Abstract

We show that if a locally convex space (lcs) (E, τ) is a sequentially Ascoli space in the weak topology, then τ= σ(E, E). Consequently, a complete lcs E is weakly sequentially Ascoli iff E= Fλ for some cardinal λ. For a Tychonoff space X, let Ck(X) be the space C(X) of all continuous functions on X endowed with the compact-open topology. We prove that: (1) Ck(X) is weakly sequentially Ascoli iff Ck(X) is weakly Ascoli iff it is weakly κ -Fréchet–Urysohn iff X has the property (κ) and every compact subset of X is finite; (2) Ck(X) is weakly Fréchet–Urysohn iff Ck(X) is a weakly sequential space iff it is a weakly k-space iff the space X has the property γ whose compact subsets are finite; (3) the dual space of Ck(X) is weak sequentially Ascoli iff X is finite. If Cb(X) is the space C(X) with the topology of uniform convergence on functionally bounded subsets of X, then: (a) Cb(X) is weakly sequentially Ascoli iff Cb(X) is weakly Ascoli iff it is weakly κ -Fréchet–Urysohn iff X has the property (κ) and every functionally bounded subset of X is finite; (2) Cb(X) is weakly Fréchet–Urysohn iff Cb(X) is a weakly sequential space iff it is a weakly k-space iff the space X has the property γ whose functionally bounded subsets are finite.
