Weak dual topology #
This file defines the weak topology given two vector spaces E and F over a commutative semiring
π and a bilinear form B : E ββ[π] F ββ[π] π. The weak topology on E is the coarsest topology
such that for all y : F every map fun x => B x y is continuous.
Main definitions #
The main definition is the type WeakBilin B.
- Given B : E ββ[π] F ββ[π] π, the typeWeakBilin Bis a type synonym forE.
- The instance WeakBilin.instTopologicalSpaceis the weak topology induced by the bilinear formB.
Main results #
We establish that WeakBilin B has the following structure:
- WeakBilin.instContinuousAdd: The addition in- WeakBilin Bis continuous.
- WeakBilin.instContinuousSMul: The scalar multiplication in- WeakBilin Bis continuous.
We prove the following results characterizing the weak topology:
- eval_continuous: For any- y : F, the evaluation mapping- fun x => B x yis continuous.
- continuous_of_continuous_eval: For a mapping to- WeakBilin Bto be continuous, it suffices that its compositions with pairing with- Bat all points- y : Fis continuous.
- tendsto_iff_forall_eval_tendsto: Convergence in- WeakBilin Bcan be characterized in terms of convergence of the evaluations at all points- y : F.
