    1 00:00:00,330 –> 00:00:02,269 Hello and welcome back to

    2 00:00:02,279 –> 00:00:03,569 functional analysis

    3 00:00:04,239 –> 00:00:05,719 and many, many thanks to

    4 00:00:05,730 –> 00:00:07,179 all my great supporters on

    5 00:00:07,190 –> 00:00:08,390 Steady and paypal.

    6 00:00:08,539 –> 00:00:10,029 You really give me the motivation

    7 00:00:10,039 –> 00:00:11,829 to put all this work in making

    8 00:00:11,840 –> 00:00:12,810 these videos.

    9 00:00:12,819 –> 00:00:14,770 So thanks a lot in

    10 00:00:14,779 –> 00:00:15,800 functional analysis.

    11 00:00:15,810 –> 00:00:17,159 We’ve already reached part

    12 00:00:17,170 –> 00:00:17,629 12.

    13 00:00:17,719 –> 00:00:19,329 And today we will talk about

    14 00:00:19,340 –> 00:00:20,479 continuity

    15 00:00:21,500 –> 00:00:22,549 to be more precise.

    16 00:00:22,559 –> 00:00:24,309 We will talk about continuity

    17 00:00:24,319 –> 00:00:25,709 for metric spaces.

    18 00:00:26,510 –> 00:00:28,069 For this, we just need two

    19 00:00:28,079 –> 00:00:29,209 metric spaces.

    20 00:00:29,219 –> 00:00:30,809 So one set X with a

    21 00:00:30,819 –> 00:00:32,790 metric d_X and a set

    22 00:00:32,799 –> 00:00:34,250 Y with a metric d_Y.

    23 00:00:35,340 –> 00:00:37,080 And now we consider a map

    24 00:00:37,090 –> 00:00:38,840 from X to Y.

    25 00:00:39,880 –> 00:00:41,779 And now such a map is called

    26 00:00:41,790 –> 00:00:42,810 continuous.

    27 00:00:43,630 –> 00:00:45,389 If the preimages of

    28 00:00:45,400 –> 00:00:47,299 open sets are always

    29 00:00:47,310 –> 00:00:48,819 open more

    30 00:00:48,830 –> 00:00:50,080 concretely, we would write

    31 00:00:50,090 –> 00:00:51,709 the preimage of a set

    32 00:00:51,720 –> 00:00:53,020 B in Y.

    33 00:00:54,380 –> 00:00:56,130 So now this usually denotes

    34 00:00:56,139 –> 00:00:57,580 the preimage of B but I

    35 00:00:57,590 –> 00:00:58,509 want to make that really

    36 00:00:58,520 –> 00:00:59,049 clear.

    37 00:00:59,060 –> 00:01:00,529 So I want to use brackets

    38 00:01:00,540 –> 00:01:00,840 here.

    39 00:01:01,819 –> 00:01:03,520 I think that’s helpful because

    40 00:01:03,529 –> 00:01:05,190 every time you see the brackets,

    41 00:01:05,199 –> 00:01:06,489 you know this is not the

    42 00:01:06,500 –> 00:01:07,910 inverse map, it’s the pre

    43 00:01:08,040 –> 00:01:08,430 image.

    44 00:01:09,629 –> 00:01:09,919 OK.

    45 00:01:09,930 –> 00:01:11,559 Now we say this set is

    46 00:01:11,569 –> 00:01:13,080 open in

    47 00:01:13,089 –> 00:01:14,760 X for

    48 00:01:14,769 –> 00:01:16,739 any open set B in

    49 00:01:16,750 –> 00:01:18,540 Y OK.

    50 00:01:18,550 –> 00:01:20,379 So this is the former definition.

    51 00:01:20,519 –> 00:01:21,639 And now I can give you a

    52 00:01:21,650 –> 00:01:23,300 picture to remember it.

    53 00:01:24,110 –> 00:01:25,519 So we have our metric space

    54 00:01:25,529 –> 00:01:26,849 X on the left hand side,

    55 00:01:26,860 –> 00:01:27,900 on the right hand side, we

    56 00:01:27,910 –> 00:01:29,379 have our metric space Y.

