On the Ascoli property for locally convex spaces and topological groups

We characterize Ascoli spaces by showing that a Tychonoff space $X$ is Ascoli iff the canonical map from the free locally convex space $L(X)$ over $X$ into $C_k\big(C_k(X)\big)$ is an embedding of locally convex spaces. We prove that an uncountable direct sum of non-trivial locally convex spaces is not Ascoli. If a $c_0$-barrelled space $X$ is weakly Ascoli, then $X$ is linearly isomorphic to a dense subspace of $\mathbb{R}^Γ$ for some $Γ$. Consequently, a Fréchet space $E$ is weakly Ascoli iff $E=\mathbb{R}^N$ for some $N\leqω$. If $X$ is a $μ$-space and a $k$-space (for example, metrizable), then $C_k(X)$ is weakly Ascoli iff $X$ is discrete. We prove that the weak* dual space of a Banach space $E$ is Ascoli iff $E$ is finite-dimensional.

An Open Mapping Theorem

It is proved that any surjective morphism $f: \mathbb{Z}^κ\to K$ onto a locally compact group $K$ is open for every cardinal $κ$. This answers a question posed by Karl Heinrich Hofmann and the second author.

On $\mathfrak{P}$-spaces and related concepts

The concept of the strong Pytkeev property, recently introduced by Tsaban and Zdomskyy in [32], was successfully applied to the study of the space $C_c(X)$ of all continuous real-valued functions with the compact-open topology on some classes of topological spaces $X$ including Čech-complete Lindelöf spaces. Being motivated also by several results providing various concepts of networks we introduce the class of $\mathfrak{P}$-spaces strictly included in the class of $\aleph$-spaces. This class of generalized metric spaces is closed under taking subspaces, topological sums and countable products and any space from this class has countable tightness. Every $\mathfrak{P}$-space $X$ has the strong Pytkeev property. The main result of the present paper states that if $X$ is an $\aleph_0$-space and $Y$ is a $\mathfrak{P}$-space, then the function space $C_c(X,Y)$ has the strong Pytkeev property. This implies that for a separable metrizable space $X$ and a metrizable topological group $G$ the space $C_c(X,G)$ is metrizable if and only if it is Fréchet-Urysohn. We show that a locally precompact group $G$ is a $\mathfrak{P}$-space if and only if $G$ is metrizable.

On topological spaces and topological groups with certain local countable networks

Being motivated by the study of the space $C_c(X)$ of all continuous real-valued functions on a Tychonoff space $X$ with the compact-open topology, we introduced in [15] the concepts of a $cp$-network and a $cn$-network (at a point $x$) in $X$. In the present paper we describe the topology of $X$ admitting a countable $cp$- or $cn$-network at a point $x\in X$. This description applies to provide new results about the strong Pytkeev property, already well recognized and applicable concept originally introduced by Tsaban and Zdomskyy [43]. We show that a Baire topological group $G$ is metrizable if and only if $G$ has the strong Pytkeev property. We prove also that a topological group $G$ has a countable $cp$-network if and only if $G$ is separable and has a countable $cp$-network at the unit. As an application we show, among the others, that the space $D'(Ω)$ of distributions over open $Ω\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n}$ has a countable $cp$-network, which essentially improves the well known fact stating that $D'(Ω)$ has countable tightness. We show that, if $X$ is an $\mathcal{MK}_ω$-space, then the free topological group $F(X)$ and the free locally convex space $L(X)$ have a countable \mbox{$cp$-network}. We prove that a topological vector space $E$ is $p$-normed (for some \mbox{$0<p\leq 1$}) if and only if $E$ is Fréchet-Urysohn and admits a fundamental sequence of bounded sets.

