Hypocontinuous bilinear map - Wikipedia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

(Redirected from Hypocontinuous)

In mathematics, a hypocontinuous is a condition on bilinear maps of topological vector spaces that is weaker than continuity but stronger than separate continuity. Many important bilinear maps that are not continuous are, in fact, hypocontinuous.

If {\displaystyle X}, {\displaystyle Y} and {\displaystyle Z} are topological vector spaces then a bilinear map {\displaystyle \beta :X\times Y\to Z} is called hypocontinuous if the following two conditions hold:

Sufficient conditions

[edit]

Theorem:[1] Let X and Y be barreled spaces and let Z be a locally convex space. Then every separately continuous bilinear map of {\displaystyle X\times Y} into Z is hypocontinuous.
