The approximation property of order p in locally convex spaces.
We construct a quasi-Banach space X which contains no basic sequence.
Let Ω be an open connected subset of . We show that the space A(Ω) of real-analytic functions on Ω has no (Schauder) basis. One of the crucial steps is to show that all metrizable complemented subspaces of A(Ω) are finite-dimensional.
The aim of this paper is an investigation of topological algebras with an orthogonal sequence which is total. Closed prime ideals or closed maximal ideals are kernels of multiplicative functionals and the continuous multiplicative functionals are given by the “coefficient functionals”. Our main result states that an orthogonal total sequence in a unital Fréchet algebra is already a Schauder basis. Further we consider algebras with a total sequence satisfying and for all n ∈ ℕ.
