Abstract: We define and study the free topological vector space $mathbbV(X)$ over a Tychonoff space $X$. We prove that $mathbbV(X)$ is a $k_{o}mega$-space if and only if $X$ is a $k_{o}mega$-space. If $X$ is infinite, then $mathbbV(X)$ contains a closed vector subspace which is topologically isomorphic to $mathbbV(mathbbN)$. It is proved that if $X$ is a $k$-space, then $mathbbV(X)$ is locally convex if and only if $X$ is discrete and countable. If $X$ is a metrizable space it is shown that: (1) $mathbbV(X)$ has countable tightness if and only if $X$ is separable, and (2) $mathbbV(X)$ is a $k$-space if and only if $X$ is locally compact and separable. It is proved that $mathbbV(X)$ is a barrelled topological vector space if and only if $X$ is discrete. This result is applied to free locally convex spaces $L(X)$ over a Tychonoff space $X$ by showing that: (1) $L(X)$ is quasibarrelled if and only if $L(X)$ is barrelled if and only if $X$ is discrete, and (2) $L(X)$ is a Baire space if and only if $X$ is finite.
