Let V be a paracompact real analytic manifold of dimension n ≥ 1. Following the terminology of the theory of distributions of Schwartz (4), is the linear space of infinitely differentiable functions with compact support in V with the appropriate inductive limit topology, is the Frechet space of infinitely differentiable functions on V, is the dual space of consisting of the distributions on V, the dual space of consisting of the distributions with compact support on V. Let 𝒰(V) be the linear space of real analytic functions on V.
