Abstract
We present a weaker version of the Fremlin generalized McShane integral (1995) for functions defined on a σ-finite outer regular quasi Radon measure space (S,Σ, T, µ) into a Banach space X and study its relation with the Pettis integral. In accordance with this new method of integration, the resulting integral can be expressed as a limit of McShane sums with respect to the weak topology. It is shown that a function f from S into X is weakly McShane integrable on each measurable subset of S if and only if it is Pettis and weakly McShane integrable on S. On the other hand, we prove that if an X-valued function is weakly McShane integrable on S, then it is Pettis integrable on each member of an increasing sequence (S l ) l⩾1 of measurable sets of finite measure with union S. For weakly sequentially complete spaces or for spaces that do not contain a copy of c 0, a weakly McShane integrable function on S is always Pettis integrable. A class of functions that are weakly McShane integrable on S but not Pettis integrable is included.
