Integration with respect to finitely additive measures (Q4026059)

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0746.00055.] Throughout, a measure is a finitely additive real-valued function of bounded variation whose domain is an algebra of sets. This paper is an investigation of integration of (mainly) real-valued functions with respect to such measures viewed from the perspective of Riesz spaces. Specific topics addressed include: extensions of measures including a characterization of the algebra of measurable sets determined by the outer measure of a measure; a Riemann integral for measures and a characterization of Riemann integrable functions; the Dunford integral, the manner in which it extends the Riemann integral, and the Beppo Levi theorem with applications to a functional calculus; the set \(A_ \mu\) of \(\mu\)-absolutely continuous measures; the Radon-Nikodým theorem, first abstractly in the context of Kakutani's \(L\) and \(M\) spaces, then for arbitrary \(\mu\)-absolutely continuous measures in which case the density is in general an order continuous linear functional defined on an order dense ideal of \(A_ \mu\) which is \(\mu\)-integrable in a refinement sense; \({\mathcal L}^ p\) spaces; and necessary and sufficient conditions for the norm-completeness of \({\mathcal L}^ 1\). This is a very full paper drawing many connections and parallels between various integrals and approaches to integration involving bounded finitely additive measures.
