As is well known, the isometric isomorphism $(c_0)^* \cong \ell^1$ holds.
Is there an analogous statement for general $L^p$ spaces?
Perhaps a good start would be to wonder about generalizations of sequence spaces like $c_0, c_{00}, c, \dots$. Is is sensible to think of those as special cases of functions converging to $0$ and functions with compact support?
