The Space of Complex Measures
The sum of two complex measures is a complex measure, as is the product of a complex measure by a complex number. That is to say, the set of all complex measures on a measure space (X, Σ) forms a vector space. Moreover, the total variation ||μ|| defined as
is a norm in respect to which the space of complex measures is a Banach space.
