This theorem states that given a locally bounded linear map `f` from `E` to `F` (denoted as `E →ₛₗ[σ] F`), if `E` is first countable, then `f` is continuous. Here, a set in `E` is called locally bounded if it is von Neumann bounded, which means that every neighborhood of 0 absorbs it. The condition of `E` being first countable is captured by the instance `FirstCountableTopology E`. The map `f` is continuous if for every set `s` in `E` that is von Neumann bounded, the image of `s` under `f` (`⇑f '' s`) is also von Neumann bounded in `F`. Other instances in the theorem statement specify additional properties of the types and operations involved, such as addition and scalar multiplication.
More concisely: Given a locally bounded linear map `f` from a first countable, von Neumann bounded set `E` to `F`, `f` is continuous.
