Limit of sequence of non-negative, $C^0 \cap H^1$ functions that are zero at more and more points
I have a sequence $\{f_n\}$ of functions such that for each $n$, we got
$f_n \in H^1(\Omega) \cap C^0(\bar\Omega)$
$f_n \geq 0$
$\lVert f_n \rVert_{H^1(\Omega)} \leq C$ for a constant $C>0$ ...

Characterization of weakly compact operators
Let $X$ and $Y$ be normed spaces, I've read that if $T:X^*\to Y$ is a bounded linear operator such that $T^*(Y^*)\subset X$ then $T$ is weak*-to-weak continuous.
First question. Does $T^*(Y^*)\subset ...

Continuity and norm of operator on $l^2$
I need help with this:
Let $A$ be an operator on $l^2$, defined by
$$A(x)=y, \;x=(x_n)_{n \in N}, \; y = (\alpha_n x_n)_{n \in N}.$$ When is it continuous? Find its norm.
This is what I have done for ...

If $x$ is a càdlàg function and $f$ has compact support, how can we approximate $\sum_{s\in(a,\:b]}f(\Delta x(t))$?
Let $E_i$ be a normed $\mathbb R$-vector space and $x:[0,\infty)\to E_1$ be right-continuous. Assume $$x(t-):=\lim_{s\to t-}x(s)$$ exists for all $t\ge0$ and let $\Delta x(t):=x(t)-x(t-)$ for $t\ge0$.

Check my proof: Does $F_k(u_n)$ belong to $W_0^{1, p}(\Omega)$?
Let $\Omega$ be an open bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^N$ and let $(u_n)_n\subset W_0^{1, p}(\Omega)$ be a bounded sequence in $W_0^{1, p}(\Omega)$, $p>1$. Furthermore, fixed $k\in\mathbb{R}$, ...

Uniformly absolutely continuity: how to check it?
Let $(f_n)_n$ be a sequence. We say that it is a uniformly absolutely continuous sequence if given $\varepsilon>0$ there exists $\delta>0$ such that
$$\left|\int_{A} f_n\, \mathrm{d}\mu\right|&...

Map from $l^{\infty}$ to $l^{\infty}$ which includes Banach limit
Consider the following map:
$$ l^{\infty} \ni \{x_n\}_{n=1}^{\infty} \longmapsto \left\{x_n - \underset{j\rightarrow\infty}{\mathrm{Lim}}\ x_j\right\}_{n=1}^{\infty} \in l^{\infty},$$
where $\...

Why is it enough for $\lim\limits_{h \to 0} \vert f(x+h)-f(x)\vert = 0$ to show uniform continuity
I have seen an argument along the lines of:
if $f$ is a given function on $\mathbb R$ and, for any $x \in \mathbb R$, $\lim\limits_{ h \to 0}\vert f(x+h)-f(x)\vert=0$, then it immediately follows ...

convergence sequence and continuous functions
I have the following question: assume $C$ is a subset (we can assume it is convex and compact) of a Banach space $(X,\|\cdot\|)$, $f:C\longrightarrow C$ continuous and $x_{0}\in C$ a fixed point of $f$...

Proving one of the properties of a strongly continuous semigroup
Let $X$ be a Hilbert space and $A\in\mathcal{L}(X)$ and $\displaystyle T(t)=e^{At}=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{(At)^{n}}{n!}$.
I want to show that $T(t+\tau)=T(t)T(\tau)$.
So we have that $\...

Please verify my work about an equicontinuous sequence
Please check this work below. It is self-explanatory. I am unsure because I use a sequence composed with another sequence with the same index ($f_n^{-1}(u_n)$).
We have a sequence of functions $f_n:\...

Are these $f_n$ equicontinuous?
Let $f_n$ be a sequence of real-valued functions defined on $\mathbb{R}$ satisfying
$f_n \to f$ uniformly in the compact subsets of $\mathbb{R}$
$f_n^{-1}$ is bi-Lipschitz
$1 \leq (f_n^{-1})'(x) \leq ...

Maps sending weakly convergent sequences to weakly convergent sequences are continuous?
Well, the question is in the title. I understand that they are continuous in the weak topology, but can't see that it must hold for the norm topology.
Please help me.
