A note on integral-convexity in Banach spaces (Q884391)

The paper under review is an attempt to generalize the concepts of integral-convexity and integral-extreme point introduced in [\textit{J.-Y.~Wang} and \textit{Y.-M. Ma}, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 295, No.~1, 211--224 (2004; Zbl 1057.46006)] by using the Pettis integral instead of the Bochner integral. However, that paper is not of very high quality, and thus the author of the paper under review probably has been a bit misled. For example, Corollary~13 is a special case of the standard result called Lemma~14. From Lemma~14, the author proves that, for closed convex sets, extreme points are Pettis-integral-extreme. But then Theorem~16 follows, since weakly compact sets always have extreme points. Also, the author calls the fact that continuous functionals attain their infima on a weakly compact set James's characterization of weakly compact sets. Such examples of weakness should have been seen (and eliminated) by the reviewer or editor. The paper ends with an example of a set which is convex (and integral-convex in a certain sense) without being Pettis-integral-convex.
