Weak and Strong Integration of vector-valued functions
This is probably an elementary question, but outside my area of expertise, and I was unable to find any suitable reference:
Suppose $f:X\to E$ is a continuous function from a compact spaces (endowed ...

Riesz's representation theorem for non-locally compact spaces
Every version of Riesz's representation theorem (the one expressing linear functionals as integrals) that I have found so far assumes that the underlying topological space is locally-compact. (For ...

On the definition of "almost-everywhere" for non-complete measure spaces
If $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu)$ is a (non-necessarily complete) measure space, we can give two different notions of a property $P(x)$ that is true almost-everywhere :
(D1) There is a measurable set $A$ ...

Representing an $L^2$-functional by a non-$L^2$-function on a dense subspace
Let $(X, \mu)$ be your favourite measure space (finite or $\sigma$-finite if you like), let $g \in L^2$ (say, the scalar field of $L^2$ is $\mathbb{R}$, though this probably doesn't matter). Let $\...

Is there a corresponding Hahn decomposition theorem for the real-valued Radon measures?