On topological properties of the group of the null sequences valued in an Abelian topological group

Following [23], denote by $\mathfrak{F}_0$ the functor on the category $\mathbf{TAG}$ of all Hausdorff Abelian topological groups and continuous homomorphisms which passes each $X\in \mathbf{TAG}$ to the group of all $X$-valued null sequences endowed with the uniform topology. We prove that if $X\in \mathbf{TAG}$ is an $(E)$-space (respectively, a strictly angelic space or a Š-space), then $\mathfrak{F}_0 (X)$ is an $(E)$-space (respectively, a strictly angelic space or a Š-space). We study respected properties for topological groups in particular from categorical point of view. Using this investigation we show that for a locally compact Abelian (LCA) group $X$ the following are equivalent: 1) $X$ is totally disconnected, 2) $\mathfrak{F}_0 (X)$ is a Schwartz group, 3) $\mathfrak{F}_0 (X)$ respects compactness, 4) $\mathfrak{F}_0(X)$ has the Schur property. So, if a LCA group $X$ has non-zero connected component, the group $\mathfrak{F}_0(X)$ is a reflexive non-Schwartz group which does not have the Schur property. We prove also that for every compact connected metrizable Abelian group $X$ the group $\mathfrak{F}_0 (X)$ is monothetic that generalizes a result by Rolewicz for $X=\mathbb{T}$.

Topologies on groups determined by sets of convergent sequences

A Hausdorff topological group $(G,τ)$ is called an $s$-group and $τ$ is called an $s$-topology if there is a set $S$ of sequences in $G$ such that $τ$ is the finest Hausdorff group topology on $G$ in which every sequence of $S$ converges to the unit. The class $\mathbf{S}$ of all $s$-groups contains all sequential Hausdorff groups and it is finitely multiplicative. A quotient group of an $s$-group is an $s$-group. For a non-discrete topological group $(G,τ)$ the following three assertions are equivalent: 1) $(G,τ)$ is an $s$-group, 2) $(G,τ)$ is a quotient group of a Graev free topological group over a metrizable space, 3) $(G,τ)$ is a quotient group of a Graev free topological group over a sequential Tychonoff space. The Abelian version of this characterization of $s$-groups holds as well.

Characterizing sequences for precompact group topologies

A precompact group topology $τ$ on an abelian group $G$ is called {\em single sequence characterized} (for short, {\em ss-characterized}) if there is a sequence $\mathbf{u}= (u_n)$ in $G$ such that $τ$ is the finest precompact group topology on $G$ making $\mathbf{u}=(u_n)$ converge to zero. It is proved that a metrizable precompact abelian group $(G,τ)$ is $ss$-characterized iff it is countable. For every metrizable precompact group topology $τ$ on a countably infinite abelian group $G$ there exists a group topology $η$ such that $η$ is strictly finer than $τ$ and the groups $(G,τ)$ and $(G,η)$ have the equal Pontryagin dual groups. We give a complete description of all $ss$-characterized precompact abelian groups modulo countable $ss$-characterized groups from which we derive: (1) No infinite pseudocompact abelian group is $ss$-characterized. (2) An $ss$-characterized precompact abelian group is hereditarily disconnected.

Minimally almost periodic group topology on infinite countable Abelian groups: A solution to Comfort's question

For any countable subgroup $H$ of an unbounded Abelian group $G$ there is a complete Hausdorff group topology $τ$ such that $H$ is the von Neumann radical of $(G,τ)$. In particular, we obtain the positive answer to Comfort's question: any unbounded countable Abelian group admits a complete Hausdorff minimally almost periodic (MinAP) group topology. A bounded infinite Abelian group admits a MinAP group topology if and only if all its leading Ulm-Kaplansky invariants are infinite. If, in addition, $G$ is countably infinite, a MinAP group topology can be chosen to be complete.

Absolute continuity and singularity of two probability measures on a filtered space

Let $μ$ and $ν$ be fixed probability measures on a filtered space $(Ω, {\cal F}, ({\cal F}_t)_{t\in {\bf R}^{+}})$. Denote by $μ_T $ and $ν_T $ (respectively, $μ_{T-} $ and $ν_{T-} $) the restrictions of the measures $μ$ and $ν$ on ${\cal F}_T $ (respectively, on ${\cal F}_{T-} $) for a stopping time $T$. We find the Hahn decomposition of $μ_T $ and $ν_T $ using the Hahn decomposition of the measures $μ$, $ν$, and the Hellinger process $h_t$ in the strict sense of order 1/2. The norm of the absolutely continuous component of $μ_{T-} $ with respect to $ν_{T-} $ is computed in terms of density processes and Hellinger integrals.

