Let $X$ be a completely regular Hausdorff space, $E$ a boundedly complete vector lattice, $C_b\left(X\right)$ the space of all, bounded, real-valued continuous functions on $X$, $ℱ$ the algebra generated by the zero-sets of $X$, and $\mu C_b\left(X\right)\to E$ a positive linear map. First we give a new proof that $\mu$ extends to a unique, finitely additive measure $\mu ℱ\to E^{+}$ such that $\nu$ is inner regular by zero-sets and outer regular by cozero sets. Then some order-convergence theorems about nets of $E^{+}$-valued finitely additive measures on $ℱ$ are proved, which extend...

Let $𝔐$ and $\Re$ be algebras of subsets of a set $\Omega$ with $𝔐\subset \Re$, and denote by $E\left(\mu \right)$ the set of all quasi-measure extensions of a given quasi-measure $\mu$ on $𝔐$ to $\Re$. We show that $E\left(\mu \right)$ is order bounded if and only if it is contained in a principal ideal in $ba\left(\Re \right)$ if and only if it is weakly compact and $extrE\left(\mu \right)$ is contained in a principal ideal in $ba\left(\Re \right)$. We also establish some criteria for the coincidence of the ideals, in $ba\left(\Re \right)$, generated by $E\left(\mu \right)$ and $extrE\left(\mu \right)$.
