Abstract
For a Tychonoff space , denotes the space of all Baire-one functions on endowed with the pointwise topology. We prove that the following assertions are equivalent: (1) is a (semi-)Montel space, (2) is a (semi-)reflexive space, (3) is a (quasi-)complete space, (4) , (5) is a -space. It is proved that is sequentially complete iff is locally complete iff is a -space. In the case when is a compact space, we show that is locally complete iff is scattered. We thoroughly study the case when is a separable metrizable space. Numerous distinguished examples are given.
