Vector topologies and the representation of spaces of random variables
Most of the spaces of random variables are non-Hausdorff linear topological spaces, whereas a number of useful results of the theory of vector topologies require the Hausdorff separation axiom for the underlying spaces. Therefore we review and complete the machinery of non-Hausdorff linear topological spaces and the techniques for their representation with suitable Hausdorff linear topological spaces, and then we work out some examples, which emphasize the ideas involved in a consistent application of the topological point of view. The final part of the paper is devoted to the discussion of the pathology, which arises when we try to treat the special case of almost everywhere convergence in the same framework.
