Dear all, The next Banach spaces webinar is on Friday November 13 at 9AM CDT (e.g., Dallas, TX time). Please join us at https://unt.zoom.us/j/512907580 Speaker: Eva Pernecká, Czech Technical University in Prague Title: Lipschitz free spaces and their biduals Abstract: We will study continuous linear functionals on Lipschitz spaces with special focus on those belonging to canonical preduals, the Lipschitz free spaces. We will show that in order to verify weak$^*$ continuity of a functional, it suffices to do so for bounded monotone nets of Lipschitz functions. Then, after introducing a notion of support for the functionals, we will discuss their relation to measures. In particular, we will identify the functionals induced by measures as those functionals that admit a Jordan-like decomposition into a positive and a negative part. The talk will be based on joint work with Ramón J. Aliaga.
