Abstract: | The countable-decomposition theorem for linear functionals has become a useful tool in the theory of representing measures (see [4–7]). The original proof of this theorem was based on a rather involved study of extreme points in the state space of a convex cone. Recently M. Neumann [9] gave an independent proof using a refined form of Simons convergence lemma and Choquet's theorem. In this paper a (relatively) short proof of an extension (to a more abstract situation) of the countable-decomposition theorem is given. Furthermore a decomposition criterion is obtained which even works in the case when not all states are decomposable. All the work is based on a complete characterization of those states which are partially decomposable with respect to a given sequence of sublinear functionals. |