    57 00:01:29,440 –> 00:01:31,069 And in between, we have the

    58 00:01:31,080 –> 00:01:31,720 map.

    59 00:01:33,000 –> 00:01:34,389 Now, for any open set

    60 00:01:34,400 –> 00:01:35,779 B in Y,

    61 00:01:36,760 –> 00:01:38,040 we find the corresponding

    62 00:01:38,050 –> 00:01:39,540 preimage on the left hand

    63 00:01:39,550 –> 00:01:39,940 side.

    64 00:01:40,720 –> 00:01:42,480 Now the property continuous

    65 00:01:42,489 –> 00:01:44,000 means that if you start with

    66 00:01:44,010 –> 00:01:45,419 an open set here, you’ll

    67 00:01:45,430 –> 00:01:47,019 also get an open set here

    68 00:01:47,550 –> 00:01:48,919 by thinking about boundary

    69 00:01:48,930 –> 00:01:49,339 points.

    70 00:01:49,349 –> 00:01:50,980 This means that if you don’t

    71 00:01:50,989 –> 00:01:52,199 have any boundary points

    72 00:01:52,209 –> 00:01:53,940 in this set, you also don’t

    73 00:01:53,949 –> 00:01:55,250 have any boundary points

    74 00:01:55,260 –> 00:01:56,059 in this set.

    75 00:01:56,480 –> 00:01:57,709 In fact, you can also read

    76 00:01:57,720 –> 00:01:59,519 that from left to right

    77 00:01:59,529 –> 00:02:01,209 by looking here at an input

    78 00:02:01,970 –> 00:02:03,309 and you change the input

    79 00:02:03,319 –> 00:02:05,099 a little bit by a small distance.

    80 00:02:05,110 –> 00:02:06,230 You know, this is always

    81 00:02:06,239 –> 00:02:07,699 possible because you are

    82 00:02:07,709 –> 00:02:08,589 in an open set.

    83 00:02:09,268 –> 00:02:10,458 And then you know, on the

    84 00:02:10,467 –> 00:02:12,378 right hand side, the output

    85 00:02:12,389 –> 00:02:13,968 is also only changed

    86 00:02:13,979 –> 00:02:15,289 inside this open set.

    87 00:02:16,210 –> 00:02:17,669 Of course, this notion seems

    88 00:02:17,679 –> 00:02:18,770 a little bit abstract.

    89 00:02:18,779 –> 00:02:19,979 Therefore, now we look at

    90 00:02:19,990 –> 00:02:21,770 something we call sequentially

    91 00:02:21,779 –> 00:02:22,550 continuous.

    92 00:02:23,360 –> 00:02:25,000 As the name tells you this

    93 00:02:25,009 –> 00:02:26,250 has something to do with

    94 00:02:26,259 –> 00:02:27,300 sequences.

    95 00:02:27,979 –> 00:02:29,259 In some sense, I can repeat

    96 00:02:29,270 –> 00:02:30,820 what I told you before we

    97 00:02:30,830 –> 00:02:32,479 choose any output on the

    98 00:02:32,490 –> 00:02:33,380 left hand side.

    99 00:02:33,960 –> 00:02:35,639 And let’s call it X tilde.

    100 00:02:36,779 –> 00:02:38,619 And also let’s look at any

    101 00:02:38,630 –> 00:02:40,479 sequence XN that

    102 00:02:40,490 –> 00:02:42,039 converges to X tilde.

    103 00:02:42,770 –> 00:02:44,350 And then it should hold that

    104 00:02:44,360 –> 00:02:46,059 the new sequence F of

    105 00:02:46,070 –> 00:02:47,869 XN is convergent

    106 00:02:47,880 –> 00:02:49,339 to F of X tilde.

    107 00:02:50,380 –> 00:02:51,720 In other words, every

    108 00:02:51,729 –> 00:02:52,940 convergence sequence on the

    109 00:02:52,949 –> 00:02:54,300 left hand side gets

    110 00:02:54,309 –> 00:02:56,080 translated into a convergence

    111 00:02:56,089 –> 00:02:56,520 sequence.

