AbstractFor locally convex, nilpotent Lie algebras we construct faithful representations by nilpotent operators on a suitable locally convex space. In the special case of nilpotent Banach–Lie algebras we get norm continuous representations by bounded operators on Banach spaces.

A well-known embedding theorem of Banach and Mazur [1, p. 185] states that every separable Banach space is isometrically isomorphic to a subspace of C[0, 1], establishing C[0, 1] as a universal separable Banach space. The embedding theorem one encounters in a course in topological vector spaces states that every Hausdorff locally convex space (l.c.s.) is topologically isomorphic to a subspace of a product of Banach spaces.

Let X be an infinite-dimensional Banach space. It is well-known that the space of X-valued, Pettis integrable functions is not always complete with respect to the topology of convergence in mean, that is, the uniform convergence of indefinite integrals (see [14]). The Archimedes integral introduced in [9] does not suffer from this defect. For the Archimedes integral, functions to be integrated are allowed to take values in a locally convex space Y larger than the space X while X accommodates the values of indefinite integrals. Moreover, there exists a locally convex space Y, into which X is continuously embedded, such that the space ℒ(μX, Y) of Y-valued, Archimedes integrable functions is identical to the completion of the space of X valued, simple functions with repect to the toplogy of convergence in mean, for each non-negative measure μ (see [9]).

Introduction. The natural problem of determining all the Lie algebras of finite dimension was broken in two parts by Levi's theorem:1) the classification of semi-simple Lie algebras (achieved by Killing and Cartan around 1890)2) the classification of solvable Lie algebras (reduced to the classification of nilpotent Lie algebras by Malcev in 1945 (see [10])).The Killing form is identically equal to zero for a nilpotent Lie algebra but it is non-degenerate for a semi-simple Lie algebra. Therefore there was a huge gap between those two extreme cases. But this gap is only illusory because, as we will prove in this work, a large class of nilpotent Lie algebras is closely related to the Kac-Moody Lie algebras. These last algebras could be viewed as infinite dimensional version of the semisimple Lie algebras.

Introduction. Let f be a modulus, ei = (δij) and E = {ei, i = 1, 2, …}. The L(f) spaces were created (to the best of our knowledge) by W. Ruckle in [2] in order to construct an example to answer a question of A. Wilansky. It turned out that these spaces are interesting spaces. For example lp, 0 < p ≦ 1 is an L(f) space with f(x) = xp, and every FK space contains an L(f) space [2]. A natural question is: For which f is L(f) a locally convex space? It is known that L(f) ⊆ l1, for all f modulus (see [2]), and l1 is the smallest locally convex FK space in which E is bounded (see [1]). Thus the question becomes: For which f does L(f) equal l1? In this paper we characterize such f. (An FK space need not be locally convex here.) We also characterize those f for which L(f) contains a convex ball. The final result of this paper is to show that if f satisfies f(x · y) ≦ f(x) · f(y) and L(f) ≠ l1 then L(f) contains no infinite dimensional subspace isomorphic to a Banach space.

Our main purpose is to describe those separated locally convex spaces which can serve as domain spaces for a closed graph theorem in which the range space is an arbitrary Banach space of (linear) dimension at most c, the cardinal number of the real line R. These are the δ-barrelled spaces which are considered in §4. Many of the standard elementary Banach spaces, including in particular all separable ones, have dimension at most c. Also it is known that an infinite dimensional Banach space has dimension at least c (see e.g. [8]). Thus if we classify Banach spaces by dimension we are dealing, in a natural sense, with the first class which contains infinite dimensional spaces.

Ito and Seidman in [5] define a BG space as a locally convex space in whichthere exists a bounded set with a dense span. In this note we extend the idea to a class of not necessarily locally convex linear topological spaces (l.t.s.). We note the link between the idea of a BG space and Weston’s characterization in [7] of separable Banach spaces. Finally we examine σ-BG spaces; here the bounded set in the definition of a BG space is replaced by the union of a sequence of bounded sets.

The main result of this paper is a sufficient condition for the minimax relation to hold for the canonical bilinear form on X × Y, where X is a nonempty convex subset of a real locally convex space and Y is a nonempty convex subset of its dual. Using the known “converse minimax theorem”, this result leads easily to a nonlinear generalisation of James's (“sup”) theorem. We give a brief discussion of the connections with the “sup-limsup theorem” and, in the appendix to the paper, we give a simple, direct proof (using Goldstine's theorem) of the converse minimax theorem referred to above, valid for the special case of a normed space.

AbstractA locally convex space (lcs) E is said to have an $$\omega ^{\omega }$$ ω ω -base if E has a neighborhood base $$\{U_{\alpha }:\alpha \in \omega ^\omega \}$$ { U α : α ∈ ω ω } at zero such that $$U_{\beta }\subseteq U_{\alpha }$$ U β ⊆ U α for all $$\alpha \le \beta $$ α ≤ β . The class of lcs with an $$\omega ^{\omega }$$ ω ω -base is large, among others contains all (LM)-spaces (hence (LF)-spaces), strong duals of distinguished Fréchet lcs (hence spaces of distributions $$D^{\prime }(\Omega )$$ D ′ ( Ω ) ). A remarkable result of Cascales-Orihuela states that every compact set in an lcs with an $$\omega ^{\omega }$$ ω ω -base is metrizable. Our main result shows that every uncountable-dimensional lcs with an $$\omega ^{\omega }$$ ω ω -base contains an infinite-dimensional metrizable compact subset. On the other hand, the countable-dimensional vector space $$\varphi $$ φ endowed with the finest locally convex topology has an $$\omega ^\omega $$ ω ω -base but contains no infinite-dimensional compact subsets. It turns out that $$\varphi $$ φ is a unique infinite-dimensional locally convex space which is a $$k_{\mathbb {R}}$$ k R -space containing no infinite-dimensional compact subsets. Applications to spaces $$C_{p}(X)$$ C p ( X ) are provided.

AbstractWe consider operators A on a sequentially complete Hausdorff locally convex space X such that $$-A$$ - A generates a (sequentially) equicontinuous equibounded $$C_0$$ C 0 -semigroup. For every Bernstein function f we show that $$-f(A)$$ - f ( A ) generates a semigroup which is of the same ‘kind’ as the one generated by $$-A$$ - A . As a special case we obtain that fractional powers $$-A^{\alpha }$$ - A α , where $$\alpha \in (0,1)$$ α ∈ ( 0 , 1 ) , are generators.

We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of stabilizing solutions for a class of modified algebraic discrete-time Riccati equations (MAREs) defined on ordered Banach spaces of sequences of linear and bounded operators. These MAREs arise in the study of linear quadratic (LQ) optimal control problems for infinite-dimensional discrete-time linear systems (DTLSs) affected simultaneously by multiplicative white noise (MN) and Markovian jumps (MJs). Unlike most of the previous works, where the detectability and observability notions are key tools for studying the global solvability of MAREs, in this paper the conditions of existence of mean-square stabilizing solutions are given directly in terms of system parameters. The methods we have used are based on the spectral theory of positive operators and the properties of trace class and compact operators. Our results generalise similar ones obtained for finite-dimensional MAREs associated with stochastic DTLSs without MJs. Also they complete and extend (in the autonomous case) former investigations concerning the existence of certain global solutions (as minimal, maximal, and stabilizing solutions) for generalized discrete-time Riccati type equations defined on infinite-dimensional ordered Banach spaces.
