Quasi-complete space

In functional analysis, a topological vector space (TVS) is said to be quasi-complete or boundedly complete[1] if every closed and bounded subset is complete.[2] This concept is of considerable importance for non-metrizable TVSs.[2]

Properties
  • Every quasi-complete TVS is sequentially complete.[2]
  • In a quasi-complete locally convex TVS, the closure of the convex hull of a compact subset is again compact.
  • In a quasi-complete Hausdorff TVS, every precompact subset is relatively compact.[2]
  • If X is a normed space and Y is a quasi-complete locally convex TVS then the set of all compact linear maps of X into Y is a closed vector subspace of .[3]
  • Every quasi-complete infrabarreled space is barreled.[4]
  • If X is a quasi-complete locally convex space then every weakly bounded subset of the continuous dual space is strongly bounded.[4]
  • A quasi-complete nuclear space then X has the Heine–Borel property.[5]
  • In a locally convex quasi-complete space, the closed convex hull of a compact subset is again compact.[6]

Examples and sufficient conditions
  • Every complete TVS is quasi-complete.[7]
  • The product of any collection of quasi-complete spaces is again quasi-complete.[2]
  • The projective limit of any collection of quasi-complete spaces is again quasi-complete.[8]
  • Every semi-reflexive space is quasi-complete.[9]
  • The quotient of a quasi-complete space by a closed vector subspace may fail to be quasi-complete.
