GROTHENDIECK'S PROBLEMS CONCERNING F AND DF{SPACES Stojan Radenovic Zoran Kadelburg For non-exp erts only Received Novemb er 7, 1996; revised March 6, 1997 Abstract. This is an exp ository article devoted to the answers to the ten op en problems from the fundamental pap er [16] of A. Grothendieck, some of whichwere given in the recent years. A signi cant contribution to the development of the theory of lo cally convex spaces lcs , as a part of functional analysis, was given in the fties by a group of French mathematicians L. Schwartz, N. Bourbaki, J. Dieudonn e, A. Grothendieck. The dominant part in their work, concerning this part of functional analysis, was devoted to the so called duality theory.Itwas esp ecially applied to the investigation of metrizable, i.e. Fr echet lcs, which are \nearest" to the normed and Banach spaces [14]. The article [16] of A. Grothendieck \on F and DF spaces" takes a sp ecial place in the theory of lcs. Apart from solving nearly all the problems of L. Schwartz and J. Dieudonn e, p osed in [14], a signi cant class of spaces|\DF-spaces"|was intro duced in it. This class contains a lot of imp ortant functional spaces|we mention just a few, following the pap er [16] itself: m 0 0 m 0 a The spaces E , E , D , D , intro duced byL.Schwartz in [28] for ap- L L p p plication in the theory of distributions; also the space C of continuous functions with compact supp ort. b The spaces of lo cally-analytic functions H K . c A lot of examples of functional spaces de ned by the condition that their elements b elong to at least one normed space from a certain sequence. d Miscellaneous examples of the spaces of linear mappings LE; H , where E is an F-space, and H is a DF-space, with the top ology of b ounded convergence. Investigating the features of F-spaces and the new class of DF-spaces, a lot of new problems arose, some of which remained unsolved. These unsolved questions there are 10 of them are given at the end of the pap er [16]. These questions, together with a lot of others whichwere p osed later in connection with F- and DF-spaces and their generalizations, played in the past 40 years one of the main themes to b e considered by many mathematicians in this eld. The present article is of exp ository character and its goal is to show the actuality of Grothendieck's work. Namely, some of the mentioned ten problems were solved only in the recentyears. 1991 Mathematics Subject Classi cation. 46A04, 46A03. Key words and phrases. F-spaces, DF-spaces.

