On the structure of the set of solutions of nonlinear equations
1971
Let T be a mapping from a subset of a Banach space X into a Banach space Y. The present paper investigates the nature of the set of solutions of the equation T(x) = y for a given y E Y, i.e. when T-l(y) # 0 ? What are the topological properties of T-l(y)? A prototype for an answer to these questions is given by Peano existence theorem on the connectedness of the set of solutions of an ordinary differential equation in the real case. In its general setting, this problem was first attacked by Aronszajn [l] and Stampacchia [l 11; recently, by Browder-Gupta [5], Vidossich [12] and, above all, Browder [3, Sec. 51 who gives several interesting results in an excellent treatment. Customary, the str…
Banach spaces where convex combinations of relatively weakly open subsets of the unit ball are relatively weakly open
2018
We introduce and study Banach spaces which have property CWO, i.e., every finite convex combination of relatively weakly open subsets of their unit ball is open in the relative weak topology of the unit ball. Stability results of such spaces are established, and we introduce and discuss a geometric condition---property (co)---on a Banach space. Property (co) essentially says that the operation of taking convex combinations of elements of the unit ball is, in a sense, an open map. We show that if a finite dimensional Banach space $X$ has property (co), then for any scattered locally compact Hausdorff space $K$, the space $C_0(K,X)$ of continuous $X$-valued functions vanishing at infinity has…
