Pointwise convergence in Lawvere metric spaces

In the formalism of Lawvere metric spaces, we have that the distance in the hom-space $[X,Y]$ is given by: $$ d(f,g) = \sup_{x\in X} d(f(x),g(x)) . $$ Therefore, a sequence of functions $f_n:X\to Y$ ...

Recognizing locally convex spaces on which all bounded linear functionals are continuous

Is it possible to characterize the Hausdorff locally convex spaces on which all bounded linear functionals are continuous? It is known that a space is bornological if and only if the space is Mackey ...

When is the strict topology bornological?

Let $X$ be a completely regular Hausdorff space. Are there known conditions under which the algebra of bounded continuous functions on $X$, endowed with the strict topology, is bornological? (Of ...

Working in coordinates with topologies on the algebra of continuous functions

Let $X$ be a Hausdorff completely regular topological space, and let $C_b (X)$ be its algebra of continuous bounded functions. Endow $C_b (X)$ with a topology given by some seminorms, that contains ...

"Reversion" of class $J(\theta)$ interpolation property for Besov spaces

In (function space) interpolation theory, a Banach space $E$ is of class $J(\theta)$ (for $0 < \theta < 1$) if $$X \cap Y \subseteq E \subseteq X+Y,$$ where $(X,Y)$ are Banach spaces and form an ...

Characterizing the sum $L^1 + L^\infty + L^{1,\infty} + L^{\infty, 1}$ of iterated Lebesgue spaces "by duality"

For the usual Lebesgue spaces $L^p (\mu)$ ($p \in [1,\infty]$) on a ($\sigma$-finite) measure space $(X,\mu)$, it is well-known that one has the characterization $$ L^p (\mu) = \left\{f : X \to \Bbb{...

Has anybody studied continued fractions in function spaces?

For the text below, define $f^\infty(x) = \lim_{n\to\infty} f^n(x)$ where $f^n = \underbrace{f \circ \ldots \circ f}_{n}$. Usually 'continued fraction' means continued fraction in $\mathbb{R}$. For ...

The topological duals of spaces of finite measures

In volume 1 of "Linear Operators", Dunford and Schwartz say that (footnote F1, page 374) "No completely satisfactory representation for the conjugate space of $ba(S, \Sigma)$, $ca(S, \Sigma)$ or $...

Imbedding Theorems between Besov Spaces and space of continuos functions on the unit circle

I'll try to be brief. Let us consider the Besov Space $B^{1/p}_{p, p}(\mathbb{T})$, where $1\leq p<\infty $ and $\mathbb{T}$ is the unit circle in the complex plane. I would like to know for which ...

Wavelet characterization of Sobolev spaces

We know that there exist wavelets generating orthonormal bases in Sobolev spaces $W^{p,s}(\mathbb R^n)$, where $p$ is the index of integral and $s$ is the index of smoothness. Consider the orthonormal ...

Density of certain rational functions in the Hilbert space $L^2(-\infty,0)$

It is easy to check that the functions $$f_{n,z}(x):=(z-x)^{-n},\quad n\geq 1,\quad z\in \mathbb{C}-(-\infty,0]$$ belong to the Hilbert space $L^2(-\infty,0)$, i.e., $L^2$-integrable complex-valued ...

Interpolation between $L_p$ and $B^s_{q,q}$

I am looking for a reference or a direct argument that shows the real interpolation space between $L_p$ and $B^s_{q,q}$ is $B^\alpha_{r,r}$, with the usual conditions on the indices. This result is ...

Moduli of smoothness, Besov spaces, and Sobolev spaces

For $1\leq p\leq\infty$, the $r$-th order $L^p$-modulus of smoothness is \begin{equation} \omega_r(u,t,\Omega)_p=\sup_{|h|\leq t}\|\Delta_h^ru\|_{L^p(\Omega_{rh})} \end{equation} where $\Omega_{rh}=\{...

Continuous embedding of Hardy space in Lebesgue space

I would like to have a reference to the following statement which I think is true: $$h^1 \hookrightarrow L^1.$$ The closest I came to this is in D. Goldberg's paper, "A local version of real Hardy ...

Connected components of space of maps between two manifolds
