But it was not until late forties and early fifties that the theory of such spaces was formed as a special branch in functional analysis. This was the time when it became clear that a lot of applications, in particular the theory of distributions, need more abstract approach than the classical Banach one. Within the framework of the new categories of topological vector, in particular locally convex, spaces and, a bit later, of ordered topological vector spaces, a lot of special classes of spaces were introduced. The reason was mainly that the three fundamental principles of linear analysis, in particular the uniform boundedness principle and the closed graph and open mapping theorems, needed special types of spaces to serve as domains and/or codomains for respective mappings. Such classes of spaces, e.g. barrelled, quasibarrelled, bornological and many others, proved themselves to be important in connection with other problems, too, such as problems in duality theory, reflexivity, tensor products and so on. One of the important questions concerning these classes of spaces was their stability in connection with subspaces and quotients. While most of them (but not all) are stable with respect to quotients by closed subspaces, few are stable with respect to arbitrary, even closed subspaces. So it was natural to search for various sufficient conditions which would imply stabilities of such kind. First results of that type were obtained in early fifties, but investigations have continued and there are a lot of interesting recent results. Some questions even in pure Banach setting are still open, e.g. “is there a Banach space of infinite dimension such that all of its dense subspaces are barrelled” or “does every infinite-dimensional Banach space have a separable quotient”? This book is divided into four chapters. The first one contains a very brief introduction to the theory of topological vector spaces. The intention was to give only the fundamental ideas of the theory, particularly those which will be used in the rest of the book. Some important theorems are stated without proofs, and the reader is referred to the classical books covering these problems. But we hope that this will be enough to get prepared for reading the remaining three chapters. Especially, at least formally speaking, the prerequisites for the whole book are just the basics of linear algebra and general topology, although, of course, the acquaintance with classical functional analysis is desirable. 2 Introduction Chapter II treats thoroughly the problems of subspaces and quotients for various classes of topological vector, in particular locally convex, spaces. Also, a kind of a converse question, the so-called three-space-problem, is investigated. Some of the results of the authors are included in this and the following chapter. In many applications of functional analysis, besides linear and topological structures, also the structure of order is often important. So a special theory of ordered vector spaces, and in particular ordered topological vector spaces, has been developed. Our third chapter treats the basics of this theory and in particular those concepts which are close to the ones described in the first part of the book. It is shown that the richer structure enables more positive results than in the category of vector spaces without order. There are a lot of problems and streams of investigation which are actual nowadays in the theory of topological vector spaces. We chose some of them and included as a supplement in the chapter IV. We hope that this will help to get an idea in what directions the theory may be developed and, maybe, some of the readers will