Abstract
Let X be an arbitrary set and L a lattice of
subsets of X. We denote by I(L) the set of those zero-one-valued nontrivial, finitely additive
measures on A(L), the algebra generated by
L, and we introduce other subsets of
I(L). We study compactness/normality
properties either relating to a single lattice L or relating
to a pair of lattices L1⊂L2 of subsets of X.
