Abstract: Motivated by Rosenthal's famous l1-dichotomy in Banach spaces, Haydon's theorem, and additionally by recent works on tame dynamical systems, we introduce the class of tame locally convex spaces. This is a natural locally convex analogue of Rosenthal Banach spaces (for which any bounded sequence contains a weak Cauchy subsequence). Our approach is based on a bornology of tame subsets which in turn is closely related to eventual fragmentability. This leads, among others, to the following results: extending Haydon's characterization of Rosenthal Banach spaces, by showing that a lcs E is tame iff every weak-star compact, equicontinuous convex subset of E∗ is the strong closed convex hull of its extreme points iff overlinemco,w∗(K)=overlinemco,(K) for every weak-star compact equicontinuous subset K of E∗; E is tame iff there is no bounded sequence equivalent to the generalized l1-sequence; strengthening some results of W.M. Ruess about Rosenthal's dichotomy; applying the Davis-Figiel-Johnson-Pelczy'nski (DFJP) technique one may show that every tame operator TcolonEoF between a lcs E and a Banach space F can be factored through a tame (i.e., Rosenthal) Banach space.


Motivated by Rosenthal's famous \(\ell_1\)-dichotomy in Banach spaces, Haydon's theorem, and additionally by recent works on tame dynamical systems, the authors introduce the class of \textit{tame locally convex spaces}. This is a natural locally convex analogue of Rosenthal Banach spaces (for which any bounded sequence contains a weak Cauchy subsequence). The approach is based on a bornology of tame subsets which in turn is closely related to eventual fragmentability. This leads to the following results: \begin{itemize} \item[1.] extending Haydon's characterization of Rosenthal Banach spaces, by showing that an lcs \(E\) is tame iff every weak-star compact, equicontinuous convex subset of \(E^*\) is the strong closed convex hull of its extreme points iff \(\overline{\operatorname{co}}^{w^*}(K)=\overline{\operatorname{co}}(K)\) for every weak-star compact equicontinuous subset \(K\) of \(E^*\); \item[2.] \(E\) is tame iff there is no bounded sequence equivalent to the generalized \(\ell_1\)-sequence; \item[3.] every tame operator \(T\colon E \to F\) between an lcs \(E\) and a Banach space \(F\) can be factored through a tame (i.e., Rosenthal) Banach space. \end{itemize}
