A generalization of the Radon-Nikodym property in dual Banach spaces, fragmentedness, and differentiability of convex functions (Q1577649)

Let \(X\) be a real Banach space and \(X^*\) its topological dual. With respect to a bounded subset \(A\) of \(X\), the author defined \(A\)-fragmentedness of a weak\(^*\)-compact subset \(K\) of \(X^*\), \(A\)-strong measurability for \(X^*\)-valued weak\(^*\)-measurable functions and the \(A\)-RNP of weak\(^*\)-compact convex subsets of \(X^*\). (When \(A= B(X)\), the closed unit ball of \(X\), we have the usual notion of strong measurability of \(X^*\)-valued weak\(^*\)-measurable functions and that of RNP for \(X^*\), respectively.) Let \(A\) be a bounded subset of \(X\). Using another kind of dentability and constructing a basic \(K\)-valued weak\(^*\)-measurable function where \(K\) is a non-\(A\)-fragmented weak\(^*\)-compact subset of \(X^*\), the author obtains 8 equivalent conditions to ensure the \(A\)-RNP of the weak\(^*\)-closed convex hull of a given weak\(^*\)-compact subset of \(X^*\).
