    Topological Vector Space

    Description

    A topological vector space is a vector space X over a (topological) field F (typically assumed to be the fields R or C of real or complex numbers, respectively) that is endowed with a topology τ such that both vector addition X×X->X and scalar multiplication F×X->X is τ-continuous. Every topological vector space X is trivially an abelian topological group, and also has a continuous dual space X^* consisting of all continuous linear maps X->F from X to the base field F. Note that while some authors insist that the topology τ be Hausdorff, this restriction is not mathematically necessary. Topological vector spaces are of interest in a number of fields including functional analysis and a number of well-studied classes of spaces (e.g., Banach spaces and Hilbert spaces) are topological vector spaces.
