Let $X$ be an Hilbert subspace of $ell^2$ over $mathbbC$



$forall v in ell^2$ let indicate with $v_n$ the nth element of the sequence $v$



Let $Y = y in ell^2 backslash exists x in X: y_n = fracx_nn $



Let $T: X to Y$ be the linear operator such that $(Tx)_n = fracx_nn$



My question is: Is $T$ a homeomorphism?

          It need not be for an infinite-dimensional subspace. Suppose the zero sequence and at least a countable subset of the countable family of sequences $mathcalF = s_k_k=1^infty, textwhere (s_k)_n = delta_kn$ is in X. ($s_k$ is the sequence that has zeros as entries except for the kth entry, where it is 1.)



          Note that $Ts_k rightarrow 0 in ell^2$, but $s_k nrightarrow 0$. This shows that $T^-1$ is not continuous. Hence T is not a homeomorphism.
