Weak Dual in Topological Vector Spaces #

We prove that the weak topology induced by a bilinear form B : E →ₗ[𝕜] F →ₗ[𝕜] 𝕜 is locally convex and we explicit give a neighborhood basis in terms of the family of seminorms λ x, ‖B x y‖ for y : F.

Main definitions #

linear_map.to_seminorm: turn a linear form f : E →ₗ[𝕜] 𝕜 into a seminorm λ x, ‖f x‖.
linear_map.to_seminorm_family: turn a bilinear form B : E →ₗ[𝕜] F →ₗ[𝕜] 𝕜 into a map F → seminorm 𝕜 E.

Main statements #

linear_map.has_basis_weak_bilin: the seminorm balls of B.to_seminorm_family form a neighborhood basis of 0 in the weak topology.
linear_map.to_seminorm_family.with_seminorms: the topology of a weak space is induced by the family of seminorm B.to_seminorm_family.
weak_bilin.locally_convex_space: a spaced endowed with a weak topology is locally convex.
