Linear operators, dual spaces, and the Hahn–Banach theorem.
Banach Spaces. Linear operators, dual spaces, and the Hahn–Banach theorem.
Foundations and canonical references
The standard treatments of banach spaces approach the subject from complementary angles. Albiac, Topics in Banach Space Theory (2006) is the anchor reference for the subject and lays out the core definitions, theorems, and worked examples that practitioners return to. Rudin, Functional Analysis (1991) gives a parallel, more proof-oriented exposition of the same material and is widely used as a graduate text.
Open methodological questions for banach spaces include sharpening the bridges between foundational theory and computational practice, extending classical results to broader or more structured settings, and integrating the techniques surveyed above with adjacent mathematical disciplines. The references listed in this page are the entry points that current work builds on.
