Abstract

Under Jensen's diamond principle \diamondsuit, we construct a simple Efimov space KK whose space of nonatomic probability measures Pna(K)P_{na}(K) is first-countable and sequentially compact. These two properties of Pna(K)P_{na}(K) imply that the space of probability measures P(K)P(K) on KK is selectively sequentially pseudocompact and the Banach space C(K)C(K) of continuous functions on KK has the Gelfand-Phillips property. We show also that any sequence of probability measures on KK that converges to an atomic measure converges in norm, and any sequence of probability measures on KK converging to zero in sup-norm has a subsequence converging to a nonatomic probability measure.
