terms of $T$, the property you are looking for is characterized by the mean ergodic theorem: Theorem. Let $E$ be a Banach space and let $T$ be a bounded linear operator on $E …

Commutation of linear maps and extreme points

The answer to the question is yes. Proof. Let $y$ be an extreme point of $T[S]$. Then $$ F :=T^{-1}(\{y\}) \cap S $$ is non-empty, compact and a face of $S$. By the Krein-Milman theorem, $F$ has an …

When a quasinilpotent is nilpotent?

I quasi-nilpotent operator $T \in B(X)$ is nilpotent if and only if $0$ is a pole of its resolvent $(\cdot - T)^{-1}$, which means that there exists a number $M \ge 0$ and an integer $n \ge 1$ such th …

holomorphy in infinite dimensions (holomorphic families of operators)

In addition to the information given by user bathalf15320, I think that a bit more information on the Banach space case could be useful: Here is a very general theorem about vector valued functions: T …

Are sequences in $\ell^1(\mathbb N_0)$ converging uniformly on convex weakly compact subsets...

The answer is yes. Proof. Assume to the contrary that a sequence $(x_n)$ in $\ell^1$ converges, say to $0$, uniformly on convex weakly compact subsets of $c_0$, but is not norm convergent and hence no …
