Abstract

The paper extends the fundamental existence assertion for probability contents and measures with given marginals: the extension is from algebras to lattices, and thus is in accord with an actual trend in measure and integration. The proof of the basic theorem is a rapid application of a former Hahn–Banach type separation theorem.
