Abstract

Let X be a completely regular Hausdorff space, E a real normed space, and let C b ( X , E ) be the space of all bounded continuous E -valued functions on X . We develop the general duality theory of the space C b ( X , E ) endowed with locally solid topologies; in particular with the strict topologies β z ( X , E ) for z = σ , τ , t . As an application, we consider criteria for relative weak-star compactness in the spaces of vector measures M z ( X , E ' ) for z = σ , τ , t . It is shown that if a subset H of M z ( X , E ' ) is relatively σ ( M z ( X , E ' ) , C b ( X , E ) ) -compact, then the set conv ( S ( H ) ) is still relatively σ ( M z ( X , E ' ) , C b ( X , E ) ) -compact ( S ( H ) = the solid hull of H in M z ( X , E ' ) ). A Mackey-Arens type theorem for locally convex-solid topologies on C b ( X , E ) is obtained.

We develop the general duality theory of the space $C_b(X,E)$ endowed with locally solid topologies; in particular with the strict topologies $\beta _z(X,E)$ for $z=\sigma , \tau , t$. As an application, we consider criteria for relative weak-star compactness in the spaces of vector measures $M_z(X,E^{\prime })$ for $z=\sigma , \tau , t$. It is shown that if a subset $H$ of $M_z(X,E^{\prime })$ is relatively $\sigma (M_z(X,E^{\prime }), C_b(X,E))$-compact, then the set $\operatorname{conv} (S(H))$ is still relatively $\sigma (M_z(X,E^{\prime }), C_b(X,E))$-compact ($S(H)=$ the solid hull of $H$ in $M_z(X,E^{\prime })$).
