Besides the weak topology on a normed space $X$ (coinciding with the topology of uniform convergence on finite subsets of the dual space $X^*$), we consider the topology $c$ of uniform convergence on compact subsets of $X^*$. It is known that this topology coincides with the weak topology on bounded subsets of $X$, but unlike to the latter has much better topological properties (e.g., is stratifiable). We prove that for normed spaces $X,Y$ with separable duals the spaces $(X,weak)$, $(Y,weak)$ are sequentially homeomorphic if and only if $\\mathcal W(X)=\\mathcal W(Y)$, where $\\mathcal W(X)$ is the class of topological spaces homeomorphic to closed bounded subsets of $(X,weak)$. Moreover, if $X,Y$ are Banach spaces which are isomorphic to their hyperplanes and have separale duals, then the spaces $(X,weak)$ and $(Y,weak)$ are sequentially homeomorphic if and only of the spaces $(X,c)$ and $(Y,c)$ are homeomorphic. To prove this result, we show that for a normed space $X$ which is isomorphic to its hyperpane and has separable dual, the space $(X,c)$ (resp. $(X,weak)$) is (sequentially) homeomorphic to the product $B\\times\\mathbb R^\\infty$ of the weak unit ball $B$ of $X$ and the linear space $\\mathbb R^\\infty$ with countable Hamel basis and the strongest linear topology.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-08-24T09:41:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57N17", "57N20", "46A20", "46A19" ], "keywords": [ "normed space", "weak topology", "compact convergence", "topological classification", "uniform convergence" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
