A topological space $X$ is an $\\aleph_0$-space or an $\\aleph$-space if $X$ has a countable $k$-network or a $\\sigma$-locally finite $k$-network, respectively. We are motivated by the following result of Corson (1966): If the space $C_{c}(X)$ of continuous real-valued functions on a Tychonoff space $X$ endowed with the compact-open topology is a Banach space, then $C_{c}(X)$ endowed with the weak topology is an $\\aleph_0$-space if and only if $X$ is countable. We extend Corson's result as follows: If the space $E:=C_{c}(X)$ is a Fr\\'echet lcs, then $E$ endowed with its weak topology $\\sigma(E,E')$ is an $\\aleph$-space if and only if $(E,\\sigma(E,E'))$ is an $\\aleph_0$-space if and only if $X$ is countable. We obtain a necessary and some sufficient conditions on a Fr\\'echet lcs to be an $\\aleph$-space in the weak topology. We prove that a reflexive Fr\\'echet lcs $E$ in the weak topology $\\sigma(E,E')$ is an $\\aleph$-space if and only if $(E,\\sigma(E,E'))$ is an $\\aleph_0$-space if and only if $E$ is separable. We show however that the nonseparable Banach space $\\ell_{1}(\\mathbb{R})$ with the weak topology is an $\\aleph$-space.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-12-04T18:02:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "46A03", "54H11", "22A05", "54C35" ], "keywords": [ "weak topology", "fréchet spaces", "extend corsons result", "nonseparable banach space", "reflexive frechet lcs" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1412.1748G" } } }
