Abstract

For a locally compact group G, we introduce and study a class of locally convex topologies τ on the measure algebra M(G) of G. In particular, we show that the strong dual of (M(G),τ) can be identified with a closed subspace of the Banach space M(G)∗; we also investigate some properties of the locally convex space (M(G),τ).

Keywords: measure algebra; strict topology; locally compact group; locally convex space.
