Proposition 11.14. Let \( N \subset {E}^{ \star } \) be a closed subspace. Then \( \dim N < \infty \) if and only if \( \operatorname{codim}{N}^{ \bot } < \infty \), and in that case \( \dim N = \operatorname{codim}{N}^{ \bot } \) . It is also true that \( \dim {N}^{ \bot } \leq \operatorname{codim}N \), but it may hap...
Proof. Recall that\n\n\[ \n{N}^{ \bot } = \{ x \in E;\langle f, x\rangle = 0\;\forall f \in N\} .\n\]\n\nClearly \( \bar{N} \subset {N}^{ \bot \bot } \) ; but it may happen that \( \bar{N} \neq {N}^{ \bot \bot } \) (see Remark 6 in Chapter 1).

Proposition 11.17. The space \( {\ell }^{\infty } \) is not separable.
Proof. Assume that \( A \subset {\ell }^{\infty } \) is countable. We will check that \( A \) cannot be dense in \( {\ell }^{\infty } \) . Write \( A = \left( {a}^{k}\right) \), where each \( {a}^{k} \in {\ell }^{\infty } \), so that \( {a}^{k} = \left( {{a}_{1}^{k},{a}_{2}^{k},\ldots }\right) \) . For each integer \( ...

Proof. This is an easy adaptation of the proof of Proposition 11.18 (with \( p = \infty \) and \( {p}^{\prime } = 1 \) ); the last part of the proof holds since \( D \) is dense in \( {c}_{0} \) (but not in \( {\ell }^{\infty } \) ).

Proposition 11.21. The spaces \( {\ell }^{1},{\ell }^{\infty }, c \), and \( {c}_{0} \) are not reflexive.
Proof. From Propositions 11.19 and 11.18 we know that \( {\left( {c}_{0}\right) }^{ \star } \) is \( {\ell }^{1} \) and \( {\left( {\ell }^{1}\right) }^{ \star } \) is \( {\ell }^{\infty } \) .

Proposition 11.25. Assume that \( \varphi : E \rightarrow ( - \infty , + \infty \rbrack \) is convex, l.s.c., and \( \varphi ≢ \) \( + \infty \) . Then \( {\varphi }^{\star \star } = \varphi \) .
Proof. There are two methods. Either one can apply Theorem 1.11 to \( \widetilde{\varphi } = \varphi \) viewed on \( {E}_{\mathbb{R}} \), in conjunction with Proposition 11.22. Or one can repeat the proof of Theorem 1.11; when Hahn-Banach is used, one can separate the convex sets \( A \) and \( B \) using a real hyperp...

Proposition 11.26. Let \( K \subset H \) be a nonempty closed convex set. Then for every \( f \in H \) there exists a unique element \( u \in K \) such that\n\n\[ \left| {f - u}\right| = \mathop{\min }\limits_{{v \in K}}\left| {f - v}\right| = \operatorname{dist}\left( {f, K}\right) .

Proof. The main novelty is that \( \sigma \left( T\right) \) is nonempty. The proof relies on the theory of analytic functions on \( \mathbb{C} \) (more precisely Liouville’s theorem) and we will not present it here. The interested reader may consult A. Taylor-D. Lay [1], W. Rudin [2], or A. Knaap [2].

1. \( {B}_{{E}^{ \star }} \) is compact and metrizable for the topology \( \sigma \left( {{E}^{ \star }, E}\right) \) (see Theorem 3.28). It follows, by a standard result in point-set topology, that there exists a subset in \( {B}_{{E}^{ \star }} \) that is countable and dense for \( \sigma \left( {{E}^{ \star }, E}\ri...
Since \( B \) is compact for \( \sigma \left( {E,{E}^{ \star }}\right) \), it follows (by Corollary 2.4) that \( B \) is bounded. Thus \( B \) is a compact (metric) space for the topology \( \mathcal{T} \) and, moreover, the topologies \( \sigma \left( {E,{E}^{ \star }}\right) \) and \( \mathcal{T} \) coincide on \( B ...
