5. Finite Dimensional Normed Vector Spaces
Michael Richard
April 21, 2006
5.1 Some Definitions
1. A vector space (over R) consists of a set V and operations:
(a) Vector Addition:
V × V → V
(x, y) 7→ xy
(Which is commutatative, associative, zeroes and inverses)(b) Scalar Multiplication with distribution laws:
R× V → V
(λ, x) 7→ λx
Where 1 · v = v and 0 · v = 0
2. A norm on a vector space V is a function
|| · || : V 7→ [0,∞)
with the properties
(a) Positive Definite
||x|| = 0 ⇔ x = 0
(b) Homogeneous
||λ · x|| = |λ| · ||x|| ∀ λ ∈ R, x ∈ V
(c) Triangle inequality
||x + y|| ≤ ||x||+ ||y|| ∀ x, y ∈ V
The pair (V, || · ||) is called a normed vector space
3. Let (V, ||·||) be a normed vector space. A sequence (xn)n∈N in V convergesto x ∈ V if
limn→∞||xn − x|| = 0

5.2 Remark
If A ⊂ V , we still have the notions of openness, closedness, compactness andcompleteness. Recall that
1. A is said to be open if, for each point x ∈ A, there exists some r > 0 suchthat Br(x) ⊆ A
2. A is said to be closed if each convergent sequence xn ∈ A converges to apoint x ∈ A
3. A is said to be compact if every sequence in xn ∈ A has a convergentsubsequence xnk
convering to a point x ∈ A
4. A is said to be complete if every Cauchy sequence in A converges to apoint in A
5.3 Remark
Let (V, || · ||) be a normed vector space where V is finite-dimensional. Thismeans there exists a basis (v1, v2, ..., vn) ∈ V such that
1. (v1, v2, ..., vn) are linearly independent that is
0 = λ1v1 + λ2v2 + ... + λnvn ⇒ λi = 0 ∀ i
2. Each v ∈ V can be written as
v = λ1v1 + λ2v2 + ... + λnvn (uniquely)
Fixing such a basis (v1, v2, ..., vn) we can define a mapping T : V → Rn
λ1v1 + λ2v2 + ... + λnvn 7→ (λ1, λ2, ..., λn)
Where T is linear and bijective
Putting||(λ1, λ2, ..., λn)|| := ||λ1v1 + λ2v2 + ... + λnvn||
defines a norm on Rn
Therefore, understanding all n-dimensional normed vector spaces is equiva-lent to understanding all norms on Rn.
Example: There exist many different norms on Rn.
||(λ1, λ2, ..., λn)||1 := |λ1|+ |λ2|+ ... + |λn|
2
||(λ1, λ2, ..., λn)||2 :=√
λ21 + λ2
2 + ... + λ2n
||(λ1, λ2, ..., λn)||∞ := max(|λ1|, |λ2|, ...|λn|)
More generally,
||(λ1, λ2, ..., λn)||p := (|λ1|p + ... + |λn|p)1/p
5.4 Definition
Let V be a vector space and let || · ||1 and || · ||2 be two norms.
We say that ||·||1 and ||·||2 are equivalent if there exists c1, c2 > 0 such that:
||x||1 ≤ c1||x||2 and
||x||2 ≤ c2||x||1 ∀ x ∈ V
5.5 Proposition
Let || · ||1 and || · ||2 be two equivalent norms on V .
1. For a sequence (xn)n in V , we have
(xn)n converges w.r.t. || · ||1 ⇔ (xn)n converges w.r.t. || · ||2
2. For a subset A ⊂ V we have
A open w.r.t. || · ||1 ⇔ A is open w.r.t. || · ||2
A closed w.r.t. || · ||1 ⇔ A is closed w.r.t. || · ||2
A compact w.r.t. || · ||1 ⇔ A is compact w.r.t. || · ||2
A complete w.r.t. || · ||1 ⇔ A is complete w.r.t. || · ||2
Proof
1. ||xn − x||1 ≤ c1||xn − x||2
Note that ||xn − x||2 → 0 ⇒ ||xn − x||1 → 0The same argument can be used to show ⇐.

