Abstract: This paper is one in a series that investigates topological measures on locally compact spaces. A topological measure is a set function which is finitely additive on the collection of open and compact sets, inner regular on open sets, and outer regular on closed sets. We examine semisolid sets and give a way of constructing topological measures from solid-set functions on locally compact, connected, locally connected spaces. For compact spaces our approach produces a simpler method than the current one. We give examples of finite and infinite topological measures on locally compact spaces and present an easy way to generate topological measures on spaces whose one-point compactification has genus 0. Results of this paper are necessary for various methods for constructing topological measures, give additional properties of topological measures, and provide a tool for determining whether two topological measures or quasi-linear functionals are the same.


The paper investigates topological measures, that is, measures that are defined on open and closed sets of a locally compact space and which are finitely additive on the collection of open and compact sets, inner regular on open sets and outer regular on closed sets. In this context, semisolid sets and solid-set functions are studied and several examples of finite and infinite topological measures are also provided.
