Such spaces are here called ``pre-PN spaces''. Some results on \\v{S}erstnev spaces due to B. Lafuerza, J. A. Rodriguez, and C. Sempi, are here extended to generalized \\v{S}erstnev spaces (these are pre-PN spaces satisfying a more general \\v{S}erstnev condition). We also prove some facts on PN spaces (with continuous triangle functions). First, a connection between fuzzy normed spaces defined by Felbin and certain \\v{S}erstnev PN spaces is established. We further observe that topological vector PN spaces are $F$-normable and paranormable, and also that locally convex topological vector PN spaces are bornological. This last fact allows to describe continuous linear operators between certain generalized \\v{S}erstnev spaces in terms of bounded subsets.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v4", "updated": "2005-05-23T22:17:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "54E70", "46S50" ], "keywords": [ "boundedness", "convex topological vector pn spaces", "pre-pn spaces", "locally convex topological vector pn" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 19, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2004math......8207L" } } }
