Review text

Let \(E\) be a complex locally convex space. There are four natural topologies on the space \(P(^nE)\) of \(n\)-homogeneous continuous polynomials on \(E\): the topology \(\tau_0\) (resp. \(\tau_b)\) of uniform convergence on the convex compact (resp. bounded) subsets of \(E\), the strong topology \(\beta\) as the dual of the completion of the \(n\)-fold projective symmetric tensor product of \(E\), and the Nachbin ported topology \(\tau_\omega\). We have \(\tau_0\leq \tau_b \leq\beta\leq \tau_\omega\) on \(P(^nE)\) (here \(\leq\) means coarser than). The authors investigate whether the equality \(\tau= \sigma\) of two of these four topologies is a three space property. A property \((P)\) is a three space property if for each locally convex space \(E\), each time that the property \((P)\) holds for a subspace \(F\) of \(E\) and for the quotient space \(E/F\), then the space \(E\) has the property \((P)\) too. Curious counterexamples show that none of the equalities of two of the topologies is a three space property in the frame of arbitrary locally convex spaces. A few positive results are obtained for Fréchet spaces.
