|
|
Hi!
I want to ask some question in real analysis.
If X consists of 2 points, a, b define a measure m(a)=1 ,m(b)=m(X)=inf
m ( empty set ) =0
Is it true that L_inf (m) is the dual space of L_1 (m) ?
If there exist such isomorphism between these space, then I wonder
that whether or not for some g in L_inf(m),
the corresponding bounded linear functional A_g must have the form A_g
(f) =integral fg dm .
Any help would be very appreciated. |

This doesn't make sense. A measure is a function defined on _subsets_ of
X, not on _elements_ of X. I suppose that you meant that m({a}) = 1 and
that m({b}) = 0. But m(X) cannot be equal to 0. It must be equal to 1.

Yes. Actually, they are equal. Both spaces are the set of all functions
from X into R U {+oo,-oo} such that f(a) is real and the norm of such a
function is |f(a)|.
