AbstractUsing ideas of McShane ([4, Example 3]), a detailed development of the Riemann integral in a locally compact Hausdorff space X was presented in [1]. There the Riemann integral is derived from a finitely additive volume v defined on a suitable semiring of subsets of X. Vis-à-vis the Riesz representation theorem ([8, Theorem 2.141), the integral generates a Riesz measure v in X, whose relationship to the volume v was carefully investigated in [1, Section 7].In the present paper, we use the same setting as in [1] but produce the measure directly without introducing the Riemann integral. Specifically, we define an outer measure by means of gages and introduce a very intuitive concept of gage measurability that is different from the usual Carathéodory définition. We prove that if the outer measure is σ-finite, the resulting measure space is identical to that defined by means of the Carathéodory technique, and consequently to that of [1, Section 7]. If the outer measure is not σ-finite, we investigate the gage measurability of Carathéodory measurable sets that are σ-finite. Somewhat surprisingly, it turns out that this depends on the axioms of set theory.

AbstractWe present a systematic and self-contained exposition of the generalized Riemann integral in a locally compact Hausdorff space, and we show that it is equivalent to the Perron and variational integrals. We also give a necessary and sufficient condition for its equivalence to the Lebesgue integral with respect to a suitably chosen measure.

We consider Borel measures on a locally compact Hausdorff space whose values are linear functionals on a locally convex cone. We define integrals for cone-valued functions and verify that continuous linear functionals on certain spaces of continuous cone-valued functions endowed with an inductive limit topology may be represented by such integrals.

In the potential theory with respect to a non-symmetric function-kernel, the following theorem is obtained by M. Kishi ([3]).Let X be a locally compact Hausdorff space and G be a lower semi-continuous function-kernel on X. Assume that G(x, x)>0 for any x in X and that G and the adjoint kernel Ğ of G satisfy “the continuity principle”.

The countability index, C(S), of a semigroup S is the smallest integer n, if it exists, such that every countable subset of S is contained in a subsemigroup with n generators. If no such integer exists, define C(S) = ∞. The density index, D(S), of a topological semigroup S is the smallest integer n, if it exists, such that S contains a dense subsemigroup with n generators. If no such integer exists, define D(S) = ∞. S(X) is the topological semigroup of all continuous selfmaps of the locally compact Hausdorff space X where S(X) is given the compact-open topology. Various results are obtained about C(S(X)) and D(S(X)). For example, if X consists of a finite number (< 1) of components, each of which is a compact N-dimensional subspace of Euclidean Nspace and has the internal extension property and X is not the two point discrete space. Then C(S(X)) exceeds two but is finite. There are additional results for C(S(X)) and similar results for D(S(X)).

By constructing the projective lift of a dp-epimorphism, we find a covariant functor E from the category Cd of regular Hausdorff spaces and continuous dp-epimorphisms to its coreflective subcategory εd consisting of projective objects of Cd We use E to show that E(X/G) is homeomorphic to EX/G whenever G is a properly discontinuous group of homeomorphisms of a locally compact Hausdorff space X and X/G is an object of Cd.

In 1961, Wang showed that ifAis the commutativeC*-algebraC0(X)withXa locally compact Hausdorff space, thenM(C0(X))≅Cb(X). Later, this type of characterization of multipliers of spaces of continuous scalar-valued functions has also been generalized to algebras and modules of continuous vector-valued functions by several authors. In this paper, we obtain further extension of these results by showing thatHomC0(X,A)(C0(X,E),C0(X,F))≃Cs,b(X,HomA(E,F)),whereEandFarep-normed spaces which are also essential isometric leftA-modules withAbeing a certain commutativeF-algebra, not necessarily locally convex. Our results unify and extend several known results in the literature.

As proved in [16], there exists a duality ?t between the category HLC of locally compact Hausdorff spaces and continuous maps, and the category DHLC of complete local contact algebras and appropriate morphisms between them. In this paper, we introduce the notions of weight wa and of dimension dima of a local contact algebra, and we prove that if X is a locally compact Hausdorff space then w(X) = wa(?t(X)), and if, in addition, X is normal, then dim(X) = dima(?t(X)).

In this paper we show that the Banach algebra C0(X), where X is a locally compact Hausdorff space, is generated by idempotents if and only if X is totally disconnected.

The commutative Gelfand-Naimark Theorem says that any commutative C*-algebra A is isomorphic to the ring C0(M, C) of all continuous complex-valued functions tending to zero outside of compact sets of a locally compact Hausdorff space M. A very important part of this theorem is an intrinsic and also a complete characterization of M as exactly the primitive ideal space of A in the hull-kernel (or weak-star) topology. In the non-commutative case, A ≌ Γ0(M, E)—the ring of sections tending to zero outside of compact subsets of a locally compact Hausdorff space M with values in the stalks or fibers E.
