Our aim in this paper, generally stated, is to formulate an abstract concept of the notion of the sum of a numerical series. More particularly, it is a study of the type of sequence space called “sum space”. The idea of sum space arose in connection with two distinct problems.1.1 The Köthe-Toeplitz dual of a sequence space T consists of all sequences t such that st ∈ l1 (absolutely summable sequences) for each s∈T. It is known that if cs or bs is used in place of l1, an analogous theory of duality for sequence spaces can be developed (cf. [2]). What other spaces of sequences can play a rôle analogous to l1? This problem is treated in [6].1.2. Let {xn, fn} be a complete biorthogonal sequence in (X, X*), where X is a locally convex linear topological space and X* is its topological dual space.

Let X be a locally convex linear topological space. A point z in an ultralimit enlargement of X is pre-near-standard if and only it is finite and for every equicontinuous subset S′ of the dual space X′, a point z′ belongs to *S′ ∩ μσ(X′, X) (0) only if z′ (z) is infinitesimal.

The paper aims to develop for sequence spacesEa general concept for reconciling certain results, for example inclusion theorems, concerning generalizations of the Köthe-Toeplitz dualsE×(×∈{α,β})combined with dualities(E,G),G⊂E×, and theSAK-property (weak sectional convergence). TakingEβ:={(yk)∈ω:=𝕜ℕ|(ykxk)∈cs}=:Ecs, wherecsdenotes the set of all summable sequences, as a starting point, then we get a general substitute ofEcsby replacingcsby any locally convex sequence spaceSwith sums∈S′(in particular, a sum space) as defined by Ruckle (1970). This idea provides a dual pair(E,ES)of sequence spaces and gives rise for a generalization of the solid topology and for the investigation of the continuity of quasi-matrix maps relative to topologies of the duality(E,Eβ). That research is the basis for general versions of three types of inclusion theorems: two of them are originally due to Bennett and Kalton (1973) and generalized by the authors (see Boos and Leiger (1993 and 1997)), and the third was done by Große-Erdmann (1992). Finally, the generalizations, carried out in this paper, are justified by four applications with results around different kinds of Köthe-Toeplitz duals and related section properties.

For a given locally convex space, it is always of interest to find conditions for its nuclearity. Well known results of this kind – by now already familiar – involve the use of tensor products, diametral dimension, bilinear forms, generalized sequence spaces and a host of other devices for the characterization of nuclear spaces (see [9]). However, it turns out, these nuclearity criteria are amenable to a particularly simple formulation in the setting of certain sequence spaces; an elegant example is provided by the so-called Grothendieck–Pietsch (GP, for short) criterion for nuclearity of a sequence space (in its normal topology) in terms of the summability of certain numerical sequences.

A general definition for a measure of nonprecompactness for bounded subsets of a locally convex linear topological space is given. Fixed point theorems for condensing multivalued mappings have been proved. These fixed point theorems are further generalizations of Kakutani's fixed point theorems.

Let S be a subset of some linear topological space. The set S is said to be m-convex, m ≧ 2, if and only if for every m-member subset of S, at least one of the line segments determined by these points lies in S. A point x in S is said to be a point of local convexity of S if and only if there is some neighborhood N of x such that if y, z Є N ⌒ S, then [y, z] ⊆ S. If S fails to be locally convex at some point a in S, then q is called a point of local nonconvexity (lnc point) of S.

For the single-valued case the notion of degree has been given recent expression by papers of Dold [5] for the finite dimensional case, and by Leray-Schauder [8] for the locally convex linear topological space. Klee [7] has removed this restriction by use of shrinkable in place of convex neighborhoods with the central role filled by a form of (2.15) below. For set-valued maps a modern formulation is, for instance, to be found in Gorniewicz-Granas [6]. These contributions relate the degree to the Lefschetz number, and the set-valued maps are required to map points into acyclic sets; that is to say, into "swollen points".

A point x in S is called a point of local convexity of S if and only if there is some neighborhood N of x such that if y, z ∈ N⋂ S, then [y, z] ⊆ S. If S fails to be locally convex at some point q in S, then q is called a point of local nonconvexity (lnc point) of S.

The general form of continuous linear functionals on an Orlicz sequence space1ϕ(non-separable and non-locally convex in general) is obtained. It is proved that the spacehϕis anM-ideal in1ϕ.

Theβ-dual of a vector-valued sequence space is defined and studied. We show that if anX-valued sequence spaceEis a BK-space having AK property, then the dual space ofEand itsβ-dual are isometrically isomorphic. We also give characterizations ofβ-dual of vector-valued sequence spaces of Maddoxℓ(X,p),ℓ∞(X,p),c0(X,p), andc(X,p).
