Type of topological vector 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 Bourbaki (1950).

A convex and balanced subset of a real or complex vector space is called a disk and it is said to be disked, absolutely convex, or convex balanced.

A barrel or a barrelled set 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 ≥ 2 {\displaystyle \dim X\geq 2} and if S {\displaystyle S} is any subset of X , {\displaystyle X,} then S {\displaystyle S} is a convex, balanced, and absorbing set of X {\displaystyle X} if and only if this is all true of S ∩ Y {\displaystyle S\cap Y} in Y {\displaystyle Y} for every 2 {\displaystyle 2} -dimensional vector subspace Y ; {\displaystyle Y;} thus if dim ⁡ X > 2 {\displaystyle \dim X>2} then the requirement that a barrel be a closed subset of X {\displaystyle X} is the only defining property that does not depend solely on 2 {\displaystyle 2} (or lower)-dimensional vector subspaces of X . {\displaystyle X.}

If X {\displaystyle X} is any TVS then every closed convex and balanced neighborhood of the origin is necessarily a barrel in X {\displaystyle X} (because every neighborhood of the origin is necessarily an absorbing subset). In fact, every locally convex topological vector space has a neighborhood basis at its origin consisting entirely of barrels. However, in general, there might exist barrels that are not neighborhoods of the origin; "barrelled spaces" are exactly those TVSs in which every barrel is necessarily a neighborhood of the origin. Every finite dimensional topological vector space is a barrelled space so examples of barrels that are not neighborhoods of the origin can only be found in infinite dimensional spaces.

Examples of barrels and non-barrels[edit]

The closure of any convex, balanced, and absorbing subset is a barrel. This is because the closure of any convex (respectively, any balanced, any absorbing) subset has this same property.

A family of examples: Suppose that X {\displaystyle X} is equal to C {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} } (if considered as a complex vector space) or equal to R 2 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{2}} (if considered as a real vector space). Regardless of whether X {\displaystyle X} is a real or complex vector space, every barrel in X {\displaystyle X} is necessarily a neighborhood of the origin (so X {\displaystyle X} is an example of a barrelled space). Let R : [ 0 , 2 π ) → ( 0 , ∞ ] {\displaystyle R:[0,2\pi )\to (0,\infty ]} be any function and for every angle θ ∈ [ 0 , 2 π ) , {\displaystyle \theta \in [0,2\pi ),} let S θ {\displaystyle S_{\theta }} denote the closed line segment from the origin to the point R ( θ ) e i θ ∈ C . {\displaystyle R(\theta )e^{i\theta }\in \mathbb {C} .} Let S := ⋃ θ ∈ [ 0 , 2 π ) S θ . {\textstyle S:=\bigcup _{\theta \in [0,2\pi )}S_{\theta }.} Then S {\displaystyle S} is always an absorbing subset of R 2 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{2}} (a real vector space) but it is an absorbing subset of C {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} } (a complex vector space) if and only if it is a neighborhood of the origin. Moreover, S {\displaystyle S} is a balanced subset of R 2 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{2}} if and only if R ( θ ) = R ( π + θ ) {\displaystyle R(\theta )=R(\pi +\theta )} for every 0 ≤ θ < π {\displaystyle 0\leq \theta <\pi } (if this is the case then R {\displaystyle R} and S {\displaystyle S} are completely determined by R {\displaystyle R} 's values on [ 0 , π ) {\displaystyle [0,\pi )} ) but S {\displaystyle S} is a balanced subset of C {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} } if and only it is an open or closed ball centered at the origin (of radius 0 < r ≤ ∞ {\displaystyle 0<r\leq \infty } ). In particular, barrels in C {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} } are exactly those closed balls centered at the origin with radius in ( 0 , ∞ ] . {\displaystyle (0,\infty ].} If R ( θ ) := 2 π − θ {\displaystyle R(\theta ):=2\pi -\theta } then S {\displaystyle S} is a closed subset that is absorbing in R 2 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{2}} but not absorbing in C , {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} ,} and that is neither convex, balanced, nor a neighborhood of the origin in X . {\displaystyle X.} By an appropriate choice of the function R , {\displaystyle R,} it is also possible to have S {\displaystyle S} be a balanced and absorbing subset of R 2 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{2}} that is neither closed nor convex. To have S {\displaystyle S} be a balanced, absorbing, and closed subset of R 2 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{2}} that is neither convex nor a neighborhood of the origin, define R {\displaystyle R} on [ 0 , π ) {\displaystyle [0,\pi )} as follows: for 0 ≤ θ < π , {\displaystyle 0\leq \theta <\pi ,} let R ( θ ) := π − θ {\displaystyle R(\theta ):=\pi -\theta } (alternatively, it can be any positive function on [ 0 , π ) {\displaystyle [0,\pi )} that is continuously differentiable, which guarantees that lim θ ↘ 0 R ( θ ) = R ( 0 ) > 0 {\textstyle \lim _{\theta \searrow 0}R(\theta )=R(0)>0} and that S {\displaystyle S} is closed, and that also satisfies lim θ ↗ π R ( θ ) = 0 , {\textstyle \lim _{\theta \nearrow \pi }R(\theta )=0,} which prevents S {\displaystyle S} from being a neighborhood of the origin) and then extend R {\displaystyle R} to [ π , 2 π ) {\displaystyle [\pi ,2\pi )} by defining R ( θ ) := R ( θ − π ) , {\displaystyle R(\theta ):=R(\theta -\pi ),} which guarantees that S {\displaystyle S} is balanced in R 2 . {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{2}.}

