The relatively new concepts of the HenstockKurzweil and McShane integrals based on Riemann type sums are an interesting challenge in the study of integration of Banach space-valued functions. This timely book presents an overview of the concepts developed and results achieved during the past 15 years. The HenstockKurzweil and McShane integrals play the central role in the book. Various forms of the integration are introduced and compared from the viewpoint of their generality. Functional analysis is the main tool for presenting the theory of summation gauge integrals.

Preparing students for further study of both the classical works and current research, this is an accessible text for students who have had a course in real and complex analysis and understand the basic properties of L p spaces. It is sprinkled liberally with examples, historical notes, citations, and original sources, and over 450 exercises provide practice in the use of the results developed in the text through supplementary examples and counterexamples.

A breakthrough approach to the theory and applications of stochastic integration The theory of stochastic integration has become an intensely studied topic in recent years, owing to its extraordinarily successful application to financial mathematics, stochastic differential equations, and more. This book features a new measure theoretic approach to stochastic integration, opening up the field for researchers in measure and integration theory, functional analysis, probability theory, and stochastic processes. World-famous expert on vector and stochastic integration in Banach spaces Nicolae Dinculeanu compiles and consolidates information from disparate journal articles-including his own results-presenting a comprehensive, up-to-date treatment of the theory in two major parts. He first develops a general integration theory, discussing vector integration with respect to measures with finite semivariation, then applies the theory to stochastic integration in Banach spaces. Vector Integration and Stochastic Integration in Banach Spaces goes far beyond the typical treatment of the scalar case given in other books on the subject. Along with such applications of the vector integration as the Reisz representation theorem and the Stieltjes integral for functions of one or two variables with finite semivariation, it explores the emergence of new classes of summable processes that make applications possible, including square integrable martingales in Hilbert spaces and processes with integrable variation or integrable semivariation in Banach spaces. Numerous references to existing results supplement this exciting, breakthrough work.

This text provides the reader with the necessary technical tools and background to reach the frontiers of research without the introduction of too many extraneous concepts. Detailed and accessible proofs are included, as are a variety of exercises and problems. The two new chapters in this second edition are devoted to two topics of much current interest amongst functional analysts: Greedy approximation with respect to bases in Banach spaces and nonlinear geometry of Banach spaces. This new material is intended to present these two directions of research for their intrinsic importance within Banach space theory, and to motivate graduate students interested in learning more about them. This textbook assumes only a basic knowledge of functional analysis, giving the reader a self-contained overview of the ideas and techniques in the development of modern Banach space theory. Special emphasis is placed on the study of the classical Lebesgue spaces Lp (and their sequence space analogues) and spaces of continuous functions. The authors also stress the use of bases and basic sequences techniques as a tool for understanding the isomorphic structure of Banach spaces. From the reviews of the First Edition: "The authors of the book...succeeded admirably in creating a very helpful text, which contains essential topics with optimal proofs, while being reader friendly... It is also written in a lively manner, and its involved mathematical proofs are elucidated and illustrated by motivations, explanations and occasional historical comments... I strongly recommend to every graduate student who wants to get acquainted with this exciting part of functional analysis the instructive and pleasant reading of this book..."—Gilles Godefroy, Mathematical Reviews

This book offers to the reader a self-contained treatment and systematic exposition of the real-valued theory of a nonabsolute integral on measure spaces. It is an introductory textbook to Henstock-Kurzweil type integrals defined on abstract spaces. It contains both classical and original results that are accessible to a large class of readers.It is widely acknowledged that the biggest difficulty in defining a Henstock-Kurzweil integral beyond Euclidean spaces is the definition of a set of measurable sets which will play the role of 'intervals' in the abstract setting. In this book the author shows a creative and innovative way of defining 'intervals' in measure spaces, and prove many interesting and important results including the well-known Radon-Nikodým theorem.

The Henstock?Kurzweil integral, which is also known as the generalized Riemann integral, arose from a slight modification of the classical Riemann integral more than 50 years ago. This relatively new integral is known to be equivalent to the classical Perron integral; in particular, it includes the powerful Lebesgue integral. This book presents an introduction of the multiple Henstock?Kurzweil integral. Along with the classical results, this book contains some recent developments connected with measures, multiple integration by parts, and multiple Fourier series. The book can be understood with a prerequisite of advanced calculus.

This monograph provides a unified and comprehensive treatment of an order-theoretic fixed point theory in partially ordered sets and its various useful interactions with topological structures. The material progresses systematically, by presenting the preliminaries before moving to more advanced topics. In the treatment of the applications a wide range of mathematical theories and methods from nonlinear analysis and integration theory are applied; an outline of which has been given an appendix chapter to make the book self-contained. Graduate students and researchers in nonlinear analysis, pure and applied mathematics, game theory and mathematical economics will find this book useful.

This is the first book that presents the theory of stochastic integral using the generalized Riemann approach. Readers who are familiar with undergraduate calculus and want to have an easy access to the theory of stochastic integral will find most of this book pleasantly readable, especially the first four chapters. The references to the theory of classical stochastic integral and stochastic processes are also included for the convenience of readers who are familiar with the measure theoretic approach.

The book is primarily devoted to the Kurzweil-Stieltjes integral and its applications in functional analysis, theory of distributions, generalized elementary functions, as well as various kinds of generalized differential equations, including dynamic equations on time scales. It continues the research that was paved out by some of the previous volumes in the Series in Real Analysis. Moreover, it presents results in a thoroughly updated form and, simultaneously, it is written in a widely understandable way, so that it can be used as a textbook for advanced university or PhD courses covering the theory of integration or differential equations.
