In this paper, the topological and bornological properties of $D'_\\Gamma$ and its dual $E'_\\Lambda$ are investigated. It is found that $D'_\\Gamma$ is a nuclear, semi-reflexive and semi-Montel complete normal space of distributions. Its strong dual $E'_\\Lambda$ is a nuclear, barrelled and bornological normal space of distributions which, however, is not even sequentially complete. Concrete rules are given to determine whether a distribution belongs to $D'_\\Gamma$, whether a sequence converges in $D'_\\Gamma$ and whether a set of distributions is bounded in $D'_\\Gamma$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2014-05-04T07:44:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "specified wavefront set", "distribution", "functional properties", "hörmanders space", "semi-montel complete normal space" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1007/s00220-014-2156-0" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 38, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1246393, "adsabs": "2013arXiv1308.1061D" } } }