    112 00:02:56,529 –> 00:02:57,699 On the right hand side,

    113 00:02:58,449 –> 00:02:59,860 you might already guess for

    114 00:02:59,869 –> 00:03:01,039 us, it might be easier to

    115 00:03:01,050 –> 00:03:02,820 work with the notion sequentially

    116 00:03:02,830 –> 00:03:04,679 continuous because we just

    117 00:03:04,690 –> 00:03:05,960 have to deal with sequences

    118 00:03:05,970 –> 00:03:06,279 there.

    119 00:03:07,039 –> 00:03:08,339 Now, the good thing is that

    120 00:03:08,350 –> 00:03:10,179 for metric spaces, both

    121 00:03:10,190 –> 00:03:11,740 terms mean indeed the same

    122 00:03:11,750 –> 00:03:12,130 thing.

    123 00:03:13,020 –> 00:03:14,740 In other words, one can prove

    124 00:03:14,750 –> 00:03:16,580 that they are in fact equivalent.

    125 00:03:17,369 –> 00:03:18,550 For that reason, we will

    126 00:03:18,559 –> 00:03:20,369 simply use the word continuous

    127 00:03:20,479 –> 00:03:21,929 but often mean this

    128 00:03:21,940 –> 00:03:23,759 characterization with sequences.

    129 00:03:24,660 –> 00:03:25,889 However, I wanted to show

    130 00:03:25,899 –> 00:03:27,649 you both definitions because

    131 00:03:27,660 –> 00:03:29,190 if you don’t work in magic

    132 00:03:29,199 –> 00:03:29,889 spaces.

    133 00:03:29,899 –> 00:03:31,669 But in general topological

    134 00:03:31,679 –> 00:03:33,309 spaces in general,

    135 00:03:33,320 –> 00:03:34,720 both notions are not

    136 00:03:34,729 –> 00:03:35,429 equivalent.

    137 00:03:36,309 –> 00:03:36,759 OK.

    138 00:03:36,770 –> 00:03:38,160 So I write down the fact

    139 00:03:38,169 –> 00:03:40,160 and then we can look at examples.

    140 00:03:40,759 –> 00:03:42,199 OK, maybe you already know

    141 00:03:42,210 –> 00:03:43,440 a lot of examples.

    142 00:03:43,520 –> 00:03:45,080 So let’s look at some simple

    143 00:03:45,089 –> 00:03:45,619 ones.

    144 00:03:46,410 –> 00:03:48,190 The first one would be choosing

    145 00:03:48,199 –> 00:03:49,630 XDX as the

    146 00:03:49,639 –> 00:03:51,110 discrete metric space.

    147 00:03:51,820 –> 00:03:53,649 So where X is any non

    148 00:03:53,720 –> 00:03:54,429 empty set?

    149 00:03:55,160 –> 00:03:56,339 Now, on the right hand side,

    150 00:03:56,350 –> 00:03:57,419 it does not matter which

    151 00:03:57,429 –> 00:03:58,580 metric space we choose.

    152 00:03:58,589 –> 00:04:00,490 So let’s say it’s any metric

    153 00:04:00,500 –> 00:04:00,940 space.

    154 00:04:02,089 –> 00:04:03,330 Now let’s look at the map

    155 00:04:03,339 –> 00:04:05,259 F from X to Y.

    156 00:04:06,339 –> 00:04:07,720 And then we can conclude

    157 00:04:07,729 –> 00:04:09,520 that this one has to be

    158 00:04:09,529 –> 00:04:10,320 continuous.

    159 00:04:11,020 –> 00:04:12,669 This is simply the case because

    160 00:04:12,679 –> 00:04:14,039 all subsets in a

    161 00:04:14,050 –> 00:04:16,040 discrete metric space are

    162 00:04:16,048 –> 00:04:16,709 open sets.

    163 00:04:17,410 –> 00:04:18,839 This means that checking

    164 00:04:18,850 –> 00:04:20,608 the definition of continuity

    165 00:04:20,690 –> 00:04:22,089 is immediately given here.

