Nonequivalence of various definitions of differentiability directions for vector measures (Q1810220)

The role of differentiability directions for the interpolation between the structures of measures and spaces is well known. For scalar measures, directional differentiability can be defined with respect to the following four topologies: (a) the topology \(\tau_f\) of weak convergence of measures, (b) the topology \(\tau_s\) of convergence on all measurable sets, (c) the topology \(\tau_v\) of convergence in variation, (d) the topology \(\tau_{sv}\) of convergence with respect to semivariation. The goal of the author is to prove that, for vector measures, all four definitions, that is, (a)--(d) are generally nonequivalent, and that for measures with values in Banach spaces with the Radon-Nikodym property, the definitions of differentiability in the topologies \(\tau_s\) and \(\tau_v\) (and hence, in \(\tau_{sv})\) are equivalent.
