The open mapping lemma says: if a bounded linear map between Banach spaces satisfies , then contains a (possibly smaller) ball. Given , repeatedly choose corrections whose residuals shrink geometrically; completeness makes converge and maps it to . Baire category applied to supplies the closure hypothesis for a surjective map. This proves the Open mapping theorem.
