Some results on ultrametric 2-normed spaces

Abstract

In this paper, we study the ultrametric 2-normed spaces and the ultrametric 2-Banach spaces. In particular, we establish some results on Cauchy sequences in ultrametric 2-normed spaces. Also, we introduce and study the notion of bounded linear 2-functionals on ultrametric 2-Banach spaces and we give some of its properties. On the other hand, the new norm on the ultrametric 2-normed space is constructed. The concepts of closed operators between ultrametric 2-normed spaces and $b$-linear functionals in ultrametric 2-normed spaces are introduced. Finally, a necessary and sufficient condition for a linear operator to be closed in terms of its graph is proved and some results on bounded $b$-linear functionals in ultrametric 2-normed spaces are given.
