Indeed, given an n-tensor topology on the spaces of symmetric n-tensor products we construct an n-tensor topology on the spaces of all n-tensor products whose restriction to the symmetric ones gives the original topology. Moreover, we prove that when one starts with an n-tensor topology, restricts it to symmetric tensors andthen extends it, the original topology is obtained when it is symmetric, and we also obtainsome results on complementation with applications to spaces of polynomials. Part of theseresults generalize to the context of locally convex spaces some Floret's results in [17] and [18]. %~