2. This is clear. Note that for ”Open”, each ball in || · ||1 norm containsa ball in || · ||2, and vice versa. Similar arguments can be used forclosed, compact and complete.
Thus, all topological statements are the same w.r.t. equivalent norms.
5.6 Theorem
Let V be a finite dimensional vector space. Then all norms on V areequivalent.
Proof By Remark 5.3, it suffices to consider V = Rn.
We show that any norm || · || on Rn is equivalent to special norm || · ||∞given by
||(λ1, λ2, ..., λn)||∞ := max(|λ1|, |λ2|, ...|λn|)
Let (e1, e2, ..., en) be a standard basis of Rn
where e1 = (1, 0, 0, ..., 0), e2 = (0, 1, 0, ..., 0) etc.
||(λ1, ..., λn)|| = ||n∑
i=1
λiei||
≤n∑
i=1
||λiei|| where ||λiei|| = |λi|||ei||
≤ n ·maxi|λi| ·maxi||ei||= c1 · ||(λ1, ..., λn)||∞ with c1 := n ·maxi=1,...,n||ei||
Now define a functionf : Rn → Rx 7→ f(x) := ||x||⇒ continuous w.r.t. || · ||∞ - norm, since
|f(x)− f(y)| = |||x|| − ||y|||≤ ||x− y||≤ c1||x− y||∞ by above
Now let’s restrict f to
S := {x ∈ Rn|||x||∞ = 1}

Heine Borel ⇒ S is compact, for || · ||∞ - norm
The Extreme Value Theorem (EVT) ⇒ there exists a minimum of f on S.
In other words, EV T ⇒ ∃ a ∈ S : f(a) ≤ f(x) ∀ x ∈ S.
Put c2 := f(a) = ||a||
(c2 = 0 ⇒ ||a|| = 0 = a ⇒ ||a||∞ = 0 ⇒ a /∈ S), so c2 > 0
This means||x|| ≥ c2 ∀ x with ||x||∞ = 1
y 6= 0 ∈ R → x :=y
||y||∞⇒ ||x||∞ = 1
⇒ ||x|| ≥ c2 ⇒ ||y|| ≥ c2||y||∞
⇒ ||y||∞ ≤ 1c2||y||
5.7 Corollary
Let V be a finite dimensional normed vector space
1. V is complete
2. A ⊂ V is compact ⇔ A is closed and bounded
5.8 Definition
A complete normed vector space is called a Banach Space.
5.9 Example
Every finite dimensional normed vector space is a Banach space, in par-ticular, Rn with norms
||(λ1, ..., λn||p := p√|λ1|p + ... + |λn|p
is, for any 1 ≤ p < ∞, a Banach Space.
We can also include p = ∞
||(λ1, ..., λn||∞ := max(|λ1|, ..., |λn|)

5.10 Example
Let (V, || · ||) be a normed vector space and prove that
|||x|| − ||y||| ≤ ||x− y|| ∀ x, y ∈ V
and use this to show that the mapping
|| · || : V → R
x 7→ ||x||
is continuous.
In other words, we want to show that
||x|| − ||y|| ≤ ||x− y|| if ||x|| ≥ ||y|| and
||y|| − ||x|| ≤ ||x− y|| if ||y|| ≥ ||x||
First, x = x− y + y
Then, ||x|| = ||(x− y) + y||≤ ||x− y||+ ||y|| By the Triangle Inequality, now rearrange
||x|| − ||y|| ≤ ||x− y||
We do a similar computation for when ||y|| ≥ ||x||, using y = y − x + xand the fact that ||x− y|| = ||y − x||
Now, show that ∀ ε > 0, ∃ δ > 0, x, x0 ∈ V such that ||x − x0|| < δ ⇒|||x|| − ||x0||| < ε
We know that |||x|| − ||x0||| ≤ ||x− x0||
Let ε > 0 be given, and let δ = ε
Then, for any ||x− x0|| < δ,
|||x|| − ||x0||| ≤ ||x− x0|| < δ = ε and so |||x|| − ||x0||| < ε
