Abstract

Let 1 and 2 be lattices of subsets of a nonempty set X. Suppose 2 coallocates 1 and 1 is a subset of 2. We show that any 1-regular finitely additive measure on the algebra generated by 1 can be uniquely extended to an 2-regular measure on the algebra generated by 2. The case when 1 is not necessary contained in 2, as well as the measure enlargement problem are considered. Furthermore, some discussions on normal lattices and separation of lattices are also given.
