Abstract: Given a probability measure space (X,Sigma,mu), it is well known that the Riesz space L0(mu) of equivalence classes of measurable functions f:XomathbfR is universally complete and the constant function mathbf1 is a weak order unit. Moreover, the linear functional Linfty(mu)omathbfR defined by fmapstointf,mathrmdmu is strictly positive and order continuous. Here we show, in particular, that the converse holds true, i.e., any universally complete Riesz space E with a weak order unit e>0 which admits a strictly positive order continuous linear functional on the principal ideal generated by e is lattice isomorphic onto L0(mu), for some probability measure space (X,Sigma,mu).
