Radon measure with lebesgue decomposition

measure-theory

Assume that we have a finite Radon measure $\mu$ on a LCH space $X$.
Let $M(X)$ denote the space of all complex regular Borel measure on $X$ with norm $\lVert v \rVert = |v|(X)$. Let $v \in M(X)$ with lebesgue decomposition $v_a$ and $v_b$ respect to $\mu$. Clearly, $v_a$ and $v_b$ are also Radon measures. I'm curious that do we have $\lVert v \rVert = \lVert v_a \rVert + \lVert v_b \rVert$?

Thanks.

I suppose $\nu_a$ stands for the absolutely continuous part and $\nu_b$ for then singular part.

$\|\mu+\nu\|=\|\mu\|+\|\nu\|$ if $\mu \perp \nu$. In Lebesgue decompostion we do have $\nu_a \perp \nu_b$. Hence, $\|\nu\|=\|\nu_a\|+\|\nu_b\|$.
