This first correction page is based on a long and insightful lists from
Bob Burckel and Eric Løw. I should also like to thank Marit Sand-
stad, Norton Starr, Wan-Teh Chang, Silas Davis, Vito Videtta, Daniel
James, Eliya Gwetta, Johan Grundberg, Robin Chapman and Kassra
Rashidian for contributions.
Page 13 End of first paragraph. Replace (P4) by (P3).
Page 18 In Theorem 1.42 we do not need the assumption K ≥ 0.
page 32 In proof of Lemma 3.4 first (ii′ ) should be (i′ )
Page 45 [A clarification rather than a correction] In Exercise 4.5,
(ii), line 2 ‘positive’ for us means ‘non-negative’.
Page 47 In Exercise 4.11 (ii) replace + by − to get
kx + yk2 − kx − yk2 .
Page 49 In Exercise 4.17 (i) replace ‘closed’ by ‘bounded’.
Page 52 In Exercise 4.27 (iii) replace the self referential (iii) by (ii).
Page 52 In Exercise 4.27 (iv) ∞
T S∞
F
j=1 j should be j=1 j .
F
Page 55 Line 3, replace f (x) by f (y)
Page 55 In Exercise 4.36 replace ‘Lemma 4.29’ by ‘Exercise 4.29’.
Page 69 In Exercise 4.79 (iii) next to last line, replace ‘to to’ by ‘to’.
Page 73 First line of Exercise 5.3 (i). |an+1 /an | < (1 + |l|)/2.
Page 75 Exercise 5.9 (iii) ‘inequality of Exercise 5.7 (i)’ (not Exercise
5.7 (ii)).
Page 84 First two lines of proof. Replace Xk by Ek and X by E.
Page 85 In line 6, Theorem 5.26 should be Lemma 5.26.
Page 107 In line 21, the second A should be A′ . In line 22 the first
′
A should be A.
Pages 108 and 453 ‘Pierce’ should be ‘Peirce’.
Page 116 Line 6, L should be L. Line 8, should say that ℜz is the
real part of z. In part (v) we must specify that K is closed under
conjugation (ie z ∈ K implies z ∗ ∈ K).
Page 118 Second last line of second last paragraph. Replace h → x
by h → 0.
Page 142 Line 2 should end ‘= 0’.
Page 148 Since f maps to R we have ǫ(h) ∈ R and on line -4 should
have |ǫ(h)| rather than kǫ(h)k.
