Maharam’s problem

چکیده
We construct an exhaustive submeasure that is not equivalent to a measure. This solves problems of J. von Neumann (1937) and D. Maharam (1947).

On Submeasures on Boolean Algebras
We present a collection of observations and results concerning submeasures on Boolean algebras. They are all motivated by Maharam’s problem and Talagrand’s construction that solved it.
متن کاملRemarks on measurable Boolean algebras and sequential cardinals
The paper offers a generalization of Kalton–Roberts’ theorem on uniformly exhaustive Maharam’s submeasures to the case of arbitrary sequentially continuous functionals. Applying the result one can reduce the problem of measurability of sequential cardinals to the question whether sequentially continuous functionals are uniformly exhaustive.
متن کاملWhat Does a Hidden Variable Look Like?∗
The hidden-variable question is whether or not correlations that are observed in the outcomes of an experiment can be explained via introduction of additional (“hidden”) variables which are unobserved by the experimenter. The question arises most famously in quantum mechanics (QM), but can also be asked in the classical realm. The nature of the experiment will tell us how to model the observabl...
متن کاملVon Neumann’s Problem and Large Cardinals
It is a well known problem of Von Neumann whether the countable chain condition and weak distributivity of a complete Boolean algebra imply that it carries a strictly positive probability measure. It was shown recently by Balcar–Jech–Pazák and Velickovic that it is consistent with ZFC, modulo the consistency of a supercompact cardinal, that every ccc weakly distributive complete Boolean algebra...
متن کاملSome Results about Set-Valued Complementarity Problem
This paper is devoted to consider the notions of complementary problem (CP) and set-valued complementary problem (SVCP). The set-valued complementary problem is compared with the classical single-valued complementary problem. Also, the solution set of the set-valued complementary problem is characterized. Our results illustrated by some examples. This paper is devoted to co...
