Approximation of functions and their derivatives by analytic maps on certain Banach spaces

Abstract

Let X be a separable Banach space which admits a separating polynomial; in particular X a separable Hilbert space. Let $f:X \rightarrow R$ be bounded, Lipschitz, and $C^1$ with uniformly continuous derivative. Then for each {\epsilon}>0, there exists an analytic function $g:X \rightarrow R$ with $|g-f|<\epsilon$ and $||g'-f'||<\epsilon$.
