Chapter 3 deals with linear metric and linear semimetric spaces, the concepts of paranormed spaces and Schauder bases, and their most important properties. Among other things, it is shown that the quotient of a paranormed space is a paranormed space, and that quotient paranorms preserve completeness. The highlights of the chapter are the open mapping theorem, the closed graph theorem, the uniform boundedness principle and the Banach–Steinhaus theorem, which are generally considered as being the main results in functional analysis, apart from the Hahn–Banach extension theorem which is presented in Chapter 4. Furthermore, the chapter contains studies of useful properties of seminorms, further results related to local convexity, and the Minkowski functional and its role in defining a seminorm or norm on a linear space. Finally, a sufficient condition is established for the metrizability of a linear topology, and also a criterion is given for a linear topology to be generated by a seminorm.

Seminorm. Let V be a vector space. Recall that a function p:V→[0,∞) $ p :V \rightarrow [0,\infty ) $ is called a seminorm iffp(αu)=|α|p(u) $ p (\alpha \boldsymbol{u}) = |\alpha | p (\boldsymbol{u}) $ (homogeneity)p(u+v)≤p(u)+p(v) $ p (\boldsymbol{u}+ \boldsymbol{v}) \le p (\boldsymbol{u}) + p (\boldsymbol{v}) $ (triangle inequality)for every scalar α $ \alpha $ and vectors u,v $ \boldsymbol{u},\boldsymbol{v} $ . Obviously every norm is a seminorm but not conversely.

A seminorm on V is a non-negative, real-valued function that is positively homogeneous ( for all ) and sub-additive (); it is a norm if in addition it is definite (). For example, for any basis , subset and we have the associated -seminorm: which is a norm on V as soon as A = B, in which case we simply write . For p = 2 and A = B we obtain the classical Euclidean norm and we call the norm ellipsoidal because its unit ball is an ellipsoid, or, equivalently, the norm is derived from a scalar product.

The solution domain is defined as , which is covered by a uniform grid with spacing . For any grid function , the following notations are introduced Denote For any grid functions , we define the discrete inner product and the associated -norm The discrete -norm is defined as Let , and for any given , the fractional Sobolev norm and seminorm are defined as where the relation between the semi-discrete Fourier transform and the grid function are given by Obviously, . Let , then we introduce the following two lemmas which are shown in [25,26,31,32].

In this example, we set the interval . The initial value u(x, 0) is taken by (5.1) for . As we all know, for , the exact solution cannot be given explicitly, and thus we give the numerical exact solution by using the proposed scheme with a very fine mesh size and time step . Let be the numerical solution. The corresponding convergence orders of the error at time with the norm and the seminorm are calculated by
