I am working on a perturbation h of the identity I on a Banach space X, i.e. h(x) = x – f(x), with f(0)=0.

f is regular enough on X, but I do not know if the regularity holds on a subspace Y of X.

More precisely:

f is C^1_{Lip} and the operator (I – f_x(0))^{-1} exists and it is bounded in L(X), so that the classic conditions for the existence of a local inverse in a neighborhood of x=0 are satisfied. Let this inverse function be h^{-1}: B(0,R_1) \to B(0,R).

Now, the question.

Let Y be a Banach subspace of X, embedded continuously with norm \| \cdot \|_Y in X.

f is Lipschitz in the Y-norm, moreover we have h(Y) \subseteq Y

and if y \in B(0,R_1) \cap Y then h^{-1}(y) \in Y.

We have also that (I – f_x(0))^{-1}|_Y \in L(Y).

Are these conditions sufficient for the continuity of h^{-1}(y)|_Y , (or at least for the boundedness) without assuming that h|_Y in C^1 ?