So the need for intro ducing the class of DF-spaces will b e clear. If E; t is a metrizable lcs, then it has a fundamental sequence of b ounded subsets if and only if it is normed. If B is a sequence of b ounded sets in a metrizable lcs, then there n S 1 exist scalars > 0 so that B is a b ounded subset in the space E . The strong dual n n n n=1 of each metrizable lcs has a fundamental sequence of b ounded subsets and it is metrizable itself if and only if the given space is normed. If E; t is a metrizable lcs, then the so called natural top ology in its bidual the top ological dual of its strong dual space is equal to the strong top ology.For each metrizable lcs the following two equivalent conditions of its strong dual are the main motivation for intro ducing the class of DF-spaces: S 1 0 1 If a union A = A of countably many E ;E-equicontinuous subsets of the n n=1 00 00 0 0 00 space E is E ;E -b ounded, then A is itself a E ;E-equicontinuous subset of E . 0 2 If V is a sequence of closed absolutely convex E ;E-neighb ourho o ds of origin, n T 1 0 such that the intersection V = V is an absorb ent subset in the top ological dual E , n n=1 0 then V is also a E ;E-neighb ourho o d of origin. 1. One of the direct corollaries of the prop erty 1 or the equivalent prop erty 2 is that ^ each separable b ounded subset of the completion E of the metrizable lcs E , is contained in the closure of some b ounded set from E . The problem 1 in the Grothendieck's pap er now reads as follows: ^ Is each bounded subset of the completion E of the metrizable lcs E contained in the closure of some bounded subset of the space E i.e. can the separability condition bedropped in the previous proposition? The rst negative answer to this question was given by J. Dieudonn e [13], using the continuum-hyp othesis. J. Amemiya did that without continuum-hyp othesis in the pap er [3]. See also G. Kothe [21], p. 404. 00 0 0 0 ^ 2. When metrizable lcs 's are concerned, we always have E E =E ; E ;E . In the 00 0 ^ general case, E and E are uncomparable subspaces of the algebraic dual E . Therefore 0 0 it is natural to consider spaces E; t for whichE; E ;E is a barrelled space, i.e. for 00 0 00 which each E ;E -b ounded subset of the bidual E is contained in the closure of some 00 0 t-b ounded subset the closure is taken with resp ect to the top ology E ;E . Such spaces are called distinguished. Grothendieck showed the following: 0 0 3 For each metrizable lcs E , the space H =E ; E ;E is barrelled i.e. E is distin- guished if and only if H is b ornological and if and only if H is quasibarrelled. In connection with this characterization of the strong dual of an F-space, the problem 2was formulated: Is for each F-space E the strong topology of its dual equal to the Mackey topol- 0 0 00 ogy, i.e. is E ;E=E ;E ? Of course, in the case when the F-space E is semi-re exive, the answer to this question is p ositive. But, the negative answer in the general case was given byY.Komura in the pap er [20]; see also G. Kothe [21], pp. 388 and 404. 3. The condition 1 inspired Grothendieck to de ne the class of DF-spaces. Thus, an lcs E; t is a space of typ e DF if it has a fundamental sequence of b ounded subsets and if each strongly b ounded union of countably many t-equicontinuous subsets of its dual is t-equicontinuous. Of course, each normed space is of that kind. So is the strong dual of a ON A. GROTHENDIECK'S PROBLEMS 45 metrizable lcs. It can b e easily proved that each bidual with strong top ology of a DF- space is also a DF-space; S. Dierolf [10] proved that the same is true when the bidual is endowed with the natural top ology. One of the imp ortant prop erties of strong duals of metrizable spaces whichwere proved by Grothendieck is the ab ove mentioned prop erty 3. The question 3 read as follows: Is the mentionedproperty 3 valid for an arbitrary DF-space H ? Particularly, is every quasibarrel ledspace H bornological? The negative answer to this question was given in the same year when Grothendieck's pap er was published. Examples of barrelled even complete spaces which are not b ornological were indep endently constructed byL.Nachbin [25] and T. Shirota [29]. Later Y. Komura [19] constructed an example of a barrelled DF-space which is not b ornological. Unfortu- nately Komura's pro of contained a gap. Examples of quasibarrelled and even barrelled DF-spaces which are not b ornological were given byM.Valdivia [33], [35]. 4. In the theorem 5 of his pap er, Grothendieck proved that each DF-space whose b ounded subsets are metrizable is quasibarrelled. A criterion for an F-space to b e distinguished can b e easily derived from there|it is sucient that the b ounded subsets of its strong dual are metrizable. It was natural to p ose the question of inverse statements, i.e.: 0 Arebounded subsets of the strong dual E metrizable for each distinguishedspace E of the type F? More general ly, if H is a quasibarrel led DF-space, areall of its bounded subsets metrizable? The negative answer to the p osed question was given by I. Amemiya in the ab ove mentioned pap er [3]; see also G. Kothe [21], p. 405. We mention that K.-D. Bierstedt and J. Bonet in [4] showed that for a metrizable lcs E the prop erty that b ounded sets in its strong dual are metrizable is equivalenttothe imp ortant prop erty that E satis es Heinrich's density condition. 5. If the answer to the question no. 4 had b een p ositive, the next question would not have b een p osed|it would have the p ositive answer.

