The Universal Compactification of Topological Convex Sets and Modules

A topological convex set is a convex set in a topological linear space with the induced topology. There is a universal continuous affine mapping of such a set into a compact convex subset of a locally convex linear space. Actually this compactification is a subset of a base normed Saks space. The results also hold for topological convex modules.
