SANCHEZ´ RUIZ (Communicated by Dale Alspach) Abstract. The 1971 articles in which Saxon-Levin and Valdivia indepen- dently proved their Theorem feature two conditions equivalent to dual local completeness. One became Ruess’ property (LC). The other is among new characterizations previously known only as necessary conditions. 1. Introduction A sequence σ = An : n N of absolutely convex subsets of a locally convex space E ( )isabsorbing{ in∈E if} it is increasing and each x E is absorbed by T ∈ some An;thenwedenoteby σ the finest locally convex topology on E that induces the same topology as on eachT A . (Cf. [1], [8].) The topology is defined by T n Tσ the family of those seminorms whose restrictions to the sets An are continuous for the topology induced on An by . In Valdivia’s development of the Saxon-Levin- Valdivia Theorem, he showed thatT = always holds when E ( ) is barrelled T Tσ T ([16], Theorem 5). Ruess [9] defined a space E ( )tohaveproperty (L) if = σ holds for each absorbing sequence σ, and to haveT the weaker property (LC)Tif eachT is compatible with the dual pair (E;E0). Thus Tσ barrelled property (L) property (LC). ⇒ ⇒ Furthermore, every barrelled space has its Mackey topology, and for any Mackey space E, it is clearly true that E has property (L) if and only if E has property (LC). Valdivia explicitly pointed out that [ barrelled property (LC)], and the latter property, according to Ruess (see below), is equivalent⇒ to dual local completeness. The crux of the Saxon-Levin proof was to show that every barrelled space E has the property that any countable-codimensional subspace spanned by a closed absolutely convex subset of E is, itself, closed ([15], 3, Lemma). We will show this property, also, is equivalent to dual local completeness,§ which thus provides an unexpected common footing for both papers. This and other new equivalences unify vital ideas already in book form (e.g., [5], [6], [7], [19], [22]). Every space will be assumed a Hausdorff locally convex space over the scalar field of real or complex numbers; “countable” means “finite or denumerable”.

Ruess ([11], Propositions 2.2, 2.3) asserts without{ proof} that a space ET ( ) hasT property (L) (respectively, (LC)) if T and only if, given any absorbing absolutely convex set A (respectively, any f E∗ ∈ such that f A is continuous), then = A (respectively, f E0).

Suppose E is locally complete and we are given λ `1 and a bounded { n}n ∈ sequence xn n in E. The closed absolutely convex hull A of xn n is a Banach disk.

Conversely,P suppose E is `1-complete and A is a closed disk in E, with y a { n}n Cauchy sequence in the normed space EA. There is an increasing sequence nk k k { k} ⊂ N such that yq yp 2− whenever p; q; k N with p; q nk.Ifλk=2− and k k − k≤ ∈ ≥ xk =2 ynk+1 ynk ,then xk k Ais bounded and n λnxn converges to some x in E.Givenj>k− ,wehave{ } ⊂ P k j k+1 λ x λ x 2− + :::+2− A 2− A: n n− n n ∈ ⊂ n j n<k X≤ X k+1 For k fixed, 2− A is closed in E,and k+1 x λnxn = lim λnxn λnxn 2− A: − j − ∈ n<k n j n<k X X≤ X Therefore as k increases, ynk = yn1 + n<k λnxn tends to yn1 + x in EA,asdoes, then, yn .

Keywords and phrases. Regularity, α-regularity, sequential completeness of locally convex inductive limits. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. Primary 46A13; Secondary 46A30. 1. Introduction. In [2] Kuˇcera proves that an LF-space is regular if and only if it is sequentially complete. In [1] Bosch and Kuˇcera prove the equivalence of regularity and sequential completeness for bornivorously webbed spaces. It is natural to ask: can this result be extended to arbitrary sequentially complete spaces? We give a partial answer to this question in this paper. 2. Definitions.

A topological vector space E is sequentially complete if every Cauchy sequence {xn}⊂E is convergent to an element x ∈ E. An inductive limit indEn is regular, resp. α-regular, if each of its bounded sets is bounded, resp. contained, in some constituent space En. 3. Main results Theorem 3.1.

