Norm of element from dual space












0












$begingroup$


I am reading the following book:
The Mathematical Tools for the Study of the Incompressible NS
And here is one of the propositions (Proposition II.2.1):




Let $E$ be a normed vector space. Then $forall x in E$ and $forall f in E^{'}$ (dual space) one can have:



$||x||_{E} = sup_{substack{fin E^{'}} \ f neq 0}frac{|<f,x>|_{E^{'},E}}{||f||}=mathrm{sup}_{substack{||f||_{E^{'}}}leq 1}|<f,x>|_{E^{'},E}$



in which $<f,x>_{E,E^{'}} = f(x)$ is the dulaity bracket.




My question is the second equal sign. I think it should be $||f||_{E^{'}} geq 1$?

    No, the definition is OK.

The statement is fine as it is written. Note that the map



$$Etomathbb [0,infty]qquad xmapstosup_{||f||geq 1}|langle f,xrangle|$$
takes $0$ to $0$ , and every nonzero $xin E$ to $infty$. Indeed, if $xneq 0$, then by the Hahn-Banach theorem, there is some nonzero $fin E'$ with $|f|=1$ and $f(x)=|x|$. Then for all $M>1$, we have
$$sup_{||f||geq 1}|langle f,xrangle|geqlangle Mf,xrangle=M|x|,$$
whence $sup_{||f||geq 1}|langle f,xrangle|=infty$.

    sorry if it is trivial: Let's say (I found this example online) $f(x)=frac{1}{2}(3x^2-1)$ in $[-1,1]$. Then $||f||_2=sqrt{2/5}<1$. And $|<f,x>|=|frac{1}{2}(3x^2-1)|$. Then I think the first equal sign give me $1/sqrt{2/5}$ and the second one just the number $1$. So we lower the upper bound. Sorry if it is stupid.
