Chapter 2

Basic Concepts and Results

Antonio Boccuto and Xenofon Dimitriou

Abstract

In this chapter we recall the fundamental concepts, tools and results which will be used throughout the book, that is filters/ideals, filter/ideal convergence, lattice groups, Riesz spaces and properties of (l)-group-valued measures, and some related fundamental techniques in this setting, like for instance different kinds of convergence, the Fremlin lemma, the Maeda-Ogasawara-Vulikh representation theorem, the Stone Isomorphism technique and the existence of suitable countably additive restrictions of finitely additive strongly bounded measures. We will prove some main properties of filter/ideal convergence and of lattice group-valued measures.
