An extension of the normed dual functors

Abstract

By means of the direct limit technique, with every normed space X it is associated a bidualic (Banach) space X~(D2(X~)X~\tilde{X} (D^2( \tilde{X}) \cong \tilde{X} - called the hyperdual of XX) that contains (isometrically embedded) XX as well as all the even (normed) duals D2n(X)D^{2n}(X), which make an increasing sequence of the category retracts. The algebraic dimension dim X~\tilde{X} = dim XX (dim X~\tilde{X} = 202^{\aleph_0} ), whenever dim X0X \neq \aleph_0, (dim X=0X = \aleph_0). Furthermore, the correspondence XX~X \mapsto \tilde{X} extends to a faithful covariant functor (called the hyperdual functor) on the category of normed spaces.
