### A Kakutani–Mackey-like theorem

#### Abstract

We give a partial extension of a Kakutani–Mackey theorem for quasi-complemented vector spaces. This can be applied in the representation theory of certain complemented (non-normed) topological algebras. The existence of continuous linear maps, in the context of quasi-complemented vector spaces, is a very important issue in their study. Relative to this, we prove that every Hausdorff quasi-complemented locally convex space has continuous linear maps, under which a certain quasi-complemented locally convex space turns to be pre-Hilbert.
