Let and be Normed Spaces. Write (or ) for the set of continuous Linear Operators equipped with the Operator Norm .

Lemma

The space is a Normed Space.

Proof

Note that if then . Indeed so is bounded, so it is a Linear Operator

Proposition

Suppose are Normed Spaces. Let and . Then and

Properties

Closed subspace of L(X,Y) Completeness of L(X,Y)
