Vitali-Hahn-Saks property in coverings of sets algebras (Q2219818)

Let \(ba(\mathcal{A})\) denote the Banach space of the real (or complex) finitely additive measures of bounded variation defined on an algebra \(\mathcal{A}\) of subsets of \(\Omega\). A subset \(\mathcal{B}\) of \(\mathcal{A}\) is a Nikodým set for \(ba(\mathcal{A})\) if each \(\mathcal{B}\)-pointwise bounded subset \(M\) of \(ba(\mathcal{A})\) is uniformly bounded on \(\mathcal{A}\); while \(\mathcal{B}\) is a strong Nikodým set for \(ba(\mathcal{A})\) if each increasing covering \((\mathcal{B}_m )_{m=1}^\infty\) of \(\mathcal{B}\) contains a \(\mathcal{B}_n\) which is a Nikodým set for \(ba(\mathcal{A})\). The subset \(\mathcal{B}\) has (VHS) property if \(\mathcal{B}\) is a Nikodým set for \(ba(\mathcal{A})\) and for every \(\mu\in ba(\mathcal{A})\) and sequence \((\mu_m)_{m=1}^\infty \subseteq ba(\mathcal{A})\) such that \(\lim_{m\rightarrow \infty} \mu_m(B) = \mu(B)\), for each \(B \in \mathcal{B}\), then \((\mu_m)_{m=1}^\infty\) weakly converges to \(\mu\). It is proved that if \((\mathcal{B}_m)_{m=1}^\infty\) is an increasing covering of \(\mathcal{A}\) that has (VHS) property and there exist a \(\mathcal{B}_p\) which is a Nikodým set for \(ba(\mathcal{A})\), then there exists \(q \geq p\) such that \(\mathcal{B}_q\) has (VHS) property. In particular, if \((\mathcal{B}_m )_{m=1}^\infty\) is an increasing covering of a \(\sigma\)-algebra then some \(\mathcal{B}_q\) has (VHS) property. In 2013 Valdivia proved that every \(\sigma\)-algebra has strong Nikodým property. Another proof of this result is presented, here. Some related questions with respect to the problem if Nikodým property in an algebra implies strong Nikodým property are also considered.
