Abstract

We characterize a topological convex space $C$ in terms of the family $\mathcal{A}(C)$ of real continuous affine functions on $C$. Our main result states that two topological convex spaces $C_1$ and $C_2$ are affine-homeomorphic if and only if $\mathcal{A}(C_1)$ and $\mathcal{A}(C_2)$ are isomorphic as ordered unital vector spaces.
