The linear mapping from GλG_{\lambda} into E′E' defined by g↦g⋅μg\mapsto g\cdot \mu is injective, and its image is the kernel of 1E′−λth1_{E'}-\lambda^th.

If g∈Gλg\in G_{\lambda} satisfies g⋅μ=0g\cdot \mu= 0, then formula (5) implies g=0g= 0, hence the mapping g↦g⋅μg\mapsto g\cdot \mu is injective.

Let m∈E′m\in E' be a measure belonging to the kernel of 1E′−λth1_{E'}-\lambda^th. According to relation (6), one has

∫Xf(x)dm(x)=λ∫X(∫XN(x,y)dm(x))f(y)dμ(y)(7) \int_Xf(x)dm(x) =\lambda \int_X(\int_XN(x, y)dm(x))f(y)d\mu(y) \tag{7}

for every continuous function f:X→Kf: X\rightarrow K. The measure mm is therefore equal to the measure g⋅μg\cdot \mu, where gg is the continuous function from X into K defined by

g(y)=λ∫XN(x,y)dm(x)(8) g(y) =\lambda \int_XN(x, y)dm(x) \tag{8}

for every y∈Xy\in X. Formula (8) then implies that the function gg belongs to GλG_{\lambda}.

Conversely, let g:X→Kg: X\rightarrow K be a continuous function belonging to GλG_{\lambda} and put m=g⋅μm=g\cdot \mu. For every continuous function f:X→Kf: X\rightarrow K, we therefore have

∫Xf(y)dm(y)=∫Xg(y)f(y)dμ(y) \int_Xf(y)dm(y) =\int_Xg(y)f(y)d\mu(y)
=λ∫X(∫XN(x,y)g(x)dμ(x))f(y)dμ(y) =\lambda \int_X(\int_XN(x, y)g(x)d\mu(x))f(y)d\mu(y)
=λ∫Xf(x)dm(x) =\lambda \int_Xf(x)dm(x)

so that th(m)=λm^th(m) =\lambda m. This proves Lemma 4.

By applying Proposition 4 and Theorem 4 of III, p. 78. to the endomorphism hh, one then obtains the following statements.

Bourbaki sets the proof directly after the statement, and the corpus does not separate them, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