    166 00:04:22,890 –> 00:04:24,540 So keep that in mind, whenever

    167 00:04:24,549 –> 00:04:25,790 you see a discrete metric

    168 00:04:25,799 –> 00:04:27,299 space on the left hand side,

    169 00:04:27,940 –> 00:04:29,500 now another general example,

    170 00:04:29,510 –> 00:04:31,260 like this would be to consider

    171 00:04:31,269 –> 00:04:32,440 a constant function.

    172 00:04:32,570 –> 00:04:34,429 For this, we can choose X

    173 00:04:34,440 –> 00:04:35,950 and Y as general metric

    174 00:04:35,959 –> 00:04:37,640 spaces and then

    175 00:04:37,649 –> 00:04:39,070 fix A Y zero.

    176 00:04:39,079 –> 00:04:39,720 And Y.

    177 00:04:40,600 –> 00:04:42,179 In this case, then we

    178 00:04:42,190 –> 00:04:43,899 know that the map

    179 00:04:43,910 –> 00:04:45,540 F that sends all the

    180 00:04:45,549 –> 00:04:47,260 X to Y zero

    181 00:04:47,420 –> 00:04:49,059 is always continuous.

    182 00:04:50,029 –> 00:04:51,250 Indeed, this is what you

    183 00:04:51,260 –> 00:04:52,549 see immediately by looking

    184 00:04:52,559 –> 00:04:54,220 at the definition of sequentially

    185 00:04:54,230 –> 00:04:55,010 continuous.

    186 00:04:55,760 –> 00:04:56,910 Simply by looking at this

    187 00:04:56,920 –> 00:04:58,309 part where you know this

    188 00:04:58,320 –> 00:04:59,670 is always fulfilled.

    189 00:05:00,390 –> 00:05:01,670 The left hand side is always

    190 00:05:01,679 –> 00:05:02,410 Y zero.

    191 00:05:02,420 –> 00:05:03,790 The right hand side is always

    192 00:05:03,799 –> 00:05:04,429 Y zero.

    193 00:05:04,440 –> 00:05:06,209 So we stay at the limit point

    194 00:05:06,220 –> 00:05:08,089 for all N OK.

    195 00:05:08,100 –> 00:05:09,269 With this in mind, let’s

    196 00:05:09,279 –> 00:05:11,040 go to two other examples.

    197 00:05:11,049 –> 00:05:12,559 I find very important

    198 00:05:13,380 –> 00:05:14,820 for the first example, I

    199 00:05:14,829 –> 00:05:16,679 want to look at a norm space.

    200 00:05:17,309 –> 00:05:18,549 Of course, we always have

    201 00:05:18,559 –> 00:05:19,950 the induced metric space

    202 00:05:19,959 –> 00:05:20,440 in mind.

    203 00:05:21,299 –> 00:05:23,170 And Y should be just R

    204 00:05:23,230 –> 00:05:24,700 with the standard metric

    205 00:05:24,709 –> 00:05:26,239 given by the absolute value?

    206 00:05:26,920 –> 00:05:28,339 And now the map I want to

    207 00:05:28,350 –> 00:05:30,059 consider is F given

    208 00:05:30,070 –> 00:05:31,700 by X to R

    209 00:05:32,269 –> 00:05:33,760 where an element X is

    210 00:05:33,769 –> 00:05:35,299 sent to the norm of

    211 00:05:35,309 –> 00:05:35,839 X.

    212 00:05:36,339 –> 00:05:38,140 And now our claim is that

    213 00:05:38,149 –> 00:05:39,799 is always continuous.

    214 00:05:40,920 –> 00:05:41,260 OK.

    215 00:05:41,269 –> 00:05:42,459 So for this, let’s write

    216 00:05:42,470 –> 00:05:43,339 down a proof.

    217 00:05:43,350 –> 00:05:44,980 So we check that the map

    218 00:05:44,989 –> 00:05:46,320 is indeed sequentially

    219 00:05:46,329 –> 00:05:47,059 continuous.

    220 00:05:47,959 –> 00:05:49,559 Hence let XN be a

    221 00:05:49,570 –> 00:05:51,290 sequence in X with

    222 00:05:51,299 –> 00:05:53,019 limit point X tilde.

    223 00:05:53,880 –> 00:05:55,380 And then we look what happens

    224 00:05:55,390 –> 00:05:56,980 when we apply the map F.

