Ascoli Theorem #
In this file, we prove the general Arzela-Ascoli theorem, and various related statements about
the topology of equicontinuous subsetes of X โแตค[๐] ฮฑ
, where X
is a topological space, ๐
is
a family of compact subsets of X
, and ฮฑ
is a uniform space.
Main statements #
- If
X
is a compact space, then the uniform structures of uniform convergence and pointwise convergence coincide on equicontinuous subsets. This is the key fact that makes equicontinuity important in functional analysis. We state various versions of it:- as an equality of
UniformSpace
s:Equicontinuous.comap_uniformFun_eq
- in terms of
IsUniformInducing
:Equicontinuous.isUniformInducing_uniformFun_iff_pi
- in terms of
IsInducing
:Equicontinuous.inducing_uniformFun_iff_pi
- in terms of convergence along a filter:
Equicontinuous.tendsto_uniformFun_iff_pi
- as an equality of
- As a consequence, if
๐
is a family of compact subsets ofX
, then the uniform structures of uniform convergence on๐
and pointwise convergence onโโ ๐
coincide on equicontinuous subsets. Again, we prove multiple variations:- as an equality of
UniformSpace
s:EquicontinuousOn.comap_uniformOnFun_eq
- in terms of
IsUniformInducing
:EquicontinuousOn.isUniformInducing_uniformOnFun_iff_pi'
- in terms of
IsInducing
:EquicontinuousOn.inducing_uniformOnFun_iff_pi'
- in terms of convergence along a filter:
EquicontinuousOn.tendsto_uniformOnFun_iff_pi'
- as an equality of
- The Arzela-Ascoli theorem follows from the previous fact and Tykhonov's theorem.
All of its variations can be found under the
ArzelaAscoli
namespace.
Implementation details #
The statements in this file may be a bit daunting because we prove everything for families and embeddings instead of subspaces with the subspace topology. This is done because, in practice, one would rarely work with
X โแตค[๐] ฮฑ
directly, so we need to provide API for bringing back the statements to various other types, such asC(X, Y)
orE โL[๐] F
. To counteract this, all statements (as well as most proofs!) are documented quite thoroughly.A lot of statements assume
โ K โ ๐, EquicontinuousOn F K
instead of the more naturalEquicontinuousOn F (โโ ๐)
. This is in order to keep the most generality, as the first statement is strictly weaker.In Bourbaki, the usual Arzela-Ascoli compactness theorem follows from a similar total boundedness result. Here we go directly for the compactness result, which is the most useful in practice, but this will be an easy addition/refactor if we ever need it.
TODO #
Prove that, on an equicontinuous family, pointwise convergence and pointwise convergence on a dense subset coincide, and deduce metrizability criterions for equicontinuous subsets.
Prove the total boundedness version of the theorem
Prove the converse statement: if a subset of
X โแตค[๐] ฮฑ
is compact, then it is equicontinuous on eachK โ ๐
.
