We present the proof of two different versions of the Hahn-Banach Theorem,
closely following @{cite \<open>\S36\<close> "Heuser:1986"}.

subsection \<open>The Hahn-Banach Theorem for vector spaces\<close>
paragraph \<open>Hahn-Banach Theorem.\<close>
text \<open>
Let \<open>F\<close> be a subspace of a real vector space \<open>E\<close>, let \<open>p\<close> be a semi-norm on
\<open>E\<close>, and \<open>f\<close> be a linear form defined on \<open>F\<close> such that \<open>f\<close> is bounded by
\<open>p\<close>, i.e. \<open>\<forall>x \<in> F. f x \<le> p x\<close>. Then \<open>f\<close> can be extended to a linear form \<open>h\<close>
on \<open>E\<close> such that \<open>h\<close> is norm-preserving, i.e. \<open>h\<close> is also bounded by \<open>p\<close>.
\<close>
paragraph \<open>Proof Sketch.\<close>
text \<open>
\<^enum> Define \<open>M\<close> as the set of norm-preserving extensions of \<open>f\<close> to subspaces of
\<open>E\<close>. The linear forms in \<open>M\<close> are ordered by domain extension.
\<^enum> We show that every non-empty chain in \<open>M\<close> has an upper bound in \<open>M\<close>.
\<^enum> With Zorn's Lemma we conclude that there is a maximal function \<open>g\<close> in \<open>M\<close>.
\<^enum> The domain \<open>H\<close> of \<open>g\<close> is the whole space \<open>E\<close>, as shown by classical
contradiction:
\<^item> Assuming \<open>g\<close> is not defined on whole \<open>E\<close>, it can still be extended in a
norm-preserving way to a super-space \<open>H'\<close> of \<open>H\<close>.
\<^item> Thus \<open>g\<close> can not be maximal. Contradiction!