Pontryagin duality for Abelian $s$- and $sb$-groups

The main goal of the article is to study the Pontryagin duality for Abelian $s$- and $sb$-groups. Let $G$ be an infinite Abelian group and $X$ be the dual group of the discrete group $G_d$. We show that a dense subgroup $H$ of $X$ is $\mathfrak{g}$-closed iff $H$ algebraically is the dual group of $G$ endowed with some maximally almost periodic $s$-topology. Every reflexive Polish Abelian group is $\mathfrak{g}$-closed in its Bohr compactification. If a $s$-topology $τ$ on a countably infinite Abelian group $G$ is generated by a countable set of convergent sequences, then the dual group of $(G,τ)$ is Polish. A non-trivial Hausdorff Abelian topological group is a $s$-group iff it is a quotient group of the $s$-sum of a family of copies of $(\mathbb{Z}^\mathbb{N}_0, \mathbf{e})$.

Minimally almost periodic group topology on countable torsion Abelian groups

For any countable torsion subgroup $H$ of an unbounded Abelian group $G$ there is a complete Hausdorff group topology $τ$ such that $H$ is the von Neumann radical of $(G,τ)$. In particular, any unbounded torsion countable Abelian group admits a complete Hausdorff minimally almost periodic (MinAP) group topology. If $G$ is a bounded torsion countably infinite Abelian group, then it admits a MinAP group topology if and only if all its leading Ulm-Kaplansky invariants are infinite. In such a case, a MinAP group topology can be chosen to be complete.

Groups of quasi-invariance and the Pontryagin duality

A Polish group $G$ is called a group of quasi-invariance or a QI-group, if there exist a locally compact group $X$ and a probability measure $μ$ on $X$ such that 1) there exists a continuous monomorphism of $G$ to $X$, and 2) for each $g\in X$ either $g\in G$ and the shift $μ_g$ is equivalent to $μ$ or $g\not\in G$ and $μ_g$ is orthogonal to $μ$. It is proved that $G$ is a $σ$-compact subset of $X$. We show that there exists a quotient group $\mathbb{T}^H_2$ of $\ell^2$ modulo a discrete subgroup which is a Polish monothetic non locally quasi-convex (and hence nonreflexive) pathwise connected QI-group, and such that the bidual of $\mathbb{T}^H_2$ is not a QI-group. It is proved also that the bidual group of a QI-group may be not a saturated subgroup of $X$.

On $T$-sequences and characterized subgroups

Let $X$ be a compact metrizable abelian group and $\mathbf{u}=\{u_n\}$ be a sequence in its dual $X^{\wedge}$. Set $s_{\mathbf{u}} (X)= \{x: (u_n,x)\to 1\}$ and $\mathbb{T}_0^H = \{(z_n)\in \mathbb{T}^{\infty} : z_n\to 1 \}$. Let $G$ be a subgroup of $X$. We prove that $G=s_{\mathbf{u}} (X)$ for some $\mathbf{u}$ iff it can be represented as some dually closed subgroup $G_{\mathbf{u}}$ of ${\rm Cl}_X G \times \mathbb{T}_0^H$. In particular, $s_{\mathbf{u}} (X)$ is polishable. Let $\mathbf{u}=\{u_n\}$ be a $T$-sequence. Denote by $(\widehat{X}, \mathbf{u})$ the group $X^{\wedge}$ equipped with the finest group topology in which $u_n \to 0$. It is proved that $(\widehat{X}, \mathbf{u})^{\wedge} =G_{\mathbf{u}}$ and $\mathbf{n} (\widehat{X}, \mathbf{u}) = s_{\mathbf{u}} (X)^{\perp}$. We also prove that the group generated by a Kronecker set can not be characterized.

Characterization of almost maximally almost-periodic groups

Let $G$ be an abelian group. We prove that a group $G$ admits a Hausdorff group topology $τ$ such that the von Neumann radical $\mathbf{n}(G, τ)$ of $(G, τ)$ is non-trivial and finite iff $G$ has a non-trivial finite subgroup. If $G$ is a topological group, then $\mathbf{n} (\mathbf{n} (G)) \not= \mathbf{n} (G)$ if and only if $\mathbf{n} (G)$ is not dually embedded. In particular, $\mathbf{n} (\mathbf{n} (\mathbb{Z},τ)) = \mathbf{n} (\mathbb{Z},τ)$ for any Hausdorff group topology $τ$ on $\mathbb{Z}$.
