Compact open operator between Banach spaces












0












$begingroup$


Let $X,Y$ be Banach space, $Y$ infinite dimensional. Show that no $T in mathcal{K}(X,Y)$ is open. By definition $T$ is open if and only if $exists r >0$ such that $B_Y(0,r) subset T(B_X(0,1))$ and I also know that the closed unit ball in $Y$ is not compact, since $Y$ is infinite dimensional.

          You have all of the right pieces, you just need to assemble them.



          Since the closed unit ball is not compact in $Y$, neither is $overline{B}_Y(0,r)$ (since $y mapsto ry$ is a homeomorphism for $r > 0$). Suppose $T$ is open and compact. Then
          $$B_Y(0,r) subseteq T(B_X(0,1)) subseteq overline{T(B_X(0,1))}$$
          where the last set is compact, since $T$ is a compact operator. This means that $overline{B}_Y(0,r)$ is a closed subset of a compact set and hence is compact which is a contradiction.
