This paper features strong and weak compactness in spaces of vector measures with relatively compact ranges in Banach spaces. Its tools are the measure-operator identification of [16] and [24] and the description of strong and weak compactness in spaces of compact operators in [10], [11], and [29].

Given a Banach space X and an algebra of sets, it is shown in [16] that under the usual identification via integration of X-valued bounded additive measures on with X-valued sup norm continuous linear operators on the space of -simple scalar functions, the strongly bounded, countably additive measures correspond exactly to those operators which are continuous for the coarser (locally convex) universal measure topology τ on . It is through the latter identification that the results on strong and weak compactness in [10], [11], and [29] can be applied to X-valued continuous linear operators on the generalized DF space to yield results on strong and weak compactness in spaces of vector measures.
