In functional analysis and related areas of mathematics a FK-space or Fréchet coordinate space is a sequence space equipped with a topological structure such that it becomes a Fréchet space. FK-spaces with a normable topology are called BK-spaces.

There exists only one topology to turn a sequence space into a Fréchet space, namely the topology of pointwise convergence. Thus the name coordinate space because a sequence in an FK-space converges if and only if it converges for each coordinate.

FK-spaces are examples of topological vector spaces. They are important in summability theory.

Definition

edit

A FK-space is a sequence space of  , that is a linear subspace of vector space of all complex valued sequences, equipped with the topology of pointwise convergence.

We write the elements of   as   with  .

Then sequence   in   converges to some point   if it converges pointwise for each   That is   if for all    

Examples

edit

The sequence space   of all complex valued sequences is trivially an FK-space.

Properties

edit

Given an FK-space of   and   with the topology of pointwise convergence the inclusion map   is a continuous function.

FK-space constructions

edit

Given a countable family of FK-spaces   with   a countable family of seminorms, we define   and   Then   is again an FK-space.
