Abstract

We introduce the countably measure determined compact spaces, originally due to M. Talagrand, which form a class that is strictly located between the class of compacta carrying a strictly positive Radon probability and the class of those spaces which carry a strictly positive Radon probability of countable (Maharam) type. Some properties of these compact spaces are studied and also some applications are given.