A sequence space is a vector subspace of the space co of all real (or complex) sequences. A sequence space E with a locally convex topology r is called a K- space if the inclusion map E —* co is continuous, when co is endowed with the product topology (co = II^Li (R)*). A i£-space E with a Frechet (i.e., complete, metrizable and locally convex) topology is called an FK-space; if the topology is a Banach topology, then E is called a BK-space. The following familiar BK-spaces will be important in the sequel: ni, the space of all bounded sequences; c, the space of all convergent sequences; Co, the space of all null sequences; lp, 1 ^ p < °°, the space of all absolutely ^-summable sequences. We shall also consider the space <j> of all finite sequences and the linear span, Wo, of all sequences of zeros and ones; these provide examples of spaces having no FK-topology. A sequence space is solid (respectively monotone) provided that xy £ E whenever x 6 m (respectively m0) and y £ E. For x £ co, we denote by Pn(x) the sequence (xi, x2, . xn, 0, . .) ; if a i£-space (E, r) has the property that Pn(x) —» x in r for each x G E, then we say that (£, r) is an AK-space. We also write WE = \x Ç £: P„.(x) —>x weakly} and ^ = jx Ç E: Pn{x) —>x in r}.

    COMPLETENESS IN QUASI-PSEUDOMETRIC SPACES – A SURVEY S. COBZAS¸ Abstract. The aim of this paper is to discuss the relations between various notions of se- quential completeness and the corresponding notions of completeness by nets or by filters in the setting of quasi-metric spaces. We propose a new definition of right K-Cauchy net in a quasi-metric space for which the corresponding completeness is equivalent to the sequential completeness. In this way we complete some results of R. A. Stoltenberg, Proc. London Math. Soc. 17 (1967), 226–240, and V. Gregori and J. Ferrer, Proc. Lond. Math. Soc., III Ser., 49 (1984), 36. A discussion on nets defined over ordered or pre-ordered directed sets is also included.

Introduction It is well known that completeness is an essential tool in the study of metric spaces, particularly for fixed points results in such spaces. The study of completeness in quasi-metric spaces is considerably more involved, due to the lack of symmetry of the distance – there are several notions of completeness all agreing with the usual one in the metric case (see [18] or [6]). Again these notions are essential in proving fixed point results in quasi-metric spaces as it is shown by some papers on this topic as, for instance, [4], [10], [16], [21] (see also the book [1]). A survey on the relations between completeness and the existence of fixed points in various circumstances is given in [7].

  • 1.2.3 Banach–Steinhaus Theorem Another Fundamental Theorem Of
    16 1 Basic Facts from Functional Analysis and Banach Lattices 1.2.3 Banach{Steinhaus Theorem Another fundamental theorem of functional analysis is the Banach{Steinhaus theorem, or the Uniform Boundedness Principle. It is based on a fundamental topological results known as the Baire Category Theorem. Theorem 1.13. Let X be a complete metric space and let fXngn≥1 be a sequence of closed subsets in X. If Int Xn = ; for any n ≥ 1, then 1 S Int Xn = ;. Equivalently, taking complements, we can state that a count- n=1 able intersection of open dense sets is dense. Remark 1.14. Baire's theorem is often used in the following equivalent form: if X is a complete metric space and fXngn≥1 is a countable family of closed 1 S sets such that Xn = X, then IntXn 6= ; at least for one n. n=1 Chaotic dynamical systems We assume that X is a complete metric space, called the state space. In gen- eral, a dynamical system on X is just a family of states (x(t))t2T parametrized by some parameter t (time). Two main types of dynamical systems occur in applications: those for which the time variable is discrete (like the observation times) and those for which it is continuous. Theories for discrete and continuous dynamical systems are to some extent parallel. In what follows mainly we will be concerned with continuous dynam- ical systems. Also, to fix attention we shall discuss only systems defined for t ≥ 0, that are sometimes called semidynamical systems. Thus by a contin- uous dynamical system we will understand a family of functions (operators) (x(t; ·))t≥0 such that for each t, x(t; ·): X ! X is a continuous function, for each x0 the function t ! x(t; x0) is continuous with x(0; x0) = x0.

