Abstract: We give a unified approach to handle the problem of extending functions with values in a locally convex Hausdorff space E over a field mathbbK, which have weak extensions in a space mathcalF(Omega,mathbbK) of scalar-valued functions on a set Omega, to functions in a vector-valued counterpart mathcalF(Omega,E) of mathcalF(Omega,mathbbK). The results obtained base upon a representation of vector-valued functions as linear continuous operators and extend results of Bonet, Frerick, Gramsch and Jord'{a}. In particular, we apply them to obtain a sequence space representation of mathcalF(Omega,E) from a known representation of mathcalF(Omega,mathbbK).


The following extension problem is considered in this article: Let \(\Gamma\) be a subset of \(\Omega\). Assume that a function \(f:\Gamma \rightarrow E\), with values in a locally convex space \(E\), satisfies that \(u \circ f\) can be extended to \(\Omega\) for each \(u\) in a subspace \(G\) of the dual \(E'\) of \(E\), and that each extension belongs to a certain function space \(\mathcal{F}(\Omega)\) of scalar functions. The question is to give conditions on \(\Gamma\), \(\Omega\), \(G\) and \(E\) to ensure that there is a vector-valued function \(F:\Omega \rightarrow E\), belonging to a related space \(\mathcal{F}(\Omega,E)\) of vector-valued functions, such that its restriction to \(\Gamma\) coincides with~\(f\). This type of problems have been considered in the literature by many authors since the work of Dunford and Grothendieck. The author develops a unified approach to the extension problem for a large class of function spaces. The results obtained are based on a representation of vector-valued functions as linear continuous operators, which extend results of Bierstedt, Bonet, Frerick, Gramsch, Jordá and others. In the last section, these results are applied to represent function spaces \(\mathcal{F}(\Omega,E)\) by sequence spaces if one knows such a sequence space representation for \(\mathcal{F}(\Omega)\).