Properties of barrels[edit] Characterizations of barreled spaces[edit]

Denote by L ( X ; Y ) {\displaystyle L(X;Y)} the space of continuous linear maps from X {\displaystyle X} into Y . {\displaystyle Y.}

If ( X , τ ) {\displaystyle (X,\tau )} is a Hausdorff topological vector space (TVS) with continuous dual space X ′ {\displaystyle X^{\prime }} then the following are equivalent:

  1. X {\displaystyle X} is barrelled.
  2. Definition: Every barrel in X {\displaystyle X} is a neighborhood of the origin.
  3. For any Hausdorff TVS Y {\displaystyle Y} every pointwise bounded subset of L ( X ; Y ) {\displaystyle L(X;Y)} is equicontinuous.
  4. For any F-space Y {\displaystyle Y} every pointwise bounded subset of L ( X ; Y ) {\displaystyle L(X;Y)} is equicontinuous.
  5. Every closed linear operator from X {\displaystyle X} into a complete metrizable TVS is continuous.
  6. Every Hausdorff TVS topology ν {\displaystyle \nu } on X {\displaystyle X} that has a neighborhood basis of the origin consisting of τ {\displaystyle \tau } -closed set is course than τ . {\displaystyle \tau .}

If ( X , τ ) {\displaystyle (X,\tau )} is locally convex space then this list may be extended by appending:

  1. There exists a TVS Y {\displaystyle Y} not carrying the indiscrete topology (so in particular, Y ≠ { 0 } {\displaystyle Y\neq \{0\}} ) such that every pointwise bounded subset of L ( X ; Y ) {\displaystyle L(X;Y)} is equicontinuous.
  2. For any locally convex TVS Y , {\displaystyle Y,} every pointwise bounded subset of L ( X ; Y ) {\displaystyle L(X;Y)} is equicontinuous.
  3. Every σ ( X ′ , X ) {\displaystyle \sigma \left(X^{\prime },X\right)} -bounded subset of the continuous dual space X {\displaystyle X} is equicontinuous (this provides a partial converse to the Banach-Steinhaus theorem).[6]
  4. X {\displaystyle X} carries the strong dual topology β ( X , X ′ ) . {\displaystyle \beta \left(X,X^{\prime }\right).}
  5. Every lower semicontinuous seminorm on X {\displaystyle X} is continuous.
  6. Every linear map F : X → Y {\displaystyle F:X\to Y} into a locally convex space Y {\displaystyle Y} is almost continuous.
  7. Every surjective linear map F : Y → X {\displaystyle F:Y\to X} from a locally convex space Y {\displaystyle Y} is almost open.
  8. If ω {\displaystyle \omega } is a locally convex topology on X {\displaystyle X} such that ( X , ω ) {\displaystyle (X,\omega )} has a neighborhood basis at the origin consisting of τ {\displaystyle \tau } -closed sets, then ω {\displaystyle \omega } is weaker than τ . {\displaystyle \tau .}

If X {\displaystyle X} is a Hausdorff locally convex space then this list may be extended by appending:

  1. Closed graph theorem: Every closed linear operator F : X → Y {\displaystyle F:X\to Y} into a Banach space Y {\displaystyle Y} is continuous.
  2. For every subset A {\displaystyle A} of the continuous dual space of X , {\displaystyle X,} the following properties are equivalent: A {\displaystyle A} is[6]
    1. equicontinuous;
    2. relatively weakly compact;
    3. strongly bounded;
    4. weakly bounded.
  3. The 0-neighborhood bases in X {\displaystyle X} and the fundamental families of bounded sets in X β ′ {\displaystyle X_{\beta }^{\prime }} correspond to each other by polarity.[6]

If X {\displaystyle X} is metrizable topological vector space then this list may be extended by appending:

  1. For any complete metrizable TVS Y {\displaystyle Y} every pointwise bounded sequence in L ( X ; Y ) {\displaystyle L(X;Y)} is equicontinuous.

If X {\displaystyle X} is a locally convex metrizable topological vector space then this list may be extended by appending:

  1. (Property S): The weak* topology on X ′ {\displaystyle X^{\prime }} is sequentially complete.
  2. (Property C): Every weak* bounded subset of X ′ {\displaystyle X^{\prime }} is σ ( X ′ , X ) {\displaystyle \sigma \left(X^{\prime },X\right)} -relatively countably compact.
  3. (𝜎-barrelled): Every countable weak* bounded subset of X ′ {\displaystyle X^{\prime }} is equicontinuous.
  4. (Baire-like): X {\displaystyle X} is not the union of an increase sequence of nowhere dense disks.

Each of the following topological vector spaces is barreled:

  1. TVSs that are Baire space.
  2. F-spaces, Fréchet spaces, Banach spaces, and Hilbert spaces.
  3. Complete pseudometrizable TVSs.

  5. Strong dual spaces of Montel spaces (since they are necessarily Montel spaces).

Properties of barreled spaces[edit] Banach–Steinhaus generalization[edit]

The importance of barrelled spaces is due mainly to the following results.

The Banach-Steinhaus theorem is a corollary of the above result. When the vector space Y {\displaystyle Y} consists of the complex numbers then the following generalization also holds.

Recall that a linear map F : X → Y {\displaystyle F:X\to Y} is called closed if its graph is a closed subset of X × Y . {\displaystyle X\times Y.}

Closed Graph TheoremEvery closed linear operator from a Hausdorff barrelled TVS into a complete metrizable TVS is continuous.
