Abstract

This survey introduces and motivates the foundations of the theory of
locally convex cones which aims to generalize the well established theory of locally convex topological vector spaces. We explain the main concepts,
provide definitions, principal results, examples and applications. For details and proofs we generally refer to the literature.
