Boundedly Compatible Webs and Strict Mackey Convergence

We look for characterizations of those locally convex spaces that satisfy the strict Mackey convergence condition within the context of spaces with webs. We will say that a locally convex space has a boundedly compatible web if it has a web of absolutely convex sets whose members behave like zero neighborhoods in a metrizable locally convex space. It will be shown that these locally convex spaces satisfy the strict Mackey convergence condition. One consequence of this result will be a characterization of boundedly retractive inductive limits. We will also prove that if E is locally complete and webbed, then the strict Mackey convergence condition is equivalent to E having a boundedly compatible web.     

On convexity properties of ψ-direct sums of Banach spaces

The ψ-direct sum of Banach spaces is strictly convex (respectively, uniformly convex, locally uniformly convex, uniformly convex in every direction) if each of the Banach spaces are strictly convex (respectively, uniformly convex, locally uniformly convex, uniformly convex in every direction) and the corresponding ψ-norm is strictly convex.     

A Frobenius Theorem for Locally Convex Global Analysis

 We prove a Frobenius theorem for Banach space complemented subbundles of the tangent bundle of a manifold modelled on locally convex spaces. The proof is based on an implicit function theorem for maps from locally convex spaces to Banach spaces proved in a recent paper of the author.     

A drop theorem without vector topology

Daneš' drop theorem is extended to bornological vector spaces. An immediate application is to establish Ekeland-type variational principle and its equivalence, Caristi fixed point theorem, in bornological vector spaces. Meanwhile, since every locally convex space becomes a convex bornological vector space when equipped with the canonical von Neumann bornology, Qiu's generalization of Daneš' work to locally convex spaces is recovered.     

Hypercyclic operators on quasi-Mazur spaces

Modifying the method of Ansari, we give some criteria for hypercyclicity of quasi-Mazur spaces. They can be applied to judging hypercyclicity of non-complete and non-metrizable locally convex spaces. For some special locally convex spaces, for example, Köthe (LF)-sequence spaces and countable inductive limits of quasi-Mazur spaces, we investigate their hypercyclicity. As we see, bounded biorthogonal systems play an important role in the construction of Ansari. Moreover, we obtain characteristic conditions respectively for locally convex spaces having bounded sequences with dense linear spans and for locally convex spaces having bounded absorbing sets, which are useful in judging the existence of bounded biorthogonal systems.     

Dual Representations of Convex Sets and Gateaux Differentiability Spaces

The duality of two kinds of representations of convex sets is studied: the tangential representation of a convex body and the representations of its polar or negative polar by means of their weak^* exposed points. The equivalence of the representations is proved and a condition for their validity is obtained for individual sets (the case of arbitrary locally convex space) and for classes of sets (the case of Gâteaux differentiability locally convex space). Properties of Gâteaux differentiability locally convex spaces are studied and some examples of such spaces are given.

The law of large numbers in locally convex spaces

Summary The law of large numbers is extended to random elements taking values in locally convex spaces. The necessary and sufficient conditions for the law are given in a large class of locally convex spaces, vix. normed spaces. This class includes, among others, the test function spaces and the distribution spaces.

Grothendieck space ideals and weak continuity of polynomials on locally convex spaces

We introduce the classes of locally convex spaces with the local Dunford-Pettis property and locally dual Schur spaces. We examine their properties and their relationship to other classes of locally convex spaces. In the class of locally convex spaces with the local Dunford-Pettis property all polynomials are weakly sequentially continuous whereas in the class of locally dual Schur spaces all polynomials are weakly continuous on bounded sets.     

Convolution on distribution spaces characterized by regularization

Locally convex convolutor spaces are studied which consist of those distributions that define a continuous convolution operator mapping from the space of test functions into a given locally convex lattice of measures. The convolutor spaces are endowed with the topology of uniform convergence on bounded sets. Their locally convex structure is characterized via regularization and function-valued seminorms under mild structural assumptions on the space of measures. Many recent generalizations of classical distribution spaces turn out to be special cases of the general convolutor spaces introduced here. Recent topological characterizations of convolutor spaces via regularization are extended and improved. A valuable property of the convolutor spaces in applications is that convolution of distributions inherits continuity properties from those of bilinear convolution mappings between the locally convex lattices of measures.     

Vollständige und B-vollständige topologische Vektorgruppen Graphensätze und Open-Mapping Theorems

We are studying complete and B-complete topological vector groups. These Objects have been introduced by P. Kenderov [6] and D. A. Raikov [11]. They form a category TVG intermediate to the categories of topological Abelian groups and topological vector spaces and are close enough to the last one to give many useful applications to it. We first consider the problem of completion in the most used subcategories of TVG. A special functor allows to play back permanence property questions of completeness in locally convex vector groups to the same questions for locally convex vector spaces. Some examples of complete locally convex vector groups follow. We then unify some differently defined notions of B-completeness and generalize well known theorems concerning B-complete locally convex topological vector spaces to locally convex topological vector groups. Barrelledness concepts introduced in 9 and a special functor constructed in section 6 are used to formulate analogues of the closed graph and open mapping theorem for locally convex vector groups. The remainder of the note is left for applications to locally convex vector spaces. Many theorems about 1^p-sums of normed spaces are proved, as well as the B-completeness of a vast class of locally convex vector spaces including the spaces and of Köthe ([7], §13, No 5,6).

On Functions Whose All Critical Points Are Contained in a Ball

The normal decomposition of operator spaces into inductive scales of locally convex spaces in accordance with the classification of operators by their normal indices is considered. The canonical isomorphisms of operator spaces over Banach space are generalized to operators in locally convex spaces.     

Phelps' lemma, Danes' drop theorem and Ekeland's principle in locally convex spaces

A generalization of Phelps' lemma to locally convex spaces is proven, applying its well-known Banach space version. We show the equivalence of this theorem, Ekeland's principle and Danes' drop theorem in locally convex spaces to their Banach space counterparts and to a Pareto efficiency theorem due to Isac. This solves a problem, concerning the drop theorem, proposed by G. Isac in 1997.

We show that a different formulation of Ekeland's principle in locally convex spaces, using a family of topology generating seminorms as perturbation functions rather than a single (in general discontinuous) Minkowski functional, turns out to be equivalent to the original version.

     

On C‐Suslin spaces

We prove a closed graph theorem for Baire locally convex spaces (for Baire linear topological spaces) in the domain and weakly C‐Suslin locally convex spaces (respectively, for C‐Suslin linear topological spaces) in the range which improves some classic closed graph theorems and other, more recent, related results.     

The injective hull op an operator ideal on locally convex spaces

In his book (3), Pietsch presents the problem of a direct construction of the injective hull of an operator ideal on loca. lly convex spaces. We construct the infective hull of an arbitrary operator ideal on locally convex spaces using the functor, where and B cover the family of all equicontinuous subsets of E'(L is the category of all locally convex spaces). If the operator ideal is bounded, we ob tain its infective hull using seminorm ideals.     

On complemented subspaces of sums and products of Banach spaces

It is proved that there exist complemented subspaces of countable topological products (locally convex direct sums) of Banach spaces which cannot be represented as topological products (locally convex direct sums) of Banach spaces.

     

Thin and thick sets in locally convex spaces

We introduce in this work some normed space notions such as norming, thin and thick sets in general locally convex spaces. We also study some effects of thick sets on the uniform boundedness-like principles in locally convex spaces such as “weak*-bounded sets are strong*-bounded if and only if the space is a Banach–Mackey space”. It is proved that these principles occur under some weaker conditions by means of thick sets. Further, we show that the thickness is a duality invariant, that is, all compatible topologies for some locally convex space have the same thick sets.
