Abstract

We study the set of non-norm-attaining functionals on a Banach space, giving a sufficient condition for the density of this set. We also find a large class of Banach spaces for which the set of norm-attaining functionals is (dense-) lineable. In addition, among other results, we provide a new proof of the fact that every real Banach space can be equivalently renormed so that the set of non-norm-attaining functionals is non-dense.
