(DF)-Spaces of type
and 
Abstract
Some locally convex properties of the spaces
of the bounded continuous functions on a completely regular Hausdorff space X with values in a (DF-space) E are studied and applied to the (DF)-spaces of type
(e.g., see [S]).The following are our main results:
1.
is a (DF)-space if and only if E is a (DF)-space.
2.For a (DF)-space E,
is quasi barrelled if and only if either (i)X is pseudocompact and E is quasibarrelled or (ii) X is not pseudocompact and the bounded subsets of E are metrizaable.
3. If
and if each
is dominated by some
, then
(resp.,
) is a (DF)-space if and only if E is a (DF)-space.
4. Let X be a locally compact and σ-compact space,
and E a (DF)-space. Then
is quasibarrelled if and only if (i) E is quasibarrelled and
satisfies condition
or (ii) the bounded subsets of E are metrizable and
satisfies condition (D).
