7.38. Let H be an inner product space. We say that a sequence \{u_n\} \subset H converges weakly to a vector u \in H if \lim_{n \to \infty} (u_n, v) = (u, v) for all v \in H. We denote this by u_n \rightharpoonup u. Show that if the sequence \{u_n\} converges to the

Step 1
Now, let's consider the sequence {un} converging weakly to the vector u. This means that for any vector v in H, the inner product of un with v converges to the inner product of u with v, i.e., lim unv = u. Using the definition of the norm, we can rewrite the Show more…

Show that for a sequence xn in an inner product space, the conditions ||xn|| → ||x|| and <xn,x> → <x,x> imply convergence xn → x.

If (xj) is a sequence in an inner product space X such that the series ‖x1‖+‖x2‖+⋯ converges, show that (sn) is a Cauchy sequence, where sn=x1+…+xn.

Let { xn } be a real sequence that is bounded, and let { yn } be a real sequence that converges to 0. Prove that the product sequence { xnyn } converges to 0. Note that it is not given that { xn } converges. The Theorem about the product of two sequences converging cannot be used here. Why not?
