We prove that a continuous image of a Radon-Nikodým compact of weight less than b is Radon-Nikodým compact. As a Banach space counterpart, subspaces of Asplund generated Banach spaces of density character less than b are Asplund generated. In this case, in addition, there exists a subspace of an Asplund generated space which is not Asplund generated and which has density character exactly b.

For a Banach space $E$ and a probability space $(X,𝒜,\lambda )$, a new proof is given that a measure $\mu :𝒜\to E$, with $\mu \ll \lambda$, has RN derivative with respect to $\lambda$ iff there is a compact or a weakly compact $C\subset E$ such that ${\left|\mu \right|}_C:𝒜\to [0,\infty ]$ is a finite valued countably additive measure. Here we define ${\left|\mu \right|}_C\left(A\right)=sup\{{\sum }_k|\langle \mu \left(A_k\right),f_k\rangle \left|\right\}$ where $\left\{A_k\right\}$ is a finite disjoint collection of elements from $𝒜$, each contained in $A$, and $\left\{f_k\right\}\subset E^{\text{'}}$ satisfies ${sup}_k\left|f_k\left(C\right)\right|\le 1$. Then the result is extended to the case when $E$ is a Frechet space.

A family of compact spaces containing continuous images of Radon-Nikod’ym compacta is introduced and studied. A family of Banach spaces containing subspaces of Asplund generated (i.e., GSG) spaces is introduced and studied. Further, for a continuous image of a Radon-Nikod’ym compact $K$ we prove: If $K$ is totally disconnected, then it is Radon-Nikod’ym compact. If $K$ is adequate, then it is even Eberlein compact.

The Radon-Nikodým property was introduced to describe those Banach spaces X for which all operators acting between L1 and X have a representation function. These spaces can be characterized in terms of martingales, as those spaces in which every uniformly bounded martingale converges. In the present work we study some classes of operators defined upon their behaviour with respect to the convergence of such martingales. We prove that an operator preserves the non-convergence of uniformly bounded...

We get a characterization of PCP in Banach spaces with shrinking basis. Also, we prove that the Radon-Nikodym and Krein-Milman properties are equivalent for closed, convex and bounded subsets of some Banach spaces with shrinking basis.
