Abstract:A locally convex space (lcs) E is said to have an ω ω -base if E has a neighborhood base {U α : α ∈ ω ω } at zero such that U β ⊆ U α for all α ≤ β. The class of lcs with an ω ω -base is large, among others contains all (LM )-spaces (hence (LF )-spaces), strong duals of distinguished Fréchet lcs (hence spaces of distributions D ′ (Ω)). A remarkable result of Cascales-Orihuela states that every compact set in a lcs with an ω ω -base is metrizable. Our main result shows that every uncountable-dimensional lcs wit… Show more
