Nov 27, 2012 at 7:38 comment added Jochen Wengenroth Okay, one one does not need induction. However, the inductive argument does not need that $C$ is closed. For example, it proves that $\int f d\mu$ always belongs to $C$.
Nov 26, 2012 at 21:54 comment added Pietro Majer Actually we do not need induction: since $x$ is an extremal point there is a linear functional $u$ such that $u(y) < u(x):=t$ for all $y\in C\setminus\{x\}$ (this is a characterization); with the same argument one immediately has $f(y)\in C\cap\{u=t \}=\{x\}$ a.e. that is $f(y)=t$ a.e. The same argument works with any compact $C$ in a LCTVS, and w.r.to the Pettis integral.

Nov 26, 2012 at 17:39 comment added Alexandre Eremenko Yes, if $C$ is compact. See the end of my solution. Bauer's theorem applies in any locally convex space.
Nov 26, 2012 at 15:23 comment added Nate Eldredge Is this fact still true in infinite-dimensional spaces? Say, a separable Frechet space.
