Measure algebra may refer to:

• algebra of measures on a topological group with the operation of convolution; see measure algebra (harmonic analysis);
• normed Boolean algebra, either in general or consisting of equivalence classes of measurable sets; see measure algebra (measure theory).

Measure algebra (measure theory)

Category:Classical measure theory

$\newcommand{\Om}{\Omega} \newcommand{\om}{\omega} \newcommand{\F}{\mathcal F} \newcommand{\B}{\mathcal B} \newcommand{\M}{\mathcal M} $ A measure algebra is a pair $(B,\mu)$ where $B$ is a Boolean σ-algebra and $\mu$ is a (strictly) positive measure on $B$. However, about the greatest value $\mu(\bsone_B)$ of $\mu$, assumptions differ from $\mu(\bsone_B)=1$ (that is, $\mu$ is a probability measure) in [Ha2, p. 43] and [K, Sect. 17.F] to $\mu(\bsone_B)<\infty$ (that is, $\mu$ is a totally finite measure) in [G, Sect. 2.1] to $\mu(\bsone_B)\le\infty$ in [P, Sect. 1.4C] and [Ha1, Sect. 40].
