Feb 16, 2013 at 12:06 comment added jbc Just a wee addendum to the answer below. The topology $\tau'$ is the Mackey topology on $V$, i.e., the finest locally convex topology for the duality $(V,V')$, aka the topology of uniform convergence on the weakly (i.e., $\sigma(V',V)$) compact subsets of $V'$. Thus, in a certain sense, they are as far apart as possible---the finest and the weakest locally convex topologies for this duality.
