Measure and Integration

Heinz König is a distinguished analyst, who has given lasting contributions to functional analysis, distribution theory, convex analysis, mathematical economics and many other fields of mathematics. Typical of his work is the analysis or creation of basic new concepts from most original viewpoints. Heinz König gave a large number of original, short and elegant proofs of fundamental results in mathematics. Most remarkable is the new theory of measure and integration he developed in the last two decades. Born in Stettin (Szczecin/Poland), Heinz König has been a professor at the University of Saarland (Germany) since 1965 and a visiting professor at many prestigious universities around the world.

lt;p>From the reviews:

"The author took up several of the crucial topics of measure theory and developed them according to his 'new foundations of measure theory'. The author is offering twenty of his papers in this tome ... . This collection of papers along with MI are a must on the bookshelves of any measure theorist. ... On the whole the present volume will serve as a useful resource ... in MI." (K. P. S. Bhaskara Rao, Mathematical Reviews, April, 2013)

"The main body of this impressive volume is a collection of twenty-five papers whose sole author is Heinz König, an esteemed analyst. ... the volume can be recommended to all those interested in the foundations of measure theory and stochastic processes." (Zbigniew Lipecki, zbMATH, Vol. 1267, 2013)
