ASYMMETRIC LOCALLY CONVEX SPACES S. COBZAS¸ Received 14 February 2005 and in revised form 6 June 2005 The aim of the present paper is to introduce the asymmetric locally convex spaces and to prove some basic properties. Among these I do mention the analogs of the Eidelheit- Tuckey separation theorems, of the Alaoglu-Bourbaki theorem on the weak compactness of the polar of a neighborhood of 0, and a Krein-Milman-type theorem. These results ´ extend those obtained by Garcıa-Raffi et al. (2003) and Cobzas¸ (2004). 1. Introduction Let X be a real vector space. An asymmetric seminorm on X is a positive sublinear func- tional p : X → [0;∞), that is, p satisfies the conditions (AN1) p (x ) ≥ 0, (AN2) p (tx) = tp(x ), t ≥ 0, (AN3) p (x + y ) ≤ p (x ) + p (y ), ¯ ¯ for all x,y ∈ X . The function p : X → [0,∞), defined by p (x ) = p (−x ), x ∈ X , is another positive sublinear functional on X , called the conjugate of p , and p s (x ) = max p (x ),p (−x ) , x ∈ X , (1.1) is a seminorm on X . The inequalities s s ¯ ¯ p (x ) −p (y ) ≤ p (x −y ), p (x ) −p (y ) ≤ p (x −y ) (1.2) hold for all x,y ∈ X . If the seminorm p s is a norm on X , then we say that p is an asym- metric norm on X . This means that, beside (AN1)–(AN3), it satisfies also the condition (AN4) p (x ) = 0 and p (−x ) = 0 imply that x = 0. The pair (X ,p ), where X is a linear space and p is an asymmetric seminorm on X is called a space with asymmetric seminorm, respectively, a space with asymmetric norm, if p
