A subset B0 of a TVS X is called a bornivorous ultrabarrel if it is a closed, balanced, and bornivorous subset of X and if there exists a sequence of closed balanced and bornivorous subsets of X such that Bi+1 + Bi+1 ⊆ Bi for all i = 0, 1, ....
In this case, is called a defining sequence for B0.
A TVS X is called quasi-ultrabarrelled if every bornivorous ultrabarrel in X is a neighbourhood of the origin.[1]
