Jan 20, 2018 at 17:48 comment added Pietro Majer @NateEldredge Also, in any Hilbert space with an orthogonal basis $\{e_\lambda\}_{\lambda\in\Lambda}$, an element $u\in H$ is the sum of the summable family $\{(u,e_\lambda)e_\lambda\}_{\lambda\in\Lambda}$, (which of course in general is not absolutely summable).
Jan 20, 2018 at 17:34 comment added Nate Eldredge Ah, I see. Thank you. Now I can think about the question.
Jan 20, 2018 at 17:31 comment added 0xbadf00d @NateEldredge I'm sorry, you're right. Here is a working counterexample: Let $(\Omega,\mathcal A)=(\mathbb N,2^{\mathbb N})$, $(\alpha_n)_{n\in\mathbb N}\in c_0$ and $$\mu(I):=\sum_{i\in I}\alpha_ie^i\;\;\;\text{for }I\subseteq\mathbb N\;,$$ where $e^i\in C_0$ is such that $e^i_j=\delta_{ij}$. Then, $$|\mu|(I)=\sum_{i\in I}|\alpha_i|\;\;\;\text{for all }I\subseteq\mathbb N$$ and hence $\mu$ has bounded variation iff $\alpha\in\ell_1$.
Jan 20, 2018 at 17:22 comment added Nate Eldredge @0xbadf00d: I don't know, is it? If not, what's a counterexample? Also, what's an example of a sequence in a Banach space that is summable but not absolutely summable?
Jan 20, 2018 at 17:00 comment added 0xbadf00d @JeanDuchon $(1)$ is summability in $E$: $(x_i)_{i\in I}\subseteq E$ is called summable iff there is a $x\in E$ with $$\forall\varepsilon>0:\exists J\subseteq I\text{ with }|J|\in\mathbb N:\forall K\subseteq I\text{ with }|K|\in\mathbb N\text{ and }J\subseteq K:\left\|x-\sum_{k\in K}x_k\right\|_E<\varepsilon\;.$$ If $E$ is complete (which is the case in the question) $\sum_{i\in I}\left\|\mu(A_i)\right\|_E<\infty$ is a sufficient, but not necessary, condition.
Jan 20, 2018 at 15:18 comment added Nate Eldredge @JeanDuchon: Yes, that's what was worrying me.
Jan 20, 2018 at 15:10 comment added Jean Duchon What does (1) mean exactly? A priori the sum is defined only if $\sum ||\mu(A_i)||<\infty$, right? So the $\sigma$-additivity of $\mu$ is not general. What then can follow for $|\mu|$ ?
Jan 20, 2018 at 15:03 comment added Nate Eldredge Maybe this is silly, but I'm having trouble seeing how a vector measure of unbounded variation can exist at all. Is there a standard example?
