Locally convex vector lattice

In mathematics, specifically in order theory and functional analysis, a locally convex vector lattice (LCVL) is a topological vector lattice that is also a locally convex space.^[1] LCVLs are important in the theory of topological vector lattices.

The Minkowski functional of a convex, absorbing, and solid set is a called a lattice semi-norm. Equivalently, it is a semi-norm ${\displaystyle p}${\displaystyle p} such that ${\displaystyle |y|\leq |x|}${\displaystyle |y|\leq |x|} implies ${\displaystyle p(y)\leq p(x).}${\displaystyle p(y)\leq p(x).} The topology of a locally convex vector lattice is generated by the family of all continuous lattice semi-norms.^[1]

Every locally convex vector lattice possesses a neighborhood base at the origin consisting of convex balanced solid absorbing sets.^[1]

The strong dual of a locally convex vector lattice ${\displaystyle X}${\displaystyle X} is an order complete locally convex vector lattice (under its canonical order) and it is a solid subspace of the order dual of ${\displaystyle X}${\displaystyle X}; moreover, if ${\displaystyle X}${\displaystyle X} is a barreled space then the continuous dual space of ${\displaystyle X}${\displaystyle X} is a band in the order dual of ${\displaystyle X}${\displaystyle X} and the strong dual of ${\displaystyle X}${\displaystyle X} is a complete locally convex TVS.^[1]

If a locally convex vector lattice is barreled then its strong dual space is complete (this is not necessarily true if the space is merely a locally convex barreled space but not a locally convex vector lattice).^[1]

If a locally convex vector lattice ${\displaystyle X}${\displaystyle X} is semi-reflexive then it is order complete and ${\displaystyle X_{b}}${\displaystyle X_{b}} (that is, ${\displaystyle \left(X,b\left(X,X^{\prime }\right)\right)}${\displaystyle \left(X,b\left(X,X^{\prime }\right)\right)}) is a complete TVS; moreover, if in addition every positive linear functional on ${\displaystyle X}${\displaystyle X} is continuous then ${\displaystyle X}${\displaystyle X} is of ${\displaystyle X}${\displaystyle X} is of minimal type, the order topology ${\displaystyle \tau _{\operatorname {O} }}${\displaystyle \tau _{\operatorname {O} }} on ${\displaystyle X}${\displaystyle X} is equal to the Mackey topology ${\displaystyle \tau \left(X,X^{\prime }\right),}${\displaystyle \tau \left(X,X^{\prime }\right),} and ${\displaystyle \left(X,\tau _{\operatorname {O} }\right)}${\displaystyle \left(X,\tau _{\operatorname {O} }\right)} is reflexive.^[1] Every reflexive locally convex vector lattice is order complete and a complete locally convex TVS whose strong dual is a barreled reflexive locally convex TVS that can be identified under the canonical evaluation map with the strong bidual (that is, the strong dual of the strong dual).^[1]

If a locally convex vector lattice ${\displaystyle X}${\displaystyle X} is an infrabarreled TVS then it can be identified under the evaluation map with a topological vector sublattice of its strong bidual, which is an order complete locally convex vector lattice under its canonical order.^[1]

If ${\displaystyle X}${\displaystyle X} is a separable metrizable locally convex ordered topological vector space whose positive cone ${\displaystyle C}${\displaystyle C} is a complete and total subset of ${\displaystyle X,}${\displaystyle X,} then the set of quasi-interior points of ${\displaystyle C}${\displaystyle C} is dense in ${\displaystyle C.}${\displaystyle C.}^[1]

If ${\displaystyle (X,\tau )}${\displaystyle (X,\tau )} is a locally convex vector lattice that is bornological and sequentially complete, then there exists a family of compact spaces ${\displaystyle \left(X_{\alpha }\right)_{\alpha \in A}}${\displaystyle \left(X_{\alpha }\right)_{\alpha \in A}} and a family of ${\displaystyle A}${\displaystyle A}-indexed vector lattice embeddings ${\displaystyle f_{\alpha }:C_{\mathbb {R} }\left(K_{\alpha }\right)\to X}${\displaystyle f_{\alpha }:C_{\mathbb {R} }\left(K_{\alpha }\right)\to X} such that ${\displaystyle \tau }${\displaystyle \tau } is the finest locally convex topology on ${\displaystyle X}${\displaystyle X} making each ${\displaystyle f_{\alpha }}${\displaystyle f_{\alpha }} continuous.^[2]

Every Banach lattice, normed lattice, and Fréchet lattice is a locally convex vector lattice.