    225 00:05:57,700 –> 00:05:59,619 Of course, F of XN is just

    226 00:05:59,630 –> 00:06:01,579 by definition the norm of

    227 00:06:01,589 –> 00:06:02,100 XN.

    228 00:06:03,130 –> 00:06:04,410 Now we have to bring in the

    229 00:06:04,420 –> 00:06:06,109 limit point because that’s

    230 00:06:06,119 –> 00:06:07,489 the only thing we know about

    231 00:06:07,500 –> 00:06:09,070 the sequence, it has a limit.

    232 00:06:09,980 –> 00:06:11,570 So what I do is subtract

    233 00:06:11,579 –> 00:06:13,119 the limit and add it again.

    234 00:06:13,160 –> 00:06:14,779 So we add a zero here

    235 00:06:14,790 –> 00:06:16,600 inside the norm, we

    236 00:06:16,609 –> 00:06:18,489 do that because then we

    237 00:06:18,500 –> 00:06:19,730 can apply the triangle

    238 00:06:19,739 –> 00:06:20,529 inequality.

    239 00:06:20,540 –> 00:06:22,299 So I write X and minus

    240 00:06:22,309 –> 00:06:23,839 X tilde in the norm

    241 00:06:23,850 –> 00:06:25,529 plus the norm of XT.

    242 00:06:26,630 –> 00:06:28,140 And then we know the first

    243 00:06:28,149 –> 00:06:29,529 part is just the distance

    244 00:06:29,540 –> 00:06:31,239 between XN and X

    245 00:06:31,250 –> 00:06:31,700 tilde.

    246 00:06:31,910 –> 00:06:33,779 And the second part is just

    247 00:06:33,790 –> 00:06:34,970 F of X tilde.

    248 00:06:35,820 –> 00:06:37,549 By assumption we now know

    249 00:06:37,589 –> 00:06:38,730 that the distance between

    250 00:06:38,739 –> 00:06:40,640 XN and X tilde goes to

    251 00:06:40,649 –> 00:06:42,260 zero when N goes to

    252 00:06:42,269 –> 00:06:42,959 infinity.

    253 00:06:43,799 –> 00:06:45,220 Hence doing a limit on both

    254 00:06:45,230 –> 00:06:45,679 sides.

    255 00:06:45,690 –> 00:06:47,140 We get that the limit of

    256 00:06:47,149 –> 00:06:48,910 F of XN is less or

    257 00:06:48,920 –> 00:06:50,559 equal than F of X til

    258 00:06:51,640 –> 00:06:51,959 OK.

    259 00:06:51,970 –> 00:06:53,339 So you see that’s already

    260 00:06:53,350 –> 00:06:54,450 half of the work we have

    261 00:06:54,459 –> 00:06:54,920 to do.

    262 00:06:55,040 –> 00:06:56,380 So now let’s go from the

    263 00:06:56,390 –> 00:06:57,779 other side and show the other

    264 00:06:57,790 –> 00:06:58,619 inequality.

    265 00:06:59,149 –> 00:07:00,209 Therefore, we start with

    266 00:07:00,220 –> 00:07:01,989 F of X tilde, which is just

    267 00:07:02,000 –> 00:07:03,579 the norm of X tilde

    268 00:07:04,380 –> 00:07:05,609 doing a similar thing than

    269 00:07:05,619 –> 00:07:07,160 before we just put in

    270 00:07:07,170 –> 00:07:08,239 XN.

    271 00:07:09,140 –> 00:07:10,959 So subtracting and adding

    272 00:07:10,970 –> 00:07:12,660 again, of course,

    273 00:07:12,670 –> 00:07:14,179 now we doing the triangle

    274 00:07:14,190 –> 00:07:16,179 inequality gives us X tilde

    275 00:07:16,190 –> 00:07:17,690 the minus XN in the

    276 00:07:17,700 –> 00:07:19,450 norm plus the norm of

    277 00:07:19,459 –> 00:07:21,239 XN, which is a

    278 00:07:21,250 –> 00:07:22,820 similar result as before

    279 00:07:22,829 –> 00:07:24,660 because we have XT the

    280 00:07:24,670 –> 00:07:26,149 XN in the metric

    281 00:07:26,230 –> 00:07:27,769 plus F of

    282 00:07:27,779 –> 00:07:28,250 XN.

