Generalization of the Ehrling inequality and universal characterization of completely continuous operators
Abstract
The present work is devoted to an extension of the well-known Ehrling inequalities, which quantitatively characterize compact embeddings of function spaces, to more general operators. Firstly, a modified notion of continuity for linear operators, named \emph{Ehrling continuity} and inspired by the classical Ehrling inequality, is introduced, and then, a necessary and sufficient condition for Ehrling continuity is provided via arguments based on general topology. Secondly, general completely continuous operators between normed spaces are characterized in terms of (generalized) Ehrling type inequalities. To this end, the well-known local metrization of the weak topology (so to speak, a \emph{very weak norm}) plays a crucial role. Thanks to these results, a universal relation is observed among complete continuity, the very weak norm and generalized Ehrling type inequality.
