It is set in small type as supplementary.

For every t∈Rt \in \mathbf{R} let f(t)f(t) be the continuous function x↦exp⁡(−2πitx)x \mapsto \exp(-2\pi i tx), which is an element of the space C=CC(R)\mathscr{C} = \mathscr{C}_C(\mathbf{R}) of continuous complex functions on R\mathbf{R}. The space C\mathscr{C} is in duality with the space C′=CC′(R)\mathscr{C}' = \mathscr{C}'_C(\mathbf{R}) of complex measures on R\mathbf{R} with compact support; the space K=KC(R)\mathscr{K} = \mathscr{K}_C(\mathbf{R}) of continuous complex functions with compact support may be canonically identified with a subspace of C′\mathscr{C}', by identifying a function φ∈K\varphi \in \mathscr{K} with the measure having density φ\varphi with respect to Lebesgue measure. One denotes by D\mathscr{D} the subspace of K\mathscr{K} formed by the indefinitely differentiable complex functions with compact support. Show that, when C\mathscr{C} is equipped with the topology σ(C,C′)\sigma(\mathscr{C}, \mathscr{C}') or with the topology σ(C,K)\sigma(\mathscr{C}, \mathscr{K}), ff is not scalarly integrable for the Lebesgue measure μ\mu; however, for the topology σ(C,D)\sigma(\mathscr{C}, \mathscr{D}), ff is scalarly μ\mu-integrable and ∫fdμ\int f d\mu is the measure ε0\varepsilon_0; prove that in this case, the conditions of Prop. 7 are verified.*
