A group invariant Bishop-Phelps theorem

Abstract

We show that for any Banach space and any compact topological group G ⊂ L ( X ) G\subset L(X) such that the norm of X X is G G -invariant, the set of norm attaining G G -invariant functionals on X X is dense in the set of all G G -invariant functionals on X X , where a mapping f f is called G G -invariant if for every x ∈ X x\in X and every g ∈ G g\in G , f ( g ( x ) ) = f ( x ) f\big (g(x)\big )=f(x) . In contrast, we show also that the analog of Bollobás result does not hold in general. A version of Bollobás and James’ theorems is also presented.
