According to \textit{T. Ya. Azizov} and \textit{I. S. Iokhvidov} [``Foundations of the theory of linear operators in spaces with an indefinite metric'' (in Russian), Moscow (1986; Zbl 0607.47031)] a \(J\)-space first of all is a space \(\mathcal H\) with an indefinite metric \(\langle x,x\rangle\) and a \(\mathbb{Z}_2\)-grading, i.e. a decomposition \({\mathcal H}_+\oplus{\mathcal H}_-\) into subspaces with positive resp. negative metric. Spaces with this characteristics are often referred to as Krein spaces. One may choose an operator \(J\) such that \((x,y)=\langle Jx,y\rangle\) turns \(\mathcal H\) into a pre-Hilbert space. As for a \(J\)-space, one assumes that \(\mathcal H\) is in fact a Hilbert space. Let \(P\) be the set of \(J\)-selfadjoint bounded projections \(p\) on \(\mathcal H\). Then \(\mu:P\to\mathbb{R}\) is called a measure if \(\mu(p)=\sum \mu(p_i)\) for any (countable) partition \(p=\sum p_i\), where \(p_i\) is some orthogonal family. The measure is bounded if \(\mu(p)< c|p|\) for some constant \(c\). One result is the following: assuming that \(\dim{\mathcal H}_\pm=\infty\), then the measure \(\mu\) is bounded iff \(\mu(p)= \text{tr}(Ap)\) for some \(J\)-selfadjoint nuclear operator \(A\). But the main result is: In an infinite-dimensional \(J\)-space, every measure is bounded. The proof is rather lengthy and uses properties of frame functions (a frame function \(f:S\to\mathbb{R}\) of weight \(w\), where \(S\) is the unit sphere of some Hilbert space, satisfies \(\sum f(e_i)=W\) for any orthonormal basis \(e_i\)).
