Abstract

Consider any set X. A finitely subadditive outer measure on P(X) is defined to be a function v from P(X) to R such that v(ϕ)=0 and v is increasing and finitely subadditive. A finitely superadditive inner measure on P(X) is defined to be a function p from P(X) to R such that p(ϕ)=0 and p is increasing and finitely superadditive (for disjoint unions) (It is to be noted that every finitely superadditive inner measure on P(X) is countably superadditive).

This paper contributes to the study of finitely subadditive outer measures on P(X) and finitely superadditive inner measures on P(X) and their measurable sets.
