Let c>1 be a real number, and let Fc be the space of sequences a=(a1,a2,…) of real numbers ai with ∑r=1∞c−r∣ar∣ convergent. Show that ∥a∥c=∑r=1∞c−r∣ar∣ defines a norm on Fc.
Let F denote the space of sequences a with ∣ai∣ bounded; show that F⊂Fc. If c′>c, show that the norms on F given by restricting to F the norms ∥⋅∥c on Fc and ∥⋅∥c′ on Fc′ are not Lipschitz equivalent.
By considering sequences of the form a(n)=(a,a2,…,an,0,0,…) in F, for a an appropriate real number, or otherwise, show that F (equipped with the norm ∥.∥c ) is not complete.
