A note on bornologies

Journal Title: Математичні Студії - Year 2018, Vol 49, Issue 1

Abstract

A bornology on a set X is a family B of subsets of X closed under taking subsets, finite unions and such that ⋃B=X. We prove that, for a bornology B on X, the following statements are equivalent: (1) there exists a vector topology τ on the vector space V(X) over R such that B is the family of all subsets of X bounded in τ; (2) there exists a uniformity U on X such that B is the family of all subsets of X totally bounded in U; (3) for every Y⊆X, Y∉B, there exists a metric d on X such that B⊆Bd, Y∉Bd, where Bd is the family of all closed discrete subsets of (X,d); (4) for every Y⊆X, Y∉B, there exists Z⊆Y such that Z′∉B for each infinite subset Z′ of Z. A bornology B satisfying (4) is called antitall. We give topological and functional characterizations of antitall bornologies.
