Let X be a normed linear space. We regard X as a subspace of its bidual X**. Polars will always be evaluated in the pair (X**, X*). We denote the closed unit ball in X by U, so that U0, U00 are the closed unit balls in X*, X** respectively. The weak topology induced by X on X* (the “weak-star” topology) will be denoted by σ(X), and cl() will denote σ(X)-closure.
