Streszczenie
We use the smooth variational principle and a standard renorming to give a short direct proof of the classical Bishop–Phelps–Bollobás theorem on the density of norm-attaining functionals for weakly compactly generated Banach spaces. Then we show that a slight adjustment of a known Preiss–Zajíček differentiability argument provides a simple, useful characterization of individual norms on separable Banach spaces admitting residual sets of norm-attaining functionals in terms of Fréchet differentiability of their dual norms.
