Is this extension continuous on $X$?

Let $X$ be a locally convex space. Let $M$ be a dense subspace of $X$ and let $fin M^*$. And I am trying to show there exists $gin X^*$ such that $g|_M=f$.



My attempts are:



Let $xin X$. Then there exists a net $(x_i)$ in $M$ such that $x_irightarrow x$. Thus $(x_i)$ is a Cauchy net in $M$, and hence $(f(x_i))$ is a Cauchy net in $mathbbF$. Since $mathbbF$ is a Banach space, $limlimits_i f(x_i)$ exists in $mathbbF$. Now define $g(x)=limlimits_i f(x_i)$. Then $g:XrightarrowmathbbF$ is linear and $g|_M=f$. Let $(x_k)$ be a net in $X$ such that $x_krightarrow x$.



And I am trying to show $g(x_k)rightarrow g(x)$ to get continuity of $g$. But I am stuck here. Does $g(x_k)rightarrow g(x)$? If so how to prove it?



Thank you in advance!

  • Why is $g$ well-defined and linear? I cannot see that.