    STATIONARY DENSE OPERATORS IN SEQUENTIALLY COMPLETE LOCALLY CONVEX SPACES DANIEL VELINOV, MARKO KOSTIC,´ AND STEVAN PILIPOVIC´ Abstract. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the stationary dense operators and their connection to distribution semigroups and abstract Cauchy problem in sequentially complete spaces. 1. Introduction and Preliminaries In [15] and [12] are given definitions of a distribution semigroups with densely and non densely defined generators. Stationary dense operators in a Banach space E and their connections to densely defined distribution semigroups are introduced and analyzed in [11]. Our main aim in this paper is to consider such operators when E is sequentially complete locally convex space. When we are dealing with a semigroup in a locally convex space, in order to have the existence of the resolvent of an infinitesimal generator A, we suppose that the semigroup is equicontinuous. Moreover for A, we are led to study the behavior of A∞ in D∞(A). If A is stationary dense, the information lost in passing from A in E to A∞ in D∞(A), can be retrieved. Let us emphasize that the interest for the stationarity of A comes out from the solvability of the Cauchy problem u′ = Au, n u(0) = u0, for every u ∈ D(A ) for some n. This is noted in Proposition 2.3. In Theorem 2.12 we have a partial answer to the converse question: Whether the solvability for every x ∈ D(An) implies n-stationarity. Also, we extend the results of [2], [11], [18] and give new examples of stationary dense operators on sequentially complete locally convex spaces.

Counterexamples for two closed graph theorems from Kothe's monograph [5] are given. In Kothe's monograph [5] the following two theorems ([5] x35.10.(1) and (2)) are "proved": (1) Let E (t) be a sequential ly complete local ly convex space, t the Mackey 0 0 topology, and let E ( (E ;E)) becomplete.

    ON LINEAR CONTINUOUS OPERATORS BETWEEN DISTINGUISHED SPACES Cp(X) JERZY KA¸KOL AND ARKADY LEIDERMAN Abstract. As proved in [16], for a Tychonoff space X, a locally convex space Cp(X) is distinguished if and only if X is a ∆-space. If there exists a linear con- tinuous surjective mapping T : Cp(X) → Cp(Y ) and Cp(X) is distinguished, then Cp(Y ) also is distinguished [17]. Firstly, in this paper we explore the following question: Under which con- ditions the operator T : Cp(X) → Cp(Y ) above is open? Secondly, we devote a special attention to concrete distinguished spaces Cp([1, α]), where α is a countable ordinal number. A complete characterization of all Y which admit a linear continuous surjective mapping T : Cp([1, α]) → Cp(Y ) is given. We also observe that for every countable ordinal α all closed linear subspaces of Cp([1, α]) are distinguished, thereby answering an open question posed in [17]. Using some properties of ∆-spaces we prove that a linear continuous sur- jection T : Cp(X) → Ck(X)w, where Ck(X)w denotes the Banach space C(X) endowed with its weak topology, does not exist for every infinite metrizable compact C-space X (in particular, for every infinite compact X ⊂ Rn). 1. Introduction ′ A locally convex space (lcs) E is called distinguished if its strong dual Eβ = (E′, β(E′, E)) is a barrelled space. A. Grothendieck [11] proved that a metrizable ′ lcs is distinguished if and only if Eβ is bornological. Also, if all bounded subsets of ′ the strong dual Eβ of a metrizable lcs are metrizable, then E is distinguished [11].

Introduction In the present paper we use terminology and notations mainly from [1]. Let F be an absolutely convex set in a linear space F1 over the scalar ¯eld of real or complex numbers. Let us consider a linear operator S : F1 ! G called a solution operator, where G is a local convex metric linear space over the scalar ¯eld of real or complex numbers with metric d. Elements f from F are called the problem elements for the solution operator and S(f) are called the solution elements. For f we are required to compute S(f).
