On the use of the term "field of sets" in Maharam's papers

I am reading some papers by D. Maharam, and feel a little bit confused about her use of the term "field of sets". Nowadays, I think the term is standardly used to mean a pair $(X, \mathscr{F})$ for wh …

Every measure on a set $X$ extends to the power set of $X$: Consistent or not with ZF?

Question. Is it consistent with ZF that every (countably additive, non-negative) measure $\mu: \Sigma \to \bf R$, where $\Sigma$ is a sigma-algebra on a given set $X$, extends to a (countably addit …

A result of Sierpiński on non-atomic measures

I don't yet have a reference, but it seems the result might have been first proved by Fichtenholz and Sierpiński, independently from each other. This should be mentioned in a remark to Problem 12 in: …

Darboux property of non-atomic sigma-additive nonnegative measures equivalent to the AC?

A result commonly, and probably erroneously, attributed to W. Sierpiński is that every non-atomic, countably additive, nonnegative measure $\mu: \Sigma \to \bf R$, where $\Sigma$ is a sigma-algebra on …

Reference request: Darboux properties of real-valued set functions (measures, densities, etc.)

Fix a set $S$ and let $f: \mathcal P(S) \rightharpoonup \mathbf R$ be a real-valued partial function on the power set of $S$; denote by $\mathcal D$ the domain of $f$. We say that $f$ has: (i) the w …
