Prove that $x_i$ converges weakly to $y$.












1












$begingroup$


Let $H$ be a Hilbert space. Let ${x_i}$ be a sequence in $H$ with the following two properties:





  • $|x_i|=1$ for all $i$

  • There is a fixed number $cgeq0$ such that $(x_i,x_j)=c$ whenever $ineq j$.


Define
$$
y_n:=frac{1}{n}sum_{i=1}^nx_i.
$$

Prove that there is a $yin H$ such that $y_n$ converges strongly to $y$ and $x_i$ converges weakly to $y$.



I can prove that $y_n$ converges strongly to $y$ by proving it is a Cauchy sequence. But I don't know how to prove $x_i$ converges to $y$ weakly.

          Just test whether $$langle y,vrangle = lim_{ntoinfty} langle x_n,vrangle$$ holds for every $vin H$. This can be done by 2 steps. You test it for $v in text{span}{x_j;|;jgeq 1}$ first, and then for $v in text{span}^perp{x_j;|;jgeq 1}$. Since $$H = overline{text{span}}{x_j;|;jgeq 1} oplus text{span}^perp{x_j;|;jgeq 1},$$ this will prove the result.

          Just test whether $$langle y,vrangle = lim_{ntoinfty} langle x_n,vrangle$$ holds for every $vin H$. This can be done by 2 steps. You test it for $v in text{span}{x_j;|;jgeq 1}$ first, and then for $v in text{span}^perp{x_j;|;jgeq 1}$. Since $$H = overline{text{span}}{x_j;|;jgeq 1} oplus text{span}^perp{x_j;|;jgeq 1},$$ this will prove the result.
