For a locally convex space
(X,τ) and an increasing sequence (Aν)ν∈N of convex, circled subsets of X the
generalized inductive limit topology related to (X,τ) and (Aν)ν∈N is defined to be
the finest locally convex topology on X agreeing with τ on the sets Aν, ν ∈ N.
Several results on the classification and the inheritance properties of various types of
barrelledness and their evaluable analogs are shown to be consequences only of a few
basic properties of such an inductive limit topology and, in this way, are deduced and
extended in a unified manner.