    283 00:07:29,010 –> 00:07:29,989 Now, I don’t have to tell

    284 00:07:30,000 –> 00:07:31,309 you applying the limit on

    285 00:07:31,320 –> 00:07:32,109 both sides.

    286 00:07:32,119 –> 00:07:33,829 We get the inequality the

    287 00:07:33,839 –> 00:07:34,589 other way around.

    288 00:07:35,429 –> 00:07:36,720 And with that, our proof

    289 00:07:36,730 –> 00:07:38,130 is finished because we have

    290 00:07:38,140 –> 00:07:39,799 shown that the sequence F

    291 00:07:39,809 –> 00:07:41,790 of XN converges

    292 00:07:41,799 –> 00:07:43,279 with respect to the metric

    293 00:07:43,290 –> 00:07:45,170 in R to F of X tilde.

    294 00:07:45,899 –> 00:07:47,649 So we conclude the norm is

    295 00:07:47,660 –> 00:07:49,309 always a continuous map.

    296 00:07:49,910 –> 00:07:50,410 OK.

    297 00:07:50,420 –> 00:07:51,700 So you might guess with the

    298 00:07:51,709 –> 00:07:53,329 next example, we go to an

    299 00:07:53,339 –> 00:07:54,410 inner product space.

    300 00:07:54,950 –> 00:07:56,579 So let’s choose X as an inner

    301 00:07:56,589 –> 00:07:58,130 product space where we already

    302 00:07:58,140 –> 00:07:59,910 know it’s also a metric

    303 00:07:59,920 –> 00:08:00,470 space.

    304 00:08:01,049 –> 00:08:02,369 And why should we just the

    305 00:08:02,380 –> 00:08:04,089 complex numbers with the

    306 00:08:04,100 –> 00:08:05,709 standard metric given by

    307 00:08:05,720 –> 00:08:06,649 the absolute value?

    308 00:08:07,029 –> 00:08:08,239 Now, since an inner product

    309 00:08:08,250 –> 00:08:09,700 has two entries, I want to

    310 00:08:09,709 –> 00:08:11,209 fix the first one with a

    311 00:08:11,220 –> 00:08:12,670 given X zero.

    312 00:08:13,260 –> 00:08:14,730 Now the map we consider is

    313 00:08:14,739 –> 00:08:16,570 F defined from X to

    314 00:08:16,579 –> 00:08:17,079 Y.

    315 00:08:17,089 –> 00:08:18,799 So C and the

    316 00:08:18,809 –> 00:08:20,630 vector X is sent to the inner

    317 00:08:20,640 –> 00:08:22,549 product X zero with

    318 00:08:22,559 –> 00:08:23,079 X.

    319 00:08:23,670 –> 00:08:25,279 And the claim is again, this

    320 00:08:25,290 –> 00:08:27,200 map is a continuous one.

    321 00:08:28,089 –> 00:08:29,679 As before, I really want

    322 00:08:29,690 –> 00:08:30,910 to show you a proof of this

    323 00:08:30,920 –> 00:08:31,510 statement.

    324 00:08:32,020 –> 00:08:33,109 Of course, the procedure

    325 00:08:33,119 –> 00:08:34,400 should be the same as before

    326 00:08:34,409 –> 00:08:35,919 we consider any point X

    327 00:08:35,950 –> 00:08:37,659 tilde and a sequence that

    328 00:08:37,669 –> 00:08:39,099 is convergent to this point.

    329 00:08:39,659 –> 00:08:41,030 However, now, maybe we can

    330 00:08:41,039 –> 00:08:42,929 do it in one step when considering

    331 00:08:42,940 –> 00:08:44,739 the absolute value of F of

    332 00:08:44,750 –> 00:08:46,729 XN minus F of X

    333 00:08:46,739 –> 00:08:47,150 tilde.

