Diffeological vector spaces

Abstract: We study the relationship between many natural conditions that one can put on a diffeological vector space: being fine or projective, having enough smooth (or smooth linear) functionals to separate points, having a diffeology determined by the smooth linear functionals, having fine finite-dimensional subspaces, and having a Hausdorff underlying topology. Our main result is that the majority of the conditions fit into a total order. We also give many examples in order to show which implications do not hold, and use our results to study the homological algebra of diffeological vector spaces.
