Bierstedt, Klaus Dieter; Bonet, José Density conditions on Fréchet and \((DF)\)-spaces. (English) Zbl 0745.46002 Rev. Mat. Univ. Complutense Madr. 2, Suppl., 59-75 (1989). Summary: We survey our main results on the density condition for Fréchet spaces and on the dual density conditions for (DF)-spaces as well as some recent developments. At the end of section 1., we include a new result on the projective tensor product of two Fréchet spaces. Taskinen’s construction of counterexamples to Grothendieck’s “problème des topologies” yields Fréchet spaces \(E\), \(F\) with the density condition such that \(E\hat\otimes_ \pi F\) is not (even) distinguished. We prove now that the negative solution of the “problème des topologies” is, in fact, the only obstruction: For two Fréchet spaces \(E\) and \(F\) with the density condition, \(E\hat\otimes_ \pi F\) has the density condition as well (and hence is distinguished) whenever the “problème des topologies” has a positive solution for the pair \((E,F)\).
