PREFACE It is well known that in Functional Analysis the notion of barrelled space

plays an important role.

For example, the

open mapping and closed graph theorems and the Banach-Steinhaus theorem which are true for Banach spaces require an additional property on locally convex spaces for their validity and that is barrelledness.

A number of generalizations of barrelled

spaces have since been studied.

The aim of these authors in

writing this monograph is to give an account of certain classes of topological vector spaces and ordered topological vector spaces which generalize barrelled spaces and also to see if certain theorems true for Banach space can be carried over to these generalized classes of spaces.

To mention a few general-

izations of the above-mentioned notjon, they include, quasibarrelled, countably barrelled, o-barrelled spaces etc.

We

wish to give an up-to-date listing of such spaces and their usefulness in carrying over certain classical theorems in this monograph. This book consists of nine chapters, starting with Chapter 1 in which elementary results in topological and ordered topological vector spaces are given.

Their proofs are omitted

since they are supposed to be known to the reader and are available in any standard book on topological vector spaces or ordered

topological vector spaces, e.g. Bourbaki [4J, Kothe [31], Schaefer [47], Horvath ~1], Peressini [41], Namioka [39] or Wong and Ng [63]. Chapter 2 also consists of known results on classical locally convex topological vector spaces and can easily be found in [4], [12],

[31],

[47] or[lOJ.

In Chapter 3, we study ultrabarrelled, ultrabornologic al and guasiultrabarre lled spaces.

They were first introduced

and studied by W. Robertson [44], and Iyahen [19]. Chapter 4 deals with order-guasibarr elled vector lattices which were first introduced by Wong [61J.
