A dichotomy for the convex spaces of probability measures

Functional Analysis 2011-04-11 v1

Abstract

We show that every nonempty compact and convex space M of probability Radon measures either contains a measure which has `small' local character in M or else M contains a measure of `large' Maharam type. Such a dichotomy is related to several results on Radon measures on compact spaces and to some properties of Banach spaces of continuous functions.
