  • Published : 1984.08.01

Abstract

Let X be a Banach space, and let B(X) (resp. CB(X), K(X), CV(X)) denote the family of all nonvoid (resp. closed bounded, compact, convex) subsets of X. The Kuratowski measure of noncompactness is defined by the mapping .alpha.$_{k}$: B(X).rarw. $R_{+}$ with .alpha.$_{k}$(A) = inf {r>0 vertical bar A can be covered by a finite number of sets with diameter less than r}.an r}.