De Grande-De Kimpe The classical Dvoretsky-Rogers theorem states that if E is a Banach space for which l1[E] = (l(E), then E is finite dimensional. This property still holds for any (P (1 p ~) (see [5]). Recently it has been shown (see [11]) that the result remains true when one replaces e’ by any non-nuclear perfect sequence space A, having the normal topology n(A, Ax). (This situation does not contain the (P (1 p -)-case). The question whether the Dvoretsky-Rogers theorem holds for any perfect Banach sequence space A is still open. (A partial, positive answer to this problem, generalizing the é’-case for any p is given in this paper.) It seemed however more convenient to us to tackle the problem from the "locally-convex view-point".

Every Köthe echelon Fréchet space X that is Montel and not isomorphic to a countable product of copies of the scalar eld admits a power bounded continuous linear operator T such that I ¡ T does not have closed range, but the sequence of arithmetic means of the iterates of T converge to 0 uniformly on the bounded sets in X. On the other hand, if X is a Fréchet space which does not have a quotient isomorphic to a nuclear Köthe echelon space with a continuous norm, then the sequence of arithmetic means of the iterates of any continuous linear operator T (for which (1=n)T n converges to 0 on the bounded sets) converges uniformly on the bounded subsets of X, i.e., T is uniformly mean ergodic, if and only if the range of I ¡ T is closed.

    TOPOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF STRICT (LF )-SPACES AND STRONG DUALS OF MONTEL STRICT (LF )-SPACES SAAK GABRIYELYAN Abstract. Following [2], a Tychonoff space X is Ascoli if every compact subset of Ck(X) is equicontinuous. By the classical Ascoli theorem every k- space is Ascoli. We show that a strict (LF )-space E is Ascoli iff E is a Fr´echet ′ space or E = ϕ. We prove that the strong dual Eβ of a Montel strict (LF )- space E is an Ascoli space iff one of the following assertions holds: (i) E is a ′ Fr´echet–Montel space, so Eβ is a sequential non-Fr´echet–Urysohn space, or (ii) ′ ω D E = ϕ, so Eβ = R . Consequently, the space (Ω) of test functions and the space of distributions D′(Ω) are not Ascoli that strengthens results of Shirai [20] and Dudley [5], respectively. 1. Introduction. The class of strict (LF )-spaces was intensively studied in the classic paper of Dieudonn´eand Schwartz [3]. It turns out that many of strict (LF )-spaces, in particular a lot of linear spaces considered in Schwartz’s theory of distributions [18], are not metrizable. Even the simplest ℵ0-dimensional strict (LF )-space ϕ, n the inductive limit of the sequence {R }n∈ω, is not metrizable. Nyikos [16] showed that ϕ is a sequential non-Fr´echet–Urysohn space (all relevant definitions are given in the next section). On the other hand, Shirai [20] proved the space D(Ω) of test functions over an open subset Ω of Rn, which is one of the most famous example of strict (LF )-spaces, is not sequential.

  • Functional Analysis and Optimization
    Functional Analysis and Optimization Kazufumi Ito∗ November 29, 2016 Abstract In this monograph we develop the function space method for optimization problems and operator equations in Banach spaces. Optimization is the one of key components for mathematical modeling of real world problems and the solution method provides an accurate and essential description and validation of the mathematical model. Op- timization problems are encountered frequently in engineering and sciences and have widespread practical applications.In general we optimize an appropriately chosen cost functional subject to constraints. For example, the constraints are in the form of equal- ity constraints and inequality constraints. The problem is casted in a function space and it is important to formulate the problem in a proper function space framework in order to develop the accurate theory and the effective algorithm. Many of the constraints for the optimization are governed by partial differential and functional equations. In order to discuss the existence of optimizers it is essential to develop a comprehensive treatment of the constraints equations. In general the necessary optimality condition is in the form of operator equations. Non-smooth optimization becomes a very basic modeling toll and enlarges and en- hances the applications of the optimization method in general. For example, in the classical variational formulation we analyze the non Newtonian energy functional and nonsmooth friction penalty. For the imaging/signal analysis the sparsity optimization is used by means of L1 and TV regularization. In order to develop an efficient solu- tion method for large scale optimizations it is essential to develop a set of necessary conditions in the equation form rather than the variational inequality.

