Abstract

We consider a system of so-called Hilbert compacts K(H) in a Hilbert space H; those Hilbert compacts admit a two-sided estimate by compact ellipsoids in H. For functionals in H, we introduce the notion of a compact extremum achieved at a certain base with respect to the imbedding in K(H). An example of the K-extremum of a variational functional in the Sobolev space W 12 is considered.
