Theory of Random Sets Some corrections to the second edition: Example 1.1.10: The conclusion is correct under additional assumption that K is connected (noticed by Samopriya Basu). Proposition 1.1.53: Here the family K_0 should also contain unions of all relatively compact sets from the base of topology, e.g. union of balls in Euclidean space. (Correction provided by Daniel Hug). Theorem 1.4.25 was cited from Teran [834]. The author informed me that later that M.Dumav and M.Stinchcombe (Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 2016) provided a counterexample. Still it is not clear what is a gap in the proof by Teran [834]. Theorem 3.1.31 was cited from Teran [841]. The author informed that this result holds only assuming that the dual space is separable. Minor misprints p.468, line 2: In the second line of Example 5.1.29 x should be replaced by t.
