Let {Ui, Uij} be an inductive system of normed linear spaces Ui and continuous linear maps uij; Uj → Ui. (We write j ≺ i if uij: Uj → Ui.) An inductive limit of the system with respect to a class of spaces A in and maps f in is a space Uu in Uu and a system ui → Uu of maps in such that (i) whenever j ≺ i, and that (ii) if A is any space in and fi: Ui → A is any system of maps in for which then there is a unique map f: Uu → A in such that fi = fo ui for each i. If is the class of all vector spaces and is the class of linear maps, we obtain the algebraic inductive limit, which we denote simply by U. The usual choice is to take to be the class of locally convex spaces and the class of continuous linear maps; the inductive limit UL then always exists [1, § 16 C]. If is again the continuous linear mappings but contains only normed spaces, the corresponding inductive limit UN may not always exist. However, if in addition we require that contains just contractions (norm-decreasing linear mappings), then an inductive limit Uc will exist if every uij is a contraction [2]. We shall give a condition under which these limits coincide (as far as possible), and consider the corresponding condition for projective limits.

If A and B are locally convex topological vector spaces, and B has certain additional structure, then the space L(A, B) of all continuous linear mappings of A into B is characterized, within isomorphism, as the inductive limit of a family of spaces, whose elements are functions, or measures. The isomorphism is topological if L(A, B) is given a particular topology, defined in terms of the seminorms which define the topologies of A and B. The additional structure on B enables L(A, B) to be constructed, using the duals of the normed spaces obtained by giving A the topology of each of its seminorms separately.

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.

AbstractThe aim of this note is to investigate the structure of general surjectivity problem for a continuous linear map between locally convex spaces. We shall do so by using the method introduced in Yamamuro (1980). Its basic notion is that of calibrations which has been introduced in Yamamuro (1975), studied in detail in Yamamuro (1979) and appliced to several problems in Yamamuro (1978) and Yamamuro (1979a).

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.

In the usual definition of an inductive limit of locally convex spaces, one is given a linear space E, a family (Eα) of locally convex spaces and a set (iα) of linear maps from Eα into E. Garling in [2] studies an extension of this, looking at absolutely convex subsets Sα of Eα and restrictions jα of iα to such sets. If, in the definition of Garling [2, p. 3], each Sα is instead a balanced semiconvex set, then the finest linear (not necessarily locally convex) topology on E for which the maps ja are continuous, will be referred to as the generalized *-inductive limit topology of the semiconvex sets. This topology is our object of study in the present paper; we find applications in the closed graph theorem.

In the general theory of locally convex spaces, the idea of inductive limit is pervasive, with quotient spaces and the less obvious notion of direct sum being among the instances. Bornological spaces provide another important example. As is well known (cf. [7]), a Hausdorff locally convex space E is bornological if, and only if, E is an inductive limit of normed vector spaces. Going even further in this direction, a complete Hausdorff bornological space is an inductive limit of Banach spaces.

Homological spaces were defined by Hogbe-Nlend in 1971 and pseudo-topological spaces by Fischer in 1959. In this paper properties of bornological pseudo-topological vector spaces are investigated. A characterization of such spaces is obtained and it is shown that quotient spaces and direct sums o f boruological pseudo-topological vector spaces are bornological. Every bornological locally convex pseudo-topological vector space is shown to be the inductive limit in the category of pseudo-topological vector spaces of a family of locally convex topological vector spaces.

If Z and E are Hausdorff locally convex spaces (LCS) then by Lb(Z, E) we mean the space of continuous linear maps from Z to E endowed with the topology of uniform convergence on the bounded subsets of Z. The dual Lb(Z, E)′ will always carry the topology of uniform convergence on the bounded subsets of Lb(Z, E). If K(Z, E) is a linear subspace of L(Z, E) then Kb(Z, E) will be used to denote K(Z, E) with the relative topology and Kb(Z, E)″ will mean the dual of Kb(Z, E)′ with the natural topology of uniform convergence on the equicontinuous subsets of Kb(Z, E)′. If Z and E are Banach spaces these provide, in each instance, the usual norm topologies.

Let X and Y be metric spaces and C(X, Y) be the space of all continuous functions from X to Y. If X is a locally connected space, the compact-open topology on C(X, Y) is weaker than the Attouch-Wets topology on C(X, Y). The result is applied on the space of continuous linear functions. Let X be a locally convex topological linear space metrisable with an invariant metric and X* be a continuous dual. X is normable if and only if the strong topology on X* and the Attouch-Wets topology coincide.

We introduce new concepts of functional analysis: Hausdorff spectrum and Hausdorff limit or H-limit of Hausdorff spectrum of locally convex spaces. Particular cases of regular H-limit are projective and inductive limits of separated locally convex spaces. The class of H-spaces contains Frechet spaces and is stable under forming countable inductive and projective limits, closed subspaces and quotient spaces. Moreover, for H-space an unproved variant of the closed graph theorem holds true. Homological methods are used for proving of theorems of vanishing at zero for first derivative of Hausdorff limit functor: Haus1(X)=0.
