On sequential properties of spaces of measures (Q2666613)

A space is called an \(s_R\)-space if every sequentially continuous function on it, i.e., a function taking convergent sequences to convergent ones, is continuous.Then every sequentially continuous linear functional \(F\) on \(\mathcal{M}_r(X)\) (or on \(\mathcal{M}_d(X)\)) is continuous on \(\mathcal{M}_d(X)\). If, in addition, \(X\) is a space with the uniform distribution property, then the functional \(F\) is continuous on \(\mathcal{M}_r(X)\). Let \(X\) be a strongly sequentially Prohorov completely regular space in which all compact sets are metrizable. If \(X\) is not an \(s_R\)-space, then on \(\mathcal{M}_d(X)\) (and also on \(\mathcal{M}_r(X)\)) there is a discontinuous sequentially continuous linear functional.
