Existence of hypercyclic polynomials on complex Fréchet spaces

We show that every complex separable infinite dimensional Fréchet space admits hypercyclic polynomials of any degree. This result complements the analogous one for the linear case, due to Ansari, Bernal, Bonet and Peris.     

Spaces of N-homogeneous polynomials between Fréchet spaces

Properties of the Nachbin-ported topology on spaces of N-homogeneous polynomials between Fréchet spaces are investigated by applying results on derived functors.     

Almost periodicity in Fréchet spaces

In this paper we deal with almost periodic functions with values in a Fréchet space. We apply obtained results to prove the existence of solutions of the initial value problem as well as the Volterra integral equation in this class of functions. We also introduce and investigate asymptotically almost periodic functions with values in a Fréchet space.     

Fréchet versus strongly Fréchet

We construct under [CH] a Tychonoff pseudocompact Fréchet space and a countably compact Hausdorff Fréchet space which are both not strongly Fréchet.     

Tightness and distinguished Fréchet spaces

Valdivia invented a nondistinguished Fréchet space whose weak bidual is quasi-Suslin but not K-analytic. We prove that Grothendieck/Köthe's original nondistinguished Fréchet space serves the same purpose. Indeed, 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 Cascales/K?kol/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 generality 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.     

Workshop lecture on products of Fréchet spaces

The general question, “When is the product of Fréchet spaces Fréchet?” really depends on the questions of when a product of α₄ Fréchet spaces (also known as strongly Fréchet or countably bisequential spaces) is α₄, and when it is Fréchet. Two subclasses of the class of strongly Fréchet spaces shed much light on these questions. These are the class of α₃ Fréchet spaces and its subclass of ℵ₀-bisequential spaces. The latter is closed under countable products, the former not even under finite products. A number of fundamental results and open problems are recalled, some further highlighting the difference between being α₃ and Fréchet and being ℵ₀-bisequential.     

Series expansions in Fréchet spaces and their duals, construction of Fréchet frames

Frames for Fréchet spaces X_F with respect to Fréchet sequence spaces Θ_F are studied, and conditions implying series expansions in X_F and are determined. If is a Θ₀-frame for X₀ and Θ_F (resp. X_F) is given, we construct a sequence {X_s}_s∈N0, X_s⊂X_s−1, s∈N, (resp. {Θ_s}_s∈N0, Θ_s⊂Θ_s−1, s∈N), so that is a pre-F-frame or F-frame for X_F with respect to Θ_F under different assumptions given on X₀, Θ₀ and Θ_F (resp. X_F).     

Continuity of mappings between Fréchet spaces

For all linear and many nonlinear operators between Fréchet spaces, several continuity results are established. Especially, a new closed graph theorem is given.     

Quasi-reflexive Fréchet spaces and mean ergodicity

We characterize quasi-reflexive Fréchet spaces with a basis in terms of the properties of this basis. As a consequence we prove that a Fréchet space with a basis is quasi-reflexive of order one if and only if for every power bounded operator T, either T or T^′ is mean ergodic.     

An inverse function theorem in Fréchet spaces

I present an inverse function theorem for differentiable maps between Fréchet spaces which contains the classical theorem of Nash and Moser as a particular case. In contrast to the latter, the proof does not rely on the Newton iteration procedure, but on Lebesgue's dominated convergence theorem and Ekeland's variational principle. As a consequence, the assumptions are substantially weakened: the map F to be inverted is not required to be C², or even C¹, or even Fréchet-differentiable.     

Hypercyclic convolution operators on Fréchet spaces of analytic functions

A result of Godefroy and Shapiro states that the convolution operators on the space of entire functions on Cn, which are not multiples of identity, are hypercyclic. Analogues of this result have appeared for some spaces of holomorphic functions on a Banach space. In this work, we define the space holomorphic functions associated to a sequence of spaces of polynomials and determine conditions on this sequence that assure hypercyclicity of convolution operators. Some known results come out as particular cases of this setting. We also consider holomorphic functions associated to minimal ideals of polynomials and to polynomials of the Schatten-von Neumann class.     

Shrinking and boundedly complete Schauder frames in Fréchet spaces

We study Schauder frames in Fréchet spaces and their duals, as well as perturbation results. We define shrinking and boundedly complete Schauder frames on a locally convex space, study the duality of these two concepts and their relation with the reflexivity of the space. We characterize when an unconditional Schauder frame is shrinking or boundedly complete in terms of properties of the space. Several examples of concrete Schauder frames in function spaces are also presented.     

Examples of non-archimedean Fréchet spaces without nuclear Köthe quotients

Let K be a spherically complete non-archimedean valued field. We prove that the dual space l_∞ of the Banach space c₀ has a total strongly non-norming subspace M. Using this subspace M we construct a non-normable Fréchet space F of countable type with a continuous norm such that its strong dual is a strict LB-space. Next we show that F has no nuclear Köthe quotient.     

Fixed point properties for semigroup of nonexpansive mappings on Fréchet spaces

In this paper, we shall establish a fixed point property on Fréchet spaces for left reversible semitopological semigroups generalizing some classical results.     

Projectively bounded Fréchet measures

A scalar valued set function on a Cartesian product of -algebras is a Fréchet measure if it is a scalar measure independently in each coordinate. A basic question is considered: is it possible to construct products of Fréchet measures that are analogous to product measures in the classical theory? A Fréchet measure is said to be projectively bounded if it satisfies a Grothendieck type inequality. It is shown that feasibility of products of Fréchet measures is linked to the projective boundedness property. All Fréchet measures in a two dimensional framework are projectively bounded, while there exist Fréchet measures in dimensions greater than two that are projectively unbounded. A basic problem is considered: when is a Fréchet measure projectively bounded? Some characterizations are stated. Applications to harmonic and stochastic analysis are given.

     

Chaotic polynomials on Banach spaces

We show the existence of chaotic (in the sense of Devaney) polynomials on Banach spaces of q-summable sequences. Such polynomials P consist of composition of the backward shift with a certain fixed polynomial p of one complex variable on each coordinate. In general we also prove that P is chaotic in the sense of Auslander and Yorke if and only if 0 belongs to the Julia set of p.     

The density condition and distinguishedness for weighted Fréchet spaces of holomorphic functions

We consider weighted Fréchet spaces of holomorphic functions which are defined as countable intersections of weighted Banach spaces of type H^∞. We study when these spaces have Stefan Heinrich's density condition and when they are distinguished.     

Topological structure of solution sets for impulsive differential inclusions in Fréchet spaces

In this paper, we consider the existence of solutions as well as the topological and geometric structure of solution sets for first-order impulsive differential inclusions in some Fréchet spaces. Both the initial and terminal problems are considered. Using ingredients from topology and homology, the topological structures of solution sets (closedness and compactness) as well as some geometric properties (contractibility, acyclicity, AR and R_δ) are investigated. Some of our existence results are obtained via the method of taking the inverse system limit on noncompact intervals.     

Fixed point theory for admissible multimaps defined on closed subsets of Fréchet spaces

This paper presents new fixed point results for a general class of maps defined on Fréchet spaces. Our results in particular apply to Kakutani, acyclic, O'Neill, approximable, admissible with respect to Gorniewicz and maps.
