weighted norm modification












2














Fix constants $ w_1,...,w_n > 0 $, and for $ x,y in mathbb{R}^n $, define:
$$ big < x,y big >_w = sum_{k=1}^n w_ix_iy_i text{.} $$
Verify that this yields an inner product on $ mathbb{R}^n $. How would we need to modify this definition for it to yield an inner product on $ mathbb{C}^n $? What about $ l^2(mathbb{N}) $?



I only have a question about the inner product on $ l^2 $. Would I need to add conditions like $ w_n $ converges as well as $ x_n = y_n $ and $ x_n $ converges in $ l^2$ to make it work?

          For $mathbb{C}^n$:



          $$big < x,y big >_w = sum_{i=1}^n w_ix_ioverline{y}_i,$$



          where $overline{y_i}$ denotes the complex conjugate of $y_i$.



          For $mathcal{l}^2(mathbb{N})$:



          $$big < x,y big >_w = sum_{i=1}^{+infty} w_ix_iy_i.$$



          To ensure convergence, a necessary condition is that $w_i to 0$ when $i to +infty$.
