Order Convergent
In mathematics, specifically in order theory and functional analysis, a filter \mathcal in an order complete vector lattice X is order convergent if it contains an order bounded subset (that is, is contained in an interval of the form , b:= \) and if \mathcal, \sup \left\ = \inf \left\, where \operatorname(X) is the set of all order bounded subsets of ''X'', in which case this common value is called the order limit of \mathcal in X. Order convergence plays an important role in the theory of vector lattices because the definition of order convergence does not depend on any topology. Definition A net \left(x_\right)_ in a vector lattice X is said to decrease to x_0 \in X if \alpha \leq \beta implies x_ \leq x_ and x_0 = inf \left\ in X. A net \left(x_\right)_ in a vector lattice X is said to order-converge to x_0 \in X if there is a net \left(y_\right)_ in X that decreases to 0 and satisfies \left, x_ - x_0\ \leq y_ for all \alpha \in A.

Order Theory
Order theory is a branch of mathematics that investigates the intuitive notion of order using binary relations. It provides a formal framework for describing statements such as "this is less than that" or "this precedes that". This article introduces the field and provides basic definitions. A list of order-theoretic terms can be found in the order theory glossary. Background and motivation Orders are everywhere in mathematics and related fields like computer science. The first order often discussed in primary school is the standard order on the natural numbers e.g. "2 is less than 3", "10 is greater than 5", or "Does Tom have fewer cookies than Sally?". This intuitive concept can be extended to orders on other sets of numbers, such as the integers and the reals. The idea of being greater than or less than another number is one of the basic intuitions of number systems (compare with numeral systems) in general (although one usually is also interested in the actual difference ...

Functional Analysis
Functional analysis is a branch of mathematical analysis, the core of which is formed by the study of vector spaces endowed with some kind of limit-related structure (e.g. Inner product space#Definition, inner product, Norm (mathematics)#Definition, norm, Topological space#Definition, topology, etc.) and the linear transformation, linear functions defined on these spaces and respecting these structures in a suitable sense. The historical roots of functional analysis lie in the study of function space, spaces of functions and the formulation of properties of transformations of functions such as the Fourier transform as transformations defining continuous function, continuous, unitary operator, unitary etc. operators between function spaces. This point of view turned out to be particularly useful for the study of differential equations, differential and integral equations. The usage of the word ''functional (mathematics), functional'' as a noun goes back to the calculus of variati ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Filter (set Theory)
In mathematics, a filter on a set X is a family \mathcal of subsets such that: # X \in \mathcal and \emptyset \notin \mathcal # if A\in \mathcal and B \in \mathcal, then A\cap B\in \mathcal # If A,B\subset X,A\in \mathcal, and A\subset B, then B\in \mathcal A filter on a set may be thought of as representing a "collection of large subsets". Filters appear in order, model theory, set theory, but can also be found in topology, from which they originate. The dual notion of a filter is an ideal. Filters were introduced by Henri Cartan in 1937 and as described in the article dedicated to filters in topology, they were subsequently used by Nicolas Bourbaki in their book ''Topologie Générale'' as an alternative to the related notion of a net developed in 1922 by E. H. Moore and Herman L. Smith. Order filters are generalizations of filters from sets to arbitrary partially ordered sets. Specifically, a filter on a set is just a proper order filter in the special case where the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Order Complete
In mathematics, specifically in order theory and functional analysis, a subset A of an ordered vector space is said to be order complete in X if for every non-empty subset S of C that is order bounded in A (meaning contained in an interval, which is a set of the form [a, b] := \, for some a, b \in A), the supremum \sup S' and the infimum \inf S both exist and are elements of A. An ordered vector space is called order complete, Dedekind complete, a complete vector lattice, or a complete Riesz space, if it is order complete as a subset of itself, in which case it is necessarily a vector lattice. An ordered vector space is said to be countably order complete if each countable subset that is bounded above has a supremum. Being an order complete vector space is an important property that is used frequently in the theory of topological vector lattices. Examples The Order dual (functional analysis), order dual of a vector lattice is an order complete vector lattice under its canonica ...

Vector Lattice
In mathematics, a Riesz space, lattice-ordered vector space or vector lattice is a partially ordered vector space where the order structure is a lattice. Riesz spaces are named after Frigyes Riesz who first defined them in his 1928 paper ''Sur la décomposition des opérations fonctionelles linéaires''. Riesz spaces have wide-ranging applications. They are important in measure theory, in that important results are special cases of results for Riesz spaces. For example, the Radon–Nikodym theorem follows as a special case of the Freudenthal spectral theorem. Riesz spaces have also seen application in mathematical economics through the work of Greek-American economist and mathematician Charalambos D. Aliprantis. Definition Preliminaries If X is an ordered vector space (which by definition is a vector space over the reals) and if S is a subset of X then an element b \in X is an upper bound (resp. lower bound) of S if s \leq b (resp. s \geq b) for all s \in S. An element ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Order Bounded Set
In mathematics, an ordered vector space or partially ordered vector space is a vector space equipped with a partial order that is compatible with the vector space operations. Definition Given a vector space ''X'' over the real numbers R and a preorder ≤ on the set ''X'', the pair is called a preordered vector space and we say that the preorder ≤ is compatible with the vector space structure of ''X'' and call ≤ a vector preorder on ''X'' if for all ''x'', ''y'', ''z'' in ''X'' and ''λ'' in R with the following two axioms are satisfied # implies # implies . If ≤ is a partial order compatible with the vector space structure of ''X'' then is called an ordered vector space and ≤ is called a vector partial order on ''X''. The two axioms imply that translations and positive homotheties are automorphisms of the order structure and the mapping is an isomorphism to the dual order structure. Ordered vector spaces are ordered groups under their addition op ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Minimal Vector Lattice
In mathematics, specifically in order theory and functional analysis, the order dual of an ordered vector space X is the set \operatorname\left(X^*\right) - \operatorname\left(X^*\right) where \operatorname\left(X^*\right) denotes the set of all positive linear functionals on X, where a linear function f on X is called positive if for all x \in X, x \geq 0 implies f(x) \geq 0. The order dual of X is denoted by X^+. Along with the related concept of the order bound dual, this space plays an important role in the theory of ordered topological vector spaces. Canonical ordering An element f of the order dual of X is called positive if x \geq 0 implies \operatorname f(x) \geq 0. The positive elements of the order dual form a cone that induces an ordering on X^+ called the canonical ordering. If X is an ordered vector space whose positive cone C is generating (that is, X = C - C) then the order dual with the canonical ordering is an ordered vector space. The order dual is the span o ...

Order Topology (functional Analysis)
In mathematics, specifically in order theory and functional analysis, the order topology of an ordered vector space (X, \leq) is the finest locally convex topological vector space (TVS) topology on X for which every order interval is bounded, where an order interval in X is a set of the form [a, b] := \left\ where a and b belong to X. The order topology is an important topology that is used frequently in the theory of ordered topological vector spaces because the topology stems directly from the algebraic and order theoretic properties of (X, \leq), rather than from some topology that X starts out having. This allows for establishing intimate connections between this topology and the algebraic and order theoretic properties of (X, \leq). For many ordered topological vector spaces that occur in analysis, their topologies are identical to the order topology.