try to do something on their own in this field. A brief list of open questions which is given at the end might help. Although the list of references is rather long, it is very far from being complete, even when the special topics of this book are concerned. We mentioned just those titles which we referred to directly and, with a few exceptions, we didn’t mention articles which are already included in existing monographs. We are very grateful to the Institute of Mathematics of the University of Novi Sad for publishing this monograph. Beograd, October 1996 Authors I. TOPOLOGICAL VECTOR SPACES 1.1. SOME PROPERTIES OF SUBSETS OF VECTOR SPACES All vector space in this book are supposed to be defined over the fixed field K, which is either the field R of real or the field C of complex numbers. Only in the third chapter just real scalars are used. In this paragraph we shall describe some properties of subsets of vector spaces which are important in the theory of topological and ordered vector spaces. Let E be a vector space (over the field K) and let A be its subset. We say that A is: 1± circled if ¸A ½ A for each ¸ 2 K for which j¸j 6 1; 2± convex if ¸x + (1 ¡ ¸)y 2 A for each x; y 2 A and each ¸ 2 K, 0 6 ¸ 6 1; 3± absolutely convex if ¸x + ¹y 2 A for each x; y 2 A and each ¸; ¹ 2 K for which j¸j + j¹j 6 1. It is clear that the intersection of an arbitrary family of (absolutely) convex subsets is again an (absolutely) convex set. The (absolutely) convex cover of the set A ½ E is the intersection of all (absolutely) convex sets containig A; we shall denote it by co A (resp. ΓA). If (Ai), Si 2 I is a familyS of subsets of E , we shall write coi Ai (resp. ΓiAi ) instead of co( i Ai) (resp. Γ( i Ai)). Pn Proposition 1.1. co A is the set of all elements of the form ¸ixi for 1 Pn Pn ¸i > 0, ¸i = 1, xi 2 A. ΓA is the set of all elements of the form ¸ixi for 1 1 Pn ¸i 2 K, j¸ij 6 1, xi 2 A. 1 Proof. We shall prove the assertion for the convex cover; for the absolutely convex cover the proof is similar. It can be checked directly that the elements of the given form create a set which is convex and contains A. Let us show that, conversely, these elements belong to each convex set which contains A. nP¡1 Suppose that the last assertion is proved for each sum of the form ¸ixi . 1 Pn nP¡1 Let ¹ixi be a combination of the given form and let ¹i = ¹ > 0 (for ¹ = 0 1 1 4 I. Topological vector spaces n¡1 P ¹i the assertion is trivial). By the inductive hypothesis, y = xi 2 co A, and so 1 ¹ Pn ¹y + (1 ¡ ¹)xn = ¹ixi 2 co A since 0 < ¹ 6 1. 1 By the circled cover of a set A ½ E we understand the intersection of all circled subsets of E which contain A. Proposition 1.2. The absolutely convex cover of a subset is the convex cover of its circled cover. A set is absolutely convex if and only if it is convex and circled. The circled cover of the convex cover of a set need not be convex. Proof. Since, obviously, each absolutely convex set is circled, it is enough to prove that the convex cover of a circled set A is absolutely convex. According to Proposition 1.1, we have co A ½ ΓA. Conversely, let ¸i 6= 0 from K be given, such Pn Pn Pn that j¸ij 6 1 and let xi 2 A. Denote ¹i = (¸i=j¸ij) j¸ij and ºi = j¸ij= j¸ij. 1 1 1 Pn Pn Then each x = j¸ijxi 2 ΓA can be written in the form x = ºi¹ixi , where 1 1 Pn ºi = 1, ºi > 0 and j¹ij 6 1, ¹ixi 2 A, so that x 2 co A. Thus ΓA ½ co A. 1 Let A = f(0; 0); (1; 0); (1; 1)g, treated as a subset either of R2 or C2 . It is easy to check that the circled cover of the set co A is not convex. ± Proposition 1.3. 1 If A1 , ::: , An are (absolutely) convex sets and ¸1 , ::: , ¸n 2 K, then ¸1A1 + ¢ ¢ ¢ + ¸nAn is an (absolutely) convex set.

