Let X be a topological space, E a real or complex topological vector space, and C(X, E) the vector space of all bounded continuous E-valued functions on X; when E is the real or complex field this space will be denoted by C(X). The notion of the strict topology on C(X, E) was first introduced by Buck (1) in 1958 in the case of X locally compact and E a locally convex space. In recent years a large number of papers have appeared in the literature concerned with extending the results contained in Buck's paper. In particular, a number of these have considered the problem of characterising the strictly continuous linear functional on C(X, E); see, for example, (2), (3), (4) and (8). In this paper we suppose that X is a completely regular Hausdorff space and that E is a Hausdorff topological vector space with a non-trivial dual E′. The main result established is Theorem 3.2, where we prove a representation theorem for the strictly continuous linear functionals on the subspace Ctb(X, E) which consists of those functions f in C(X, E) such that f(X) is totally bounded.

Convex Spaces

A locally convex Hausdorff topological vector space is said to be quasicomplete if closed bounded subsets of the space are complete, and von Neumann complete if closed totally bounded subsets are complete (equivalently, compact). Clearly quasi-completeness implies von Neumann completeness, and the converse holds in, for example, metrizable locally convex spaces. In this note we obtain a class of locally convex spaces for which the converse fails. Specifically, let X be a completely regular Hausdorff space, and let CC(X) denote the space of continuous real-valued functions on X, endowed with the compact-open topology.

Altman [1] showed that Riesz-Schauder theory remains valid for a completely continuous linear operator on a locally convex Hausdorflf topological vector space over the complex field. In a later paper [2], he proved an analogue of the Aronszajn-Smith result; specifically, he showed that such an operator possesses a proper closed invariant subspace. The purpose of this paper is to show that Ringrose's theory of superdiagonal forms for compact linear operators [3] can be generalized to the case of a completely continuous linear operator on a locally convex Hausdorff topological vector space over the complex field. However, the proof given in [3] requires considerable modification.

By the term “locally convex space”, we mean a locally convex Hausdorff topological vector space (see [17]). We shall denote the algebraic dual of a locally convex space E by E*, and its topological dual by E′. It is convenient to think of the elements of E as being linear functionals on E′, so that E can be identified with a subspace of E′*. The adjoint of a continuous linear map T:E→F will be denoted by T′:F′→E′. If 〈E, F〈 is a dual pair of vector spaces, then we shall denote the corresponding weak, strong and Mackey topologies on E by α(E, F), β(E, F) and μ(E, F) respectively.

In this paper we establish characterizations of the containment of the set {xX: xC,g(x)K}{xX: f (x)0}, where C is a closed convex subset of a locally convex Hausdorff topological vector space, X, K is a closed convex cone in another locally convex Hausdorff topological vector space and g:X Y is a K- convex mapping, in a reverse convex set, define by the proper, lower semicontinuous, convex function. Here, no constraint qualification condition or qualification condition are assumed. The characterizations are often called asymptotic Farkas-type results. The second part of the paper was devoted to variant Asymptotic Farkas-type results where the mapping is a convex mapping with respect to an extended sublinear function. It is also shown that under some closedness conditions, these asymptotic Farkas lemmas go back to non-asymptotic Farkas lemmas or stable Farkas lemmas established recently in the literature. The results can be used to study the optimization

We consider Borel measures on a locally compact Hausdorff space whose values are linear functionals on a locally convex cone. We define integrals for cone-valued functions and verify that continuous linear functionals on certain spaces of continuous cone-valued functions endowed with an inductive limit topology may be represented by such integrals.

AbstractMeasure homology was introduced by Thurston (W. P. Thurston, The geometry and topology of 3-manifolds, mimeographed notes (Princeton University Press, Princeton, NJ, 1979)) in order to compute the simplicial volume of hyperbolic manifolds. Berlanga (R. Berlanga, A topologised measure homology, Glasg. Math. J. 50 (2008), 359–369) endowed measure homology with the structure of a graded, locally convex (possibly non-Hausdorff) topological vector space. In this paper we completely characterize Berlanga's topology on measure homology of CW-complexes, showing in particular that it is Hausdorff. This answers a question posed by Berlanga.

For a system $V$ of weights on a completely regular Hausdorff space $X$ and a Hausdorff topological vector space $E$, let $ CV_b(X,E)$ and $ CV_0(X,E)$ respectively denote the weighted spaces of continuouse $E$-valued functions $f$ on $X$ for which $ (vf)(X)$ is bounded in $E$ and $vf$ vanishes at infinity on $X$ all $ v\in V$. On $CV_b(X,E)(CV_0(X,E))$, consider the weighted topology, which is Hausdorff, linear and has a base of neighbourhoods of 0 consising of all sets of the form: $ N(v,G)=\{f:(vf)(X)\subseteq G\}$, where $v\in V$ and $G$ is a neighbourhood of 0 in $E$. In this paper, we characterize weighted composition operators on weighted spaces for the case when $V$ consists of those weights which are bounded and vanishing at infinity on $X$. These results, in turn, improve and extend some of the recent works of Singh and Singh [10, 12] and Manhas [6] to a non-locally convex setting as well as that of Singh and Manhas [14] and Khan and Thaheem [4] to a larger class of operators.

AbstractLet E be a Hausdorff topological vector space, let K be a nonempty compact convex subset of E and let f, g: K → 2E be upper semicontinuous such that for each x ∈ K, f(x) and g(x) are nonempty compact convex. Let Ω ⊂ 2E be convex and contain all sets of the form x − f(x), y − x + g(x) − f(x), for x, y ∈ K. Suppose p: K × Ω →, R satisfies: (i) for each (x, A) ∈ K × Ω and for ε > 0, there exist a neighborhood U of x in K and an open subset set G in E with A ⊂ G such that for all (y, B) ∈ K ×Ω with y ∈ U and B ⊂ G, | p(y, B) - p(x, A)| < ε, and (ii) for each fixed X ∈ K, p(x, ·) is a convex function on Ω. If p(x, x − f(x)) ≤ p(x, g(x) − f(x)) for all x ∈ K, and if, for each x ∈ K with f(x) ∩ g(x) = ø, there exists y ∈ K with p(x, y − x + g(x) − f(x)) < p(x, x − f(x)), then there exists an x0 ∈ K such that f(x0) ∩ g(x0) ≠ ø. Another coincidence theorem on a nonempty compact convex subset of a Hausdorff locally convex topological vector space is also given.

This note is concerned with the extension to locally convex spaces of a theorem of J. Y. Barry [ 1 ]. The basic assumptions are as follows. E is a separated locally convex topological vector space, henceforth assumed to be barreled. E' is its strong dual. For any subset A of E, we denote by w(A) the closure of A in the σ-(E, E')-topology. See [ 2 ] for further information about locally convex spaces. By a projection we shall mean a continuous linear mapping of E into itself which is idempotent.

Nonsmooth analysis has provided important new mathematical tools for the study of problems in optimization and other areas of analysis [1, 2, 6-12, 28]. The basic building blocks of this subject are local approximations to sets called tangent cones.Definition 1.1. Let E be a real, locally convex, Hausdorff topological vector space (abbreviated l.c.s.). A tangent cone (on E) is a mapping A:2E × E → 2E such that A(C, x) is a (possibly empty) cone for all nonempty C in 2E and x in E.In the sequel, we will say that a tangent cone has a certain property (e.g. “A is closed” or “A is convex“) if A(C, x) has that property for all non-empty sets C and all x in C. (If A(C, x) is empty, it will be counted as having the property trivially.)
