On weak convergence in $\mathcal{M}\left({H}\right)$: relaxation of a sufficient condition

TL;DR: Theorem 2.2 of Majumdar (Sankhyā 67:670-673, 2005) obtained two conditions that are necessary and jointly sufficient for weak convergence in this paper.
Abstract: Theorem 2.2 of Majumdar (Sankhyā 67:670–673, 2005) obtained two conditions that are necessary and jointly sufficient for weak convergence in \( {\mathcal{M}}\left({H}\right)\). In this note we significantly relax the second condition while maintaining the joint sufficiency.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an overview on probability measures in a metric space and present a smaller class of measures on metric spaces called tight measures, which have the property that they are determined by their values for compact sets.
Abstract: This chapter provides an overview on probability measures in a metric space. A measure μ on a metric space means a countably additive nonnegative set function μ on the class of Borel sets B x with the property that μ ( X ) = 1 . In a metric space, a measure μ is uniquely determined by its values for the topologically important sets such as closed sets or open sets. The chapter also presents a smaller class of measures on metric spaces called the tight measures. Tight measures have the property that they are determined by their values for compact sets. A measure μ on a metric space X is said to be tight if for each ɛ > 0, there exists a compact set K 2 ⊊ X such that μ ( X − κ ɛ ) ɛ . A very extensive class of metric spaces has the property that every measure is tight.
