Hahn–Banach theorem: History & Applications

In functional analysis, the Hahn–Banach theorem is a central result that allows the extension of bounded linear functionals defined on a vector subspace of some vector space to the whole space. The theorem also shows that there are sufficient continuous linear functionals defined on every normed vector space in order to study the dual space. Another…