  • An Abstract Algebraic–Topological Approach to the Notions of a First
    An abstract algebraic{topological approach to the notions of a ¯rst and a second dual space I H. Poppe, R. Bartsch 1 Introduction By IR and C= we denote the reals and the complex numbers respectively and by IK we mean IR or C= . Now let (X; jj ¢ jj) be a normed IK{vector space and X0 := ff : X ! IKj f linear and continuousg the (¯rst) dual space (dual) of X. Hence X0 consists of functions which at the same time are an algebraic homomorphism (a linear map) and a topological homomorphism (a continuous map). By the usual operatornorm, (X0; jj ¢ jj) again becomes a normed space (even a Banach{space) meaning that X and X0 belong to the same class of spaces. Hence at once we can construct the second dual space (bidual) X00 by: X00 := ((X; jj ¢ jj)0; jj ¢ jj)0. Then the canonical map J : X ! X00 is de¯ned via the evaluation map(1) ! : X £ IKX !

  • Quantum Duality, Unbounded Operators, And
    JOURNAL OF MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS 51, 063511 ͑2010͒ Quantum duality, unbounded operators, and inductive limits ͒ Anar Dosia Middle East Technical University Northern Cyprus Campus, Guzelyurt, KKTC, Mersin 10, Turkey ͑Received 20 October 2009; accepted 7 April 2010; published online 14 June 2010͒ In this paper, we investigate the inductive limits of quantum normed ͑or operator͒ spaces. This construction allows us to treat the space of all noncommutative con- tinuous functions over a quantum domain as a quantum ͑or local operator͒ space of all matrix continuous linear operators equipped with S-quantum topology. In par- ticular, we classify all quantizations of the polynormed topologies compatible with the given duality proposing a noncommutative Arens–Mackey theorem. Further, the inductive limits of operator spaces are used to introduce locally compact and lo- cally trace class unbounded operators on a quantum domain and prove the dual realization theorem for an abstract quantum space. © 2010 American Institute of Physics. ͓doi:10.1063/1.3419771͔ I. INTRODUCTION The operator analogs of locally convex spaces have been started to develop in Ref. 14 by Effros and Webster. The central goal of this direction is to create a theory of quantum polynormed spaces or quantum spaces, which should reflect the “locally convex space chapters” of quantum functional analysis. This theory has been created as the basic language of quantum physics. To have a comprehensive mathematical model of quantum physics, it is necessary to consider the linear spaces of unbounded Hilbert space operators or “noncommutative variable spaces.”19 This is the mathematical background of Heisenberg’s “matrix mechanics.” The quantizations of a variable space have provided functional analysis with the new constructions, methods, and problems.22 Being a new and modern branch of functional analysis, quantum functional analysis can be divided into the normed13,20 and polynormed ͑or locally convex͒ topics,14,25 as in the classical theory.

  • On Hereditary Reflexivity of Topological Vector Spaces

  • Spectral Measures in Locally Convex Algebras by Helmut H
    SPECTRAL MEASURES IN LOCALLY CONVEX ALGEBRAS BY HELMUT H. SCHAEFER The University of Michigan, U.S.A.Q) Introduction The central subject of classical spectral theory has been the spectral representation of self-adjoint and normal operators in Hilbert space; after Hilbert had given a complete treatment of the bounded case, the spectra] theory of unbounded self-adjoint and normal operators was developed by yon Neumann and others. (An excellent account can be found in [23].) Abstractions of algebras of Hermitian and normal operators were considered by various authors, notably Stone [22] who characterized such algebras as algebras of conti- nuous functions on a compact (Hausdorff) space. Investigations by Freudenthal [9] and Nakano [15] (especially papers 1 and 2), also leading to spectral theories, went in a different direction. Generalizations of unitary operators to reflexive Banach spaces were considered by Lorch [13]; Lorch also developed an operational calculus for those operators in reflexive Banach spaces that can be represented by a spectral measure [12]. (Taylor [24] developed such a calculus for closed operators on a Banach space whose spectrum does not cover the plane, but necessarily restricted to functions locally holomorphic on the spectrum. There are some recent results in this direction for operators on a locally convex space [26], [16].) The most extensive work on bounded and unbounded operators in a Banach space is due to Dunford, Schwartz, Bade and others (for a detailed bibliography, see [6] and [8]). Dunford considers operators that have a countably additive resolution of the identity, but may differ from a spectral operator (in the sense of Definition 4, Section 4 of this paper) by a quasi-nilpotent.