  • Stability for Periodic Evolution Families of Bounded Linear Operators

The study of asymptotic behavior of solutions of systems with time-varying coefficients is more difficult since, inthis context, the well known spectral criteria (such as those existing in the autonomous case) are no longer valid. In the following, we describe the history of the issue and also we state new results concerning asymptotic behavior of solutions of non- autonomous periodic systems. Let A be a bounded linear operator acting on a Banach space X, x an arbitrary vector in X and let µ be a real parameter. First consider the autonomous system y_(t) = Ay(t); t ≥ 0 (1.1) and the associated inhomogeneous Cauchy Problem { y_(t) = Ay(t) + eiµtx; t ≥ 0 (1.2) y(0) = 0: It is well-known, [30], [6], that the system (1.1) is uniformly exponentially stable (i.e. there exist two positive constants N and ν such that ketAk ≤ Ne−νt) if and 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 42A16; 45A05; 47A10; 47A35; 47D06; 47G10; 93D20.

  • Mackey Continuity of Characteristic Functionals
    Georgian Mathematical Journal Volume 9 (2002), Number 1, 83–112 MACKEY CONTINUITY OF CHARACTERISTIC FUNCTIONALS S. KWAPIEN´ AND V. TARIELADZE Dedicated to N. Vakhania on the occassion of his 70th birthday Abstract. Problems of the Mackey-continuity of characteristic functionals and the localization of linear kernels of Radon probability measures in locally convex spaces are investigated. First the class of spaces is described, for which the continuity takes place. Then it is shown that in a non-complete sigma- compact inner product space, as well as in a non-complete sigma-compact metizable nuclear space, there may exist a Radon probability measure having a non-continuous characteristic functional in the Mackey topology and a linear kernel not contained in the initial space. Similar problems for moment forms and higher order kernels are also touched upon. Finally, a new proof of the result due to Chr. Borell is given, which asserts that any Gaussian Radon measure on an arbitrary Hausdorff locally convex space has the Mackey- continuous characteristic functional. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary: 60B11.

  • 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. Theorem 1. Let E[%\ be a locally convex space with r = n(E, E') (the Mackey CO topology).

  • Structure of Spaces of Germs of Holomorphic Functions
    Publicacions Matem`atiques, Vol 41 (1997), 467–480. STRUCTURE OF SPACES OF GERMS OF HOLOMORPHIC FUNCTIONS N. Van Khue and P. Thien Danh Abstract Let E be a Frechet (resp. Frechet-Hilbert) space. It is shown that E ∈ (Ω) (resp. E ∈ (DN)) if and only if [H(OE )] ∈ (Ω) (resp. [H(OE )] ∈ (DN)). Moreover it is also shown that E ∈ (DN) if and only if Hb(E ) ∈ (DN). In the nuclear case these results were proved by Meise and Vogt [2]. 1. Preliminaries 1.1. Let K be a compact set in a Frechet space E.ByH(K)we denote the space of germs of holomorphic functions on K. This space is equipped with the inductive topology H(K) = lim indH∞(U). U↓K Here for each neighborhood U of K,byH∞(U) we denote the Banach space of bounded holomorphic functions on U with the sup-norm fU = sup{|f(z):z ∈ U}. 1.2. Let E denote the strong dual space of a Frechet space E.A holomorphic function on E is said to be of bounded type if it is bounded on every bounded set in E .ByHb(E ) we denote the metric locally convex space of entire functions of bounded type on E equipped with the topology the convergence on bounded sets in E. For more details concerning holomorphic functions on locally convex spaces we refer to the book of Dineen [1]. 468 N. Van Khue, P. Thien Danh 1.3. Assume the topology of E is defined by an increasing fundamen- {· }∞ tal system of seminorms k k=1.
