The first point here is that convex sets can be separated by linear functionals. Second, continuous linear functionals on subspaces of a locally convex topological vectorspace have continuous extensions to the whole space. Proofs are for real vectorspaces. The complex versions are corollaries. A crucial corollary is that on locally convex topological vectorspaces continuous linear functionals s...

Whenever a functional is concave it is natural to ask whether its sendograph is a closed convex set. If so, the Hahn–Banach theory implies that the functional can be represented as the infimum of all continuous linear functionals greater than or equal to it. We refer to such representation as a dual representation. Dominated convergence of the concave integral for capacities is characterized in...

An infinite dimensional algebra which is a non-decomposable reducible representation of su(2) is given. This algebra is defined with respect to two real parameters. If one of these parameters is zero the algebra is the commutative algebra of functions on the sphere, otherwise it is a noncommutative analogue. This is an extension of the algebra normally refered to as the (Berezin) quantum sphere...

Given f : X → R ∪ {+∞} a convex and lower semi-continuous function defined on a reflexive Banach space X, and L, a closed linear manifold of X over which f takes at least a real value, the aim of this note is to prove the following Baire category result: in the Euclidean setting, the set of affine functions dominated by f on L for which there is no dominated extension to X is always of first Ba...
