We elaborate, strengthen, and generalize known representation theorems by different authors for regular operators on vector and Banach lattices. Our main result asserts, in particular, that every regular linear operator T acting from a vector lattice E with the principal projection property to a Dedekind complete vector lattice F, which is an ideal of some order continuous Banach lattice G, admits a unique representation T=Ta+Tc$T = T_a + T_c$, where Ta$T_a$ is the sum of an absolutely order summable family of disjointness preserving operators and Tc$T_c$ is an order narrow (= diffuse) operator. Our main contribution is waiver of the order continuity assumption on T. In proofs, we use new techniques that allow obtaining more general results for a wider class of orthogonally additive operators, which has somewhat different order structure than the linear subspace of linear operators.

In this note we prove that positive multi-valued operators on Riesz spaces which are everywhere defined are always continuous. Further, we prove that the sum of two positive relations having the same null part is itself positive. This result allows us to study the domination problem in the class of positive relations.

Recently, the different types of unbounded convergences (u o , u n , u a w , u a w ∗) in Banach lattices were studied. In this paper, we study the continuous functionals with respect to unbounded convergences. We first characterize the continuity of linear functionals for these convergences. Then we define the corresponding unbounded dual spaces and get their exact form. Based on these results, we discuss order continuity and reflexivity of Banach lattices. Some related results are obtained as well. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