  • A General Form of Gelfand-Kazhdan Criterion
    A GENERAL FORM OF GELFAND-KAZHDAN CRITERION BINYONG SUN AND CHEN-BO ZHU Abstract. We formalize the notion of matrix coefficients for distributional vectors in a representation of a real reductive group, which consist of generalized functions on the group. As an application, we state and prove a Gelfand-Kazhdan criterion for a real reductive group in very general settings. 1. Tempered generalized functions and Casselman-Wallach representations In this section, we review some basic terminologies in representation theory, which are necessary for this article. The two main ones are tempered generalized functions and Casselman-Wallach representations. We refer the readers to [W1, W2] as general references. Let G be a real reductive Lie group, by which we mean that (a) the Lie algebra g of G is reductive; (b) G has finitely many connected components; and (c) the connected Lie subgroup of G with Lie algebra [g, g] has a finite center. We say that a (complex valued) function f on G is of moderate growth if there is a continuous group homomorphism ρ : G → GLn(C), for some n ≥ 1, such that t t |f(x)| ≤ tr(ρ(x) ρ(x)) + tr(ρ(x−1) ρ(x−1)), x ∈ G. Here “¯” stands for the complex conjugation, and “ t” the transpose, of a matrix. ∞ arXiv:0903.1409v6 [math.RT] 25 Jan 2011 A smooth function f ∈ C (G) is said to be tempered if Xf has moderate growth for all X in the universal enveloping algebra U(gC). Here and as usual, gC is the complexification of g, and U(gC) is identified with the space of all left invariant differential operators on G.

The main object of this paper is to answer some problems posed by Dieudonné in his paper Denumerability conditions in locally convex vector spaces [l]. His two main results are as follows: Proposition 1. If Eis a barrelled space on which there is a countable fundamental system of convex compact subsets, [Definition 1.2] then it is the strong dual of a Fréchet-Montel Space. Proposition 2. If E is either bornological or barrelled, and if there is a countable fundamental system of compact subsets, then E is dense in the strong dual of a Fréchet-Montel Space. Two questions raised by Dieudonné in connection with these results are: (a) If E is either bornological or barrelled then it is certainly quasi- barrelled [l, Chapter 3, §2, Example 12]. Can one substitute this weaker condition on E in Proposition 2? (b) Is there is an example of a quasi-barrelled space which is neither barrelled nor bornological? We shall show that the answer to (a) is "Yes," and that the answer to (b) is also "Yes," so that the generalization is in fact a real one.

  • COUNTABLE-CODIMENSIONAL SUBSPACES of LOCALLY CONVEX SPACES by J
    COUNTABLE-CODIMENSIONAL SUBSPACES OF LOCALLY CONVEX SPACES by J. H. WEBB (Received 9th December 1971) A barrel in a locally convex Hausdorff space E[x] is a closed absolutely convex absorbent set. A a-barrel is a barrel which is expressible as a countable intersection of closed absolutely convex neighbourhoods. A space is said to be barrelled {countably barrelled) if every barrel (a-barrel) is a neighbourhood, and quasi-barrelled (countably quasi-barrelled) if every bornivorous barrel (ff-barrel) is a neighbourhood. The study of countably barrelled and countably quasi-barrelled spaces was initiated by Husain (2). It has recently been shown that a subspace of countable codimension of a barrelled space is barrelled ((4), (6)), and that a subspace of finite codimension of a quasi-barrelled space is quasi-barrelled (5). It is the object of this paper to show how these results may be extended to countably barrelled and countably quasi-barrelled spaces. It is known that these properties are not preserved under passage to arbitrary closed subspaces (3). Theorem 6 shows that a subspace of countable codimension of a countably barrelled space is countably barrelled. Let {£„} be an expanding sequence of subspaces of E whose union is E. 00 Then £' s f] E'n, and the reverse inclusion holds as well (1) if either (i) E'\o(E', E)~\ is sequentially complete or (ii) E'[fi(E', £)] is sequentially complete, and every bounded subset of E is contained in some En.

We prove that Grothendieck/Köthe’s original nondistinguished Fréchet space serves the same purpose. In- deed, a Fréchet space is distinguished if and only if its strong dual has countable tightness, a corollary to the fact that a (DF)-space is quasibarrelled if and only if its tightness is countable. This answers a Cas- cales/Kakol/Saxon ˛ question and leads to a rich supply of (DF)-spaces whose weak duals are quasi-Suslin but not K-analytic, including the spaces Cc(κ) for κ a cardinal of uncountable cofinality. Our level of gen- erality rises above (DF)- or even dual metric spaces to Cascales/Orihuela’s class G. The small cardinals b and d invite a novel analysis of the Grothendieck/Köthe example, and are useful throughout. © 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
