In this survey the authors endeavor to give a comprehensive examination of the theory of measures having values in Banach spaces. The interplay between topological and geometric properties of Banach spaces and the properties of measures having values in Banach spaces is the unifying theme. The first chapter deals with countably additive vector measures finitely additive vector measures, the Orlicz-Pettis theorem and its relatives. Chapter II concentrates on measurable vector valued functions and the Bochner integral. Chapter III begins the study of the interplay among the Radon-Nikodym theorem for vector measures, operators on $L_1$ and topological properties of Banach spaces. A variety of applications is given in the next chapter. Chapter V deals with martingales of Bochner integrable functions and their relation to dentable subsets of Banach spaces. Chapter VI is devoted to a measure-theoretic study of weakly compact absolutely summing and nuclear operators on spaces of continuous functions. In Chapter VII a detailed study of the geometry of Banach spaces with the Radon-Nikodym property is given. The next chapter deals with the use of Radon-Nikodym theorems in the study of tensor products of Banach spaces. The last chapter concludes the survey with a discussion of the Liapounoff convexity theorem and other geometric properties of the range of a vector measure. Accompanying each chapter is an extensive survey of the literature and open problems.

International Series of Monographs in Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 95: Vector Measures focuses on the study of measures with values in a Banach space, including positive measures with finite or infinite values. This book is organized into three chapters. Chapter I covers classes of sets, set functions, variation and semi-variation of set functions, and extension of set functions from a certain class to a wider one. The integration of vector functions with respect to vector measures is reviewed in Chapter II. In Chapter III, the regular measures on a locally compact space and integral representation of the dominated operations on the space of continuous functions with compact carrier are described. This volume is intended for specialists, researchers, and students interested in vector measures.

This book provides an elementary introduction to classical analysis on normed spaces, with special attention paid to fixed points, calculus, and ordinary differential equations. It contains a full treatment of vector measures on delta rings without assuming any scalar measure theory and hence should fit well into existing courses. The relation between group representations and almost periodic functions is presented. The mean values offer an infinitedimensional analogue of measure theory on finitedimensional Euclidean spaces. This book is ideal for beginners who want to get through the basic material as soon as possible and then do their own research immediately.

This book is devoted to the development of optimal control theory for finite dimensional systems governed by deterministic and stochastic differential equations driven by vector measures. The book deals with a broad class of controls, including regular controls (vector-valued measurable functions), relaxed controls (measure-valued functions) and controls determined by vector measures, where both fully and partially observed control problems are considered. In the past few decades, there have been remarkable advances in the field of systems and control theory thanks to the unprecedented interaction between mathematics and the physical and engineering sciences. Recently, optimal control theory for dynamic systems driven by vector measures has attracted increasing interest. This book presents this theory for dynamic systems governed by both ordinary and stochastic differential equations, including extensive results on the existence of optimal controls and necessary conditions for optimality. Computational algorithms are developed based on the optimality conditions, with numerical results presented to demonstrate the applicability of the theoretical results developed in the book. This book will be of interest to researchers in optimal control or applied functional analysis interested in applications of vector measures to control theory, stochastic systems driven by vector measures, and related topics. In particular, this self-contained account can be a starting point for further advances in the theory and applications of dynamic systems driven and controlled by vector measures.

Given a ring of subsets of a non-empty set, there is a universal measure on the ring with values in an associated complete locally convex space which carries, through its typology, much of the combinatorial and measure theoretic structure of the ring. Moreover, vector measures of the ring are in 1-1 correspondence with continuous linear maps on the associated space. Several aspects of the theory of vector measures including decomposition theorems, extension theorems, Bartle-Dunford-Schwartz type theorems on weak compactness, and Pettis and Orlicz-Pettis-type theorems are studied in the unifying context of the universal measure and the associated universal representation theorem. A brief account of a similar theory for measures on abstract Boolean algebras is also given.

The title High Dimensional Probability is used to describe the many tributaries of research on Gaussian processes and probability in Banach spaces that started in the early 1970s. Many of the problems that motivated researchers at that time were solved. But the powerful new tools created for their solution turned out to be applicable to other important areas of probability. They led to significant advances in the study of empirical processes and other topics in theoretical statistics and to a new approach to the study of aspects of Lévy processes and Markov processes in general. The papers in this book reflect these broad categories. The volume thus will be a valuable resource for postgraduates and reseachers in probability theory and mathematical statistics.
