Abstract:

Birkhoff and Peressini proved that if $(X,\mathcal {T})$ is a complete metrizable topological vector lattice, a sequence converges for the topology $\mathcal {T}$ iff the sequence relatively uniformly star converges. The above assumption of lattice structure is unnecessary. A necessary and sufficient condition for the conclusion is that the positive cone be closed, normal, and generating. If, moreover, the space $(X,\mathcal {T})$ is locally convex, Namioka [11, Theorem 5.4] has shown that $\mathcal {T}$ coincides with the order bound topology ${\mathcal {T}_b}$ and Gordon [4, Corollary, p. 423] (assuming lattice structure and local convexity) shows that metric convergence coincides with relative uniform star convergence. Omitting the assumptions of lattice structure and local convexity of $(X,\mathcal {T})$ it is shown for the nonnecessarily local convex topology ${\mathcal {T}_{{\text {ru}}}}$ that ${\mathcal {T}_{\text {b}}} \subset {\mathcal {T}_{{\text {ru}}}} = \mathcal {T}$ and ${\mathcal {T}_{\text {b}}} = {\mathcal {T}_{{\text {ru}}}} = \mathcal {T}$ when $(X,\mathcal {T})$ is locally convex.
