Hypocontinuity
In mathematics, a hypocontinuous is a condition on bilinear maps of topological vector spaces that is weaker than continuity but stronger than separate continuity. Many important bilinear maps that are not continuous are, in fact, hypocontinuous. Definition If X, Y and Z are topological vector spaces then a bilinear map \beta: X\times Y\to Z is called ''hypocontinuous'' if the following two conditions hold: * for every bounded set A\subseteq X the set of linear maps \ is an equicontinuous subset of Hom(Y,Z), and * for every bounded set B\subseteq Y the set of linear maps \ is an equicontinuous subset of Hom(X,Z). Sufficient conditions Theorem: Let ''X'' and ''Y'' be barreled spaces and let ''Z'' be a locally convex space. Then every separately continuous bilinear map of X \times Y into ''Z'' is hypocontinuous. Examples * If ''X'' is a Hausdorff locally convex barreled space In functional analysis and related areas of mathematics, a barrelled space (also written barreled spac ...

Bilinear Map
In mathematics, a bilinear map is a function combining elements of two vector spaces to yield an element of a third vector space, and is linear in each of its arguments. Matrix multiplication is an example. Definition Vector spaces Let V, W and X be three vector spaces over the same base field F. A bilinear map is a function B : V \times W \to X such that for all w \in W, the map B_w v \mapsto B(v, w) is a linear map from V to X, and for all v \in V, the map B_v w \mapsto B(v, w) is a linear map from W to X. In other words, when we hold the first entry of the bilinear map fixed while letting the second entry vary, the result is a linear operator, and similarly for when we hold the second entry fixed. Such a map B satisfies the following properties. * For any \lambda \in F, B(\lambda v,w) = B(v, \lambda w) = \lambda B(v, w). * The map B is additive in both components: if v_1, v_2 \in V and w_1, w_2 \in W, then B(v_1 + v_2, w) = B(v_1, w) + B(v_2, w) and B(v, w_1 + w_2) = B(v ...

Topological Vector Space
In mathematics, a topological vector space (also called a linear topological space and commonly abbreviated TVS or t.v.s.) is one of the basic structures investigated in functional analysis. A topological vector space is a vector space that is also a topological space with the property that the vector space operations (vector addition and scalar multiplication) are also Continuous function, continuous functions. Such a topology is called a and every topological vector space has a Uniform space, uniform topological structure, allowing a notion of uniform convergence and Complete topological vector space, completeness. Some authors also require that the space is a Hausdorff space (although this article does not). One of the most widely studied categories of TVSs are locally convex topological vector spaces. This article focuses on TVSs that are not necessarily locally convex. Banach spaces, Hilbert spaces and Sobolev spaces are other well-known examples of TVSs. Many topological vec ...

Bounded Set (topological Vector Space)
In functional analysis and related areas of mathematics, a set in a topological vector space is called bounded or von Neumann bounded, if every neighborhood of the zero vector can be ''inflated'' to include the set. A set that is not bounded is called unbounded. Bounded sets are a natural way to define locally convex polar topologies on the vector spaces in a dual pair, as the polar set of a bounded set is an absolutely convex and absorbing set. The concept was first introduced by John von Neumann and Andrey Kolmogorov in 1935. Definition Suppose X is a topological vector space (TVS) over a field \mathbb. A subset B of X is called or just in X if any of the following equivalent conditions are satisfied: : For every neighborhood V of the origin there exists a real r > 0 such that B \subseteq s VFor any set A and scalar s, the notation s A is denotes the set s A := \. for all scalars s satisfying , s, \geq r. * This was the definition introduced by John von Neumann ...

Equicontinuous
In mathematical analysis, a family of functions is equicontinuous if all the functions are continuous and they have equal variation over a given neighbourhood, in a precise sense described herein. In particular, the concept applies to countable families, and thus ''sequences'' of functions. Equicontinuity appears in the formulation of Ascoli's theorem, which states that a subset of ''C''(''X''), the space of continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff space ''X'', is compact if and only if it is closed, pointwise bounded and equicontinuous. As a corollary, a sequence in ''C''(''X'') is uniformly convergent if and only if it is equicontinuous and converges pointwise to a function (not necessarily continuous a-priori). In particular, the limit of an equicontinuous pointwise convergent sequence of continuous functions ''fn'' on either metric space or locally compact space is continuous. If, in addition, ''fn'' are holomorphic, then the limit is also holomorphic. The uniform bounde ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Barreled Space
In functional analysis and related areas of mathematics, a barrelled space (also written barreled space) is a topological vector space (TVS) for which every barrelled set in the space is a neighbourhood for the zero vector. A barrelled set or a barrel in a topological vector space is a set that is convex, balanced, absorbing, and closed. Barrelled spaces are studied because a form of the Banach–Steinhaus theorem still holds for them. Barrelled spaces were introduced by . Barrels A convex and balanced subset of a real or complex vector space is called a and it is said to be , , or . A or a in a topological vector space (TVS) is a subset that is a closed absorbing disk; that is, a barrel is a convex, balanced, closed, and absorbing subset. Every barrel must contain the origin. If \dim X \geq 2 and if S is any subset of X, then S is a convex, balanced, and absorbing set of X if and only if this is all true of S \cap Y in Y for every 2-dimensional vector subspace Y; ...

Locally Convex
In functional analysis and related areas of mathematics, locally convex topological vector spaces (LCTVS) or locally convex spaces are examples of topological vector spaces (TVS) that generalize normed spaces. They can be defined as topological vector spaces whose topology is generated by translations of balanced, absorbent, convex sets. Alternatively they can be defined as a vector space with a family of seminorms, and a topology can be defined in terms of that family. Although in general such spaces are not necessarily normable, the existence of a convex local base for the zero vector is strong enough for the Hahn–Banach theorem to hold, yielding a sufficiently rich theory of continuous linear functionals. Fréchet spaces are locally convex spaces that are completely metrizable (with a choice of complete metric). They are generalizations of Banach spaces, which are complete vector spaces with respect to a metric generated by a norm. History Metrizable topologies on vect ...