    334 00:08:47,869 –> 00:08:49,010 In other words, this is the

    335 00:08:49,020 –> 00:08:50,469 inner product X zero with

    336 00:08:50,479 –> 00:08:52,340 XN and X zero with

    337 00:08:52,349 –> 00:08:54,280 X tilde using

    338 00:08:54,289 –> 00:08:55,609 the linearity, we can put

    339 00:08:55,619 –> 00:08:56,219 that together.

    340 00:08:56,229 –> 00:08:57,510 So we have just one in a

    341 00:08:57,520 –> 00:08:58,119 product.

    342 00:08:58,849 –> 00:09:00,270 Now, every time you see something

    343 00:09:00,280 –> 00:09:01,630 like that, you know, you

    344 00:09:01,640 –> 00:09:03,270 can apply Cauchy Schwarz,

    345 00:09:04,000 –> 00:09:05,159 this means that we have the

    346 00:09:05,169 –> 00:09:07,099 inequality I will abbreviate

    347 00:09:07,109 –> 00:09:08,229 with CS

    348 00:09:08,940 –> 00:09:10,159 and it tells us we have the

    349 00:09:10,169 –> 00:09:11,760 norm of X zero times the

    350 00:09:11,770 –> 00:09:13,460 norm of XN minus

    351 00:09:13,510 –> 00:09:14,260 X tilde.

    352 00:09:14,750 –> 00:09:16,179 Since this last part is the

    353 00:09:16,190 –> 00:09:17,890 distance between XN and X

    354 00:09:17,900 –> 00:09:19,820 tilde, we know this goes

    355 00:09:19,830 –> 00:09:21,320 to zero when N goes to

    356 00:09:21,330 –> 00:09:21,979 infinity.

    357 00:09:22,710 –> 00:09:24,090 Moreover, the whole right

    358 00:09:24,099 –> 00:09:25,650 hand side goes to zero

    359 00:09:25,659 –> 00:09:27,239 when N goes to infinity.

    360 00:09:27,940 –> 00:09:29,260 In conclusion, also the left

    361 00:09:29,270 –> 00:09:31,030 hand side goes to zero because

    362 00:09:31,039 –> 00:09:32,359 it was non negative from

    363 00:09:32,369 –> 00:09:32,940 the beginning.

    364 00:09:33,830 –> 00:09:35,479 And then we know the sequence

    365 00:09:35,489 –> 00:09:37,440 FX N converges to F

    366 00:09:37,450 –> 00:09:38,150 of X til

    367 00:09:39,090 –> 00:09:39,469 OK.

    368 00:09:39,479 –> 00:09:40,809 So we have shown that the

    369 00:09:40,820 –> 00:09:42,450 inner product is a continuous

    370 00:09:42,460 –> 00:09:44,070 map in the second argument.

    371 00:09:44,700 –> 00:09:46,070 And by symmetry or using

    372 00:09:46,080 –> 00:09:47,359 the same argument as here,

    373 00:09:47,369 –> 00:09:48,719 we can also show that it

    374 00:09:48,729 –> 00:09:50,239 is a continuous map in the

    375 00:09:50,250 –> 00:09:51,280 first argument.

    376 00:09:51,719 –> 00:09:52,859 This is important to know

    377 00:09:52,869 –> 00:09:54,039 for a lot of proofs we will

    378 00:09:54,049 –> 00:09:54,960 do in the future.

    379 00:09:55,059 –> 00:09:56,109 And I’ll show you one.

    380 00:09:56,119 –> 00:09:58,000 Now indeed,

    381 00:09:58,010 –> 00:09:59,130 this is the cliffhanger from

    382 00:09:59,140 –> 00:09:59,960 the last video.

    383 00:09:59,969 –> 00:10:01,039 So we have an inner product

    384 00:10:01,049 –> 00:10:02,840 space and a subset U

    385 00:10:03,520 –> 00:10:05,090 and then U perp the orthogonal

    386 00:10:05,099 –> 00:10:06,630 complement of U

    387 00:10:06,640 –> 00:10:08,559 is always a close subset

    388 00:10:09,270 –> 00:10:10,549 proving this is not hard

    389 00:10:10,559 –> 00:10:12,280 at all because now we know

    390 00:10:12,289 –> 00:10:13,500 all the things we need.

