Is there a “Closure-of-Range Theorem” for Banach spaces?

The classic Closed Range theorem states that for a linear bounded operator $T:X\to Y$ between Banach spaces, and its transpose $T^*:Y^*\to X^*$, the four conditions: $T(X)$ is $s$-closed; $T(X)$ is …

Integral means vs infinite convex combinations

Let $(X,\mathcal A, \mu)$ be a probability space, $\mathbb E$ a Banach space, and $f:X\to\mathbb E$ a Bochner integrable function. Does there exist a sequence $(x_k)_{k\ge 1} $ in $X$, and a seq …

Complemented subspaces in a dual Banach space

Let $Y$ be a complemented subspace in a dual Banach space $X$. Is it true that $Y$ is itself isomorphic to a dual? This is the case of a $w^*$-closed subspace $Y$, but a complemented subspace of $X^ …

Is a closed connected semilattice of $C(I)$ path-connected?

Let $\Gamma $ be a sub-lattice of the Banach space $\big( B(S),\|\cdot\|_\infty\big)$ of all bounded real valued functions on the set $S$ (meaning that for any $f,g\in\Gamma $ both functions $f\wedge …

What are the applications of the Mazur-Ulam Theorem?

Every bijective isometry between normed spaces is affine. This well-known and beautiful statement, the Mazur-Ulam Theorem, was proved in 1932, but the proof has been simplified and polished in years, …

Between Tietze's and Dugundji's extension theorems

The celebrated Tietze extension theorem asserts that any continuous real-valued function defined on a closed subset of a normal space, can be extended to a continuous function on the whole space. Seen …

Intersection of complemented subspaces of a Banach space

The following seems a very basic question in the theory of complemented subspaces of Banach spaces, but I was not able to find a reference, so I wish to ask it here. Question. Let $X$ be a Banach …

Infinite convex combinations in a Banach space

Let's say that a subset $C$ of a Banach space $X$ is $\sigma$-convex if the following property holds: For any sequence $(x_k)_{k\ge0}$ in $C$, and for any sequence of non-negative real numbers $(\lam …

Banach spaces with few linear operators ?

Sometimes, dealing with the concrete and familiar Banach spaces of everyday life in maths, I happen nevertheless to ask myself about the generality of certain constructions. But, as I try to abstract …

Ergodic splitting in L_p

I have a curiosity on the Ergodic decomposition given by the von Neumann's theorem: $$L^2(X,\Sigma,\mu)=L^2(X,\Sigma_T,\mu)\oplus\overline{\{f-f\circ T\ :\ f\in L^2(X,\Sigma,\mu)\}},$$ that occurs f …
