Can these two definitions of norms on a quotient space be shown to be equivalent directly?

34 Views Asked by At

I'm working on some problems related to norms of quotients spaces. There appear to be two definitions for the quotient space norm:

Let $Y$ be a closed subspace of a normed space of $(X,\|\cdot\|)$. Show that the norm $\|\cdot\|_0$ defined on $X/Y$ is given by $$\|\hat{x}\|_0 = \inf_{x\in\hat{x}}\|x\|$$ where $\hat{x} \in X/Y$.

And the one defined using the seminorm (properties referred to in the problem here)

Should I be able to prove that these norms are equivalent so that $p(x) = \inf_{x \in \hat{x}}\|x\|$?

This is related to this question.
