Produktbeschreibung

This collection of Heinz König's publications connects to his book of 1997 "Measure and Integration" and presents significant developments in the subject from then up to the present day. The result is a consistent new version of measure theory, including selected applications. The basic step is the introduction of the inner - (bullet) and outer - (bullet) premeasures and their extension to unique maximal measures. New "envelopes" for the initial set function (to replace the traditional Carathéodory outer measures) have been created, which lead to much simpler and more explicit treatment. In view of these new concepts, the main results are unmatched in scope and plainness, as well as in explicitness. Important examples are the formation of products, a unified Daniell-Stone-Riesz representation theorem, and projective limits.

Further to the contributions in this volume, after 2011 Heinz König published two more articles that round up his work: On the marginals of probabilitycontents on lattices (Mathematika 58, No. 2, 319-323, 2012), and Measure and integration: the basic extension and representation theorems in terms of new inner and outer envelopes (Indag. Math., New Ser. 25, No. 2, 305-314, 2014).

Autorenporträt

Heinz König is a distinguished analyst, who has given lasting contributions to functional analysis, distribution theory, convex analysis, mathematical economics and many other fields of mathematics. Typical of his work is the analysis or creation of basic new concepts from most original viewpoints. Heinz König gave a large number of original, short and elegant proofs of fundamental results in mathematics. Most remarkable is the new theory of measure and integration he developed in the last two decades. Born in Stettin (Szczecin/Poland), Heinz König has been a professor at the University of Saarland (Germany) since 1965 and a visiting professor at many prestigious universities around the world.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"The author took up several of the crucial topics of measure theory and developed them according to his 'new foundations of measure theory'. The author is offering twenty of his papers in this tome ... . This collection of papers along with MI are a must on the bookshelves of any measure theorist. ... On the whole the present volume will serve as a useful resource ... in MI." (K. P. S. Bhaskara Rao, Mathematical Reviews, April, 2013)

"The main body of this impressive volume is a collection of twenty-five papers whose sole author is Heinz König, an esteemed analyst. ... the volume can be recommended to all those interested in the foundations of measure theory and stochastic processes." (Zbigniew Lipecki, zbMATH, Vol. 1267, 2013)

Man könnte meinen, dass zum Thema Maß und Integral in zahlreichen Lehrbüchern bereits alles wesentliche festgehalten ist. Der Verfasser beweist jedoch mit diesem Werk, dass das Gebiet lebt und durchaus noch grundlegend neue Einsichten möglich sind. Ich möchte daher das Buch allen an Maß- und Integrationstheorie interessierten Mathematikern nachdrücklich zur Lektüre empfehlen. S. Graf in DMV Jahresbericht Bd. 103, Heft 1, 2001.