    391 00:10:13,890 –> 00:10:15,559 Now please recall part four

    392 00:10:15,570 –> 00:10:17,000 of the series where I

    393 00:10:17,010 –> 00:10:18,789 described close sets with

    394 00:10:18,799 –> 00:10:19,919 the help of sequences.

    395 00:10:20,559 –> 00:10:21,700 So what we have to do is

    396 00:10:21,710 –> 00:10:23,059 choose a sequence in the

    397 00:10:23,070 –> 00:10:24,760 set itself where we know

    398 00:10:24,770 –> 00:10:25,900 it’s convergent.

    399 00:10:25,909 –> 00:10:27,640 But first just in the space

    400 00:10:27,650 –> 00:10:29,570 X, now when we can

    401 00:10:29,580 –> 00:10:31,169 show that the limit X tilde

    402 00:10:31,179 –> 00:10:33,130 is also in U perp then

    403 00:10:33,140 –> 00:10:34,770 we know U perp is closed.

    404 00:10:35,429 –> 00:10:35,799 OK.

    405 00:10:35,809 –> 00:10:37,239 So now we just have to use

    406 00:10:37,250 –> 00:10:38,700 the definition of U perp

    407 00:10:39,299 –> 00:10:41,020 which means that inner product

    408 00:10:41,030 –> 00:10:42,940 of XN with U is

    409 00:10:42,950 –> 00:10:44,590 always zero, no matter

    410 00:10:44,599 –> 00:10:45,840 which U we choose.

    411 00:10:46,330 –> 00:10:47,739 Since this equation holds

    412 00:10:47,750 –> 00:10:49,400 for all N, we can look at

    413 00:10:49,409 –> 00:10:51,039 the limit and know this is

    414 00:10:51,049 –> 00:10:51,940 also zero.

    415 00:10:52,719 –> 00:10:54,500 And now we know we can pull

    416 00:10:54,510 –> 00:10:56,059 in the limit here because

    417 00:10:56,070 –> 00:10:57,900 this is just the continuity

    418 00:10:57,909 –> 00:10:59,859 of the map G we stated before.

    419 00:11:00,739 –> 00:11:02,210 In other words, we just have

    420 00:11:02,219 –> 00:11:04,030 X tilde with U is equal to

    421 00:11:04,039 –> 00:11:04,530 zero.

    422 00:11:05,000 –> 00:11:06,390 And since this holds for

    423 00:11:06,400 –> 00:11:08,340 all u in U, you see

    424 00:11:08,349 –> 00:11:09,739 this is just the definition

    425 00:11:09,750 –> 00:11:11,669 of U perp X tilde is

    426 00:11:11,679 –> 00:11:12,830 also in U perp.

    427 00:11:13,530 –> 00:11:14,669 And this is exactly what

    428 00:11:14,679 –> 00:11:16,469 we wanted to show the a formal

    429 00:11:16,479 –> 00:11:17,950 complement is always a

    430 00:11:17,960 –> 00:11:18,820 close set.

    431 00:11:19,539 –> 00:11:21,349 And you have seen this immediately

    432 00:11:21,359 –> 00:11:22,919 comes from the continuity

    433 00:11:22,929 –> 00:11:23,989 of the inner product.

    434 00:11:24,799 –> 00:11:25,200 OK?

    435 00:11:25,210 –> 00:11:26,159 I think that’s good enough

    436 00:11:26,169 –> 00:11:26,700 for today.

    437 00:11:26,710 –> 00:11:28,260 Thank you very much for listening

    438 00:11:28,270 –> 00:11:29,210 and please check out the

    439 00:11:29,219 –> 00:11:31,179 PDFs if you want of

    440 00:11:31,190 –> 00:11:32,130 course, I hope I see you

    441 00:11:32,140 –> 00:11:33,659 next time when we go further

    442 00:11:33,669 –> 00:11:34,950 into the topic of functional

    443 00:11:34,960 –> 00:11:35,710 analysis.

    444 00:11:36,260 –> 00:11:37,849 So have a nice day and see

    445 00:11:37,859 –> 00:11:38,340 you then.

    446 00:11:38,349 –> 00:11:38,940 Bye.
