Let $E$ be a TVS over $K \in \RC$. Similar to the case of uniform spaces, there exists a family of pseudonorms $\seqi{\rho}$ that induces the topology on $E$. Using Minkowski functionals (\ref{definition:gauge}), $\seqi{\rho}$ can be taken such that $\rho_i(\lambda x) = \abs{\lambda}\rho_i(x)$ for all $x \in E$ and $\lambda \in K$. However, a single pseudonorm with this property cannot always induce the topology even if the space is metrisable, hence the difference between pseudonorms and seminorms.

Let $E$ be a TVS over $K \in \RC$, then $E$ is \textbf{locally bounded} if there exists $U \in \cn^o(0)$ bounded.

\begin{proposition}[{{\cite[1.6.2]{SchaeferWolff}}}]

\label{proposition:locally-bounded-metrisable}
|
||||
Let $E$ be a locally bounded TVS over $K \in \RC$, then there exists a pseudonorm $\rho: E \to [0, \infty)$ that induces the topology on $E$.
|
||||
\end{proposition}
|
||||
\begin{proof}
|
||||
Let $U \in \cn^o(0)$ be bounded. Using \ref{proposition:tvs-good-neighbourhood-base}, assume without loss of generality that $U$ is circled. For each $n \in \natp$, let $U_n = n^{-1}U$. Let $V \in \cn^o(0)$, then there exists $\lambda \in K$ such that $\lambda V \supset U$, $\abs{\lambda}^{-1}U \subset V$. For any $n \in \natp$ with $n^{-1} < \abs{\lambda}^{-1}$, $U_n \subset V$. Thus $E$ admits a countable fundamental system of neighbourhoods at $0$. By \ref{theorem:tvs-metrisable}, the topology on $E$ is induced by a pseudonorm.
