The product decomposition conjecture for the completion of smooth functions

At least 11 years old · documented by

Let 0<p<10<p<1, let M=(Mk)k≥0\mathcal{M}=(M_k)_{k\geq 0} be the weight sequence defining the quasi-norm

∥f∥M=sup⁡k≥0∥f∥pMk,\left\lVert f\right\rVert_{\mathcal{M}}=\sup_{k\geq 0}\frac{\left\lVert f\right\rVert_p}{M_k},

and let C^\widehat{\mathcal{C}} be the completion of C∞C^{\infty} with respect to this quasi-norm. The product decomposition conjecture. For the space C^\widehat{\mathcal{C}} we have

C^≅Lp×Lp×Lp×⋯ .\widehat{\mathcal{C}}\cong L^p\times L^p\times L^p\times\cdots.

This conjecture proposes that the completion of the whole smooth-function space decomposes topologically as a countable product of copies of LpL^p, extending the pathological behavior known for finite-order Sobolev spaces when 0<p<10<p<1.
