S. Romaguera, et al., A Characterization of Generalized Monotone Normed Cones, Acta mathematica Sinica. English series (Print) , 23(6), 2007, pp. 1067-1074
Let C be a cone and consider a quasi.norm p defined on it. We study the structure of the couple (C, p) as a topological space in the case where the function p is also monotone. We characterize when the topology of a quasi.normed cone can be defined by means of a monotone norm. We also define and study the dual cone of a monotone normed cone and the monotone quotient of a general cone. We provide a decomposition theorem which allows us to write a cone as a direct sum of a monotone subcone that is isomorphic to the monotone quotient and other particular subcone.
