Definition:Quotient Topological Vector Space

Definition
Let $\GF \in \set {\R, \C}$.

Let $\struct {X, \tau}$ be a topological vector space over $\GF$.

Let $N$ be a closed linear subspace of $X$.

Let $X/N$ be the quotient vector space of $X$ modulo $N$.

Let $\tau_N$ be the quotient topology on $X/N$.

We say that $\struct {X/N, \tau_N}$ is the quotient topological vector space of $X$ modulo $N$.
