Measures on Boolean algebras
We present a necessary and sufficient condition for a Boolean algebra to carry a finitely additive measure.
متن کاملA representation theorem for Boolean contact algebras
We prove a representation theorem for Boolean contact algebras which implies that the axioms for the Region Connection Calculus [20] (RCC) are complete for the class of subalgebras of the algebras of regular closed sets of weakly regular connected T1 spaces.
متن کاملA strong log-concavity property for measures on Boolean algebras
We introduce the antipodal pairs property for probability measures on finite Boolean algebras and prove that conditional versions imply strong forms of log-concavity. We give several applications of this fact, including improvements of some results of Wagner [15]; a new proof of a theorem of Liggett [9] stating that ultra-log-concavity of sequences is preserved by convolutions; and some progres...
متن کاملStrictly positive measures on Boolean algebras
We investigate strictly positive finitely additive measures on Boolean algebras and strictly positive Radon measures on compact zerodimensional spaces. The motivation is to find a combinatorial characterisation of Boolean algebras which carry a strictly positive finitely additive finite measure with some additional properties, such as separability or nonatomicity. A possible consistent characte...
متن کاملThe Representation of Boolean Algebras
1. Introduction. In this brief address I shall set myself a twofold aim: to review the theory of Boolean algebras, as we understand it today, and to sketch certain historical phases of its development. Although I am in no sense prepared to offer the fruits of painstaking historical research, I believe that by a few pertinent historical observations I shall be able to bring out the underlying ev...
